Two little boys with sparkling teal eyes danced in a bed of green that was accompanied by a small crooked gravel pathway. The boys jumped in circles singing as the wind carefully blew around them in insignificant gusts while the boys continued their game. Hand in hand the two skipped towards two large trees that in-between lay a small flower filled wooden swing.
A beautiful woman with chestnut hair approached the two small children before pushing them lightly. Tiny giggles erupted from the two young boys on the flower swing who were now wearing flowers behind their ears.
"Ewen, you look pwetty" one of the boys gaped before grinning in awe.
Eren became instantly flustered and turned away quickly. He looked down at his brown outside shoes before turning to the boy.
"Not as pwetty as you" he muttered before placing another flower in the little boys hair.
His eyes gleamed at the praise of Eren and he couldn't help but chuckle at the shyness of his twin brother.
"Eli I wuv you" Eren whispered to his twin brother who sat wide eyed smiling at him.
"I wuv you more Ewen" Eli replied making Eren blush slightly but still giggle.
Eli placed his hand on Eren's, the swing still carefully was sent back and forward. Time seemed to settle like that as the sun sat over the memories beautiful feel. Eren could still see a charming smile resting on his twins face even as he began to awaken and fade back into reality.
"Ewen, will be togwether fowever" Eli laughed before leaning in and kissing Eren's lips innocently. Eren snuggled into Eli's arms that were always a lot bigger than his own.
"Don't let go now Eren, you need to stay safe" the woman spoke softly, it was his mothers voice. Eren turned and giggled at her before nuzzling his brothers forehead.
"Kay" the child said.
Eren sat up in his bed quickly, he hadn't dreamed of his brother in a long time and didn't plan on ever doing it again. Eli had disappeared a long time ago when Eren had escaped his destiny.
He remembered searching for hours down long halls stripped of all colour, a sense of sickness and hate circling the air and he heard horrific screams coming from every corner which he assumed was similar to the ones that he himself had given just a couple of hours before.
Eren felt tears stream down his face at the memory. To think that the last words Eren had gotten to actually speak was the name Eli and a calling for help.
The teal eyes boy looked into a mirror that lay just across his bed, the glass was cracked halfway across it making his reflection cut from his forehead to nose. The mirror was true, his reflection would always be halved as long as Eli wasn't around, when he told the police about him they simply stated that he was probably dead.
Even though they had told him that, Eren never truly believed them, inside he knew that Eli was still here in the world in fact he was probably closer than Eren could imagine.
Eren looked across the room, to an open window, he peered out to look at the dawn sky. A multitude of colours cascaded over the city. Eren saw palaces aligned up curving into obscure shapes that would be impossible to live in.
He saw drunken fairy girls fluttering home occasionally slamming into random objects. Eren watched small incomprehensible and most likely unreal bugs settle into cozy flower bed to rest and watched as the flowers grew in size to become an unruly quilt of many variations of pure roses.
Eren wondered if his twin saw the same breathtaking world as he did, he wondered if the boy saw street lamps and firefly jars and saw the trees singing to one another. He wondered if when their eyes met he would finally be able to see the creature that he himself was.
To be honest Eren's day had become a rather depressing thing. When Eren finally arrived at school he automatically went on the search for his new boyfriend, which he could hardily believe was real still, and Armin the best friend anyone could ever have. Luckily Armin was in the library like usual making him easy to locate.
"Eren! Are you alright?" Armin questioned looking quite worried as the brunet placed his bag down.
The blonde pulled him into a hug before he could react.
"'Yeah, im fine. Did something happen that I don't know about?'" Eren asked now very confused and slightly scared. Armin shook his head quickly looking down at the phone dispelling any uneasy feelings that had created.
"No it's just that you're crying" Armin whispered into his ear sounding quite sorrowful as he did so. Eren raised his hand to his eyes and felt wetness cover his fingers. He hadn't really noticed he was too busy being lost in thought.
"Want to talk about it?" Armin asked shyly before looking Eren dead in the eyes awaiting a reply. The brunet was taken aback, he had never really told anyone about Eli because it was just too upsetting to speak about but then again he had never met anyone like the blonde that was still looking at him anxiously.
He had nearly forgotten how lonely Armin was beforehand and he swore to himself that he would never let the blonde feel that again.
"Promise you wont tell anyone it is a really big secret and it's really sad" Eren wrote cautiously. Armin nodded his head before motioning for Eren to sit down.
"I promise Eren I won't breath a word of anything you tell me to anyone, ever" Armin cried sounding truthful and determined. Eren sighed as he wondered where to start after all it wasn't the most pleasant thing to tell another person.
"Last night I had a dream. Well it was more of a memory. In the dream I was on the swing that my father built with my brother..." Eren's message trailed off as he tried to force himself not to cry.
Armin calmly placed his hand on Eren's shoulder and moved it in circular motions making the brunet feel supported.
"My brother was called Eli. Actually he was my twin. I loved him more than anyone else, but we got in a lot of trouble and I never saw him again. When I told the police, they told me that he was dead and that I should forget him" Eren sniffled as he wrote, his hand shaking and then he looked into Armin's blown wide piercing blue gaze. Armin grabbed him into his arms and squeezed making the brunet squeal.
