Hi guys! I'm bored. Just watched Aot for the first time in months.

Ereri ensued.

Eren P.O.V.

The day started off pretty well. A blizzard had blown through over night, so the Scouts were given a day off so they didn't break their necks trying to train in the ice.

So of course Eren decided to train inside.

Mikasa and Armin had said he was crazy, and went with the others to play outside in the snow. They're like children. He thought as he watched them through a window.

Grinning, he turned and began to run, only to slam face-first into five foot eight of horse.

Jean staggered backwards, but didn't fall. "Watch it, Jaeger!" He snapped. "Watch yourself, Horse Face." Eren growled softly. Why did Jean have to be the only one who stayed in? Eren would have preferred Mikasa or even Corporal Levi.

The blond boy narrowed his eyes and lifted a fist threateningly. "What did you say, Jaeger?" Eren felt his self control snap. "I said go find Marco's right side."

Even as the words left his mouth, he knew it was the worst possible thing to say. Jean's face showed shock, sadness, then fury. Eren almost felt bad.

And then Jean pushed him in the face.

The sudden pain left him reeling, but he shoved forward blindly, knocking Jean over in the process.

And then things got ugly.

Eren sighed as he shoveled yet another scoop of snow out of the pathway. Erwin had assigned him the job after Eren had been cleared by the nurse. That damn fight had left Jean with a black eye and a broken rib, but Eren's nose was slightly fractured and he had a bleeding bite on his shoulder, so he couldn't tell who got the worst of it. It would have been a hell of a lot worse if Mikasa hadn't seen them from outside and broken up the fight. And Jean's rib.

Of course, Horse Face was busy repairing some planks in the stables, where he belonged. Eren certainly didn't want to be repairing the planks. There were thousands, after Cadet Luna had "accidentally" left her horse's stall open and he rampaged through the stables. It took Mikasa, Erwin and a very pissed off Levi to stop it.

But at least it's warm in the stables. He thought, shivering. The pathway was beginning to show through the thick snow, but Eren wasn't too positive. He had been clearing the snow for two hours, and there was a massive pile beside him, but the work had barely made a dent. His fingers and most of his face was numb.

At least it's quiet. His head was pounding, and if he had to spend another minute around the others, his head might just explode. If snow was good for anything, it was absorbing sound. Terrible for finding titans, but pretty good for a hangover.

Just then, the wind picked up. The pile beside Eren flew everywhere, settling all over him and the ground. "Son of a bitch!" He cursed, glaring at the collapsed pile.
