Hey guys! FINALLY GOT SOME FREE TIME :D! Well here is chapter 5. ITS A BIT RUSHED SO IM SORRY dskjbfkjdsbfjks but its an okay read this time. HOPE YOU ENJOY IT :D review and stuff.
"WAKE UP!" Hange screamed.
Eren woke up so fast that he got dizzy. All he could see was Hanges face, smiling and encouraging him to get up from the bed.
"Big day Eren! Now get up, shower, put on some nice clothes and meet me in dining hall."
Eren didn't know what was happening, he was still in bed after Hange left the room slamming the door. The only thought running through his mind was, nice clothes? We all wear the same thing, is that what she meant by nice?
Eren had just gotten out of the shower, and he was looking for the nice clothes Hange had said to put on but he couldn't find his clothes anywhere, nor his underwear.
He started to panic. He wasn't about to go out, in just a small towel, looking for clothes. He doesn't even know half of the rooms in this building.
Before he started to wrap himself in his bed blanket, someone knocked on the door.
Eren quickly spun around to see who it was.
He never been so happy to see someone in his life.
"MIKASA!" Eren said a bit to loud and excited.
Eren felt embarrassed, so he repeated her name but this time a bit more casual.
"Mikasa, W-what are you doing here? Not that I mind you being here, but I thought Levi said you couldn't visit me and-ARE THOSE MY CLOTHES?!" Eren was going to ask Mikasa how she was doing but all he could focus on was the clothes Mikasa had in her arms.
"Yes. Captain Levi told me to bring them to you, since Hange had forgot to bring them to you. They are new." Mikasa said not making eye contact with Eren and a bit red.
Eren had just remembered he was shirtless, and basically completely naked if it weren't for the towel.
He couldn't stop smiling as he saw Mikasa look away from him. He also couldn't stop staring at her. She looked so beautiful, and stunning. And all she was wearing was the stupid uniform everyone wore. But she made it look amazing.
"Ah, sorry for being shirtless again, it seems that every time we see each other I'm shirtless". Eren said smiling.
"It's fine. Just put on your clothes and be at the dining hall in 15 minutes." Mikasa said quickly leaving the room.
Mikasa didn't understand why she felt so nervous. She seen Eren shirtless before. It wasn't new to her. But somehow she managed to get all red.
She only got a quick glance but she could see it perfectly. His body had gotten much bigger. He had more muscle, and his stomach, wow. Mikasa thought maybe his now stronger then her. Which made her stomach flutter. She got really excited knowing Eren was now stronger and all she could think of was his lean, muscular body against hers.
She dismissed those thoughts and walked towards the dining hall.
Eren had finally found the dining hall. It must have been 5 minutes of him just going door to door trying to find the dining hall, his never been in it before. His only been to Hanges lab room, or as she called it the titan base.
He opened the door and saw Mikasa, and he smiled. Then he saw Hange and Levi sitting down talking about pooping.
"So he finally arrives." Levi said.
"Eren you take longer to take a shower then me." Hange said giggling.
"Sorry, I just couldn't figure out how to turn on the shower." Eren said awkwardly.
"Well I don't care. Enough small talk. Eren you're going to see all the annoying brats you call friends today. And im hoping you get get some of your memory back because this is taking to damn long." Levi said looking at Hange.
Hange was staring at Levi. Giving him a death stare.
"You can't rush amnesia Levi. It will come when its ready." Hange said calmly.
"Whatever. Anyways, Mikasa here is going to take you to see your friends. You will interact with them and have a fun time. Got that?" Levi said giving Eren a death stare that made him jump like a puppy.
"Y-yes heichou." Eren replied.
This was the first time Eren has been on a wagon, or at least his first time since his amnesia. He felt so relaxed. Sitting against the wooden backboard of the wagon, hearing the horses hooves hit the floor, and the sky was nice and clear. And to add to his amazing time, Mikasa was sitting in front of him.
He wouldn't make eye contact with her, but form time to time he tired to make the contact but she would just be touching her scarf. He wanted to touch the scarf she always wore. If his not mistaken she always wore that scarf, he has never once seen her without that maroon scarf.
"Your scarf is really pretty." Eren said with a smile.
Mikasa stopped touching her scarf and quietly said.
"Thank you. Someone gave it to me a long time ago."
"Couldn't have been that long, looks new."
"I just take good care of it."
Eren came to the conclusion that whoever gave her that scarf was either dead or it was someone she cared deeply about.
They stopped talking about the scarf after a while. Now Eren was just staring at the sky again. To his surprise he was really nervous to meet his "friends".
The wagon finally stopped, And Eren was really nervous. He felt like he was sweating through all his uniform.
