"Sasha, we wouldn't be cute" she rolled her eyes, her spoon moving the ice cream from one side of the plate to the other.

"Yes you would! And Armin agrees!" reaching for her glass the brown haired girl smiled, her fork in the air pointing at her friend as she gulped down her juice.

"I have barely spoken three words to him, how can you say that?"

"It's just so…natural to think of you together! You have to admit he is handsome, and he made you laugh" Sasha shrugged, her eyes shining with mischief as Mikasa rolled her eyes again, not really believing her friend was saying such things.

"You're being ridiculous" she shook her head, her black hair tickling her nose.

"Am not!" she gasped, her hand dramatically resting in her chest.

"Are too"


"Completely not ridiculous, you're going to thank me one day"

"Yes you are, Armin. I don't really know her! We may not have anything in common!" Eren frowned, his eyes never leaving the paper he was writing on.

"I actually know both of you and I know you have a lot in common" Armin closed his book, both of his hands resting one above each other as he tried to stay serious "Besides, you have to admit you felt something when you saw her"

"Yes, I felt something, happy now? She was gorgeous and funny and kind and a lot of other thing and she probably doesn't even remember my name" Eren slapped his pen down, trying to burn Armin with his stare.

"Well, we'll figurate it out soon! Sasha is having a party this Friday and you, my friend, are coming"


It was not a party, not exactly. Just a bunch of friends hanging out, some beers, music…and her.

She had a beer on her hand, and she was talking with Armin and he couldn't help but get closer to them.

"Hey Eren" Sasha spoke from behind him, quickly to catch up and walk beside him "So…Mikasa, eh?"

"Not you too" he groaned throwing his head back.

"Oh, yeah, me too" she grinned, locking eyes with Armin and raising her eyebrows.

"Anyway, Mikasa" the blond smiled, taking a step back "I really have to go help Sasha here, so I'll just leave you with Eren!" he turned around, grabbing a giggling Sasha by her arm and dragging her away.

"Don't have too much fun!"

"I'm really sorry about that" Mikasa said with her eyes downcast, once their friends left.

"It's really nothing" he shrugged "I'm sorry too, they shouldn't be doing this"

"It could be worse" she bit her lip, lifting her beer to her lips. He had to stay quit for a moment, almost too stunned to do anything else.

"Yeah, it could be much worse" he imitated her as they smiled and a faint blush appeared on their cheeks.

Lots worse.
