Eren rarely had time to settle down. After his titan business, when he would arrive home, he would be exhausted. So exhausted to the point where he would poke at his food a bit, take a sip of water, and then eventually resign to the couch.

Even though Eren was stubborn, he couldn't win the fight against his high melatonin levels. Tonight was different, he came home less tired, his back straight rather than hunched.

He had a different look in his eyes than usual, his eyes no longer expressing dullness, it was more of excitement gleaming through. He shut the door and immediately smiled to you.

"Levi said I did good today." he said as he sat down on the stool at the kitchen island.

He picked up his fork and rather than fumbling with the meal, he dug the silverware into a piece of lettuce.

"You seem less tired than usual." you said softly, smiling seeing him actually happy.

"You know what we should do, watch a movie!" Eren exclaims.

He was never excited like this after work, so his offer was something you couldn't refuse. You shook your head in agreement. His face lighting up at your acceptance to the idea as he plunged back into his salad.

Eren pulled himself into the couch with a few snacks as well. He sipped a bit of his soda, that would eventually send him into a sugar high.

"Hurry Y/N! The movie is going to start" he shouts to you.

You walk over to the couch and sit down as well. Organizing yourselves comfortably on the sofa, he finally hit play. You hated scary movies personally, but Eren was so excited to hang out, so you kept quiet about your discomfort.

As the movie started, it was already intense. Intense screams were heard, projecting from the monitor in front of you as the movie began. The camera panned to a person standing in a shadow menacingly, sending a shock through your body.

You jolted in fear, as a fight or flight response you grabbed onto Erens lose shirt and pulled your face behind his arm.

"Scared already?" he asked softly, turning his head to you.

You shook your head in disagreement. He pushed his index finger on one of the remote buttons and the movie came to a halt.

"It's only a few seconds in?" he questions.

"Noo, i'm not scared. I just was, shocked." you responded in protest to his teasing manor.

"Sure.. shocked" he said doing air quotes around the word shocked.
"I'm starting to miss when you came home tired." you reply rolling your eyes.

You peeled yourself off his sleeve and stood up stealing a handful of his popcorn and gave him a teasing smile, running off, knowing Eren would be able to catch you easily hence he was quite physically skilled.

After sprinting to the kitchen, two arms wrapped around your waste from behind lifting you up in the air not allowing you to leave the grasp you were put in.

"Aw, don't be so glum. You cant beat me." he says smirking.

All you did was reply by rolling your eyes in annoyance. He gave you a cheeky smile and gave you a small kiss on your cheek.

"My little scaredy cat." he says laughing before dropping you and running off to the living room, having you following close behind.
