Monday, October 3rd
You pushed through the door of the lecture hall, feeling the cool breeze hit your face as you stepped outside.
Marley.
A whole week in Marley.
Of all the places you could've gone for this class trip, it had to be there.
Of fucking course.
Your hometown.
Where everything went so wrong in the worst possible ways.
You fled to Paradis to escape- not to be dragged back kicking and screaming.
If this was some sort of sign from a greater power that you needed to face your problems- you were happily choosing to ignore it.
And to top it off, you'd be stuck sharing a hotel room with Eren.
Perfect.
You sighed, slinging your bag over your shoulder and making your way across campus.
The crowd of students buzzed around you, but your mind was stuck on the logistics of the trip.
How were you supposed to survive an entire week with Eren?
The two of you barely tolerated each other, and now you had to work together.
Plus, the whole "sharing a room" thing? Not exactly an ideal situation.
And that was putting it lightly.
You were betting that one of you would be dead before the 16-hour flight was over.
After a long day of classes, you finally made your way back to the dorm, feeling a strange mix of exhaustion and irritation.
The trip to Marley was still lingering in the back of your mind, but you shoved it aside as you climbed the stairs to your room.
Whatever.
You had more immediate things to deal with, like getting through the rest of this week without losing your mind.
Not that there was much to lose anyway!
You pushed open the door to your dorm and found Sasha sprawled out on her bed, scrolling through her phone with an excited grin on her face.
She looked up as you walked in, practically bouncing in place as she sat up.
"Hey!" she greeted, "Guess what?"
You raised an eyebrow, tossing your bag onto your bed. "What?"
"Armin and Eren are hosting this huge party at their house tomorrow night," she said, practically vibrating with excitement. "It's supposed to be super fancy, like, formal dress code. But a frat party."
You blinked. "A frat party? Formal?" The idea seemed completely ridiculous. "Isn't that, like, against the whole point of a party?"
Sasha shrugged, a playful grin on her face. "Yeah, well, apparently that's the theme. Everyone's supposed to dress up, but it's still gonna be wild- like, super fratty with all the drinks, music, and, well, you know, the usual."
You rolled your eyes, though you couldn't help but smile a little. "Of course they are."
"Yeah! And the best part is," she added, leaning forward conspiratorially, "all of us- Ymir, Historia, Connie, Jean, Reiner, Bertholdt, Annie- we're meeting up a couple of hours early to pregame at their place before everyone else shows up. They're inviting the whole campus, but Eren wants us all to hang out first."
