God, what did Armin get himself into?
After the sudden death of his mother Armin's family was left with no choice but to go back to their old town, where Armin's own childhood took a place. For the first few days everything seemed normal, until thi...

Summary The heat is unbearable and the boys can no longer study in peace
Doesn't anyone find it weird how hot it is despite it being already Fall?
Nevertheless in this town it felt warm and sunny almost all year. It almost never snowed. People there used to have warm Christmas and some even tended to spent it around the sea. Not everyone could brag with this, right?
And this particular Friday evening in Fall wasn't any different. Maybe a little hotter that is. Don't even ask Armin what it felt like running around the school yard earlier today. Like in an oven.
His room didn't have a fan which didn't bother him until now.
Right now he was laying on the floor of his bedroom pulling the edge of his T-shirt, hoping for some fresh air to brush against his hot skin. His hair was tied in a very small ponytail behind his head. He groaned and wiped the small drops that appeared on his forehead.
"I've decided it. Is your fridge big enough?" The other boy wailed, seeming to be in the same position as Armin.
They gave up on homework long time ago. It wasn't possible in this unbearable heat.
It's been three weeks since they started studying together. It didn't stop only to biology, they started doing their homework and studying for every subject with the promise that both sides would help.
"I've got a test tomorrow" Eren whispered behind the small boy who right now was looking through his locker.
"I usually say hello but I guess that works too" he closed the door of his locker and turned around. It was risky for them to talk in school and they both knew it. They didn't communicate at all outside Armin's bedroom and it seemed like Eren even didn't act like a total jerk to his friends all the time like he used to.
Armin promised himself to tell them someday that he's tutoring him, he just never seemed to find the right time. Maybe next time he sees them.
Eren rolled his eyes and Armin felt good for annoying him. It was obvious that the taller boy also didn't want people to see him with some shaggy little boy and that's why Armin always tried to slow down the conversations.
"Come on. Can't we have another lesson today? It's on math this time"
"Eren, if you want to get high scores so bad go find professional help, I'm not your personal teacher" Armin said calmly while getting all the books he needed for his next classes. Damn, they were heavy.
Eren sighed. He took the books out of his hands. "What do you have next?"
"Uh, english" he answered a little bothered. Did the popular boy decided to carry his books?
