Chapter 1: Her little angel
A pretty six year old blonde boy in a black and blue Sailor outfit with black stockings squealed in delight as he sat in his lavish room and played with his fluffy white pet rabbit. The rabbit hopped in his lap, stood on his fuzzy hind legs , and nuzzled his nose into the blonde's face. "You're such a sweetie Snowball, I love you so much" he said petting the bunny rabbit. Armin watched as Snowball bounced off of his lap and hopped about on the royal blue carpet.
It was at that moment when a cute short little maid in a little black and white frilly uniform,short Curly red hair, blushing cheeks with freckles and lipstick entered the room carrying a tray of cookies and warm milk. "Armin are you doing alright up here sweetie?" She asked. "Yes Miss Rose" the boy now known as Armin replied. "Would you like some milk and cookies dear?" Rose asked.
Armin nodded cutely and eagerly patted the spot on the carpet next to him." Won't you please have some with me?" He asked politely looking up at her. Pink hearts appeared in Rose's eyes at this offer. "Oh dear, bless your heart! You truly are an angel!" She sighed. "But you know I have to clean though" she said. "l can help you Rose! Please?" He pleaded.
Rose thought about it for a moment but eventually gave in. One little snack break with the mistress's s son wouldn't hurt right? "Okay then" and with that she sat down with Armin and Snowball and started to eat a few cookies with him. A moment later, a very gorgeous woman stood in the middle of the doorway smiling at the scene before her. "Having fun up here?" She chuckled.
"Yes Mommy" Armin smiled. "Oh! Pardon me , I was just checking on him." Rose said sheepishly. "It's quite alright , there's nothing wrong with having a little Snack every now and then but I thought I told you Rose, to call me Caroline "she said." You don't have to be so formal with me" The woman now known as Armin's mother smiled. She had a rather exaggerated hourglass figure,large breasts, slender legs, and extremely long flowing blonde hair that was held up in elegant pigtails in silky blue ribbons with Armin's bangs in the front.
But the one thing that stood out the most about her was her face. Her and her Son had so much of a striking resemblance to each other it was almost scary. The only real difference was that she always wore white powder on her face, red lipstick on her lips, and that she had a beauty mark on her left cheek .Aside from that they were identical.
"Mommy can i see what you're making in the attic today?" Armin asked tugging on his mother's silky gown."Of course sweetie" picking up her little blonde, she led him to the attic. It looked more like a cozy little workshop than it did an attic. Ms. Arlert wasn't just beautiful, but she was also a very successful entrepreneur. It was here in the attic where she worked on her vast collections of bisque dolls and made a fortune.
They all varied in shapes and sizes, and they were all ball jointed with big beautiful glass eyes and thick lashes. Some had short silky hair, some had long flowing hair and there were some with extra Curly bouncy hair like his mother. Most of them were small, but there were times where she would make giant life sized dolls for a very high price.
So because of this profession, It caused the Arlerts to become quite wealthy. Armin looked in awe at his mother's creations. It never got old to him whenever he pulled up a seat next to her and watched his mother
Work her magic. He was very proud to have a mom like her. His gaze shifted to his mother's work table sitting in the back of the room and looked up at her. "Is that your new one?" He asked pointing to the little doll laying on the table.
"Mmhmm, I'm making this one for Mrs. Jeager" Caroline replied. "She'll be over here in a little while with Eren and I can't wait to give it to her!" She said. "Eren's coming over!?" Armin beamed. "Yup!" Mrs. Arlert replied chuckling softly. Him and Eren were the best of friends, so they would always get excited whenever they would come over each other's houses and play for hours. Sometimes they would just hang out quietly enjoying the other's company while eating snacks in front of the fireplace with Snowball.
"Want to help me pick out an outfit for her?" Caroline asked gesturing to the doll. Armin nodded eagerly and scampered over to the doll. It looked exactly like a miniature version of Eren's mother Carla, except this one had much more curlier hair than her human counterpart. Seeing a rack full of lolita dresses, he selected a pretty jade green one with fancy white frills and a matching white bonnet.
"How about this one?" he asked handing it to her. "Excellent choice Armin" she replied taking the outfit and putting it on mini Carla. "You have a very good eye for fashion" Caroline then took a pair of white bloomers and thigh high stockings and put it underneath the doll's frilly dress. Another thing about Caroline was that she didn't just make and sell dolls for a living, but she was also a seamstress that designed and sold doll clothes as well.
