The Wolf and The Bat

Eren Gets Settled

The Yeager van pulled onto campus at ten minutes to ten. Carla and Grisha climbed out of the van while the three new freshmen hopped out and the boys nearly ran giddy. Mikasa rolled her eyes at the childish antics while helping unload the van.

"Wow, Trost University. This is going to be so awesome!" Eren said, eyes sparkling.

"You act like you've never been here on a campus tour." Armin said, elbowing his friend slightly.

"That's not the point Armin. I mean... think of it. Four years and we'll really be adults!"

"Aren't we now?" Mikasa questioned as she shouldered a duffle bag.

"Well, yeah. But I mean we won't be students anymore. Well be in the working class making more than 7 bucks an hour." Eren said.

"You still will be." Armin chuckled behind his hand as Eren glared.

"Haha. You say that, but when I'm a celebrity and have a mansion with a heated indoor pool, you won't be invited to any of my house parties."

"I thought it was established that you would be in a cardboard box?" Armin joked. Eren pouted and puffed his cheeks, giving him an extremely childish look.

"Hey, are you two coming to get your things, or are you going to leave it to Carla, Mikasa, and I?" Grisha asked, grabbing one of Eren's guitar cases from the back.

"Hey! I'll take that!" Eren said, hurrying to his father.

"Afraid I'll drop it?" Eren took it.

"No... Yes... You dropped my last one." Eren defended. Grisha shook his head, a smile on his face, as he handed Armin one of his suitcases.

"I think the boys packed more than you Mikasa." Carla said, laughing lightly. Mikasa shrugged, picking up her two suitcases. Eren pouted again.

"Hey! I brought most of my music stuff so you don't have to mail it."

"And how many pairs of underwear will your mother and I be sending in the mail?" Grisha questioned as he handed Armin his third suitcase. Eren blushed.

"Dad!" He whined. Pouting more. Grisha pat his son on the back, chuckling lightly.

"I know I know." He said, grabbing a few boxes out of the back. "Now, which dorm are you two in?" He asked. The two boys looked at each other.

"Maria?" The brunette one responded. The blond nodded.

"Yeah. Second floor." Armin said. The group began to file into the dorm with the other families and students. Grisha helped the boys settle into their dorm room, while Carla helped Mikasa.

"Wow." The two boys said. Eren whistled. They had a suite styled dorm room. It had two bedrooms, a sitting area, and a kitchenette. As they brought in their luggage, they looked around a bit.

"This is going to be great!" Eren chirped, happily claiming the room on the left. Armin just shrugged.

"You say that now. But when it comes time to clean, you're going to complain." The blond said, putting somethings in the right room.

"You two have everything, right?" Grisha asked. Eren and Armin looked at each other and nodded.

"Yeah." Grisha nodded as he stepped forward and pulled two cards from his coat pocket, handing them to the boys.

"These are for the blood bank in town. Call the number, and use your surnames to order. They deliver between 8PM and 3PM on Wednesdays so make sure you're stalked for the week." Grisha whispered as the two boys took the cards.
