Together, But Not Forever | Eren

Teaser

—Chapter Seventeen's Teaser—

"Hey, Y/N!" Armin approached me with a smile which I responded with a warm smile too.

I sighed happily as I remembered what's going to happen today. "Are you excited, Y/N?" Armin asked, stating the obvious. With a small nod I replied a 'yes' happily.

Eren will be back.

And I'm so damn excited about it. I wonder how he looks like by now? His hairstyle? His way of speaking? His...everything. God, it had been a long time, eh?

"I missed you so much, love!" I greeted happily as I ran towards him, and was about to hug him tightly when his movements caught me off–guard.

What just happened? Did he just...walked passed me like he didn't know me at all? I couldn't absorb it. I didn't even know what to feel now. Should I be happy? Sad? Angry?

I looked to my side and saw Connie looking at me with a face which cannot be painted. I guess he was shocked by the sudden act Eren gave me too.

"What the fuck?!" Jean exclaimed as he pointed his fingers towards him when he was done explaining. I was left in shock too as I stood there.

But it seems like he didn't even care at all and spoke up, "Hands on the table. You wouldn't want it when we talk with violence." He coldly said with pride.

I...couldn't even believe that this is him.

That this man, talking to us right now, is my man, Eren Jaeger. What the hell happened to him when he was away?
___

"What happened, Eren?" I asked desperately, almost crying.

He just shrugged his shoulders as if my question was just nothing as he remained seated on the table. Back then, he hated seeing me cry. He would always comfort me. He would kiss my pain away.

He would always cheer me up. By hook or by crook.

But now, he was just watching me as if I was nothing. As if I was never important to him. Not taking it anymore, tears fell off my eyes which blurred my vision but I didn't bother to tear off my gaze away from him.

I was hoping. I was hoping that he would hurrily come to me, hug me, kiss me, and assure me that everyhing's going to be fine.

But... what he next said tore my heart apart.

"You know what, Y/N Asterhawk? I have always hated you. Seeing your face would almost make me vomit."

Again, what the hell happened?

TBC.
