"Hey, girls, the chef asks wha-whoa Sasha, easy, girl!" Eren barely ducked the garlic Sasha threw at his direction, his hand still on the doorknob.

"Out! It's girls' night!" Sasha kneeled on his bed, garlic already on her hand "Out I say, before I take out the crucifix!"

He hurried to close the door, letting himself fall back on it once he was safe.

"I don't even believe in God" he mumbled, shaking his head and walking back to the kitchen. At least she had taken his nature with humor.

Armin and Jean were trying to cook something while Connie actually cooked. The smaller boy was a master in the kitchen, which led to him being the designed chef every time.

"So what did they say?" Connie tuned to him, a pan in his right hand and stirring something in a pot with the other.

"Nothing. Sasha kicked me out" Eren sat on the kitchen counter, popping in his mouth some kind of vegetable Armin was cutting.

"Eren, get down" he pushed him down, a smile dancing on his lips. They hadn't been friends for a long time, and he had known Eren's secret for less than twelve hours. However, he knew Eren was a good friend.

"Fine, fine" he got down, grabbing some things to help them.

"Your hair is a mess" Jean commented.

"Oh, thanks, Mr. I-can-actually-see-my-face-in-a-mirror" he answered sarcastically, rolling his eyes.

"So…remind me again why are we doing this?"

"We're doing this because Mikasa needed support and we, as friends, have to help" Connie held above his head the spoon he used to stir whatever he was making, as if he was making some kind of very important statement. It kinda was, now that he thought about it.

Mikasa needed to go out with her human friends. She needed the sun, and the warmth humans could provide.

He was cold; he was always in the dark. What kind of boyfriend was he, anyway, not being able to take her out, to just take her on a date without minding the weather? She needed someone who could take her to the beach, someone who could walk on the park with her without ending up as a steaming mess.

"Do you really think she needs help?" Armin broke him out of his thoughts, the blond guy crossing his arms and leaning back supporting himself in the counter "I've known Mikasa for years, and she's been happier in the last year than she's been in all those before"

Eren raised one eyebrow, but stayed silent.

"I have to agree with Armin" Jean sighed, imitating Armin's position and crossing his ankles "Mikasa wasn't the happiest girl back in school and now…" from the bedroom, laughs could be heard. Jean just waved his hand in that direction; bowing his head "I think my point is made"

"I still think she deserves better" he whispers, feeling the stares of the others on him.

"She won't get something much better. I've seen how you treat her man, she's a queen here" Connie patted his back smiling "And what if you can't walk in the sun? I'm gonna buy you a big umbrella and you're coming with us whenever we go from now on"

"And don't worry; we're keeping the garlic away from Sasha" Armin smirked.

"And the crucifixes" Connie added.

"And the holy water" Jean nodded.

"Where did she get that from?!" Connie looked at him with wide eyes.

"She spent the weekend with my mother. Sorry"

"I'm dead" Eren groaned.

"Oh really? Hadn't noticed"

"I'm half human, asshole"
