"Take my eyes, take them aside.
Take my face and desecrate my arms and legs,
they get in the way.
And take my hands, they'll understand.
Take my heart, pull it apart.
And take my brain, or what remains
and throw it all away"
Please. I just want you to take me apart so I don't have to suffer with the dogs of this world.
Mikasa Ackerman had just transferred into Shingeki High School, after the unfortunate passing of her mother. She was now living with Eren, her childhood friend. The Jaeger family was well off, and could afford to foster her now. Eren told her that the people at this school were a little different. If only she had heeded his advice.
Sasha Blaus, known as potato girl to the general population, was more than excited at the news of a new student. Apparently she was practically Eren's sister, so obviously it was Sasha's duty to become Mikasa's very first new friend at this school. However, when Mikasa walked through the classroom doors, Sasha could hardly breathe. Her hair framed her beautiful face perfectly, and the red scarf she wore complimented her skin tone. Before Sasha could confront the new girl, Jean approached her. Sasha watched unable to prevent Mikasa from making friends with the popular group.
The popular clique consisted mainly of Bertolt Hoover, Reiner Braun, Marco Bott, Jean Kirstein, Petra Ral, and Annie Leonhardt. Despite Reiner's quiet nature, he was the center of the group because of the role he plays as a big brother figure. The others always go to him for help, whereas one of his closest friends in the faction, Annie, was mostly an outcast in the group. She always sat further from the rest of the group, but was undoubtedly involved in the posse.
The dynamic of that group was confusing to say the least, but they were so tight-knit, that the fact they'd let a newbie in was surprising. There was only one way a transfer student could have ever made it into the group. One of the member has a crush on her, presumably Jean. Sasha was impacted roughly by that fact. She'd never get a chance to even be friends with Mikasa. Well that was until the bell had rung, and the teacher sat Mikasa right in front of her.
Sasha decided it would be a great way to get to know the new girl. Although the teacher was very strict when it came to talking, she found passing notes was unbelievably easy. He could spot a voice a mile away, but he couldn't even see 10 centimeters in front of him.
Hey.
Sasha scribbled out the word. Her handwriting was everything short of perfect. It was legible, but that was as close as it got to being neat. On the other hand, Mikasa's penmanship was nothing short of perfect. Her words were harshly put, but they were so elegantly written.
What do you want?
Um… Well… I just thought you might want to be friends.
The last thing I want is a friend. I want to finish school, and go home to study. Please stop with these meaningless disruptions.
Sasha looked at the paper, more confused than anything. She thought all new kids wanted was a friend. She had never had trouble making a friend before. But, she'd be damned if this little discussion was going to dissuade her from achieving her objective. By the end of the quarter, Sasha would be friends with Mikasa, if it was the last thing she did.
Mikasa… Is it okay if I call you that? Yes? Okay, good. I wanted to know if you'd like to have lunch with Eren, Connie, Armin, Ymir, Christa, and I?
If there was any possibility that Jean hadn't had the time to ask Mikasa to sit at lunch with his group, then maybe Sasha would be able to make friends with her at the table.
I already have previous arrangements, now for the last time, please stop with these disgusting drabbles.
It was easy for anyone to tell that any hopes for Mikasa to avoid joining the popular clique, were shot down then and there. Sasha had the most dejected look plastered across her face. She had always been known for reading people well, but she was so caught up in her own actions to notice the subtle signs that Mikasa would rather not be bothered. She had her legs closed, and she was sitting up straight, hands folded on the desk, as if to create a barrier. Even after Mikasa blatant statements, Sasha had been too wrapped up in the idea of befriending this girl, that she ignored Mikasa, and only made her angry.
Mikasa was now sitting with a clenched jaw, and crossed arms. Sasha feared that any attempt of even befriending this girl was thrown out the window with her silly attempts. She would have to speak with Eren after this class period if she would regain any hope of becoming friends with this mysterious girl.
Sasha didn't even notice the bell go off, she had been too busy attempting to read the girl that was formerly in front of her, but now nowhere to be seen. Her best friend, Connie, had shaken her from her daze and fearfully, she jumped, squeaking ever so slightly.
"Hey girl, it's almost time for Science and you have been sitting here staring into the middle of nowhere," Connie smirked at her.
"Hey shut up, I was busy thinking," Sasha attempted to frown, but only ended up laughing, dashing to her next period.
If she was late one more time, the science teacher was going to have her head on a stick, so just as the bell rang she slid into her seat with a sigh of relief. This class didn't have any assigned seats, so Sasha's group of miscreants took one corner, and Reiner's group of illustrious individuals occupied the other. The tables sat two, so Sasha sat next to Connie, Eren next to Armin, and Ymir to Christa.
At the other corner of the room, Reiner was next to Annie like always, Bertolt to Petra, and Jean to Marco. The only question the floated around the two rivaling groups was which side Mikasa was going to sit on. If she sat on the side with Reiner's group, they won the new girl, if she sat on the side with Sasha's group, then the war continued. The cliques weren't really rivals, but in the case of Mikasa, both were fighting for her.
Evidently, she chose to sit on the side with Sasha's group, erupting a loud grumble from the other side of the room, underlying with some curses. On the contrary, Sasha's group was all smiling triumphantly, Sasha's grin larger than the rest. She hadn't lost the new girl yet. Tension was growing between the two sides, and Jean was determined not to lose to Sasha. Almost as determined as Sasha, but no one could feel the determination Sasha felt.
