Have you ever sat awake at night thinking about the universe? Have you ever thought about how insignificant our existence really is? No? Well let me tell you something that might change your perspective.

You; are one person, out of 7 billion people. On one planet, out of seven planets. In one star system, out of 100 billion star systems. In one galaxy, out of 100 billion galaxies.

My mom always told me about how someday I'd find the person for me. The one out of 7 billion people. The one I'd fall in love with.

What is love? When another person's happiness is your happiness? I think it's more complex. Have you found that person that you love? The one you know for sure is the one. I'm pretty damn sure I've found them.

I'm Eren Jaeger and I fell hopelessly in love with my best friend, Levi Ackerman.

Getting a nice place could finally be checked off of Eren's post-college list of ambitions. He was glad to finally be free of the dorms. Not that he didn't like them, but he needed more space. No longer an intern, no more student loans, he could finally afford it.

The sound of the doorbell made Eren perk up. He waltzed out of the kitchen and into the entryway to open the door and was met with Mikasa, her girlfriend Annie, Armin and his boyfriend, Erwin. Eren smiled brightly and welcomed them into his home.

"It's really nice, Eren!" Armin praised as he walked inside. Mikasa nodded her head with a small smile on her lips as she took in her surroundings. Annie mumbled a "not bad" and Erwin agreed. Eren had sort of a monochrome thing going on. In the living room, Two black leather couches came together in the corner and were accented with white silk pillows and a plush zebra striped blanket.

In the front center of the couches was an ottoman that matched the couches. Under that was a grey rug that was used so the wooden legs of the ottoman didn't scratch the stained black hardwood floors. Opposite from the couches on the other side of the room was a black oak entertainment center, Movies and CDs were neatly arranged behind the glass and above was a 52" inch flat screen precisely mounted on the snow white wall. Eren was just glad they like it.

In the next twenty minutes his house was crawling with idiots.

Sasha and Connie had "taken a seat" on the couch, meaning Sasha had her back on the lower cushion and her legs on the upper cushion, facing the roof with a bowl of Hot Cheetos on her stomach. While Connie sat with his legs brought up to his chest as he suicidally took chips from Sasha's bowl.

Jean and Marco sat on the balcony that was right outside if the living room. The view was immaculate, The emerald green grass of the Golf cours that the Trost Town Houses ran through, the evergreen trees peeking from behind the roofs of the lower level homes. The reflection of the sun, low in the sky, glimmering on the ripples of the pond that was on the sidelines of the golf course. The couple aat and took in the serenity of the remaining sun in the sky.

Mikasa, Armin, and Erwin were sitting at the dining room table, laughing and reminiscing over a photo album that was from theirs and Eren's childhood.

Hanji was pestering Moblit to help her use her slingshot and shoot biscuits at unsuspecting elderly people who walked leisurely walked along the golf course.

It was nice to see everyone after four months of being away. But Eren couldn't find himself content, Levi wasn't here.

The group sat around in the living room, playing the infamous Cards Against Humanity and other games. And a whole two hours hour passed with laughter and smiles. Making Eren's lonely home seem alive for once. He would dread the time everyone left. He'd be back in the despairing oblivion that was his house. He shook his head and stood from the couch, walking to the kitchen. He opened the fridge and pulled out a carton of condensed Thai tea mix.
