Any chapter 3 is up and I must start on my math homework ~.~ Even though its 2 in the morning.

Review and enjoy~

Eren tried to leave the infirmary. He wanted to spend most of his time with Annie. Not in here, in this dull room. He hadn't seen her ever since he and Bertholdt fought. He hoped he gets the chance to see her before the end of the day. He sat up, but Mikasa wouldn't allow him. She pushed him back on the bed. He wanted to leave without making a big fuss out of it but Mikasa knowing her won't let it happen.

They both got into an argument.

"Stop! Babying me! I'm not a kid!" Eren yelled.

"Eren, sometimes you act like it!" She yelled back.

"No, I don't!"

"Eren! Look at yourself! Sasha had to drag you here to the infirmary." She shot back.

"Psh! I coulda walk myself, I didn't ask for anyone's help in the first place." He said stubbornly.

"Eren, you must listen to the nurse!"

They kept on bickering back and forth for about an hour. Bertholdt place the pillow over his head. He tried really hard to ignore them, but they kept on getting louder each second passed. He had enough of this childishness.

"Hey! Shut the hell up already!" Bertholdt yelled across from Eren side of the bed. He was stilled pissed about what happen earlier. There's no way Eren was able to take that hit, that squirmy kid actually knocked him out. He felt a bit of shame. He honestly hoped that Reiner doesn't bring it up any time soon. He sighed loudly annoyed.

Mikasa send Bertholdt a murderous glare. He rolled his eyes not feeling intimidated and went back to sleep.

Eren feeling annoyed, took a quick nap so that Mikasa can leave him alone. Mikasa realized that he had a long day, so she left and decided to come back tomorrow morning. She still can't accept the fact that Eren kissed Annie. She must be seeing things, that's must be it. She ignored the pit in her stomach. Mikasa went to her room so that no one can bother her. She would look for Armin later and tell him what has been going on, she hope he can reassure her.

Bertholdt and Eren were both dreaming about Annie. It was a coincidence but they weren't afraid of Annie. They dreamt that Annie was watching them fighting, trying to prove their manliness. Funny how she didn't need them to protect her, after all she can fight despite her height. She seems to remain calm, barely showing any feelings towards anyone at all. Only those who were close to her, which in fact was no one. She remains being very mysterious to this day.

Bertholdt stirred when someone shook him. He opened his eyes and heard the nurse calling his name. The nurse repeated what she said early. She told him that the doctor will be coming in at any moment to see how he was doing. He looked to his left side and Eren was staring at Bertholdt. Both eyes locked onto each other. There was no sign of hate, but rivalry and respect.

"Bertholdt Fubar?" The doctor announced from the door as he looked through the chart.

"Ai!" Bertholdt responded politely.

"Okay well I'm going to do a quick check up and I'll let you know if you can go back to your dorm." He said taking out his stethoscope.

Bertholdt sat still while he examine on him. He checks his ear, and listens to his heartbeat. He then wrote it down.

"Your fine, you can go when I send the nurse to fill out the release form. Make sure you rest for the night if you feel ill come back and check you again."

"Okay, I will." Bertholdt took his clothes and went to the restroom to change.

"Oi, Doc? Can I go too? I feel better now?" Eren asked.

The doctor took one glance at Eren and he flipped through his papers.

He replied "Sorry Jager, it says here you must stay overnight…"

"What?!"

"I'll come in the morning, please take a rest until then." He shut the door behind him as he walked out.

Eren sighed. Bertholdt came out all dressed up and ready to go. He sat on the chair besides Eren waiting patiently until the nurse arrived. Five minute passed and things were getting awkward so he asked Eren some of the question that has been on his mind lately.

"Say Eren, what is Annie to you?" He asked bluntly.

Huh? Why are you asking me this?" Eren asked confused.

"C'mon Eren we're buddies here, we fought earlier I'm just curious that's all."

Eren took a deep breath and he might as answer some question without stirring up any trouble. He was still pretty beat from the fight and from yesterday.

"Uhh, she's my sparring partner duhh!" He lied.

"Okay, so is Mikasa your girlfriend?"

"Ehhhhhhhhh! She's a family! Idiot! Just cause we are not blood related doesn't mean we can go out! I don't see her like that!" Eren said surprised. He was beginning to become suspicious, so he stayed on guard.

