BEFORE US

"Don't mention it. And hey, the offer still stands! Consider it, would ya?" Connie added, rising up from the curb preparing to make his departure.

"Hey, wait. Before you go, who were you talking about?"

"Oh, just my good friend!"
"Eren."

"Yeah, I don't know who that is. Ready to go, Sasha?" You said as you stood up from the curb, brushing your hands onto your clothes.

Sasha nodded and stood up to throw out her remaining trash and walked over to you.

Connie chuckled as walked backwards. "Maybe you'll have a chance to meet him in the future." He yelled. "Toodaloo!" He said while turning his back towards the sidewalk, walking in the opposite direction.

Weirdo..

As you and Sasha walked back towards the dorms, you couldn't help but be filled with curiosity. You sighed before asking Sasha a question. "Sasha, do you know someone named, Eren?"

Sasha shrugged as she tugged gently onto your arm. "I've heard of his named being thrown around, but honestly, I couldn't care less." She said nonchalantly.

You couldn't help but chuckle at Sasha's response. She really had no filter.

"Of course you don't care." You said jokingly as you interlocked your hand with hers, seeking warmth and affection from the cold weather out.

The two of you made it back to the dorms and went inside to warm up some more. "Jeez, It's 1AM already." You said as you took off your shoes.

Sasha leaped onto her bed immediately and began to doze off, showing how exhausted and drained she was. It reflected back on you on how tired she must've been and still wanted to go out with you, and to add on, she was barely even dressed appropriately for the cold weather out. She was really your bestest friend, even though she would definitely trade you for a cookie.

You quietly smiled at her as you looked at her. The way she was peacefully sleeping brung you a sense of comfort you never thought you needed. You shifted onto your own bed and began to drift off into a deep sleep.

7:30a.m.

Your alarm rang loudly, causing you to jolt you awake from your peaceful slumber. Today you were determined to not be late to Professor Levi's lecture, again. You decided to actually look presentable today.

You walked over to the bathroom and stripped your clothes off, preparing to take a warm shower. You applied a generous amount of shampoo and began scrubbing your scalp and hair. You applied conditioner along with soap and body wash to accompany you as you let your conditioner sit for a little while, and finally washing it all off.

You dried yourself up with a towel and began rummaging through your closet to find an outfit for you to wear. Since it was a bit chiller than yesterday, you slipped on an oversized leather jacket with a white shirt underneath, paired with a black skirt and some stockings layered with leg warmers for some more added warmth.

Sasha was still dead asleep since she didn't have class today, which made you want to be in her shoes. You sighed before picking up your bag and walking out your dorm room.

You spotter Connie not too far away and made your way over to him, your steps quickened as you tried to catch up to him.

"Hey, Connie!" You called out to him smiling. As he looked up, his red sweatshirt and black baggy jeans gave off a casual appearance that really suited him.
