Third Person POV.

✿.。.:*.。.✿.。.:*.。.✿

Eren stood at the top of the stairs, watching her leave. He didn't bother to chase after her because he knew that she'd only talk to him if he apologized for the things that he said, and apologizing wasn't something he planned on doing anytime soon. He also knew that she's smart and knew her way around the place so she wouldn't get herself into too much trouble.

With a sigh he walked back to his room but before he could go in he was stopped by Zeke.

Zeke : Where'd she go?

Eren : Don't know

He attempted to walk away but Zele grabbed his forearm.

Zeke : What do you mean you don't know?

Eren : It's not like she'll get lost. So fuck off

He snatched his arm back from Zeke and went back to his room. Ever since he was a kid, he always resorted sleeping to avoid his problems, which is exactly what he did this time. He almost immediately fell asleep.

Dina and Grisha entered the home to nothing but silence which didn't surprise them at all. They finish unloading the rest of the groceries then Grisha disappeared to his office. Dina started on dinner and in the matter of an hour supper was ready.

She dusted herself off and made her way to gather everyone. First Grisha's office, then Zeke's room and next Y/n's. But when she knocked there was no response. After a while of waiting she decided to go in and check in her and to her surprise the room was empty. No clothes, no bags, no Y/n. She decided to check in Erens room thinking that Y/n decided to stay with him. With a knock she entered Erens room only to find that Y/n nor her things were in there.

She gently shook him awake not wanting to startle him. He groaned as he woke up.

Dina : Where's Y/n

She whispered

Eren : Not here

He mumbled into his pillow.

Dina : Not here?

Eren : She left.

Dina : Why did she leave?

He remained quiet, only taking a deep breath. Dina decided not to try and pick at it anymore.

Dina : Well dinner is ready and it would be nice if you joined us.

By the time Eren had made it down, everyone had started eating. Luckily Dina had fixed him a plate and set it down on the table so all he had to do was sit down.

Grisha : Isn't y/n going to be joining us

Dina : She's-

She sighed in disappointment.

Dina : She isn't here

Grisha : Isn't here? Did you scare her away already?

He chuckled, gesturing towards Eren.

Zeke : Oh yes he did

Eren : Zeke shut-

Zeke : No no. Tell them the nasty things you said to her.

Eren didn't reply, his word began to replay in his head. And in that moment is when he knew he was wrong but is pride would never allow him to admit it out loud.

Zeke : Hm. silence? Complete 180 from earlier

Eren stood up, nearly punching him from across the table. Zeke stood up with him, going closer to Eren in a mockingly manner.

Zeke : Since you can't seem to speak i'll rephrase. He said she's a slut and he should fuck her sister.

The room fell silent. You could practically hear each particle of snow hitting the ground outside. All 3 pairs of eyes were now on Eren.

Dina : Why would you say those things?

Zeke : Because he found out that me and Y/n used to be....close

Dina : And how did he find that out?

Then Zeke went silent. The boys sat down and the rest of the dinner was silent. but it wasn't until Eren began to get up, Grisha spoke again.

Grisha : Do you know where she went?

Eren : No

Grisha : Tomorrow morning you're going to find her and you're going to make sure she's safe.

Eren did nothing but scoff and walk away.
