Eremin One Shots

One Shot 4: The Boy Who Helped

A/N: So finally a happy one because the last three were sad. You're welcome.

ARMINS POV

My eyes sting. My head hurts. My throat is dry. I bawl my eyes out into my hands, no end to be seen. My bruised arms and legs throb. Another day of bullies and red eyes and excuses to my grandfather.
"Hey Blondie!" Huh? Who's that?
A brown haired boy with stunning sea-green eyes reached his hand out to me. "Let me help you out there!"
He's... He's beautiful! Like the boys of fairy tales, a prince!
"What's stopping ya?" He says confidently.
I smile as I use his outstretched hand as a lever to pull myself up.
"Hey, I'm Eren! What's wrong?"
His eyes look deep into mine.
"I- I'm Armin..." I stutter, my heart pounding.
"Armin, what's wrong?" Eren asks once again.
"Well, there were these bullies, and they..." Even though I just met him, it felt like I could tell him everything.
"You know what Armin?"
"Wha-" he suddenly kissed my lips.
Oh my god. This beautiful boy I just met. He pulled away with a smile on his face. What just happened???
"How's that?" He smirked.
Without me realising, I suddenly kissed him back.

That was when we were ten. Now, I stand, 15 years later, staring and the same hand he used to help me up, and gazing at the same sparkling green eyes that brightened my future. I smile.
"Do you, Eren Jaeger, take Armin Arlert as your loving husband..."
