Pathway [Eremin AU]

Chapter Three//Armin

(Edited chapter)
I wake up to my alarm and sit up. I sigh and stand up. I stretch my arms and grab my phone. I see a text.
"Armin Arlert... Have you made up your mind on if you can go on the trip?" I read.
  "Geez Sasha," I mumble, "Give me time."
"I can't go. I had to think about it, and I can't go. I have some major plans set for these next two weeks." I type.
"Alright. Thanks party pooper." She types. I sigh and set my phone down I then see a note left on my nightstand.
If you want to do that dance club, I would go sign up before I say no.
Love you.
-Mom
I chuckle and leave it where it is. I walk to grab some clothes and I pull out a white and blue tee shirt and a pair of kakis. I slip them on and I grab some socks then some white vans. I quickly put the socks and shoes on then grab all I need. I slip on a vest and make sure I have my wallet and phone. I make sure to brush my teeth and hair then I walk down stairs and grab an apple. I hold it with my mouth as I walk out of my house and lock the door behind me. I see that my dad left his bike home and I walk over to it. I pop up the kick stand and put one foot on the petal. I throw my other leg over after pushing off. I then ride down the drive way and quickly finish my apple, throwing the core behind me. I then ride in the middle of the road because I don't see anyone's car. I then see the town ahead of me. I let my feet off the petals as I go down a small hill. I move my bike onto a sidewalk and avoid hitting people. I pull up to the dance place and put my bike by a bike rack. I then take the chain out of the basket on the bike and chain my bike and take the key. I walk into the club and see Carla.
  "Hello," She smiles.
  "I was here yesterday and got everything approved of," I say and smile.
  "Awesome! Armin, right?" She asks.
  "Yep," I say and put my hands in my pockets.
  "What do you plan on doing? Lessons or the squad?" She asks.
  "If possible, the squad," I chuckle.
  "Sure! All you have to pay for is the uniforms we wear and trip expenses," She says, "Plus food, sometimes. And if you can't afford some stuff, we'll try our best to help you pay for it all."
  "Ok! Sounds good," I say.
  "You can come to practice tomorrow if you want. Today we have practice, but you should probably watch and you probably don't have any clothes for this kind of stuff," She says.
  "Yeah, true," I say and she walks towards a door in the back.
  "This is our main room for practice," She says and I walk over. She opens it and walks in. Up a flight of stairs there is a room with wooden floors and the back wall has some pads along it, which are probably used for practicing stunts. Mirrors are on all the walls besides the one by the stairs. One corner has carpet and some Christmas lights hung up with a fridge and a few couches. Big blue and pink light up letters hang over the main mirror, spelling out Dancing Titans. But the s and a in both are out.
  "This is so big!" I say, surprised.
  "Yep! Historia thought of dark wood," Carla says and walks to the couches. She then plops down and I see several different people in the room.
  "No, Jean, you keep messing that up," A boy with freckles says to a boy with two different tones of hair. That horse face is kinda cute. I think to myself.
  "That one little blonde girl is Historia," Carla says as I walk over by her to feel a bit more comfortable.
  "Wait, isn't she the mayors daughter?!" I ask.
  "Yeah. Somehow her dad let her join this club. She's in one of the richest families in the world, yet she decided not to go to a professional level," She says.
  "Wow," I say.
  "That's Ymir next to her, then you have Jean, the horse face, and next to him you have Marco, then we have Bertolt and Reiner over there. Then my son, Eren, and adopted daughter, Mikasa," Carla says.
"Is there anyone else?" I ask.
"Yeah, but they aren't here yet," She says. I nod and hear some foot steps trail up the stairs till I see messy brown hair start to pop up to where I can see it.
"Oi, Jeager!" I hear a familiar voice. The person finally is in full view.
"Mrs. Zoë?!" I say suprised.
"Arlert?!" She says and drops the bag of cans in her hand.
"Why are you here?!" I ask and she picks up the bag.
"I'm part of the team, you dumby," She chuckles.
"How come I didn't know about this?" I ask.
"We may be close, but have I ever shared personal info with you?" She asks, "Like my first name or hobbies?"
"No," I say, "Speaking of which, what is your first name?"
"Hange, Hange Zoë," She says and points her thumb at herself, "And this is what I do outside of school."
"This is going to get awkward," I mumble and face palm.
"Hey, lighten up!" She says and throws her arm around my shoulders as she tosses the bag she had, onto the couch.
"Why should I exactly? I'm on the same dance team as my chemistry and biology teacher," I say and look at her.
"I'm your favorite teacher though!" She cheers.
"But also the most crazy," I state. She just smiles and laughs and puts the cans of beer and pop in the fridge.
"So you're joining?" Hange asks. I nod.
"You two know each other?" Carla asks, budging in.
"Yep!" Hange cheers. Hange then run out to the dance floor in a tank top and yoga pants.
"This sight will never leave my mind... Seeing my teacher in yoga pants," I sigh and sit on the couch.
"Yeah, you'll enjoy this," Carla says and stands up, "I'm going to get to work." She skips off and onto the dance floor. She walks to a wall and turns on some lights that line the walls.
This is going to get interesting.

(A/N: Alright, so I'm spelling Hanji, as Hange, because that's how it's spelled in the manga, but I might switch to Hanji later because I'm used to typing it that way. But oh well. Hope you all enjoyed and sorry this was a late update!
I had a party to go to the weekend and didn't have service, so I couldn't update.
