Better Off This Way: Eren Jaeger x Reader [MODERN]

~Chapter 4~

It's been a little bit since my new set up began, Eren gives me a heads up whenever he's planning on having friends over or if he's not planning on coming home, and I the same. You know, typical roommate stuff.
He has a car, although he usually can't drive me to the school since we have different schedules.
I have classes in the afternoon on Monday through Wednesday, Eren has classes Monday until Wednesday as well, just his start in the morning.

I return home from my afternoon classes and as I open the door I hear voices. I suppose Eren forgot tell me he was having people over?
I peak over and notice him talking to an average height blonde boy.
Ugh, I don't want to talk to people.
Fuck it, I'm just gonna rush to my room so I won't get sucked into conversation.
"Hey! There she is! [Y/N], come meet my friends." Eren spoke.
Fuck.
"Nope, no thanks." I said quickly.
"What?" Eren gave a confused look.
"Oh. Um- just kidding. Haha."

Eren proceeded to introduce me to everyone else, Mikasa (whom I've graciously been aquatinted with already via the events of last week.) Armin, which happened to be the blonde boy I saw him speaking with earlier. Reiner, Bertholdt, Connie, Historia, Annie, Ymir, and friend of a friend, Jean. He has SO many friends! Everyone must really like him I guess...
However, I seem to be picking up weird vibes between Eren and Jean as they seem to bicker.... a lot.

"Okay cool. Well, nice to meet yo-"
"Actually [Y/N], we're gonna head to the bar. Do you wanna come?" Eren asked.
Eh... people. No- you know what? I should go. I always talk about how annoying everyone is but I never actually give them a chance. I'm gonna force myself to do this.
"Hello?" Eren waved in front of my face.
"Uh- yes. I'll come. Just let me change." I said.
Eren gave a nod in response.

I slipped on a black velvet dress with a Peter Pan collar, and paired it with black combat boots as well as an army jacket.
I'll admit, my style varies from homeless old man to vintage white girl, but I think I pull it off okay.

I hitched a ride with Eren and Mikasa, and judging by how Mikasa was speaking I don't think she likes Eren's girlfriend much.
Should I be worried? Is Madeline going to become an issue at the house? Not that I wouldn't be able to handle it. She doesn't strike me as someone who could do so much as even open her own jar of pickles.
I would just prefer to be able to live in my house without wondering if maleficent is going to come slit open my throat in my sleep, ya know?

We pulled up outside of a bar and everyone headed in.

Suddenly, I felt my phone buzz.
"Hello?"
"Hi." Levi's monotone voice came trough on the other line.
"Can I help you?" I asked.
"Yes. I will be stopping by on Thursday to see how everything is going and to drop off your stupid cat, he's been an absolute nuisance since you left. Make sure everything is clean or I'll have your head." Levi replied.
"His NAME is LEO." I scoff.
"Whatever, did you hear what I said?" "Yeah yeah alright, fair. Anything else?" I ask once again.
"Yes. Who are you with? I hear voices. You don't have friends."
"First of all, I'm offended. Second of all, not true. I have friends! Well- like- 2, but that's still quite a lot. Third of all, I'm out with Eren and HIS friends whom he previously introduced me to. Anything else?" I reply.
"No, that's all. Have... fun I guess. See you Thursday at noon sharp."
"Why so early? It's not even a-"
"Because I said so. Goodbye." And with that, Levi hung up the phone.
"Let me guess, Levi?" Eren smirked.
"You betcha. Grumpy as usual. Can you believe it? He said I didn't have friends. Pft." I scoff.
"Well you don't really strike me as the type. We've been living under the same roof for nearly 2 weeks and not once have you gone out or had anyone over except for your brother." Eren teased.
"Hey! I have friends! I have like 2 girl friends we just... go through phases." I casually sip my drink.
"Well, consider me your friend then." Eren smiled.
"Deal." I returned the smile.

Wow.... Is it just me or his he.. kinda really cute?...
What? No. Shut up [Y/N]. He has a girlfriend. To think about Eren that way? Nah. No way. Annoying. That is what he is.
Anyways, moving on.

Suddenly, I heard my phone ring. The UFO tone grasps my attention every time.
"Hello?"
