( btw, the beds in the room are lined up like the one's in Madeline)
"Ughhhhh." wined a wine. "Uughhhhhhh." The noise got louder, just above a whisper. "Uggghhhhhhhhh!-"
"Eren! Shut the fuck!" Jean sat up from his bed and yelled. Jean's bed was across from eren's bed. "Go to sleep!"
"But i'm not tried~" Eren wined as he stretched out on his bed. Jean growled. Marco heard the commotion and sat up, he too, wasn't asleep.
"Well, why don't I punch your lights out!" Jean yell-whispered over to eren. Eren growled at him, now armin popped up.
"Hey, hey, hey, no need to get physical." Armin nervously laughed. Eren and Jean just looked at each other. Jean only recently arrived at orphanage, and he had already made an enemy. Eren tried to be nice to him, at first, then when he started hitting on his best friend, he threw being " nice" out the window. Now, cause of the commotion, Mikasa and her friend, annie , sat up on their beds in the covers.
"If you can't sleep, why don't you go cuddle up with your " boyfriend" !" Jean teased. Eren's ears went red, and slid out of bed while jean did the same. They were only 13, so this was a normal thing. They walked to the center of the room and stared at each other. Now, more of the kids woke up. A silly boy , named Connie and his best friend, Sasha , had roused from their sleep to see what was going on.
"He's not my boyfriend! He doesn't even like me!" Eren retorted in a slightly loud manner. It was loud enough to wake up Bertol, who woke up riener. "He like's petra!" Petra was on of the kids that came and helped out at the orphanage. Eren liked her, because she was sweet and kind and didn't tell anyone when he took cookies from the cookie jar without asking.
"Ha! Your right, why would he want a shitty screw up like you! He probably is dating that petra chick anyway." Jean smirked and poked eren's chest. Eren just growled and looked down, not wanting to cause a scene. "Beside's, that grouchy. " Eren flinched, "Old." Eren tried to control himself. "Vampire looking ass. " Eren clinched his fist. "Shorty is not a man. He's a women with the way he cl-AH!" Jean landed on his back and felt a foot on his chest.
"Don't you EVER talk about Levi-sama like that, EVER!" Eren stared down at him with his sea-colored eyes in which, you could see a little golden in there somewhere in the right amount of light, and growled. Eren was fine with jean making fun of him, because he makes fun of him too, but when you make fun of Levi, his crush, he goes ballistic.
The knob on the room's door turned and the two pre-teen's scrambled to their beds as everyone else, pulled their covers over them. When the door finally opened, eren peeked out from under his blanket to see who it was, only to find out it was just Christa and ymir.
"Sup guys" Ymir said as she closed the door behind her. Christa made her way back over to her bed, which was near marco's.
"Where'd you guys go?" Annie asked as she pushed a lose piece of hair behind her ear.
"My little angel had to go pee." ymir laughed as she walked back over to her bed, which was near armin. The kids popped up from under their blankets. They all just sat in silence, waiting for someone to break it and, sure enough, someone did.
"I'm bored." Eren wined as he fell back on his bed. He laid like that for a while till he got an idea. He sprung to his feet and walked towards the door.
"Eren? Where are you going?" Armin said, getting out of bed as well.
"Going to the play room, i'm bored." Eren turned the knob, but armin stopped him.
"You can't go out! Its passed bedtime! You'll get in trouble with Mr. Zackly." Zackly was the owner of the orphanage , but he rarely showed his face and gave the kids anything. Its always the teen's that came to help out that got them stuff for Christmas and there birthdays. Ha, make's you wonder does he even love those kids.
"He's not here, so i'll be fine." Eren turned back to door only to fell a hand on his shoulder. He turned to face blue orbs.
"I'm coming too then." Armin smiled. Eren gave him a look like ' dude , ya'll get in trouble' but he wouldn't take no for an answer. Eren frowned.
"Are you sure?" he asked to Armin who just nodded. "Well ok."
"I'm coming too." Mikasa walked over. "Me too." Jean came over with a worried marco. Riener, connie , ymir, chrsita and sasha right behind them. Eren looked at them all in surprised.
