The One That Got Away Part 3 Happy Reunion

After a long time Eren decided to write to his parents he misses them and wants them to know he's OK he told them that all his hard work at college had paid off and now he was a full-fledged mason and with his skills he'd built his own house along with his friend. He told his mum he has a massive kitchen even bigger then there's. He also tells them he cooks a lot now thanks to his mum's nagging which he's thankful for now. He tells them he misses them both so much he asked how Armin's doing but said he wouldn't contact him and for them to just to tell him he's OK he finished the letter by telling them he loved them.

Half a week later he received a letter from his parents they were so glad he was safe and over the moon about his work and they both loved him. His dad asked how his money situation was but said he wouldn't say anything else it would be up to Eren to answer if he wanted to. When he looks in the letter he sees two folded pieces of paper when he opens them he smiles two of his favourite recipes that his mum knew he loved he loved that he hadn't had them in a few years so now he knew how to make it himself he would.

He sent another letter back thanking his mum for the recipes telling here he'd be getting the ingredients for them both shortly but would not be as good as here. He said his money situation was OK but not great especially with building his own house he said he'd love to see them both if they wanted to come that would be Ok but he would never return to his old home saying this was his home now.

The Monday after he sent the letter he received one back when he read it he smiled his mum was coming but his dad was unfortunately to busy but would try and come another time. His mum said she'd come with a cheque from his dad and that she'd be there in two weeks ending with that both love him. He sent a quick letter back saying he can't wait and thanks for the money when it arrives.

Two weeks later Eren met his mum at the airport and she cried in his arms she looks at him "I missed you so much Eren" He smiles "And I you but you know why I had to do it" She nods 2I do but it was very hard on all of us even Mikasa" He stays quiet at the mention of her name he sighs "How's Armin" She smiles "He's OK I told him you got in touch he can't believe you built your own house he's happy that your happy but still misses you" He sighs "And I miss him I always will" She smiles "Let me see my baby's house" He nods OK" He takes her bags and puts them in his X5 then he takes her to his home. When he drives into his drive she looks at the house "Oh my god you built this" He nods "Yea Me and my friend Jacques I won my own mason business and he's my business partner".

They both get out of the car she smiles "I'm so proud of you" He smiles "Thanks mum" He takes her bags and leads her inside the house he puts her bags in the spare room which is a little bit smaller than his own. Then he leads her to the kitchen and she's blown away "Oh my its massive two cookers, two sinks, loads of cupboards and a dishwasher you lazy bum and a massive fridge freezer and what's that" He looks where she's pointing "That's the pantry well what do you think" She smiles "I'm jealous but I'm still a better cook then you" He smiles "You always will be" She hugs him "I missed you my baby" He smiles "I missed you I'm sorry for leaving the way I did but it was the only way I wanted to leave no I needed to leave" She touches his cheek "I know you did now show me the rest of the house" He smiles "OK" He takes her to her room she never went in before instead looking around she's stunned He nudges her "Bigger then you own again right" She smiles "Bigger isn't always better" He smirks "Depends on the situation" She smiles "Shut up I've taught you better than that" He smirks "Sorry check out the bed" She sits down "Wow so comfy" He smiles "Comfier then yours" She smiles "Oh yes it is better not tell your father he'll get jealous and buy a new one to rival this one" He smiles "My own is more comfier then this one". They then leave the room and he shows her his room the dining room both bathrooms then he takes her into the back garden that has a pool" She smiles "Oh my Eren this house is perfect maybe I should move out here and you can build me a house" He smiles "Maybe".

She smiles "This is a perfect house for my baby" He rolls his eyes" I'm 19 years old" She hugs him "you'll always be my green eyed baby" He rolls his eyes again "So what do you want to do you must be tired do you want to rest for while" She nods "That would be nice" He smiles "Whilst your napping I'll go down to the town and buys something nice for you". She smiles "Lead the way back to that comfy bed Eren" He smirks "This was madam" She hooks her arms in his and he leads her back into the house. He leaves her at her room and smiles "Try not to sink into the bed" She smiles "I'll do my best" He leaves her to it and goes down to the town and picks up some champagne some massive steaks that he loves and two massive potatoes that he uses for jacket potatoes he also buys some cookie dough ice cream for dessert. When he arrives back he checks in on her and she's still napping he watches her sleep he's missed his mum a lot he walks to the kitchen and starts preparing the food the potato's will take a few hours to soften. He puts the ice cream and steaks away and puts the champagne in the fridge then puts on the potatoes.

