A few days had passed, and they have been quite eventful at high school. Eren and Mikasa walked to school every morning with Armin, and they always ate lunch together.
Mikasa had to be in her club every day right after lunch, while Eren had his club only an hour after. Armin's was during late morning, right before lunch.
Since high school began, Mikasa and Armin were getting top grades, while Eren's were often below average.
Sasha has been caught about ten more times eating snacks during class, and Connie miserably failed classes. He was even worse than Eren.
Eren, Mikasa and Armin arrived at school that morning, on time. "Geez, I'll never get the hang of this!", Eren complained, as they stood at their lockers.
"Really? After five days, you're still not used to this?", asked Armin frowning.
"He stays up real late playing video games", Mikasa simply said. "It can't be helped, Mikasa! By the time I get my homework done, I only got an hour of game time! An hour's not near enough!", Eren whined.
"You should be using that hour to sleep", Mikasa pointed out.
"Give me a break, Mikasa! Don't you have any idea how important that game is to me?!", Eren asked.
"It's just pixels on a screen, Eren", Mikasa said back. "What?!", Eren gawked at her, as if horrified she could think such a thing.
"She's got a point", Armin smiled nervously.
"Seriously? That's how productive you are, Jaeger?", Jean spoke up then, his locker was close by. Eren blinked, frowning.
"What's your problem?", he asked, annoyed.
"I'm just saying, you're in high school, not grade school", Jean stated. Eren glared, clenching his fists.
"Eren, reel it in", Mikasa whispered, but Eren ignored her.
"Like you're any better than me!", Eren growled. "What was that, you little brat?", Jean growled.
"Give me a break, you're my age!", Eren yelled back, as the two glared at each other. Some students backed up, along with Armin.
"Eren!", Mikasa hissed, as she took his hand then.
"Knock it off", she growled. Eren glanced at her, as she gave him a pleading, but firm look, gripping his hand.
Eren sighed, as he backed down then.
Jean scoffed. "Seriously?! You let your sister fight your battles for you?", he asked. Eren suddenly glared.
"You smart mouthed, bastard!", Eren went to swing a punch at Jean, but suddenly he felt his body be lifted up.
Mikasa lifted him up onto her shoulder, not even breaking a sweat as she began carrying him out. "MIKASA! HEY! Put me down! Didn't you hear what that bastard said?!", Eren complained.
Mikasa shot Jean a glare, as she continued to carry Eren out.
"What the hell was that...", Jean said.
