Home is Where the Heart Is (Aruani Fanfic)

Why Him?

'Why do I like this guy.' Annie thought as she ate her food and watched Attack on Titan with Armin Arlert. 'Of all the boys why him?' she thought. "So who's your favorite character?" Armin asked. "Levi of course!!" Annie exclaimed. "I know right. He's a damn badass." Armin said excitedly. "ARMIN!" Monica called from the kitchen. "YOU KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT CURSING IN THE CAFE!" "SORRY!" Armin screamed back. "Hey how do you know Monica?" Annie asked. "Well I was looking for a job and Monica was handing out samples at the annual Food Festival. I asked if she had any job openings and she said yeah. We set up a appiontment and she took my resumé and ripped it half." "WHAT!" Annie exclaimed. "Wait I'm not finished. She went on to say that she could see that I was talented and gave me the job. I work here on the weekends and school breaks." Armin said. "Does she have any other openings? I need to get away from Yeager and his band of merry assholes." Annie asked with a frown. "Actually yeah. Her fiancee, Daniel, had to go to California for a technical engineer conference. Won't be back for a couple months." Armin said. "Cool." Annie breathed. "Actually I'll talk to her now." Armin said as he stood up. "You can use my laptop if you want." Armin said, walking away towards the kitchen. 'He is so chill.' Annie thought. She went to his music playlist. She forgot her phone. As she scrolled down the list, Eren came over and sat down next to her. A little too close. He slung his arm around Annie's shoulders. "Hey what chu doing on four-eye's laptop?" he asked. "None of your business!" Annie said shrugging Eren off her. "Oh c'mon babe. You know you want me." Eren said said as he kissed her. "Get off!" Annie said pulling away. Eren grip got tighter. "I said you want me. Now kiss me back!" he said slapping her. His his hands reach for Annie's chest. She started to cry. 'WHY ME? WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE ME?' Annie thought as Eren violated her. She started to black out. Suddenly she saw Armin standing behind Eren. "WHAT THE HELL?" he screamed. Monica raced in and saw the incident. Armin grabbed Eren and yanked him away from Annie. Monica gently carried Annie to Hansel who took her downstairs to the bathroom where he will wait outside listening to her cry holding back his own tears and anger. Meanwhile Monica watched as Armin savagely beat Eren. "HOW COULD DO THAT? YOU'RE A PIECE OF SHIT!" Armin screamed at Eren, as Monica pulled him off Eren. Armin stopped struggling and calmly walked over a bleeding, trembling Eren. "Touch her again and you'll be breathing through a tube." Armin said, his voice cold as ice. Eren shakily sat up and spat blood in Armin's face. Armin kicked Eren in the chest, breaking his rib. He then grimly nodded at Monica, went into the cafe, sneered at the populars and jocks, and went downstairs to check on Annie with his shirt covered in Eren's blood.