"Okay, why'd you stop me from kissing Annie, then?" He said smirking.

"I-i-iii well because um uh it didn-tt seem right and 'side that's lik-ke taking advantage of her without knowing what's going on." Eren stuttered. He tried to turn the situation around by making Bertholdt the bad guy.

"What!? I wouldn't beside she wa-." Bertholdt sentence was cut out when Armin and the nurse came in making the door shut loudly.

"Hello, boys which one is Bertholdt Fubar?" She asked looking at them.

Bertholdt raised his hand.

"Well, than please come along and signed the release form." She said happily. Bertholdt followed her along he looked back and smiled at them. He left without saying a word to either of Eren or Armin.

Armin smiled sheepishly at Eren. He hoped they weren't fighting or anything. Eren smiled back and asked if Mikasa was coming or not.

"No, Mikasa isn't in the mood to walk back and forth." He answered his question.

Eren sighed in relief, he lay back in bed fully relaxed.

"Did you find and talk to Annie today "he asked curious.

"Um yeah she-she ignored me" He said, looking down. Armin didn't want to see Eren face. He felt like he didn't do his job well enough.

Eren slightly disappointed, tried to cheer Armin up. They talked about how they wanted to see the world out there. How things were different. They kept on talking until they had nothing left to discuss. Armin told Eren something that seem to catch him off guard.

"Can you repeat that?"

"Mikasa said she saw you and Annie kissed the night before."

"That's crazy talk!"

"But is it truth?"

"Noooooo! We were just sparring at night, so that I can get better."

They stayed quiet. Armin knew Eren was lying. He can see through everything. Eren was shaking, he looked paler than the ghost sheet. He tried t a different approach.

"The other night, I lied to you!"

"About what?"

"About why I pushed you off!"

"I don't understand Armin?"

"I-I overheard you talking in your sleep, Eren! You were talking to Annie. You seem very happy…Do you like Annie?" Armin said softly.

"…" Eren became silent. He didn't know how to respond. He didn't want the whole world to know that they were going out. He wanted to keep her to himself. Sure, he sounded selfish, but he knew that things were going to get complicated.

"Eren, I promise no one won't find out, so it's okay to tell me." Armin said.

"That's not it, can we not talk about" He said depressed.

"Okay, I'll drop it after I tell you what Mikasa said to me earlier"

"Fine, go ahead."

***Earlier***

Armin was coming back from the training ground. He tried to search for Annie, he had lost her earlier when she didn't reply back. Feeling tired, he went to Mikasa room to see if she came back from checking on Eren.

He knocked on the door lightly. Nothing. He knocked again this time a little harder. Still nothing. He kept on knocking until his arms gave out. He began to walk away, when he heard a small wail. He turned backed around and he twists the knob. The door open and Armin and put his head in, searching the noise.

He saw Mikasa weeping. He ran to her side quickly. Mikasa didn't hear someone in the room. She looked up and Armin held her in her arms. She stopped crying.

"Why are you sad, Mikasa?" He asked softly. It was the first time he saw her in pain. He wanted to know what hurt her and he wanted to close those wound.

"Eren…and Annie!"

"What about them?"

"I-I saw them kiss the night before"

Armin shocked. Eren did what? He asked himself. What was he thinking? Was she messing around? No, Otherwise Mikasa wouldn't be crying?

"Calm down!"

"What am I gonna do Armin? I love him too much to let him go" She said quietly.

"Don't let it get to you. I'm pretty sure it was a misunderstanding. It's Annie! She wouldn't allow that. Now stop crying, okay." He said reassure. He hugged her until she fell asleep.

Mikasa mumbled "Thank you Armin, for being a great friend.

Armin smiled when she said that. He picked her up and placed her on the bed. He covered her in her sheets so that she won't be cold at night. He patted her head and left her room. He shut the door quietly. He was heading towards the infirmary.

***End***

Armin finished explaining Eren about what had happened earlier with Mikasa. No one said anything. You can hear the sounds of crickets chirping. Eren looked at the window, he didn't know what to say. He didn't feel angry nor depressed. He just couldn't right now. He didn't want to deal with this drama.

"Eren? You alright?" Armin asked concern for his longtime friend.

"Yeah, I'm just processing it."

