Things between Jean and Eren were never great.

It didn't start out terrible, just the quirks of a neurotic roommate, right? Wrong. The first indication for Eren was the very first day he moved into the dorm. He walked into the room to see his roommate stretched out on his bed reading a book. Eren smiled to himself, if he's a reader then maybe he won't be too loud. He began to walk over to introduce himself but once Eren was halfway through the room the boy on the bed held up his hand and said, "Stop."

Eren stopped, a bit confused by the situation. He opened his mouth to question when the boy interupted him, "If you look down at the floor you will see a line of masking tape." Eren looked down and saw, just as mentioned, a line of masking tape. He looked back up at the boy who then continued, "That marks that halfway line. The half I'm on is mine, the half you're on is yours. Stay on yours, I'll stay on mine." Eren frowned, turned around and mumbled to himself, "Nice to meet you too."

The second indication was much more annoying to Eren. Jean woke up early. And not just someone who wakes up at 7 o'clock and is on perfectly on time for class, no, he woke up at five in the morning. Five in the freaking morning. But that's not the worst part, the waking up was nothing compared to the fact that he would immediately start to do yoga. Yep, yoga. He'd get out a yoga mat and do an hour ritual every morning then go off to take a shower. When he got back he would open the blinds and a ray of sunlight would come in through the window. Annoying Eren even more.

The third indication for Eren was the fact that he was a very loud eater. Eren had a tolerance for certain things, but people who eat loud was not something he could tolerate for long periods of time and Jean ate a lot. It was like the guy never stopped snacking, he was constantly eating chips and ramen and all sorts of other foods, sure he was a here on a football scholarship and spent most of his time practicing and working out, but it was like his appetite knew no bounds.

Of course, Eren couldn't just go and leave after a few days, no that would be unresonable. So he tried to wait it out. These antics lasted for three weeks. Three agonizing weeks. Finally Eren lost it.

It was one day, one seemingly normal day, just like any other. When Jean's alarm clock went off, Eren's eyes flew open and he shot up in bed, "Enough! I'm sick of waking up at five every morning just because that's when you feel like waking up!" Eren shouted at the brown haired boy who was just standing up out of bed.

Jean hardly looked phased, "Then leave."

Eren's anger was bubbling over, "Fine! If that's what you want!" He quickly pulled on some pants, slipped on some shoes, and grabbed his jacket and wallet then walked out of the dorm room, slamming the door on the way out.

"Two can play this game Jean Kirschstein. From here on out your life will be a living hell. I'll be sure to make it just so." Eren thought to himself angrily as he stormed through the lounge of his dormitory. Catching the eye of a few early risers who were sitting down there drinking their morning coffee or doing the homework they didn't finish the night before. Eren just glared at them and continued to stomp his way to the food court. If he was gonna be up this early he needed some coffee to keep him going, and not that shit coffee that they had in his dorm lounge.

He got to the cafe and ordered hismelf a large coffee with extra cream and sugar. He took a seat at one of the tables and began to calm down as he drank his coffee.

Before long all Eren could think about was how he was supposed to deal with situation. He was fine with moving all his stuff out into a new dorm but how was he supposed to do that? Obviously he didn't want to cause a big fuss with the college about his rooming but he did want to move out. Suddenly a thought dawned on Eren. An apartment! In the city! It's not a very far commute, only about 20 minutes by subway.

Eren shook his head, he couldn't afford an apartment in the city. They were expensive not to mention hard to find. Eren looked up and noticed the bulletin board across from him. Of course, the answer was right in front of him. He stood up, a little too eagerly and began to look at the ads that were hung up there, when suddenly he saw it. A plain white flier in the middle of the board. It warrented the words, "Roommate wanted, two bedroom apartment in the city, two full bathrooms, a kitchen, and living room. Looking for a clean, orderly person who can pay half the rent each month. If interested come to the address below and I will interview you."

Eren looked around on the flier, "Strange, there's no name...or phone number." He took one of the papers that was sticking off of the bottom of the paper and stuck it in his pocket, walking out of the cafe with his coffee in hand he headed towards the edge of campus to the subway station. He intended to move out very soon so why not go check out the place now?

The elevator made a chiming noise that indicated that he had reached the floor that the apartment was on. The doors opened and he walked out of the elevator. He looked at the number on the wall in front of him, 530. The apartment he was going to was 545. He took his chances and turned to the right, hoping it was the right way. He noted that it was in fact the right way and continued walking down the hall until he reached the doorway of room 545. He knocked a few times and waited patiently for the person to open the door.

When the door swung open it revealed a shorter man who looked very familiar. His black hair and hazel eyes stood out to him, and suddenly he remembered. The boy from his theatre class.

"Levi?"

The boy cocked his head to the side, "Yeah so what do you want?"

"I'm here about the roommate wanted sign."
