When Eren stepped again into his home, later that night, he was immediately assaulted by his mother. 

«She really is such a nice girl! » Carla's eyes were shining like gems, Eren simply nodded as he put his keys on the hey holder and took off his shoes.

«I do really hope we'll meet again soon. Such good manners, it's not something that we can take for granted anymore...  » Eren rolled his eyes sighing as his mother followed him to the kitchen and back again towards the front door.

«I know anne. I know. »

«İyi misin tatlım? » She asked laying a warm caress on his cheek.

Are you okay, love?

«Yes, I'm just tired. » He smiled at her. «I'll go into my room. »

«Tamam aşkım. »

All right, my love.

Eren walked away from her mother and made his way towards his room, passing Mikasa who was sitting in the middle of the stairs and had been staring at him the whole time. The girl raised an eyebrow, turning back to look at him disappearing behind the door of his room. 

There was no need for a crystal ball to know something was wrong with him, but what? He had been so happy all day and now he seemed so sad. Did something happen while he drove Y/n home? Mikasa's eyes widened. 

«What happened to him? » Carla asked worried crossing her arms to her chest. 

«We're about to find out. » Mikasa said getting up from the stairs and walking towards Eren's bedroom and knocking at the door. But she didn't wait for his reply and opened the door.

«I didn't say come in. » Mikasa smiled at him and sat on his bed, looking at him and trying to get a hint on why he was acting that weird.

«What do you want? » Eren was tying his hair and looked at his sister. He hoped to be left alone, he really wanted to be alone that night but apparently, he couldn't. And by the way, Mikasa was looking at him he knew that, somehow, she knew what happened.

«Something happened. »

«What are you talking about? »

«You're weird. Something happen I know.  » Eren tensed up but immediately composed himself and shook his head. There was no way he told her what happened with Y/n. He still had to realize it... he did really kiss her. It wasn't just his imagination. And... what if Y/n didn't want to talk about it? He couldn't make any more decisions. 

«Unfortunately for you, nothing happened. » He lied. To protect her. From what? He didn't know. He couldn't imagine how Mikasa would've reacted if he told her. Why it had to be so complicated? 

«You're lying. »

«I'm not lying. » He lied again. 

«Then what happened? You're extremely silent, your hands are shaking, and honestly, you look horrible right now. »

«Nothing, I'm just tired. And thank you. » He replied slightly irritated.

«Your ears are red. » Eren scoffed, again with that thing about his ears getting red when he was lying. 

«Can you go, please? I'm really tired and I don't like when you start to accuse me. »

«I'm not accusing you. Carla is worried about you. I'm worried. Did Y/n- »

«I don't want to talk about it. » He let out now fully irritated, taking his computer and his camera to edit some photos. «I'm not in the mood and I'd like a little alone time in my room, or is it too much to ask? »
