Ereri (completed)

CHAPTER 4

I wake up the next morning to a very loud, high-pitched squeal. I know who it is before I even open my eyes.

"Hanji...go away..." I grumble into my pillow. I hear a familiar giggle come from my pillow and realize that it is not a pillow at all. It's Eren Jaeger. His chest moves as he laughs. I open my eyes. Hanji is standing in the doorway, her hand over her nose. She's failing in her attempts to stop it from bleeding.

"I swear Hanji, if you get your dirty nose blood on me, I will not hesitate to kill you." I say, snuggling into Eren's chest. This only causes Hanji to squeal again. Eren chuckles and holds me closer to him.

"Hanji...please..." He says. Hanji giggles.

"Sorry. I'll go. Bye shorty! Bye Titan-baby!" The door opens and closes and I sigh, causing Eren to giggle again.

"Could she be any louder?" I ask, sitting up.

"She could. But you would kill her." That's when I realize that Eren isn't wearing a shirt.

"Oi...Eren?"

"Yes?"

"Where's your shirt?" He points across the room to where his shirt is lying on a chair. "Why is it not on you?"

"I never wear a shirt to bed." There's a small moment of silence before Eren speaks up again. "If that makes you uncomfortable, I can put it back on."

"N-No..." I say a little too fast. "I don't mind."

"Sir? You stuttered."

"N-No I didn't." I stutter again and Eren giggles. "It's not funny."

"Sorry, sir, but, I can't help but feel that you are nervous." Shit. He's onto me.

"Nervous? Me?" There's a moment of silence before I quietly mutter, "Yes..." He sits up, not moving his arms which are wrapped around me. It's strange, snuggling up to one of my scouts. But I'm not gonna lie, I feel... safe. Safer than I have for a while. I sit up, Eren's hands falling away from me and into his lap. His eyes are focused on my face as I take in the sight before me. Eren Jaeger... shirtless. I'll admit, he has amazing abs. But I don't spend much time staring before he giggles and we make eye contact.

"You're looking at me like I'm made of candy." He says, smiling and I feel the heat rise to my face.

"Maybe you are... In my eyes." I reply with a wink before getting up and walking to my room before Eren can reply. I swear to myself for my stupid comment and take a quick shower, getting dressed again. There's suddenly a knock at my door and Erwin walks in. "Hey, assfuck. I could've been naked." I snap at him but he doesn't react.

"I have some news." He said simply and I follow him to his office. "Things are going to hell here. Titans have breached Wall Rose again. There's hundreds. They can even be spotted from Wall Sina. I need you to go as far away from here as posi-"

"What?! If anyone can help at all, it'll be me. I'm not going anywhere, fuckhead." I interrupt. He sighs and hangs his head.

"Fine. Watch as everyone you love gets slaughtered. But don't say I didn't warn you." Erwin pushes me out of his office and slams the door in my face. I take off towards the front door of headquarters. Upon stepping outside, all I see is chaos. Blood is splattered on everything and everyone is screaming. And now I see why. Titans. Erwin wasn't kidding when he said there were hundreds, but there were more than that. Thousands, maybe. They were piling into the city, destroying everything. As I scan the scene, I notice Hanji. She's yelling at someone. I run over and see who it is and why. There, sitting next to a sobbing Armin Arlert and Hanji, is the top half of Mikasa Ackerman's body. Blood is pooling around all two and a half of them. I grab Armin and Hanji's hands and drag them both back into the headquarters and to the dining hall. Eren is sitting in there and he runs over when he sees Armin in tears.
