It's been a few days or so since you last seen Eren before he completely disappeared from your room without a trace. His stuff was still here, his little fortress for which he called a bed was still unmade and was left the same as it was the night of his disappearance. Sasha would occasionally come and ask what was the pile of spilled blankets for, and in which you had to come up with excuses that didn't even seem reasonable enough for her to even believe a thing that was coming out of your mouth, but it somehow did. Yet, everything was practically the same as how everyday is. Just not the tutoring schedules adding up for now. You couldn't even text him about it since he randomly had you blocked. Showing up to his dorm room once a week in hopes of getting tutored was a regular occurrence, since he never confirmed or updated you on last minute changes. It was like a game of a coin toss every time. Tails for getting tutored, and heads as in for head on home.

Lectures seemed to be longer than usual, even though they started and ended at the same time as always. They were more tiring and agitating than the other previous lessons that you had to endure. Luckily, Connie was always there which made you somewhat occupied with him, the other half he was sleep in hopes he remembered the lecture in his dreams. Everyday was the same to you.

CONNIE'S POV:

You lifted a cold beer from the coaster and took a swig, while Eren laid carelessly on your couch, typing away on your computer as well. "You know, you can't stay here forever. It's not safe." You said as you glared over to Eren. His eyes flickered from his computer over to you as a hint of defiance and nonchalance in his expression. "It's not easy telling Y/N what I'm up to." Eren said as he continued typing.

"I'm sure she won't even care." You said as you dropped your beer down to the coaster. "She isn't the type to spread things around like that, especially the situation you're in." You said as you watched over Eren who listened to you attentively. Eren's expression remained pensive as he reflected on your words, taking them deeply as he could. "I don't fucking know her well enough to just tell her about it." Eren said as he slammed his computer shut, increasing in anger as he spoke. You knew not to say anything back, since Eren was certainly not in the mood to banter back and forth, yet, he had to learn one way or another. "I know her enough to tell you that she isn't the type to go on and tell others that you fucking murder people, or sell weed to the whole coop." You said as you slightly raised your voice over to him.

Eren sighed deeply as he tried to calm down his anger, that had progressively become worse ever since the incident. "I don't murder people, I just give them what they deserve." Eren said as he started to pack up his stuff, assuming that he was about to leave off to Y/N's dorm. "Yeah well, I cheat on exams because I don't like the teacher." You said. Eren twisted his head towards you in a confusing expression, almost mad at what you said. "That has no correlation whatsoever to what I just said, but okay." Eren said as he slid on his shoes and twisted the door knob open, leaving your room to wherever he was about to go to.

Y/N'S POV:

Doodling away in your notebook, sipping on the pumpkin spice latte that Sasha left you before she left off to cheer practice as she regularly did ever since the temperature dropped by 1°. A ding sound on your doorbell interrupted your doodling session. Springing out of your bed, you peeped through the peephole of the large door in front of you, and saw Eren with his backpack on his shoulder, and a computer bag wrapped around his hand. You rolled your eyes, trying to find an excuse to not let him in. You decided to appear as you weren't home. Luckily, your dorm lights were already turned off, giving an impression that no one was home. After some time of stalling, you tip toed through your bedroom, trying to not make a sound of your footsteps that echoed through the light floors and walls that the dorm rooms had built. Taking a small sigh of relief assuming that you successfully managed to avoid Eren into your room, you shut your room door behind you, and turned around seeing Eren towering over you with the menacing expression glistening down on you, sending a slight shiver down your spine as he continued to give you that look that always made you feel some type of way. "How did you—"