"So everyone is coming." Eren smiled. "Well ok! Lets go!" Eren lead the group out the door and in the hallway. Bertol sat on his bed scared and shaking. He didn't wanna leave and risk getting in trouble, but he hated being alone the most, so he gathered up the courage and ran out the door.
"Wait up you guys!"
The group of trouble-makers stopped by the kitchen to grab some cookies because sasha said she was hungry (she's always hungry). As they got closer to the play room, the light was on and the door was cracked. As they got closer, they heard voice's.
"Come on, come on. I don't have all night. Tell me a story!" A loud energetic voice could be heard from the room.
"Hold on, Little girl. Don't you rush me! Your not even suppose to be up. None of you are." A slightly deep voice was heard. The group got closer to the door, and eren looked threw the crack and his eyes widen.
"Calm done shitty glasses, Let her eat her cereal." Levi said as he held his Chocolate-the-cat (the one from hello kitty) plush doll close to his chest. Levi was 15 and still loved plush toys. Eren though it was really cute, but would never say that to him face. Hanji, a year older than eren but younger than Levi, sat on the floor to the left of him; sitting on a fluffy pink pillow. To the left of her was , Petra, she was 14 years old that recently lost her father in a car accident. She use to come here just to help, but now she's here till someone adopts her. She was in pink Pj's and was sitting on a white pillow. On the left side of Levi was a guy named Erwin. Eren didn't like erwin because he knew he was trying to put the moves on his man, and he was NOT gonna let that happen. Eren growled. Apparently, it was to loud, cause Petra turned to the door.
"Shit." Eren muttered as he backed up. They were all standing in front of the door.
"What's wrong?" Sasha asked as she munched on her cookie.
"The bigger kids are in there." Eren whispered.
"What are we gonna do?" Riener asked. Eren though for a minute, then said:
"We have to go back." There was some complaining noise coming from everyone. "I know, i know, but we can't be up while the big kids are." Everyone sighed and agreed. "Now lets-" Eren was caught off by hearing loud foot steps come towards them. Before eren could find out who that was, he was pushed back and fell on the door, followed by a pile of children.
"Woooo!" They went as they fell back and the door opened revealing there hiding place. The older kids turned towards the door in shocked. The care taker had just finished her cereal and was now looking at the pile of kids at her door.
"Ow.." They groaned as the all speared from the pile.
"What are you kids still doing up? Its 9:23. You should be sleep!" Ms. Kennedy ( people call her K or Kes) asked in an, not anger, but close, voice. She had them all standing in front of the door. She had her arms crossed and her eyebrow raised. Not a good sign.
"Um...well.." Armin started. When armin failed to give an explanation, she turned to eren.
"Eren?" She questioned.
"Yes ma?" He looked up with innocent eye's, which K called bullshit on. She gave him a I'ma-wope-your-ass-if you-don't-tell-me look and eren caved.
"We, well, I couldn't sleep and decided to go play in the play room and everyone else followed me." Eren saw her hand moved and closed his eyes, preparing to get hit, but the pain didn't come. Only laughter. The kids looked at each other than back to K. Mikasa felt uneasy.
"Um...Kennedy-san. Why are you laughing? " She asked. K calmed her laughing a bit to respond.
"Because," She said once she finally calmed down and looked up with a soft smile. " Levi did the same thing. That's why there in here. Levi said he couldn't sleep and the rest of them followed him." Eren felt his checks get hot just a little. There was a small silence till K sighed.
"I guess it's not far for the big kids to be up and not you guy, too. " She turned around. "Come on" She walked in an sat in a rocking chair. The kids hesitated to join the other big kids on the floor. The kids finally came to an conclusion that the were NOT in trouble, so they walked in and sat around the big kids. Eren sat behind Levi since eyebrows, what he likes to call him, was sitting next to him. K looked around, smiling at how many children wanted to hear her story. There was about 16 kids in that room that night. She grabbed a blanket and laid it on her lap.
"Is everyone ready and comfy?" She asked with a smile. There was 'Yes ma's all around the room. "Well then." She grabbed her magical book off the little table next to her, put on her reading glasses and cleared her throat.
"Once upon a time in a far away land.." Everyone moved closer to K as she began. "Lived a young man named Eric and his little sister, maya. They lived happily in a little house outside the castle walls..."