It's about an hour later When Eren hears from behind him "Now that smells nice" He smiles "Massive steaks and Jacket potatoes I found this amazing place that sells them there massive oh I also bought some champagne and some cookie dough ice cream for dessert sound good" she smiles "Sound marvellous do you want a hand" He smiles "Nah I got it oh wait you can check on the potatoes if you want then open the champagne it's in the fridge" She smiles "I can do that" She opens up the cookers "Oh my there massive there still a bit hard though" He nods "OK" She nods "Where are the glasses" He looks at her "Good question I'm not sure" She chuckles and starts opening the cupboards it doesn't take long "Found Them" She takes out two champagne glasses and places them on the counter then goes to the fridge and opens the fridge and pulls out the champagne and opens it and pours two glasses then passes one to Eren.

Then she watches him as he cooks the steaks he looks at her and smiles "What" She smiles "Just admiring my little baby all grown up" He smirks "Yep I can cook, eat, drink rock climb, swim build so yea that's cool" She nods "Exactly I'm just so happy you learned something from me" He smiles "Well I got your looks to mum" She chuckles "That you did".

After another 30 minutes he dishes up the food and they start to eat when Carla takes a bite from the steak she looks at Eren "Perfect steak but what is this weird taste" He smiles "Can you guess what it is" She smiles "I can taste pepper but I'm not sure what is it" He smiles Paprika" She smiles "Paprika yes now I taste it" He smiles "Good isn't it" She smiles "Oh yes it is but what made you put Paprika on it" He smiles "Well it was a mistake actually not this time I always put it in now but the first time I opened the cupboard and pulled it out thinking it was pepper then sprinkled some on. Then didn't really pay much attention until I took a bite and was like wow this is good so I went into the kitchen and found the pot of Paprika out I was like Oh well it tastes nice". She smiles "Silly you but it really gives it a kick I'll have to surprise your father with it". He smiles "Oh that will be funny" She smiles "That's why I'll do it" They both laugh.

For the rest of the week he takes her around Calgary she buys her a few gifts and she buys some for Grisha and Armin and his granddad. He takes her dancing and they even get mistaken for a couple. They both laughed at that. Whilst she's there it's his birthday probably planned by her of course. She bakes a cake for him and gives him a present she bought before she came and one from his father and one from Armin. She'd also given him the cheque for 20 grand from his father. When he opens the present from his mum it's a nice black silk shirt which he loves. From his dad he gets a nice gold watch and from Armin he gets some nice trainers he loves all the presents but never expected one from Armin but he's also not surprised I bet she told Armin she was coming. He hugs her "Thank you mum" She smiles "Anything for my baby now try it on" He walks away she grabs his arm "Here's OK" He sighs then pulls off his t-shirt and puts the shirt on and she smiles "Put quite a lot of muscle on I see and you look so handsome". He laughs "Thanks Mum" She smiles "Glad you're happy" He also puts on the watch and she smiles "Perfect".

Two days later and it's time for her to go he takes her back to the airport when they get there she hugs him again "I'll miss you" He smiles "I'll miss you to". He watches her plane go off before he leaves he loved having his mother here would have been better with his dad also but that's OK". A few days later he gets a letter from his mum thanking him for a wonderful holiday and promising that she and his father would visit for Christmas.

He smiles after reading the letter his parents coming over for Christmas will be good he writes back telling them it will be great to see them both at Christmas and he can't wait. After writing the letter he goes to work as he has quite a lot of mason jobs to do that will keep him busy for a few months. One night when he's back at home he goes into the spare room and he can still smell his mother's perfume that then reminds him of when he took her dancing and that old couple thought she was his girlfriend he laughs at that his mum is still beautiful but that's not what you'd expect although taking your mother dancing is kind of weird and nowadays older women dating younger men is normal but kind of creepy to Eren. They both found the funny side of it though. He takes off the dirty sheets and everything else and carries them to the washing machine after that he goes to work.
