Morse Code- Eremin

Confessions Pt. 2

~ Eren's POV ~
I knew that I had to get to work but I couldn't muster up the strength do even move. Monday hit me like a ton of bricks, and now I was in desperate need of something that would either give me energy to get up and seize the day, or fall back asleep and forget Monday even existed.

Thirty minutes had passed before I realised why I was dreading this day.

An old horse calendar - which was a present for Jean, but he took much offence to it- slumped up against my wall, the wrinkled page read November.

~ The previous night ~

I didn't run marathons, Who runs for fun? My mind seemed to enjoy it too much. All I could do was pace, up and down my room thinking of possible things that could stop me from doing this. The conversation I had with Jean replayed in my mind.

"Why don't you tell him?"

'I just can't Jean. What if he doesn't think the same about me?'

"Who cares? It'll be awkward for like five years and then you'll both move on. But I'm telling you, he likes you too."

'Okay... I guess I'll tell him.'

What a mistake. But, without thinking about anything other than Armin, I pulled that stupid horse calendar out of my dresser. Once my eyes fell upon the 28th of November I wrote out the words I knew I would end up regretting.

~ present time ~

The word 'confession' was scrawled out in messy handwriting. Rolling my eyes, I got up, ready to hide from my commitment. But, that plan proved itself impossible when my phone lit up, showing that I had a text message. Rolling my eyes I reached for my phone and saw that- much to my surprise- Mikasa had texted me.

Jean needs you at work.

Great, because Jean couldn't have told me that. Annoyance had already embedded itself in my mind and now, that was all I could possibly think about.

~-~

Ten minutes had passed and I was running up to the corner where the coffee shop stood. Though, the usual happy and sleepy vibe the shop gave off now seemed threatening. Taking in a deep breath I walked in, making the tinkling bell ring as I did so.

And then I saw him. Armin was sitting in a booth- that was obviously made for about four people- all alone. The only thing keeping him company was his coffee. At that moment the regret I was feeling earlier came back and I wanted to leave.

Then, Jean's face came into view. And he was smirking. Jerking his head towards Armin, I saw him mouth 'go'.

That's when my heart started pounding, but I knew I had to do this.

Walking over to the booth I thought about how to approach this. How to tell Armin. Taking in a deep breath I sat down next to him.

'Hey Armin. It's me Eren.'

"Eren it's so good to see you."

'There's something I really need to tell you Armin.'

"Oh... I do too"

'You first?' I couldn't possibly tell him first.

"Eren I..." He stopped, and he took in a deep breath. "Eren I uh... I want to tell you that... I'm moving to Berlin."
