For Erekuri/Erehisto week 2014 (I KNOW IT WAS A YEAR AGO ;A;) day 5/7
Disclaimer: I do not own Shingeki no Kyojin and all its characters
Eren walked out of the kitchen with a bag of chips in his hands to see Historia Reiss still sitting in his living room, playing with the straps of her backpack. He remembered Historia was in his home because she was Mikasa's lab partner and the two were going to work on a project together. He looked at the time; Mikasa won't be home for another twenty-five minutes due to volleyball practice, making Historia very early.
"Want something to eat while you wait?" Eren offered, shaking the bag of chips in front of her.
"Oh, I'll be okay," she said, smiling at him.
Everybody always gossips about Historia being the cutest girl in school, with a smile that can steal your heart. He'll admit she is very pretty, he's just not into the kindness-and-big-heart-for-everyone spheal of her personality.
"Well, Mikasa won't be back from practice for a while. Wanna play a video game till then?" he asked, setting the chips on the coffee table in front of her.
"Sure," she said, removing her bag from her lap.
Eren looked through the little cabinet shelf that held all their games before pulling out one container. "Ever played Super Smash Bros.?"
"Not really."
"Oh then you'll love it." He inserted the game and handed Historia the second pair of controllers. "It'll be hard at first, but eventually you'll get it." Plus I can finally beat someone at this game other than Connie.
"I thought you said you never played this game!" Eren said as big K.O. letters flashed on the screen for the third time. Princess Peach swayed back and forth, jumping with her frilly pink umbrella in hand. Historia only laughed and shrugged; Eren narrowed his eyes and turned back to the screen. "Best four out of seven."
Mikasa opened the door to her house, throwing her gym bag in the closet.
"Sorry I'm late Historia—" she said as she entered the living room, expecting to see notebooks and textbooks all over the coffee table. Instead she sees her brother Eren furiously punching the buttons on the controller of her Wii and throwing profanities everywhere, while her poor science partner sat next to him, tapping the buttons as fast as she can. Historia looked on the verge of tears.
"Mikasa," she pleaded. "Save me."
