Chapter 15

It came. The day we were all waiting for. The day of the dance.

Of course, all of us spent the whole day getting ready for the night and there were so many people stressing out.

Even Mikasa, who's the calmest person I know, called me to ask which pair of socks she should wear. She was so nervous that she almost used her eyeliner as lipstick.

Sasha was stress eating, Historia had the sudden urge to cut her hair, Ymir couldn't stop talking without yelling and Connie ate so much sugar that he couldn't stop shaking.

I was also nervous so I asked my mom and Hitch to help me getting ready. Hitch was really good with makeup and all of those things so she did mostly everything for me. My mom was just there, giving me emotional support.

We spent the rest of the day doing this and sometimes we'd take breaks where I'd draw to relax a bit.

Finally, a few hours later, we were done. I looked amazing. I looked at the mirror and felt beautiful for the first time in years.

Minutes later, Mikasa arrived with Eren to take me to the dance. I said goodbye to my mom and Hitch and left my house.

I entered inside of Eren's car and sat in the back. When I looked at them, both him and Mikasa were staring at me, dropping their jaws.

"Woah, you look beautiful, (Y/n)!" Eren exclaimed.

"Yeah. I wouldn't mind ditching Eren for you." Mikasa said, making Eren pout.

I chuckled. "I wouldn't mind but I don't want to make Eren sad."

"Thank you, (Y/n)." Eren smiled.

He started driving to the place while Mikasa chose a playlist for us to sing to on the way. 'Love on top' from Beyonce started playing and we yelled the lyrics so loud that even the people outside could hear us.

In the middle of the song, Eren turned to Mikasa, while singing the lyrics as if he was singing them to her. I pretended to gag while looking at them as they focused on each other.

A few songs later, we arrived at the place. We could hear music and lights coming from it while people were going inside.

Eren decided to be a gentleman and opened the doors for us. We walked inside and I left the couple alone, going straight to the food table. It's where I'd always stay at parties but don't get me wrong, I love staying there.

I was looking for the chocolate desserts when I bumped into someone.

"Sorry." We both said at the same time.

----------

Jean had arrived a bit earlier to the party. He spent the whole day trying to look his best however, he felt like he could've done better.

"Who am I even dressing up for?" He muttered to himself when he looked at the mirror, in the place's bathroom.

He made sure his breath was fine, and it was but he still felt a bit insecure about it so he decided to go eat something. Maybe it would make him feel more relaxed.

"Why am I so nervous?" He muttered again before leaving the bathroom.

Once he was out, he noticed that more people were inside, meaning that maybe his friends were probably already there.

(Y/n) was the first person that popped in his mind but he shrugged it off quickly, reminding himself to go eat something as fast as possible.

He finally found the table and noticed that there was only one person there. He got closer to them since he also wanted to eat a sweet.