"Im so sorry Eren. I shouldn't have asked. I can't even imagine how hard it had been for you" Armin hurriedly blabbered.
The teal eyed boy smiled at his friends never ending apology.
Honestly he loved the way Armin spoke, it made him feel loved.
"Calm down Armin. I wanted to tell you. Your my best friend after all" Eren messaged quickly interrupting him. He felt the blonde boy go stiff in his arms before he pulled away. Armin was crying.
"I...im your best friend?" Armin stuttered looking shocked. Eren nodded enthusiastically.
"Of course you are, your the best person that I know apart from Levi, my boyfriend and Mikasa" he typed while laughing through his nose and then he began wiping the tears from the previous conversation away. Armin grinned like a Cheshire cat at that tears were still silently falling.
"Your going out with Levi?" The blonde seemed to shout as his mind comprehended the words that Eren had said. Once again Eren nodded in reply.
"You know Armin, Erwin really likes you" Eren messaged instantly, softly insinuating the thought more than saying it.
The blonde became instantly flustered picking up on what Eren was trying to say. "What? No. No he doesn't. He can't. Don't be silly" Armin cried before placing his head in his arms. Eren saw a dark blush on the boys face and began to laugh.
"So, you like Erwin then" Eren wrote making Armin flinch. The blonde shook his head that was still in his arms.
"Aww, little Ar is in love with the big strong Erwin" Eren gushed enjoying Armin's shy reactions.
"How do you know that Erwin likes me?" Armin questioned, his head peaking out from his arms encasing. Eren sighed before leaning down to see Armin's peaking eyes. As soon as he lot close Armin closed the gap he was looking out of.
"A little Levi told me, when we were walking home together yesterday. He said that Erwin hangs out in the library to spend time with you because he had a huge crush on you" he wrote then Eren winked at Armin who was once again looking through his arms.
Eren could tell that Armin was incredibly happy by the news and would probably act upon it.
"Speak of the devil" the brunet added before collecting his stuff. "Go get him tiger!" Eren encouraged before he walked to another table keeping his phone in hand.
Erwin sat in the seat across from Armin giving his a small hello. When the small blonde had finally decided to untangle himself from the arm prison that he created, the boy seemed determined. Eren watched as Armin walked towards a bookshelf reaching up to the top shelf.
Armin knew that he couldn't actually reach the book but he wanted to experiment with Eren's knowledge. Armin truly believed that the boy himself was an angel, he has swooped in and made Armin's life so much better.
Suddenly Armin felt a body press into him and saw a strong pair of arms grab the book from above him. He turned to see Erwin's handsome features looking strait at him. Erwin blushed as he held the book towards the smaller blonde.
"Umm thank you Erwin" Armin tried before he took the book, their fingers brushed and Armin smiled awkwardly.
"Hey Erwin umm. You know if you like books then there is a really good book store nearby. Do you maybe perhaps want to go with me?" Armin quickly shouted before looking down awkwardly. Erwin chuckled at the motion. He never thought that he would be asked out by the beauty in front of him.
"Like a date...?" Erwin questioned almost silently. Armin went a dark shade of beetroot red before nodding silently.
"Wow. You know that you are one of the most beautiful people that I have ever seen. I can't believe. So, wait. You like me?" Erwin mumbled trying not to cry. Armin automatically noticed, Erwin really was a gentle giant.
"Yeah, I always have but I was too scared to say anything. Thankfully an angel gave me courage and now I am asking you Erwin to be my boyfriend" he declared before looking at his fumbling hands "please" he added softly.
If Eren didn't already think that this was the most adorable scene that he had ever paid witness to then that added 'please' had defiantly done the trick. As soon as Armin had started his little test Eren had began recording it. This was something that he forever wanted to remember and definitely something that Hanji would want to see.
"I would love to be your boyfriend Armin. In fact there's nothing that I would want more" Armin stood on his tip toes and Erwin leaned down to capture their lips in an embrace. The kiss lasted about ten seconds and by the end Eren was crying, he wiped the tears away after stopping the recording.
Armin looked over to him and watched as tears flooded his smiling face. Erwin looked over too, suddenly he realised that Armin's 'angel' was Levi's as well. Eren was changing everything for them and Erwin couldn't be more thankful.
"Why is my bright eyes crying?" A deep voice interrupted making Eren turn quickly. Levi pulled him from his seat and into his arms.
"Now who do I have to kill?" Levi asked seriously making Eren almost giggle.
"Watch this" Eren typed before handing over his phone. Levi felt himself tear up as the couple finally made it official. His gave wondered towards the two blondes.
"You finally got your wish Eyebrows" Levi whispered. Erwin burst into laughter.
"So did you" he replied motioning to Eren's loving expression. Levi grinned at that as he looked softly at Eren.
"Yeah, I did" he muttered making Eren blush.
The teal eyed boy pulled the raven closer as they exited the library.
"That was a lovely thing to do Eren" Levi whispered. Eren laughed.
"Armin won't feel alone anymore" he explained keeping his phone messages up.
Levi, looked at the brunet, he was just too beautiful to be real. He was perfect, inside and out Levi thought unaware that Eren believed the same about him.
Everything was perfect in that moment because as long as Levi was by his side Eren was sure that he would finally get his so called 'happy ending' and he hoped that Armin would too.
