Friday, November 1

"Sasha you weren't lying. That professor of yours is hot. Kinda short, but hot regardless."

You sat indoors with Sasha in a common area on campus. "What did I tell you?", Sasha says cheerily. "Too bad Ackerman's got a huge stick up his ass."

Connie suddenly rolls up on the two of you, along with Jean, his loud-ass voice booming through the place as always. "Y/n, we missed you at the Halloween party last night! Why didn't you come? It was dope." He takes a seat next to Sasha and Jean sits on the sofa's armrest.

"I tried to bribe her into coming, but she's so stubborn", Sasha chimed in, frowning at you.

You paid your friend no mind and ignored her lame attempt at trying to make you feel bad. "You know damn well parties aren't my thing Connie. I did tell you guys I wouldn't be there." You take a sip of the drink you are holding.

"It was crazy though. So much shit happened you wouldn't even believe it." The fake frown on Sasha's face disappeared and was instantly replaced by a huge smile meaning she was now ready to tell you everyone's business.

"This is college. You gotta live a little!", Connie adds again.

You keep your focus on Sasha. "Oh yeah? What happened then?", you ask curious. Yeah, you didn't like being involved in drama. Didn't mean you didn't wanna hear other people's drama.

"Apparently Historia cheated on Ymir with Eren. And then Floch got beat up, then-"

You almost choked. You couldn't have heard that right. Your friend Historia. Historia Reiss. Cheated on Ymir. And with Eren? Eren Jaeger? "Wait, Sasha, go over that again."

"Some freshman beat up Floch. It was hilarious."

Connie laughs a loud laugh. His ugly, signature Connie laugh. It was as if someone had told him the funniest joke ever. "I got the video, hang on." He gets up from his spot beside Sasha and pushes himself between the two of you, taking his phone out of his pocket.

"Not that, Sash. The first part."

"Oh, Historia cheated on Ymir with Eren. Well allegedly", Sasha then adds using air quotes.

That can't be right...

"Since when were those two friends? I mean, I get that Historia knows everyone, but I've never seen those two as much as have a simple conversation." But then again, Historia knows everyone. "I don't think she'd do that."

Sasha shrugs. You'd ask her about it later though when you get the time.

"Me personally...", Connie starts, "I didn't think those two would last anyway. High school relationships never do. And Historia's nice and all but Ymir?" Connie gives a thumbs down.

Sasha slaps Connie on the arm. "You're just jealous no girl wants you. You've never even had a girlfriend."

Connie opened his mouth but wasn't able to get a word out as Jean just had to put his two cents in. "One date at the movies doesn't count."

"Like you could talk", you join in, rolling your eyes.

"Scuse me?" Jean turns to you raising an eyebrow wanting to hear what you'd say.

"You heard me. Didn't Hitch leave you for Marlo?", you ask him.

"Not the point. We weren't a couple anyway, bitch. Suck on that."

"That doesn't make it any better."

"LMAO", Connie says. Not 'laughing my ass off', but LMAO. Who says that?

"No one says that shit in real life", you say shaking your head.

"It's weird though", says Sasha. "Historia doesn't even like guys."

"Yes, she does. What are you talking about?", Connie argues back.

"Okay", you interrupt. "As much as I'd looove to sit here with y'all and discuss Historia's sexuality, I'm gonna get going. We'll meet up later, yeah?"

You put your bag over your shoulder and head to your first class of the day, kicking Jean in the shin as he tried to trip you.

🍃

Conveniently as you were leaving your lecture room, Historia was walking down the hall. You call out to her so she'll stop and you make your way over.

"Historia? Why do you look like someone died?"

She sighs. "It's nothing."

You roll your eyes. "I'd rather you stop looking like that then. I'm in a good mood and that sour look on your face is bumming me out. Especially 'cause you're so cute. What's up?"

"It's Ymir. I think she might be mad at me. She hasn't been answering her phone all day, and she left home this morning before I even got a chance to see her. I'm starting to think she regrets proposing."

You had an idea what that could be about. "Did you two go to the party last night?"

She nods. "Yeah. We were good then, but this morning when I woke up, she was gone. And I woke up at eight. Ymir hates being up any time earlier than one."

You decided to just ask. "Historia, is it true?"

"Is what true?"

"You know what I mean. Did you really... cheat on Ymir at the party?"

The shorter woman looks at you confused. "What? What are you talking about? I'd never do that..."

She was telling the truth. Historia wasn't the type to lie. "There's a rumor going around that you cheated on Ymir with Eren. Apparently, someone posted it on the confession page.

Seems like Historia was in the middle of one of these rumors now too. The poor girl is so sweet and wouldn't hurt a fly. She scoffs quietly. "No wonder people were staring at me weirdly..."

Another reason you stayed away from parties was the unnecessary drama and rumors they'd always seem to come with. The last time you attended one was in the eleventh grade. Somehow, that night alone you ended up hooking up with six members of the basketball team, and possibly the coach the night before. According to the rumors of course.

"It's probably Hitch again. You know how she likes stirring shit up. She thinks she can get away with everything just because she's the dean's daughter... Which she does."

Hitch being behind this made more sense. Hell, she even started a couple about Jean while they were still seeing each other. Why did she do these things? Simple. Because she could, because she wanted to, and because she was Hitch.

"I don't get why she didn't feel like she couldn't have just... talked to me."

"I'd offer to talk to Ymir for you, but she'll just ignore my call and think you put me up to this. Your girl is one stubborn bitch, but she'll come around." You hoped for Historia's sake that was true. These two have been through too much already to lose it all now over one misunderstanding.