"Now all she needs is some shoes and she'll be ready to go" Caroline said. Armin nodded and picked out a pair of black Mary Jane's and carefully placed them on the doll's feet. "There we go, all done" Caroline said proudly. Picking the little doll up she winded up the key in her back and set it down on the floor in front of Armin, waiting.
Mini Carla just sat there for a moment before the sound of light machinery could be heard. The doll's body began to twitch for a minute before it stood up on it's legs, looked up at Armin, and smiled at him while curtseying in a very robotic fashion. Armin grinned and picked up the doll, giving it a little hug."mommy she's so cute!" Armin said handing the doll to his mother."thank you but that's only because you helped me with her sweetheart" she said pinching his cheek."you're such a sweet little doll you know that? You're my most precious doll of them all" she cooed.
Armin blushed at this compliment and giggled. It was at that moment when Rose had came up to the attic to fetch the two blondes. "Mrs. Jeager and Eren are here you two, they're waiting for you in the dining room" She said. Armin smiled in glee and bolted downstairs to the dining room. "Armin sweetie be careful!" Caroline called following him. The last thing she wanted was for him to trip down the stairs and end up with a nasty scratch or a bruise on his perfect face.
Eren was currently sitting in the dining room with his mother, eating a lollipop and waiting for Armin. He had bright green cat like eyes, mangy short messy brown hair, and healthy tan skin. He was wearing a black sailor suit similar to Armin's instead his version was more boyish and casual and a lot less frilly and girly. Instead of having light blue designs and a ribbon like Armin, he had dark green designs with a green tie instead.
His eyes lit up when he saw Armin come down stairs. "ARMIN!" Eren yelled charging towards the boy. Armin barely had time to say hello before he was knocked backwards to the ground on his butt with the mangy Eren on top of him, hugging him and practically squeezing the life out of him. "It's nice to see you too Eren" Armin croaked.
"Eren!" His mother Carla scolded. "Not so rough!" She said. "And hello Armin, how are you today?" She asked crouching down and pinching his cheek."I'm doing fine , thank you for asking" he said sweetly. Carla smiled and patted his head "so polite!" She giggled."Eren you could learn a thing or two about manners from Armin" she half joked. Eren just rolled his eyes at this and went back to his lollipop.
"Hello Carla," Caroline said greeting her friend. Just like Eren and Armin, Carla and Caroline were best friends too. "Hi Caroline she replied giving her friend a hug. Despite being pretty herself, Carla couldn't help but feel a twinge of jealousy with her friend when she felt Caroline's huge melons squish against her.(Carla's a C-cup in here while Caroline's a triple-D)"I have a present for you" Caroline smiled holding something behind her back.
"For me?What is it?" Carla asked. Caroline held out Mini Carla in front of her for Carla to see."I know you're birthday isn't for another two days but I just had to give it to you"Carla's eyes glimmered as she eyed the doll."she's so beautiful! " Carla said in delight. "Thank you, but Armin helped pick out the clothes" she said. "Well thank you both" Carla said looking to Armin as well. Armin smiled bashfully at her and watched as her and Caroline disappeared into the kitchen to help Rose prepare lunch.
"Hey Armin.." Eren said. "Yes Eren?" Armin asked looking over to him. "Your mom is hot" The brunette said blushing. "EREN!" Armin shrieked "that's my MOM you're talking about!" Eren licked his lollipop still blushing. "But it's true! She is hot!" he continued. "So is your maid! can we switch places? All my mommy does is nag" "Oh my God.." Armin groaned. "Come to think of it, you're mommy still baby feeds you right?" Eren asked. "OH MY GOD STOP!" Armin groaned again, his face now red with embarrassment.
"God you're so lucky you get to go near her big bouncy-" Armin pimp smacked Eren in the back of the head causing the boy to whine and joined the two women in the kitchen grumbling in embarrassment. "Oww you didn't have to hit me so hard.." Eren pouted rubbing the back of the head. Armin just rolled his eyes and went up to Carla and Caroline.
"Do you two need help with anything?" He asked. "Oh no dear, we can take care of everything from here" Caroline smiled. "You and Eren go keep each other company" she said. "Okay!" Armin said. "Come on Eren!" The two boys bolted up to Armin's room to go play with Snowball. "He is so precious!" Carla smiled. "Yes.." Caroline smiled dreamily "My most precious doll of them all..."
