Sasha showed up about 15 minutes later & fussed at you again but it cleared over pretty fast once you offered her your leftovers from breakfast.

You sat down and told her everything...except what Eren did after he stoned outta your place. You felt that it was better if she didn't know in case he did end up getting caught or alternatively, he should be the one to tell her if he really wanted her to know.

And while Sasha knew that Jean owed people money, she never knew it was that serious. She was thankful that Eren and Jean came and took you to safety.

As far as she knew, Zackly's death was a coincidence & he finally got what's been coming to him. You did tell her all about the last few days you've spent with Eren and how they got better and better each time.

She squealed with excitement as she shook your wrists in her hands, bouncing around in a circle.

"Sash, it's not that deep." You pulled your arms away when she was done, "But honestly, I can see him being best friend material though, I can see why y'all miss him so much when he's gone."

"Yeah, imagine him being gone nearly 2 years." She scoffed while going back to her chair at your small breakfast table.

You stood there with your arms folded, you actually could picture it briefly. But you shut those thoughts away at the sadness that came with it, cause you knew that could happen at any moment. Then he'd just be gone.

"You obviously like him a lot, I don't know why you're so pressed on denying it. Your face gets red the moment you bring him up." She forked some food into her mouth.

You sucked your teeth, walking to sit in the chair across from hers, "That's only cause he's irritating."

"Jean & Connie are irritating too but you never blush when you talk about them!" Her brown eyes wide as all outside as her jaw chomped the food.

"I—Okay look, he fine alright? Cool but I don't wanna date nobody, you know that—"

"Okay but you never even wanna talk about why. Like why do you not wanna date, especially when you've got like your literal soul mate in front of you."

"Girl bye, he is not my soul mate, he is my friend—our friend at that. That's all there is to it." You waved her off, "That man has a girlfriend & that's what he needs to focus on."

"So what if you fall in love with him?"

You tilted your head at her & sucked your teeth, "Sasha, quit playing man."

She rose her hands in defense, "Hey- look I'm not! I mean you've been hanging out every day, what are you gonna do with all those feelings that accumulate over time? Cause they're only gonna get stronger because you're already attracted to him."

"It's called self control. I can be his friend and still think his face is rideable like don't make it big deal." You grabbed her empty plate and walked it to the sink before she could say anything else.

But it was a big deal to you, just being called out on your feelings before you'd really processed them yourself threw you off. Made things even scarier because it seemed more real.

Sasha was right though and you knew she was. He might not be some silly crush you'd just get over cause everything was different with him.

How could this possibly end positively? If you got to the point where you did love him... could you really stand to see him with someone else?
