JUST A REMINDER MY TUMBLR IS: FanFictionForTheWin

"Hey Armin, I'm on my way to get you. You ready?" Armin read the message, feeling his stomach drop.

"Shit! I forgot! What do do? What do I wear?" Armin panicked slightly and ran around his room, finding clothes of different kinds, throwing each away if deemed unfit.

He finally decided to wear something casual. He wore a old band T-shirt (that wasn't even possible to read with all of the designs on it ) a pair of black jeans and black boots with a red flannel around his waist. He liked the outfit but couldn't figure out what to do with his hair.

"Fuck it," He thought, grabbing two hair ties. "I'll put it in a bun."

He started working on his hair, strands too short for the bun had fallen in his face but he could care less at the moment. He had his phone in his pocket along with his black leather wallet. He heard a knock on his front door and almost fell over trying to finish his hair and grab his glasses.

"Come on in, I'm just getting some of my things." Armin texted him.

He heard the door open and grabbed his favorite band bracelets and put them on. He finally deemed himself ready. He walked down the oh-so-familiar hallway and walked down the stairs he has fallen down on many occasions due to being the klutz he is. He turned the corner and seen the brunette looking at his bookshelf. Armin smiled softly and leaned against the wall. He rolled his eyes as the brunette didn't notice his presence.

"I know you're there Armin," Eren giggled causing Armin to jump slightly.

Armin puffed his cheeks, annoyed at not being able to scare the other man. He crossed his arms and looked the other way teasingly. Eren rolled his eyes and wrapped his arms around the blonde's shoulder. Arim jumped slightly but smiled nonetheless. He wrapped his arm around Eren's waist and they walked outside. Eren decided it would cool if they walked to a nearby park and hung out. Armin agreed and they walked with Eren's arm wrapped carefully around armin's shoulder and Armin's around his waist. Armin sat his head comfortably on Eren's shoulder, making the taller male blush. They reached the park after a bit of walking.

"I'll race you to the swings!" Eren declared.Armin giggled letting go of Eren's waist.

Eren laughed and ran behind the blonde purposely letting him win, even if he could beat him in a race Armin definitely had more stamina. Armin smiled up at the taller male and Eren sat in the swing next to him. Armin started moving back and forth on the swing going higher each time he kicked up. Eren followed suit and Armin put his right hand out, nudging Eren's. Eren smiled and held the other boys as they swung in unison.

A few hours later the boys saw the sky turn dark and deciding to head back home. While walking they held hands. It wasn't intentionally romantic but they still felt like they were in a cheesy romantic novel.

"I had fun tonight Armin, you're interesting in a way." Eren giggled out when they reached Armin's front porch.

They were still holding hands until Armin pulled his back. He started moving his hands in a way that was foreign to Eren.

"Shit," Armin thought."How do I sign ' I had fun too.' I probably look like a dork."

Eren pulled Armin's hands down and giggled. "I'm glad you had fun too!" He smiled.

Armin looked up at him surprised. " okay, let's sign 'You can read sign language'"

"No, I can't but, I can read m-" Eren stopped himself and Armin looked up at him confused. "Eyes. I can see it in your eyes."

Armin rolled his eyes and playfully pushed Eren's chest. "You're a dork, Eren" he quickly signed the response the best he could.

"I try," Eren giggled and bowed.

Armin finally waved goodnight and went into his house. Eren took this as a sign to get in his car. When he got in he dialed Marco's phone only for it to go to voicemail.

"You will never believe the day I had."

AN: AHHHH I LOVE THIS ALREADY
