«Mimi are you ready? » Armin asked without looking up his phone, cursing under his breath as he read his course group chat get anxious over stupid things. As always. Eren was sitting on the couch, with his hair down, and he was on his phone too, playing some game.

«Ok, how do I look? » Both raised their head at the same time. Her monochrome outfits were maybe one of her signature traits and suited her perfectly. Armin smiled and showed his thumbs up. «You're beautiful as always Mimi. »

«Oh gosh, my little sister is too beautiful for this ugly world, I have to protect her! » Eren said getting up from the couch and stepping closer to Mikasa and hugging her and Mikasa didn't react but smiled.

«I'm older than you. And I don't need to be protected.»

«Shh, they don't know. » Eren patted her head and looked at her slim figure with a proud grin on his face. Mikasa rolled her eyes. Eren was really protective over his closes ones, exaggerated even. Wasn't he the one that almost killed a man just to protect Mikasa when she was 9?  

For a while, Eren and Armin were the only "men" that she could get close to, even Mr. Jeager was too much for her, who didn't do anything bad and he was so comprehensive, even if she didn't say a word about it to anyone. Maybe because not a word was needed to that, not a word could describe the feeling. 

«Thanks, Eren. » She said with a soft smile, gripping the sleeve hem as she used to do when they were little and he patted her head, kissing her forehead. He knew how hard was for her to accept herself, and seeing her being confident with her persona made him feel proud of her.

«Let's go? I don't want to be late. » Mikasa said looking at Armin who nodded, grabbing the car keys and heading for the door.

«At your command, ma'am! »

«You like it? » 

«That's cool, I really like it. Well done... » Y/n already started to move in during those two days, occupying Annie's empty room. For now, she just took a few clothes, makeup, and sheets since she was staying above all for the early classes in the morning. Annie's landlord didn't complain about it, instead, he seemed happy and would meet him the next day to arrange rent and other details. 

Her parents didn't agree with that. Her mother called her reckless and spoiled. She faked it didn't hurt, her mother always knew when to say the most unnecessary things. But they understood the problem, more like only her father, and they accepted to help her financially until she got a job.

«Wanna go out? There's like a party tonight... law students... and also our association joined... »

«Never liked them... and  I think I'll pass, I have some work to do if I want to live here. »

«Already found work? » Annie ask raising her brow surprised looking at her friend's computer screen.

«For now I'll start with resuming books or writing notes, they pay well. But it's temporary, I'll find something. I also wrote it on Spotted. »

«Well, that sucks. Why don't you start tutoring? Or babysit? »

«Still don't know, maybe I can work for the uni's library? Honestly, I like children only when they don't scream and I just see them for like a sec.  »

«That's a good idea. Way better than resuming books. Or screaming children. » Y/n laughed while she sat on the chair near the desk, looking at Annie who laid on the bed.

«If you want to go to the party just go, don't think about me. » Y/n said turning completely to Annie. 

«You sure? »
