Not The One Who Dies ⇀ Attack on Titan *Original*

Part 42: Atop the World

Logan stormed from the room, huffing with anger did everyone really expect him to go along with the plan of welcoming the monster that killed his brother back onto the island with open arms.

"Bullshit, she wants to bring that beast here I'll gut all of em-" Logan spat at himself, rage and anger filling his body. He stomped throughout the fancy building, walking towards the exit.

"Hey! Wait up there, Mr.'Beast Slayer'!" Armin's voice was heard echoing throughout the halls. Logan grunted as he kept stomping.

"What?!" Logan shouted, finally stopping as he turned to face the boy. His face quickly heated up as he realized he snapped at the boy.

"Shit, I'm sorry-" Logan apologized as Armin walked up to him, a slight frown on his face.

"It's fine, It's understandable. But there's not much you can do right now is there? I mean what, you plan on flying to Marley on your own?" Armin teased causing Logan to raise his eyebrows at the idea. Armin's eyes widened at his expression quickly shaking his head.

"No, no no no! It was a joke! That's a horrible idea!" Armin said causing a small smile to come to Logan's lips, laughing at the boys reaction. While he wasn't going to complain, normally no one was able to snap the boy out of his anger like that.

"Relax, Blonde. I have too much going on here to up and leave." Logan spoke causing Armin to furrow his eyebrows.

"You do realize you're blonde too right?" Armin asked as Logan walked towards the door, throwing his head back in laughter.

"Yes, I do. I just need to come up with another nickname for you." Logan spoke causing Armin to roll his eyes at the boy, joining him in his walk towards the exit.

"So uh, what do you have planned tonight?" Armin asked causing Logan to smile at the thought, remembering what he was doing that night.

"Oh uh, I'm taking Cloud flying. He's begged me to take him on a ride with ODM gear since I took him in." Logan spoke causing Armin's eyes to widen.

"Is that even safe? I mean what if a line breaks? Or what if you mess up with the extra weight or what-" Armin stuttered out causing Logan to smirk and grasp his wrist.

"Armin, you do know who trained me to use the gear right?" Logan asked, thinking back to the memories of a simpler time of Levi training the boy, Eld laughing as Logan failed. A ping of pain hit his heart as he remembered the man.

"But still-" Armin spoke causing Logan to cut him off once more.

"If you're that worried, why don't you come along then?" Logan asked out, his voice filled with confidence and charisma as he remembered the kiss the two shared the night before. Armin's eyes widened as a blush came to his face.

"Oh uhm- I guess I can! As long as it wouldn't borrow Cloud!" Armin said causing Logan to playfully scoff and shake his head.

"Please, that kid loves you. It's getting to the point where he talks about you more than me." Logan spoke causing Armin to smile softly.

"Getting a little jealous there, Mr.'Beast Slayer'?" Armin asked causing Logan to roll his eyes and chuckle before stopping right next to the door, turning to face the boy.

"Maybe a little bit, but don't get a big head over it." Logan said causing Armin to scoff and fold his arms over his chest.

"Can't let me get one win can ya?" Armin asked, a small smirk forming on his face.

"I did last night didn't I?" Logan teased with a wink causing a bright blush to rise to Armin's face as Logan leaned forwards, placing a small kiss on the boys cheek.
