track seven

Eren and Armin eventually left the treehouse and forest so they could return to their homes. Eren, of course, gave the other boy a farewell kiss before he left.

Armin’s grandfather stopped him as he walked into the house.

“Where were you Armin? You had me worried sick.” he asked with a stern look on his face.

“Oh, I’m sorry Grandfather! I was out with a friend, I should’ve called. It won’t happen again, I promise,” the blond replied. 

His grandfather’s expression softened. “Okay, I forgive you. Now go get some rest, you have school tomorrow.”

Armin nodded and made his way up the stairs.

Once he got into his bedroom, he though about everything that had happened that day. He thought about how they were going on a date tomorrow and how good of a kisser Eren was. He analyzed everything Eren said, searching for even the slightest sign of a lie, and he found none. The day was perfect.

Once again, he fell asleep smiling.

—————

When he awoke the next morning, it wasn't to the sound of his alarm clock. He woke to the sound of his phone buzzing. Confused, he looked at it.

Eren Jaeger, 6:45 AM:

good morning gorgeous (:

Armin blushed and buried his face in his pillow smiling. He waited two minutes before replying so it wouldn't seem like he was too eager to reply.

Me, 6:47 AM:

Good morning, Bright Eyes! How did you sleep?

Eren Jaeger, 7:48 AM

i slept well :3

Armin has learned that when Eren texts, he uses too many shortcuts and abbreviations and too few punctuation marks. He also uses too many emoticons and emojis than necessary, but it fit him. His texting style reflected his often carefree attitude. Occasionally though, he will lose his temper and that carefree attitude slips away.

Their conversation carried on for about 10 more minutes until Armin had to get out of his bed and begin getting ready. He told Eren that he had to go and began his morning routine. After he finished, he grabbed his backpack and a piece of toast and then he was on his way to school.

The school day carried on as any other would, with the exception of Eren dropping by his lunch table to say hi.

By the time seventh period was about to finish, Armin was practically bouncing in his seat, filled with nervous energy for his and Eren’s date after class. He wondered where they would go and how long it would take. He wondered if he was going to fuck it up or if it will go smoothly.
