"You know each other?" Petra asked. Eren nodded.
"He's the soccer team captain." Eren explained.
"Fancy seeing you here Eren." (Brother's name) said.
He then grabbed (Name)'s arm.
"Excuse us, we must get going. We have a show to attend." He said, and they left.
"Armin really should've come today!" Petra said, and Eren nodded.
"He promised to come tomorrow though." Eren reminded her.
The young couple walked off to the cosplay show.
"Let's send the picture you took to Armin." Petra said with a wink. Eren nodded, grinning.
"I had no clue (Name) knew the captain..." Eren mumbled.

Armin was making some dinner. He was a terrible cook, but he was frying eggs, and that's pretty hard to fail at.
"Maybe I should have gone to that Con with Eren and Petra..." Armin mumbled. He then shook his head, and put the fried egg on a plate. He poured upp a glass of milk and sat down.
He had slightly burned the egg, but it tasted fine anyways.
*bzzz bzzz*
"Huh? What is it now...?" Armin asked nobody in particular, and picked up his phone.
"A message from Eren..?"
Eren had sent him a photo and a message.
Eren:[Too bad you couldn't come Armin. Anyways, look at these awesome Kuroshitsuji cosplayers we found ;) ;)]
Armin wondered what the winking smilies were for. He looked at the photo.
In front, there was Petra, who was making peace signs together with the Elizabeth beside her.
Behind them, stood an Alois, who had his hand on Petra's shoulder, and a Ciel who had his hand on the Elizabeth's shoulder.
Diagonally back stood a Claude and Sebastian, standing beside Alois and Ciel respectively.
Armin still did not understand the wink smilies. For some reason though, he felt like the Elizabeth looked familiar.
And so, he zoomed in on her face.
"I-It's (Name)!" He blurted out. When he zoomed back out and saw the Ciel, his heart hurt for some reason.
Armin sent a reply to Eren,
put his phone down and continued eating his dinner.

"Has he replied yet?" Petra asked, whining.
*bzzz bzzz*
Eren fished up his phone from his pocket.
Arlert-Alert:[Who's the Ciel guy?]
Eren started laughing and showed Petra the message. She started laughing too.
"He's so jealous!" She whispered.
Eren started typing a new message.
Eren:[It's the soccer captain. I don't know anything about their relationship though...]
After a little while.. *bleep bleep* Arlert-Alert:[Oh... We're still on tomorrow?]
Eren:[Of course!]
Eren then put his phone back in his pocket.
"Let's watch the show." He said, and Petra nodded.

The performance went pretty well. They performed a short play, and, after some girls in the crowd begged, Fredrik and Oden unbuttoned (Brother's name) and Kelly's shirts.
Petra almost died from a nosebleed.
In the end, the day had been fun.
Well, for (Name), not all of it.
"(Name) do you want to come with us tomorrow?" Petra asked.
"I'd love to!" (Name) exclaimed.
Petra giggled.
"We should cosplay!" (Name) said.
"Me too?" Eren asked.
"Of course!" Petra said.
"So... What series should we do?" Eren asked.
"We could do different series..." (Name) suggested.
Petra leaned forward and whispered something in Eren's ear. He whispered something back. Petra nodded and turned to look at (Name).
"Why don't you cosplay someone from Full Metal Alchemist?" Petra asked.
(Name)'s eyes lit up.
"It was ages ago I watched that series!! I have to see if I can find my old Winry cosplay!" (Name) exclaimed happily.
Petra and Eren looked at each other and grinned.

When (Name) arrived at home, she quickly started searching for her Winry cosplay.
When she found it she started squealing. She then went downstairs to ask her father where the wrench was.
(Name) then brushed one of her blonde wigs and took out some blue circle lenses.
"There!" (Name) said.
The only problem... Her room was a mess. And since (Name) hated cleaning, she would have to make a deal or something.
Buut, (Name) was pretty much broke, and the last money she had, she wanted to save for the following day. She sighed and started cleaning.
~a few hours later~
(Name) collapsed on the floor, panting. She was FINALLY done cleaning.
Her brother came into the room.
"You okay?" He asked. (Name) nodded.
"I'm fine. Thanks for today!" She replied, smiling.
"Pfft. As I said earlier, you only came along because we needed an Elizabeth." (Brother's name) said, before leaving her room.
(Name) hugged her Ciel plushie and laid down in her bed.
"Sweet dreams..." (Name) whispered and closed her eyes. It didn't take many minutes for her to fall asleep.

When (Name) woke up the following morning, she quickly got ready. It took her about an hour to get ready, because she was having problems with the circle lenses. (Name) sat down on her bed and picked up her phone.
(Name):[Petra Trancy when r we leaving?]
(Name) put down her phone, and decided to watch some Hetalia while waiting for a reply.
~Twenty minutes and about five Hetalia episodes later...~
*blop blop*
"Hmm...?"
(Name) picked up her phone and saw a message from Petra.
Petra Trancy:[U come to my house in 10 min?]
(Name):[Kay]
(Name) grabbed the wrench and the small amount of money she had and left for Petra's house.
~Time Skip cause I'm to lazy to write things~
(Name) knocked on Petra's door.
"Petra? It's (Name)!" (Name) shouted. Suddenly the door opened, revealing Petra, who had cosplayed as Shiemi.
"I know no (Name), you're Winry after all!" Petra giggled.
She gestured for (Name) to come inside. When (Name) reached Petra's living room, she saw Eren cosplaying as Rin, and... Armin cosplaying as Edward?!
And speaking of Armin, he was shirtless. (Name)'s face turned bright red and she brought out her wrench.
"What the hell guys?!" She shouted. Petra looked at her in panic.
"Nononono (Name) calm down!" Petra said. (Name) lowered the wrench, but crossed her arms.
"Why didn't you tell me Armin was coming along?" (Name) asked, still blushing.
Eren and Petra looked at each other and stayed quiet.
(Name) then looked at Armin.
"Hey Ed, did you break your automail again?" She asked sassily, yet with a smile.
Armin shook his head. The four teens then left the house and headed to the Con.
While walking from the bus stop to the place where the Con was held, Eren decided to ask (Name) about the soccer captain.
"So (Name), what's going on between you and captain? Trying to make someone jealous?"
(Name) looked at him in disbelief before almost dying of laughter.
"You have got to be kidding me!" She cried out, still laughing. The three teens looked at their friend, very confused.
"(Brother's name) is my brother!" (Name) said.
And that's when Armin felt relief in his heart. Like a weight had been lifted.
