Mikasa's POV

I watched as Eren and Armin scattered into the entrance to the plane. Waving sadly, don't get me wrong I loved the expression on Armin's face when I told him about the tickets, it was truly priceless. I also loved that they had finally got together. I mean seriously Armin was making lovey dovey eyes for Eren most of middle school and high school, while Eren was being a complete idiot getting into girls pants. Seriously.

I turned my heels heading through the not so busy crowd. To the exit with a depressed smile, and yes I was over reacting. It's just I loved Eren and Armin like brothers and won't know what the hell they'll be doing at Mr. Arlert's place. I didn't have anything to do so once I exited the air port I drove to the nearest starbucks.

Getting out of my red Toyota, I opened the glass door with a metal handle into starbucks. When a sudden ringing of my phone made me jump, cutting me off guard. I rummaged through the pockets of my jeans forgetting where I had placed my over used ad nearly dead iPhone. Standing in the doorway of the shop. Finally finding it on my left front pocket. It rung endlessly until I answered to the unknown number that displayed on the screen.

"Hello?" I asked

"Hello. Is this Mikasa?" The voice that came from the othet end sunk into my ears. Wishing I were deaf. Hearing his voice made me sick to my stomach, as it flipped flopped. I felt my heart clench in rage, discomfort and betrayal. I still remember the yells that had echoed through the halls that day, which I dearded.

*flash back

I sat on my bed of my dark red colored sheets in my mostly empty room, studying the ceiling like the teenage girls do when they stalk Harry style's insatgram account. Until I heard a yelling argument. Jumping off my bed I headed through the door and the hallway but stopped once I heard the source of argument.

"You disgusting bastard!!" I heard dad snarl to who I assumed was Eren. What did he do now? I was about to turn the corner that led to the living room where the yells emerged and break them up as I would do in any other argument they got in. But this wasn't just any other argument. I peered over the corner to see Eren wince greatly to dad's boomed voice.

"I'm sorry" I heard him whisper with a crack, as if he was going to go down in tears. I stopped the idea of interfering in this fight and just watched. I was curious on what went down.

"Sorry?!??! You're sorry!?!?!" Dad was screaming now. That made me alert and ready to jump from the corner to shield my poor brother. But I still stood listening. "God, I can't believe my son is a fag...." dad muttered without belief in his tone shaking his head as he rubbed his temples.

Fag? Eren was gay? Wait, is it about Armin?

"I didn't mean-" Eren started timidly, but got cut off by the booming sound of skin getting slapped. I finally turned to the corner to see dad had slapped Eren. He had a red mark on his cheek. His eyes widened in fear and shock. That made my heart ache. I suddenly ran to get in between of them. I shieled Eren who was still in shock. Growling at my father gaze at me in surprise.

"What the fuck are you doing!!" I drawled loudly. Dad frowned deeper than before.

"Ask this queer!" Dad hitched, yes I said 'bitched' cause that was exactly how he sounded. I scrunched my nose in distaste. Eren still stood behind me with his head slumped in shame as I could hear small sniffles from him. That only seemed to fuel my rage.

"What's the problem with that?! I'm pretty sure mom would be pissed at your sorry ass for laying a finger on him. So what if he's gay! You actually pay attention to Eren now?! He has been in the hospital and you just sat there being a bitch about it, not giving a fuck and the fact that he's gay is what you're concerned about, I'm truly disgusted for calling you my father! Just because he has a good Rep that you use for your selfishness, doesn't mean that you can control his life!" I yelled flailing my arms angrily.

Dad growled, and looked away. Dad used Eren. Eren was liked by everyone and always did what dad said. He joined the football team because dad made him. Eren dated Mr. Harris's bitchy daughter, because dad said so. When Eren was smaller he had a skate board that dad said he couldn't have, because Eren at the time was forced into swimming (that he quite in middle school) and dad wanted the 2,000 dollar cash for winning the race so dad burned Eren's skate board to get him to focus on swimming. And when Eren would disobey him, dad would slap him and throw him in the closet. I tried to stop that from happening. But dad would only do so when I was out. I hated him. And this was the last straw.

I turned to Eren grabbing his hand and dragged him to his bedroom, opening the door I got a duffle bag and stuffed his clothes and other stuff, as he stood there watching the floor.

"We're leaving" I said, not turning to look at him.

"Okay" he replied

*end of flashback

And so me and Eren left that night to a hotel and stayed there for month before Eren said he was taking the entrance exam to get into to a college away from dad. So did I. And that led to me and Eren today.

But now Eren was back in our old town, while I was here.

With my dad on the other line.
