So Close, Yet So Far

by tentsubasa

Armin likes Annie. But Annie likes Eren. But Eren likes Krista. But Krista likes Armin. Who'll win in this love square of parallel romances? This is a translation of a piece of Japanese fanfiction. (Modern day high school AU)

33. Eren - 6

Five minutes later.

Armin: "I feel kind of sleepy too…."

Armin: *falls down on desk*

Armin: "zzz"

Eren: "Armin? You fini—?"

Right now, I'm looking at something pretty incredible.
Armin and Annie are sleeping while holding hands.
I'm not sure why, but after noticing their sleeping forms, I glanced at the clock. It was 8:59 PM.

Eren: "Hmm, in just a minute, the clock will strike."

Eren: "I wanna see what'll happen when the chime wakes them up."

Eren: "I guess I'd better find someplace to hide." *hide, hide*

Krista: "Eren, what're you doing?"

Eren: "Shhh."

Krista: "Okay." *nods*

Krista: "So, what're you doing?"

Eren: "Look over there."

Krista: "Over…." *giggles*

Eren: "In just a little, the clock'll strike 9."

Eren: "I wanna see what'll happen when they wake up."

Krista: "I want to see what happens too!"

Eren: "Then let's watch together!"

Krista: "Okay!"