"You okay?" Mikasa asked.
"Oh, yeah, totally fine. Im just about to meet a bunch of people I don't know and if I don't get along with them Levi will kill me, yeah totally fine." Eren replied while fixing his jacket.
Mikasa was a bit shocked. She never seen Eren so nervous before. When she first met him, he was so brave and not nervous at all about anything. He wasn't even nervous, at age 9, to kill 2 men. And now he was sweating a river just to meet people.
"You sure are nervous, you're sweating so much. Here, let me fix your sweaty hair." Mikasa said blankly.
"Oh no, its fine, I'm all sweaty, I don't want you touching it. Its gross." Eren replied pushing his hair back.
"Oh god, don't push your hair back, It's all wet, it will stick up, let me just fix it a bit."
Mikasa started to brush Erens hair with her hands. And Eren was right, it was wet. But she didn't mind.
"There." Mikasa said.
Eren didn't want to say that she just messed it all up, and now it was all over the place. It looked as if he just got out of bed.
"Uh, thanks."
"You always had messy hair. If you're about to meet your friends, maybe you should look more like yourself or old self..." Mikasa tried to hide the sadness in her voice but it was evident.
Eren heard the sadness in her voice and he felt horrible. He knew he wasn't his old self. He remembers Armin telling him so. Maybe when he gets his memories back he would be back to his old messy hair self.
"Can we just go meet my 'friends' already, if I stand here any longer I'm going to create a river with my sweat."
Mikasa started to walk in front of Eren to open the door and he could have sworn he saw a little smile on her face, and that made him confident. He could at least make her smile.
Mikasa opened the door, and the first thing Eren saw was this tall, lean guy. He had brownish hair but the sides of his head where black haired. Eren thought that hair cut was to much. And it looked really weird on his long face.
"Took you long enough!" The tall guy said.
The tall guy gave Eren a look. Eren wasn't sure what it was but it was an intense stare and Eren felt threaten.
"Hey Eren." The tall guy said.
Eren didn't know why but the way he said his name was as if he hated him. And Eren wasn't just going to stand there.
"Do you have a problem with me?" Eren asked.
"A problem? No, no problem at all." The tall guy replied.
"Jean please give Eren some space." Mikasa said lightly pushing Jean away from Eren.
Eren saw it. He saw the tall guy-Jean, he saw Jean blush. And something inside Eren lite up like fire and he already hated this guy.
"S-sorry." Jean said moving away from Eren. But before he fully stepped away he gave Eren another death stare. But I didn't effect Eren in the slightest because he has gotten Levi's death stare and Jean compared to Levi, it was a laughing stock.
Eren saw Sasha and Connie.
Both of them came running towards Eren.
"Eren! How are you?" Sasha asked.
"Fine, thanks."
Connie came in for a hug and a pat on the back.
"Woah Eren, you been working out? I don't remember you being this muscular." Connie said smirking.
Right when Connie said that, Jean came into the picture.
"Working out? You want to see muscular? Ill show you-" Jean was interrupted by Connie.
"No one wants to see your abs Jean, no one cares."
"Shut up." Jean said through gritted teeth.
"Okay guys, so remember why we are here, for Eren to-" now it was Mikasa who was interrupted by Sasha.
"Mikasa just relax. We are all talking and having fun. Take a look Eren and Jean are giving each other death stares, Connie is just waiting for a fight and me and you, well me and you are just standing here."
"ARMIN!" Eren shouted as he saw Armin come through the back door.
"Hey Eren! I'm so glad to see you, I been so busy with helping Commander Erwin do missions that I have no time to go visit you, but he let me come today. I know I'm a bit late." Armin said with a smile.
"You are not late. I'm so glad you're here."
Eren was really glad to see Armin. Besides Mikasa, Armin was the only other person Eren felt really happy talking to.
Everyone was talking and making Eren laugh. Jean kept telling Eren to always treat women right. But Eren didn't understand why he was telling him that. Armin was reading a book next to Eren. Connie and Sasha were having a something like a dance off.
"Why are you staring at me?" Eren asked Jean.
"Because I don't know if its you or not you." Jean replied.
"What?"
"Since you lost your memory, you became less of an asshole. You seem more calm and normal. I don't like it."
"Thanks, I think."
"But you still haven't changed, know how I know that Yeager?"
"No, please enlighten me."
"Because you're still an asshole no matter what."
"That made no sense."
Connie and Sasha came into the conversation.
"Eren don't listen to Jean his just jealous because you have Mikasa and he doesn't." Connie said smirking at Jean.
"SHUT UP CONNIE!
