Y/n pov:

School clubs. Your worst nightmare. You finish packing up your things wondering why your Elidan University made joining extracurriculars mandatory. You walk out of chemistry, your last class of the day, saying your goodbyes to Professor Hange. As you enter the hallway you hear footsteps rapidly approaching. "Y/n !!!!" A tall, emerald eyed boy is sprinting towards you. "Slow down Eren." You say smiling before pulling him into a hug.

Eren Jaeger. Your best friend. He was here for you when you first moved to this school. Loyal, kind, and courageous. Not afraid to go against the flow and was always there for his friends. He was someone you admired and adored. "So have you decided on what clubs you want to join??" He said as you walked down the hall together. "Not yet," you replied. "I'm not really sure what I'm interested in."

Eren ruffles your hair reassuring you. "Wait... I have a great club for you. It doesn't have much members and a good friend of mine runs it!!!" "What's it about?" You ask filled with curiosity. "Chemistry." You paused. You had a love for chemistry, a love that outweighed any passion. Chemistry was your forte and the mention of it peaked your interest. "I need to go pick up Mikasa from her class, but you can go check it out. Second floor, third door on the right. He should be there." Before you could ask who "he" was, Eren rushed off towards his girlfriend. Not having any plans later that day, you ascend to the second floor, not knowing just how much your life would change.

You were standing right outside the chemistry lab. You were met with adrenaline, not knowing what you would be met with on the other side of the door. After standing outside for 5 minutes, you mustered up the courage and quietly open the door, "Excuse me-" You are taken back by what you see.

The room was big. Rows of desks going all the way back. The windows were open letting in a pleasant breeze and brightening up the room. Working at a desk near an open window you see someone in a lab coat. He was tall, had short blonde hair, the strands dancing with the breeze. And his eyes... wow. Blue, intense, like the ocean. He was stunning. Absolutely stunning.

"You must be y/n." You snapped out of your trance, flustered that you were caught staring. "Haha h-hi. Eren told me this was the perfect club for me." The blue eyed boy chuckled, "Eren is basically my sole advertiser. I know he pities me because I don't have any members. But it doesn't bother me." You walk towards his table and pull up a stool across from him. "My name is Armin Arlert, by the way." "Nice to meet you." You reply, confused as to why you are so shy. Armin. What a sweet and intellectually sexy name. Wait. Sexy?

"So why did you join this club? It's not everyday someone is excited to learn about chemistry." You watched how his hands worked the chemicals. Trained, like he's done this more than once. "Chemistry is just so fun. It'a the only subject I understand. Aced every class. Once you understand the foundational information the rest is easy. My favorite unit was when we learned about cyclic reactions and-" you started talking and didn't realize how much you were geeking out.

It wasn't until Armin laughed that you snapped out of it, face red at the thought of how lame you must have sounded. Armin kept laughing "I'm sorry... it's just-,""Lame right? I know i'm sorry I-," "No. Keep going. It was cute." You paused. Did he just call you cute? You averted your gaze out the window.

Armin's pov:

When Eren told me someone was interested in the club, I didn't believe him. Usually every girl that comes to check out this club never stays for long and only comes because Eren asked them too. After all, Eren Jaeger is the prince here. I wasn't expecting much. 

But y/n... she's different. She was going on and on about her love for the science. Her e/c eyes were twinkling as her excitement rose. Cute. I couldn't help but laugh. "Lame right?" she starts, "I know I'm sorry I-" I stop her. "No. Keep going. It was cute." I saw her look away from me and she looked out the window. Her features were perfect. I was almost blown away at how beautiful she was. Her middle length, wavy h/c hair was , moving with the breeze. Thank God I opened the windows. 

I was interrupted by her question, "So... where can I sign up?" Excitement coursed through my body. She's joining? I handed her the form and continued my experiment so I could hide my joy. I couldn't help but wonder what we were going to experience together. 

Y/n pov:

A slow realization dawned on you. Would joining this club mean I can see Armin like this? Everyday?? "So... where can I sign up." Armin gives you the form and you fill it up right in front of him as he continues his experiment. As you fill in the information, the last question says "Why are you joining this club?" You slowly look back up at the gorgeous blonde in front of you and think. Him.
