To the Moon and Back (A modern Eremika fanfic)

Chapter 9: Reason Why

Mikasa's POV:

I felt my eyelids turning peach. I opened them and took in all the sunlight breaking through the window. I looked over and saw Eren sleeping on my chair. I'm still holding on to his arm and started smiling because I remembered he was sweet enough to sleep next to me. I let go and sat up, stretching my arm towards the ceiling. I yawn and looked over once again towards Eren. I noticed he was drooling a bit and laughed a bit.

"How can someone so mysterious be so cute?" I said out loud.

I carefully got up so as not to wake Eren and went to the kitchen. I started to make breakfast for the both of us, my signature scrambled egg sandwich. I was cooking the eggs when I heard my door open. I looked over to see Eren rubbing his eyes.

Mikasa: "Haha. Morning drooly."

Eren: "Drooly?" he asked yawning.

Mikasa: "Haha you were drooling like crazy. There's still someone you," pointing at his mouth.

Eren: "Wait wh-," he then wipes his face while I started laughing. "Thanks."

Mikasa: "I should be thanking you for sleeping beside me. How did you sleep by the way? I hope you weren't uncomfortable."

Eren: "I slept fine haha. I wasn't uncomfortable... Well, I was uncomfortable because the chair had to support."

Mikasa: "Aww I'm sorry to hear that. You should've brought a sleeping bad," I said with a smirk and little sass.

Eren: "Well I wasn't expecting to be sleeping at your house, let alone in your room... next to you!" looking away.

I blushed a bit and started laughing

Eren: "By the way, something burning?"

Mikasa: "No. Just my eg- MY EGGS!" I screamed as I looked back and saw my eggs burning.

I attempted to save my creation to no avail. I slid down the island and sat on the floor, disappointed with myself.

Mikasa: "Damnit. I was excited for you to try my egg sandwichs," hanging my head between my legs

Eren: "Go over there," pointing to the living room.

Mikasa: "Why?" bring my head.

Eren: "I told you to trust me didn't I?"

I smirked at him and then went over and sat down. I sat with my arms folded looking at the window. Every time I tried to look over, Eren would yell at me to turn around.

Eren: "Hey by the way!" yelling from the kitchen, "Where are your parents?"

Mikasa: "My dad's shift ends later this afternoon and my mom left at 6 because she has a very early appointment."

Eren: "I remembered when my dad would always pick me up from school when his shift ended in the afternoon."

Mikasa: "Really? My dad would just wait for me at home, usually had an afterschool snack for me."

Eren: "Ya. He would sometimes take me to GameStop when I got my allowance or get floats at our favorite restaurant and umm..." he didn't finish his sentence and just became silent.

Mikasa: "Eren?"

No response

Mikasa: "Eren?"

No response

Mikasa: "EREN?!" I turned around shouting.

Eren: "Huh?... Oh sorry. I just got a bit upset. Sorry for zoning out like that."