Sasha started to laugh. Armin was still into his book. There was so much noise and yet Armin seem to not notice it. Eren was impressed.
But the only think that was on his mind right now was, that Jean liked Mikasa.
"To bad Ymir isn't here with Krista, they could have helped me make fun of you." Connie said talking to Jean.
"Ymir would have, not Krista. Shes to nice." Jean replied.
Eren had no idea who Ymir and Krista where but he was sad he didn't met them today.
After a while of Jean and him getting on each others nervous, he noticed that Mikasa was missing. He was so focused on talking to Jean that he didn't even notice Mikasa disappearance.
"I'll be back." Eren said getting up from the table.
"WHERE YOU GOING YEAGER! ARE YOU GOING TO LOOK FOR MIKA-" Jean shouted as Eren left.
Eren closed the door behind him, ignoring Jean and walked towards the field.
What is wrong with that Jean guy. He sure wants to win something, I'm not sure what. Eren though as he was looking for Mikasa.
And it wasn't hard to find her. She was sitting on a bench near a track.
Eren sat down without said a word.
After a few seconds, he asked.
"Why are you here all by yourself?"
Mikasa turned and made direct eye contact, which took Eren aback.
"I wanted some fresh air." She said still making eye contact.
Eren started back. This time he was not going to turn away from her intense stare.
He stared at her for about a minute. Both of them just staring into each others eyes.
And right when Eren was going to say she had pretty eyes, his head started to hurt.
"Shit!" Eren said as he grabbed his head.
Mikasa got up and told Eren if he was okay. Worry evident in her voice.
"Yeah I'm fine. This happens a lot." Eren said rubbing his temples slowly.
"Are you sure? Do you need water? Want me to get Hange?" Mikasa said all at once.
"No. Its fine, I swear, this happens a lot, it comes and goes." Eren hasn't seen this side of Mikasa. She looked panicked and very worried.
Mikasa kneeled down in front of Eren and look at him with sad eyes.
"Hey, I'm fine, I promise. It doesn't hurt that much."
Mikasa stayed quite.
"Hange always tells me its because I don't drink a lot of water, even though we both know its not because of that, or maybe it is. Who knows."
Eren was going to speak again but he was silenced by Mikasas hand on his face. He felt red and his stomach fluttered.
"I'm sorry, this is my fault, if I had saved you earlier, if I was stronger, you wouldn't be in pain, its my faul-"
Eren knew what she was talking about Hange had told him.
"It's not your fault. Its my own fault. Hange told me what happened before I lost my memory. She said I was stuck in something, she wouldn't tell me what. But she said that you were far away and Levi was the closest, if it weren't for him I might be dead."
This time Eren touched Mikasa on her cheek.
"You are to perfect for anything to be your fault. You are perfect." Eren said. And right when he said it he regretted it.
Mikasa turned around. And Eren felt so stupid.
DID I JUST CALL MY ADOPATED SISTER PERFECT?! NOT JUST THAT I SAID IT SO SOFTLY, NOT IN A BROTHERLY WAY AT ALL! WHAT THE FUCK AM I DOING?! SHIT! SHES GOING TO THINK IM IN LOVE WITH HER! ME?! HER BROTHER! Eren didn't even know why those words came out. It just felt right. They were close, she was touching his hand on his head, she felt guilty, he didn't want her to feel guilty so he said that.
Mikasa turned around because she could not believe he had just said that. She was red as her scarf. How is she going to be able to turn around and face him.
Eren wanted to run away. Run far far away.
"I meant it as in you're a perfect solider! Thats what umm- Hange says and Levi they say you are the perfect solider. And that one day you could even surpass Levi and become more badass then he is." Nice save Eren. Eren found a loop hole in what he said earlier. And he felt good about it.
Mikasa turned around not red anymore and said.
"Maybe when I'm older I'll surpass that shorty."
"Don't let him hear you say that, he will kick you with his little legs." Eren said laughing.
And he finally saw Mikasa smile, right in front of him. It was beautiful. Her smile was soft and just right. How her cheeks would curl up on the edge of the smile, it was so beautiful. He didn't know how to explain it, it was just the best smile he ever seen.
"We should go back inside and talk to everyone, since thats kinda my mission right now." Eren said getting up from the bench.
"Yeah we should."
Eren and Mikasa walked back to the room. Eren didn't really want to go back but since he already made it weird by calling her perfect he thought maybe he could distract her with other people so she could forget he said that.
They walked back silently but there hands would touch from time to time, and the atmosphere between them was different, it wasn't like before. When Mikasa would just stare or Eren would just stare. It had changed. It felt more relaxed. That was a good sign.
