"ready to leave?" asked annie as you finally put on your red high heels and put on your rings.

"yeah. do i look okay?" you were standing in front of the large wall mirror while waiting for an answer from snnie.

"yes. dou are always pretty. now, let's go." annie pulled your arm, then you went out and you are directed to the parking lot from which you walked to the house of the fraternity. it was not very far from where you had to take your car, and you were probably going to drink, so you didn't want to risk driving while intoxicated.

"there are too many people here. is it too late to turn around?" you asked with a nervous smile by clinging to annie's arm and putting your head on her shoulder.

"no. you're the one who invited me here. you can't turn around now." she replied by taking you to the big house that was full of people you didn't know.

the colored lights seemed foggy because of the amount of smoke, the atmosphere contaminated with alcohol, the large speakers emitted music that almost made your eardrums burst, people danced sensually on each other, kissing in the corners, probably having sex in the vacant rooms and bathrooms.

that's why you didn't like to party. you only knew a few people and you still hadn't seen them.

"i see Armin," annie leaned towards your ear to divert your attention from the music that resonated in your rib cage. "let's go." she dragged you to him and his group.

everything was happening so fast. is eren with him?

will Eren like what i'm wearing? why do I care so much? god, i'm obsessed.

you kept asking yourself these questions as if it were the end of the world. you were so nervous. it had been a month since you both started texting each other and you were still feeling nervous. it's not unusual, but it's the idea of "and if he only loved you through a text".

"hey! annie and y/n!" shouted Armin, displaying a bright smile that made you less anxious about meeting eren.

"hi armin, jean." you greeted the two boys who were in front of you while the others were still far from your field of vision.

"y/n, didn't you choose the two outfits we had designated for you?" asked Jean because your outfit was very different from the two you had sent earlier.

"the others looked nice, but I finally chose to assemble these two shits to form an outfit." you say by laughing and spreading your arms to give jean a better vision of your outfit.

"it looks great. you know how to dress well, unlike someone who didn't even take the trouble to do it," jean rolled his eyes talking about someone. you raised an eyebrow wondering who he was talking about. "i'm talking about Jaeger. i saw him leave the dormitory and I never saw him again." he added after noticing your confusion.

"oh..." you say disappointingly because there was only a small chance that you could see eren now.

jean quickly notices that your mood drops and puts his big hands on your shoulders. "i'm going to get him, okay? Just stay here and talk to armin while waiting for the others to arrive." he reassured you by nodding his head and then his hands detached from your shoulders.

annie and armin were talking to each other, probably an indirect flirtation because they were too shy to do it openly. it was a cute but depressing scene to watch. it's so obvious that they love each other, but their mistrust bothered them.

suddenly, hands wrapped around your waist while you were attracted to someone's chest. his head sank into the hollow of your neck as you sturped from this sudden action.
