A/n I just would like to start off by saying thanks. I've seen a lot of people reading this story and it actually makes me really happy maybe it is stupid to get excited over just a few comments but it is nice to share this with other people lol so thanks for reading this and i hope you like this chapter!
Mikasa's POV:
When I get inside of my apartment I go into my bathroom and look in the mirrior. My reflection smiles back at me as I pull my hair back so it's just loose enough I can get a idea of what it would look like. Before I can even think I find myself grabbing the sissors and sniping away. This isn't the first time I've cut my hair so it turns out even. I change into some pajamas, which is just a blue hoodie and some shorts. It's starting to get cold so I just wear this hoodie. It's streched out from being so old though so now it passes down to my lower thigh but my shorts poke out just a bit. Before I lay down I remember I wanted to show Eren my hair. I reach over for my phone and unlock it. I go to my contacts and text the only number in my phone.
-Mikasa txt "Hey Eren are you still awake?"
-Eren txt "Yeah. Why? What do you want?"
-Mikasa txt "You seem grumpy again :/"
-Eren txt "Sorry, but fr what do you want?"
-Mikasa txt "Can I come over real quick???"
-Eren txt "That's a very random thing to ask, but sure."
-Mikasa txt "Ok unlock your door and don't look when I come in."
-Eren txt "Jeez are you gonna rob me blind?"
-Mikasa txt "Sure but I'm coming now."
-Eren "ok"
Eren's POV:
I unlock my door and sit on the island in the kitchen and look away. Mikasa knocks on the door and says that she was coming in. Still looking away she comes in and sits stands infront of me. "Look!" she says while looking down at the ground, I can see her face dusted with red. Is she embarressed? I wonder why. "Oh, you actually cut your hair." I say in astonishment "Do you like it?" she says this as her face keeps getting reder. Ok now I'm concered is this heat stroke? "Yeah it looks very nice." I saw while messing with her hair, it's so soft. "But I do have to ask, are you ok?" I ask "Yeah...why?" she asks almost as if I'm interogating her "Your face is pretty red." I say bluntly. At the she walks away and sits down "Shut up. " she says while putting on her hood and pulling the strings all the way. "Wh- Ohhhh" I say as I understand "but why is it embarressing to show me your hair?" I really don't understand girls sometimes. I walk over by her and sit down.
"So what's up I guess."
"I'm not talking to you."
"Then why are you in my apartment sitting on my couch, not talking to me because you were embarressed." I say that while yanking her hood off "Also you shouldn't leave your hood on, I like your hair so don't hide it." I say with a smile. That sounded weird, huh I guess this is what genuine friends do, so I'm just taking this the way I see other people do it. To be honest I have no clue how to make a friend so I've just been watching Historia and Ymir (a/n...see what i did there) they make pretty good examples I suppose, they aren't already friends and they are the only people I can really pay attention to. "Hey I have a question, why did you cut your hair though?" I ask her with a smile "Well because you said you thought it would look good." she says while grabbing her hood and pulling it again. "Well what about what you thought?" I ask. She only opens her hood and smiles. After a minute or two of just sitting, for once it start to feel akward, I try breaking the thick scilence but can't find words to say. What would Historia and Ymir do, well Ymir usally messes with Historia's hair or Historia would hug her. I don't wanna scare her though. "Hey Mikasa," I start "Yeah?" she replys "can I hug you?" without a response she hugs me first. Well I have no planned for this, that's not how it usally goes for Ymir and Historia. I decide to hug her back and stroke her hair. It really is soft. You know, I'm starting to really care about her. She is my friend now. I will protect her.
Mikasa POV:
I can feel Eren stroking my hair...I really do care about him. There is more to him than I can even imagine. I hug him tighter, we stay in this hug for about two minutes but it just feels right. It isn't really akward, but it just feels nice.
*Mini Time Skip*
I wake up and my pillow and blanket feel warmer than usual. I snuggle in closer to my pillow. 'Finally a Saturday.' I think to myself. Then I feel something move, I bolt away out of reflex. I see Eren laying on his couch still half asleep. I feel my face burning when I remember last night. I run into what I think is the bathroom and trip and fall as soon as I open the door. Nope this was his bedroom. If I wake him up then he'll think it was my intention to stay her or think I have ulterior motives. Shoot I don't know where I left my key for my apartment. I keep searching for the bathroom and finally found it. I walk in to look at the mirror and my hair was messy. I shake my head and run my fingers through it. I can see how red my face is, I look like a fire truck. I take some water and splash my face. I do not know what to do. I walk out and see a clock, it read '6:40' hm I usually sleep in until 8. I must have slept really good, 'Yeah maybe because of Eren' the thought keeps inturpting my thoughts and pushing it's way in my head. After a bit it goes away. I decide to crawl back on the couch and wait for him to wake up and then I can find my key. Before I know it, I slip back into the peaceful darkness of sleep.
Eren's POV:
I wake up to see Mikasa laying right by me sound asleep. For what ever reason, I don't really panic. I guess friends have sleep overs all the time and she dosen't seem bothered by it so I guess that's just one more step to being better friends? She looks so peaceful and happy. I don't wanna wake her up, I reach my arm over her and she burrows in to me and the blankets. I lay there for about an hour before she wakes up. She looks at me and I can see her face get dusted with light pink. "What time is it?" she mumbles while rubbing her eyes, "It is 10:30 now." I say while looking at the clock across from me. "Hey, so um I lost my key last night. I didn't want to go through your stuff so will you look for it?" she say still half tired, I get up and look around but I still haven't found anything. How did she loose something so easily. Not to brag but my apartment is always tidy. After about 20 minutes we find it under the couch cushions. My apartment may be clean but I can't say the same with couch. I find about 5 dollars in change and a red scarf. I forgot about this, I'll have to wear it in the winter. I give her, her phone and key. She leaves so I get ready to get in the shower. I pull my shirt over my head and grab a towel from my room. I hear the door click open, and see Mikasa as she apologizes and runs away. Hm...I'm surprised she freaked out that much.
Mikasa POV:
I don't think this friendship will work. I care about him. I'm not sure just yet, but he...he is different.
A/n I'm sorry this chapter seems so rushed but if i can pull it off this wont seem all too rushed. Also sorry for not posting yesterday, like I said I have exams and school.
