Underneath the Ruffles

Past Due

Levi.

That was the only word that had been buzzing through my head all week.

He was extremely beautiful, to my embarrassment, I would have to be with him on a daily basis now....

Since last week we were only able to meet up once, we were planning on going to a Cafe later today. After all, we'd only met each other last week, and we hardly know one another. Beside the fact that he assumes I'm gay, we know basically nothing about the other one. At all.

My daydreaming was interrupted when I felt a sharp object poke my arm.

I pretended not to notice. Trying to catch my train of though again.

Poke.

Poke.

"Eren.... are you okay?"

Oh Wall Maria.....

" Eeeeeereen! Snap out of your fantasies, we wanna watch a movie and we need your innpuuuuuttt!"

I flopped my head back and fell backwards, sinking further into the leather couch. I stared back at the two sets of eyes that were at the moment, glaring at me.

We were at Armin's house today, we Always were on Thursdays. That was our movie night. We would all pack into his big cushy couch, eat popcorn and watch a movie. That's how it's always been.

"Okay! Okay! No need to get your panties in a twist!"

I sat up, my voice sounding more groggy than I would've liked.

"We weren't the ones having fantasies,"

"Humph!" I crossed my arms, in an imitation of being a pouty brat.
Which I wasn't, but Levi had called me a brat, right?

"Stop! your doing it again Eren!" Armin whined.

"Eren, just tell us which you would rather see. 'Big Hero 6' or, 'Clueless'?"

Mikasa's eyes were glued to the Tv ready to select either one.

Armin sat patiently, adjusting his big, red framed glasses. Then turned back to me as I braced. Myself for a hug.

Nothing....

That's Odd, usually when Armin fixes his glasses. He will jump on me for a hug.

I cracked open one of my eyes to see Armin half launched into the air, standing completely still. Like I don't even think the kid was breathing.

His mouth was a gape with fear,  as his already large eyes grew to the size of fucking watermelons.

His small chest began to finally take in some air, as he closed his mouth. He was sucking Oxygen through is petite nose like his life depended in it.
Well, now that I think about it, it actually kind of did.

Mikasa was turned our direction as well, most likely, confused as I was. Considering that she was making a really weird face.

"UUUWAAAHHGGHHHH!!! THERRSAMOISEINTGEHOUSETHERESAMOUSEINTHEHOUUUUUSSSEEE!!!!!!"

I felt the hairs in the back of my neck prickle.

Mikasa and I both questioned in unison,

"A what?!"

He snaps his head back at us like he was just bitch slapped. His expression was also pretty scary. He literally looked as if his best fiend had just died before his eyes.

Then he whispered harshly,

"A mouse."

"UUUWAAGGGAAAAA!!!"

"AAAAWAAAAWHAAAAWHAAAAWHAA!!!"

"YAWAAWSSWFGAAAA!"

We were all pulling are hair and wiggling around like worms on the cozy leather couch.

God.... I'm really sorry guys. I haven't updated in like FOREVER!!!!! This chapter sucks, I know. But I promise there will soon be a good one that actually helps with the plot.
