Pretending (Ereri/Riren)

Part {6} - Finding Eren?

Mikasa's POV

I left school as soon as it finished to look for Eren. We had the last two remaining periods together and he didn't come to either of those classes. So naturally, of course I'd be worried. Even if I was adopted and wasn't his real sister, I still cared for him deeply. After my parents were killed he gave me his red scarf and his family took me in when we were kids.

That's besides the point. Right now I need someone to help me.

I looked around looking for someone familiar. I spotted Jean but he saw me and quickly hid among a crowd of students. I think he was trying to hide from me probably because of what happened this morning. But who is he trying to fool? Anyone can tell it's him from a distance with his horse face looking ass face.

I go up to him and grabbed him from behind, surprising him.

"Oi, help me find Eren." I bluntly told him. "I don't know where he is and I've already tried calling him."

"What if his phone died? Or maybe he's already at home?" he asked stammering over a few words and looking at the positive side.
"He always has his phone charged and whenever he doesn't answer, it most likely means that he's not at home," I told him anxiously.

"Favorite places to go to? Maybe a beach, park, movies, or I don't know, a festival?" Jean suggested. "Hmm... Wait I think I know where he might be!" I exclaimed. "Thank you Jean!"

Eren's POV

I said I was going to a nearby park but instead my mind subconsciously decided to go to a particular park.

When I finally got control of my mind I realized where I was but didn't have any plans of moving to another place. I hopped onto one of the swings and started swinging back and forth. It's kinda funny if you think about a teenager having fun on the swings but  then again, no one had the right to judge me.

I stopped moving and closed my eyes for a couple of seconds.

The moving wind passing my face made me relax, so I sat there without moving and dozing off at the sky.

While I was watching at the sky, I noticed that the sun was setting and remembered that I was nowhere near my house. I wonder what Mikasa is doing right now. Oh right, Mikasa. She'll probably nag me to death when I get home.

When I got up, I heard someone huffing and puffing near the entrance of the park. I walked over to them only to realize that person was Mikasa.

"Mikasa? What are you doing here?" I asked her with a worried look. "Ereh!" She yelled out with a happy smile. She also caught me off guard when she gave me a big hug to which of course I gladly accepted by hugging her back.

I could feel her tears through my shirt to the point that it made me feel like a heartless jerk. "Sorry I made you worry about me," I told her while patting her head.

"Why'd you leave?" Mikasa questioned me. "I'll tell you on the way home. But first, hop on my back, I can tell you're tired."

"Ok," Mikasa replied

After she hopped on my back, she ended up going to sleep the moment she felt comfortable.

I couldn't even start explaining all the drama.

I chuckled under my breath and started walking out of the park.

Mm? Are those people moving out? Kinda strange doing it in the night but you do you I guess. Oh and hey, that boy kind of looks like Levi. Eh, must be a coincidence.

I brushed the thought off my mind, paying no mind to it and continued walking.
