YOU TAKE A SIP OF YOUR COFFEE WHEN MIKASA AND LEVI WALK IN

both looking like train wrecks. "Walk of shame?" you question and Levi rolls his eyes before stealing the mug out of your hand and gulping the hot liquid like a mad man.

Mikasa shakes her head, "I don't know.. but I do know that Armin and I had sex so yeah, kinda."

Levi chokes and you give her a surprised look, "What?"

"We had sex." she says casually and takes a sip of coffee, "It's a pact thing between him and I."

Silence.

"So Levi are you ready to admit you are seeing Félice when you're out of town." she air quotes and Levi keeps a straight face like always.

"I don't know what you're talking about and I hope you're using protection."

You couldn't believe the two but it was entertaining. "I saw y/n leave with Jean last night!"

"What the hell?" you laugh around your spoon and avoid Levi's glare. "He took me home and that's it."

Mikasa gives you a look and you give one back, "I'm the only one admitting the truth around here!" she raises her hands and walks away with a groan.

"Keep it down my head is still pounding."

Mikasa puts her sunglasses on when walking through the parking lot.

"So Armin?" you question, both of you waiting for the other to say something about this morning.

"It's just sex." she shrugs, "We're best friends and it's better than doing it with a stranger."

"I guess that's fair." you couldn't see a problem if it didn't hurt the relationship like you and Eren. That relationship was down the drain by now. You walk down the hallway and spot Armin with a brown paper bag in hand.

"For you and you." he hands out breakfast sandwiches and you thank him with a smile. Mikasa and Armin break out into a conversation like normal and you see Eren from afar behind him. He was walking alone and looking down at his phone.

"Eren!" Mikasa calls out and he looks up then walks over to the group.

"I'm surprised you two came to school." he jokes slightly.

The blonde laughs, "Me too, I could barely sleep because of you and whoever you were with in your room." Armin rubs his eyes and checks the time, "Shit I have lab." 

"I go that way." Mikasa takes his hand and they walk off together.

Now it was just you and Eren.

He reaches into his backpack, "Do you mind turning these in for me?"

In his hands are assignments due from both of the classes you had with him. You take a breath and nod, "Sure."

Eren checks his phone again, "Thanks." he says mindlessly and walks past you without another look. "Yeah, I'm on my way. I'll send you the restaurant." he says into the phone.

You knew this would be how things turned out but you didn't expect it to hurt this much. You saw Eren as a fling and how did that make you any better than him? 

It didn't.

eren's pov


Eren parks at the restaurant and sighs when his mother hugs him tightly. He closes his eyes and feels strong emotions coming over him, "Mom.." he whispers.

She stays silent and rubs the back of his head soothingly, "I came as fast as I could, tell me what's wrong."

Eren pulls away and shrugs, "I don't know how to do anything." he mumbles, "I mean I think I do and then it all goes wrong."

Carla smiles sadly at her sun and rubs his cheeks, "Babe you're doing your best and that's all you can do, no one can be perfect." she tries to help, "But I think you're perfect."

He couldn't help but show a small smile, "You're only saying that because you have to."

"I don't." she hums, "I say that because I know you and I know that your persistence and hard work will get you farther than you think."

Eren didn't know how much he needed his mother until now, maybe he needed to get away and set his priorities straight.

They sit down in a booth and order drinks, "How long are you staying for?" he asks.

Carla shrugs, "I don't know." she sighs, "I'm looking at places but.. no place feels like home. Let's not worry about that, I'm here now so tell me what's really going on."

There was a moment of silence, Eren thought he had grown out of crying to his mother about girls but he was mistaken. "I met this girl." he starts and instantly she's intrigued, it's been years since he's talked about a relationship.

"Yeah?" Carla takes a sip of her water.

"At first it was hardly friendship I mean we tolerated each other." he looks down at the table, "But then we got close, I guess. No we did, we got very close." he smiles in remembrance. "Then we started seeing each other secretly and.."

"And?"

"And she broke it off."

He knew what was coming next —

"What did you do?"

Eren frowns, "What? I thought I was perfect to you."

Carla laughs, "You are but when it comes to girls, you know I have to be on their side."

Her son rolls his eyes playfully, "We would run into my old flings and it made her uncomfortable, understandably but I was hurt— didn't try to reassure or fight for her and instead said to consider her and what we had, forgotten."

His mother was in shock, it sounded brutal.

"I mean we were so close mom and do so good.. I even fucking— sorry freaking got her an extra toothbrush for my place and stuff for her cycle." 

There was more silence.

"Go get her."

Eren looks up at his mother with a confused expression, "Huh?"

"You want this girl? You have to go get her and if she rejects you— fine, but let her know that she's not just a fling. Let her know that you're in love with her."

"I never said love—" he begins to say.

"I know love when I see it and you are definitely in love with her."