"Oh okay."

The nurse suddenly came in. She told Armin that visiting time was over so she shooed him away.

"Eren! I'll see you tomorrow!" He yelled.

"Now, Jager you will be able to see your friends tomorrow morning once you have been released." She said as she dragged Armin out the door.

Eren gripped the sheet. He honestly didn't know what to do. The only thing that bothers him was Bertholdt. He needed to know what he was about to say. Sure, he was supposed to think about Mikasa but he knew things weren't gonna work out between them. He ONLY sees her as a family. Just like he sees Armin as his brother. He treated them equal.

Eren felt as if Bertholdt was a BIG threat towards his relationship with Annie. The way he talked about her. He replayed the scene over and over. What was it that Bertholdt was going to say before they were interrupted? He was beginning to have a headache. He got up and went to the bathroom to splash water on his face.

Eren sat on top of his bed. Should he ask Annie? Will she'll be angry at him? Yes, she would. But he didn't know how to say it directly. It was too soon, maybe he should wait until it was the right moment. Even though things were just a start he was stilling to be with Annie. He shook his head and he got ready to bed.

*Knock* *Knock*

Eren jumped up from his bed, and he looked around feeling frighten. He didn't hear the noise as he waited, he must be feeling too tired. He sat down again, calming his heart beat down.

*Knock* *Knock*

There it was that noise again. This time Eren was prepared. Alarmed and feeling nervous he waited till the noise came.

*Knock* *Knock*

Eren turned around and he looked at the window. No one was there, he was feeling confused and he moved closer to the window.

*Clink!*

Eren hopped back when he saw a hand popped up from the bush. He inhale and got closer to the window. He gulped as he open the window. He heard a soft giggle. Surprised he stuck his head out and he saw it was Annie.

She laughed at him. Annie felt proud that she was able to scare Eren so easily.

Eren started to laugh, he was feeling happy that Annie actually cared to visit him. He stuck his hand inviting her to his 'room'. In return, she grabbed his hand. He pulled her through the window and carefully put her down.

"Scared you, huh?" She said.

"Yeah you really got me there haha." He grinned happily.

They stood there quiet. Eren feeling shy all of sudden didn't know what to do. This was the first time he had a girlfriend. He didn't have any experience at all so he decided to treat her as he did before.

"Say, you really have a cute laugh" Eren complimented. He moved closer and touched her hair, he pushed it back to where it belongs.

Annie looked at Eren, she blushed. She still felt so unsure of her feelings. She was after all so used to being by herself not allowing anyone to be close to her and treating the world as her enemy. She pushed Eren away from herself and turned her back on him.

He was feeling confused. Did he do something wrong?

"Annie…" He whispered softly.

She looked back at Eren. He looked hurt from her reactions. Annie took something out from her jacket, it appeared to be a small brown paper bag. A doggie bag?

"Sit!" Annie commended. Eren sat down puzzled. What was that she was holding? Annie sat across from him, she pulled something from the bag. It was a sandwich with a small bottle of tea. She ripped it in half and placed it in the middle.

"Looks yummy." He said jokingly.

"I didn't eat dinner, so I decided to bring it with me and share it with you." She shyly replied.

Eren grabbed his half and torn it to pieces. He lift up a piece and moved it to Annie mouth. But Annie refused, she held up her half. Eren leaned over and he took a bite from Annie hands.

"See, it's not that hard!" He exclaimed as he chewed his food.

Annie rolled her eyes and she ate the rest of what was left from Erens bite.

"Hey, isn't that an indirect kiss?" Eren said curious. Annie looked him confused.

"No? I don't think so?"

"Well how about this?" Eren quickly peck her on the lip. He smirked and licked his lip from kissing her.

Annie shocked that Eren was becoming so bold. So she moved their dinner and place it on the chair. She turned back around and forced Eren on his back. He looked at her surprised. Annie leaned in and kisses Eren. Eren heartbeat started to pick up. He kissed her back with more fire. For a minute, they were lost in their little own world. Time stopped and it was just the two of them. They stopped kissing and were catching their breath.

Annie sat up and brought back their dinner to finish it. Eren feeling a bit disappointed but he was glad that they didn't have to talk. The air around them was feeling comfortable enough.

End…Of chapter 3.
