Eren's horse balked at the river and threw Eren off. He landed flat on his back, pain shot through him. Armin almost fell off his own horse in laughter.
"Are you okay?" he managed to get out.
"Ow." Eren sat up, his horse walked over and nudged him. Armin dismounted and helped Eren up.
"Can you ride back?" Armin asked.
"Yeah, I'll be fine . . . I think," Eren replied, rubbing his back. Eren grabbed his horses reins and stiffly remounted. Armin jumped on his horses and they started heading back.
"Did you hear about Connie and Jean?" Armin asked.
"What about them?" Eren asked looking at Armin.
"Apparently they're back together."
"Seiously? Didn't they just break up?"
Armin shrugged.
"I'm not gonna pretend to understand those two."
"What about you? do you still like Mikasa?" Armin blushed.
"No," he lied.
"You are sooo lying," Eren said.
"What's it too you? You've got Levi!" Armin said flustered.
"Dude, Mikasa is practically my sister!" Eren said, grinning.
"Oh look, there's the castle," Armin said hastilly.
"Stop changing the subject," Eren said annoyed.
"Well, it is right there."
"Thank you captain obvious," Eren said with very thick sarcasm.
"I'm not Levi," Armin joked.
"Hey!" Eren protested and hit Armin on the arm. The blond started laughing as they went through the gate. They headed back to the stables and unsaddled their horses.
