He's inescapable • Eremin

Down Fall

Eren's POV

Packing, packing, packing is all Armin has been doing since this morning when he found out that he would be going to go see his grandpa. And he's taking me with him. I was just as excited as he was while he stuffed clothes into the luggage that lay on his bed inside our dorm while I just laid on my bed playing on my phone. He insisted on packing my stuff too but after a long calm arguement I gave in and let him pack by himself.

Suddenly I got a text message from Mikasa. Exiting out of my game to check, the message it read

Come to the cafeteria for lunch now.

I texted back:
Why?

Just because

Alright then.Geez someone's on their period. I sat up in my bed and walked up behind Armin wrapping my arms around his waist pulling him close. He placed him hands on mine while there embraced his waist. He was shorter than me, so that was why he had to go on his tippy toes to kiss my jaw line while giggles escaped both of our lips.

"What is it? I've gotta pack...... Erey" Armin said in tenderness. I raised an eyebrow.

"Erey? Is that a nickname?" I chuckled questionlly as he laced his fingers in mine still around his waist while we swayed to no beat but the drumming of our hearts racing in each other's presence. I smiled.

"Is there something wrong with that? Or should I call you Titan boy?" He asked playfully fidgeting with my fingers in his.

"Where did that come from?" I asked not knowing that my grin had grown wider.

"Well the only game you really play is 'Titan Killer' so I just assumed that name was appropriate" Armin shrugged still in my arms. I laughed to his reasoning.

"Well it's not my fault. It's just thosed stupid titans piss me off" I affirmed causing Armin to snicker. "But anyway I was gonna say that I'm going to have lunch with Mikasa since you're packing and stuff so..." I explained as I released Armin from my grip he nodded in response and pecked me lightly before returning to his luggage. I could see his cheek redden a bit to his actions. After chuckling under my breath to his cuteness I started to walk out the door with jeans and a T-shirt on with the phone in my hand as I headed to the cafeteria to meet Mikasa.

As Mikasa had said through text to meet at the cafeteria for lunch there she was sitting patiently waiting for my arrival with a tray of food which was untouched in front of her. She looked extremely troubled.

I made my way to the table for two that she sat in. Looking up into my eyes I was getting creeped out by all her staring. I saw her gulp hard before speaking.

"Father has asked to meet with us two weeks from now." Mikasa blurted out. I started to feel wizzy of the thought of seeing my dad. I haven't even talked to him ever since the last day of my senior year. The palms of my hands became extremely sweaty of thought of his disappointed expression.

"What?" I trembled. Mikasa stared once again at her untouched meal. She tells me this now. Just when me and Armin were going to leave to the plane at 4:35. Now I'm going to have a stress filled mind the whole time we're at his grandpa's. Great. I sighed. I didn't care about my dad. I only cared of how my stress and uneasiness might affect Armin at his grandpa's. "How long have you known this?" I asked finally gathering my thoughts.

"Since two weeks ago" she mumbled. I jolted from my seat. And you tell me now. Again sighing on my way back down on my seat.

"Whatever" I scoffed. "I'm getting food" walking towards the short line for the toxic shit meals that for some reason people actually ate. I have to keep this from Armin. Knowing it'll only make him worry. He wanted to see his grandpa so bad and if I drop this bomb on him it'll crush his happy three day trip to grandpa. Armin knows I don't get along with my father since I told him about when he kicked me out so I had to live with my aunt for a week before getting into this college. I won't tell Armin. Not now at least.
