The Complications-SNK fanfic

Armin

Just gonna skip all the Eren parts lmao

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When we were at the meeting, I noticed that Mikasa stared at Captain Levi a lot. I was feeling a bit sad and almost... insecure... as I liked Mikasa from the very beginning. The way her black hair swishes when the wind blows and how her eyes, her beautiful and dark eyes looked at everything with such care and kindness but also a certain intensity.

I really did love Mikasa. She was always there to protect, along with Eren. I don't know how my life would be like at the moment without those two. I'd probably be dead...

I was getting more and more jealous when I looked at Mikasa and found her staring at that stupid Captain Levi. Why do all the girls like him? What does he have that I don't? Well... besides pretty much everything..

Then, Mikasa and Eren started arguing and she turned over to me. 

"Hey? What's wrong? Are you okay?" I asked her. I wanted to pat her shoulder but she shrugged me off and kept her mouth closed.

After Mikasa and I went to ask the Commander for questions, which Eren surprisingly didn't accompany us to,  she said good night but I thought, This might be my chance.. Just Mikasa and I...

"W-wait! I'll walk you to your room!" I blurt. She just shrugs and begins her walk to her room.

"So..  what happened back there? I didn't see what was going on but you looked quite pissed," I asked her. She just shrugged again before replying,

"Nothing really. Eren was just bugging me about Captain Levi. He thinks I like him or something." 

I nod and then I ask, watching her for her reaction or any signs that she actually does like him, "And do you?"

But instead, she snaps at me,

"No, okay? I don't like Captain Levi. Just because he is slightly physically attractive doesn't mean I want to marry him and have his babies. Plus, I like someone else."

She likes someone else? Could that be me?  I say to myself. No, of course it isn't. Why would it be me?

 "Oh? And who would that be?" I ask, curious. She sighs and shakes her head.

"Never mind I even said that. Forget it," she says. 

I slowly nod my head and try to smile but it came off very weak. I hang my head low and couldn't help but feel extremely disappointed and sad. Suddenly, Mikasa sighs and says,

"Hey, I'm sorry for snapping. It's just that, Eren's already bugged me about liking someone and I'm not in the mood for more." I say to him.

I smile at her. Her caring nature seemed to have taken over and I felt all nice again because it meant that she cared about how I felt. 

"It's okay. I understand.. sort of," I say.

She smiles and then she stops at her bedroom door.

"Thanks for understanding, Armin," she tells me. She says goodnight and gives me hug. I could just say there, hugging her forever.

"You're the best. Love you," she says, before closing her door. 

L-love me? What? 

Her words left me standing there, not being able to process anything else. Did she mean as in friends or.... more than friends?

Dammit, Mikasa! Why do you say things like that?
