Chapter 1:

Eren's P.O.V

"Eren! Wake up!" Mikasa yelled as she walked into my room. "Give me a minute." I moaned as I waved her off and rolled over to the other side of the bed so I didn't have to hear her constant nagging. "Eren…" Mikasa said quietly, "I'll give you to the number 3 to get out of the bed."

"1"

"You're not my mother, Mikasa!"

"2..."

I sighed as I reluctantly rolled out of the bed to get ready for my moving day and tour of Maria college. "By the way Eren, we're meeting Armin and the others at the meet-up for the tour" Mikasa said as she exited the room for me to change. Most of my high school friends ended up going to the same college so I at least had some friends going in. I changed into a pair of navy blue skinny jeans and a fitted beige shirt. I looked over my dresser and saw a leather necklace sitting on top. I thought it'd matched the outfit so I proceeded to put the necklace on. I went into the living room to find mikasa picking up leftover boxes. "You ready?" Mikasa asked.

"Yeah...where are my box-"

" Already in the car."

Typical Mikasa. It wasn't exactly that big of a transition for me from my old home to college since I've been an orphan since I was around 10. My mom had died in car crash and my dad abandoned us saying he was going on a "business trip". However, I've always had my adopted sister, Mikasa, that usually treats me like her own son anyways.

I entered in the passenger seat since I tend to have some "road rage". Mikasa entered the driver's seat and started up the car. The song In The End came on. I'd admit I don't like my sister a whole lot but she has an exceptional taste in music. I started to hum along to the song as I watched all of the scenery pass by. There wasn't much to stare at except for shopping centers and every once in awhile some greenery.

We finally reached Maria and wandered around with boxes to what we assumed was our dorms. We were greeted by Armin and horse-face. While we were putting the boxes down, Jean proceeded to talk with my sister and get rejected as usual. "Where's everyone else?" I asked Armin.

"They should be coming anytime now," said Armin. After a minute or two Krista, Sasha, Marco, Connie, and Ymir walked around to the meetup sign where we were standing. Around fifteen minutes later, A large man appeared in front of all of us and we all went silent assuming it was the teacher. "Listen up, my name is Mr. Shadis and I will be your tour guide for today. If you don't follow me, I'm gonna leave you twerps all in the dust, understand?" He said in a disinterested tone and could probably care less about us finding our way around the college. What a jerk... I thought. I looked towards Armin and he looked like he was about to cry. I turned back to Mr. Shadis, glaring at him. Nobody hurts Armin. I've known Armin since we were kids and he always tended to get bullied a lot, so Mikasa and I were usually the ones to save him from those asses. I never backed down defending him and never will. I started to get my fists ready but I felt a pair of pale hands touch my shoulders. I turned my head around to see it was Mikasa looking very concerned. She leaned towards my ear and whispered "You're not getting suspended the first day, Eren". I huffed, trying to contain my anger, and patted Armin's back in an attempt to comfort him as we continued the tour.

The school buildings had a very rustic feel since the school was at least 100 years old. The architecture was admirable as I'd spend minutes at a time staring at the older brick buildings with vines starting to crawl up the sides of the buildings. "As you can see all of the main lecture halls are near the center of the college and around 15 minutes walk from the dorms to the lecture halls and classrooms. Terrible I know." said sarcastically. I rolled my eyes at his enthusiasm. "Now, idiots, follow me to the dorms," Mr. Shadis said, just as interested as before. We all followed as he lead us to the dorms. "Okay, girls dorms are to the right and the boys dorms to the left. Questions? No? Good... come see me for your room number and room key." said. People hesitantly gathered around him for keys and room numbers. "Eren Yeager, room 416 and here's your key." The key was surprising pretty. The key more looked more like a key to a basement more than a dorm room. I put the key in my leather necklace and it didn't look that bad. I waited for Mikasa and Armin to get their keys and room numbers and headed to the dorms with them. I walked towards the boys dorms with Armin. "Um, Mikasa I don't think you're allowed in here," I said. "Does it look like I care?" She asked and she walked in front of us to find my dorm.

"414…"

"Ah, 416!"

Mikasa yanked at my necklace to put the key into the keyhole and happily let herself in. As the door opened, I saw a pale and tiny man sitting on a strangely over-cleaned bed. "Oi, brats, what are you doing in my room?" The raven asked. He was absolutely breathtaking. A voice pulled me out of my thoughts. "Brats, answer the damn question." I awkwardly stepped forward after a few minutes, since nobody else seemed to be moving.

"Hi, I'm Eren, and I'm gonna be your new roommate, so… yeah." I said awkwardly. "Tch, Whatever." And that was the extent of our first conversation as roommates. How exciting. Mikasa and Armin helped me carry all the boxes inside my room, though it was mostly Mikasa since Armin couldn't lift anything by himself and Mikasa refused to let me help. I kept glancing at my new roommate, but he was just sitting on his bed, smirking at me. I was extremely confused as to why he was staring at me, since our first impression wasn't exactly what I would call the best. Maybe he's just...not too social? When I was about to look away to see if there were any boxes left, he had the nerve to wink at me. Wow, okay, so he wasn't shy. Uncomfortably, I practically ran to the last box and set in down in my-our room. "I guess I'll see you later then...Bye Eren!" Armin smiled at me, and Mikasa silently followed behind as they exited the room. I really didn't want to be alone with this guy right now, but I also wanted to know what this guy's problem was, so I watched them leave and shut the door behind them.

After a staring contest that lasted a couple minutes, I finally got the courage to initiate a conversation. "So..What's your name?"

"Why should I tell you?"

"Well, I don't know, maybe because we're going to be living together from now on?" At that, the raven flipped his hair and said, "The name's Levi." He suavely said. Why won't this guy stop staring at me?
