Attack On Titan Short Stories

Nightmare

Armin's POV

I woke up with a bad feeling. Someone was crying. I could only hear it slightly from my room, but I followed the noise. It was coming from outside the house. I silently opened the front door and walked out into the warm summer night air. Sitting in a corner on the porch was Abby, huddled in a ball. I walked over and sat down next to her. I didn't say anything, I just looked at her.

She looked up at me with tears still running down her face. Wiping her tears with her shirt, she smiled.

"Hey, what are you doing out here?"

"I was just making sure you were okay" I tried to smile back at her, but I couldn't. It killed me to see her so hurt.

"Ya, I'm fine" I could see through her fake smile. I rested my forehead on hers.

"No your not" my whisper made her smile disappear and silent tears streamed down her face again. I pulled her into my lap and wrapped my arms around her. She clung to me until there were no more tears spilling from her eyes.

Her head was burried in my chest as I sat slowly rocking her.

"Thank you Armin"

"I'll always be here for you" I mumbled by her ear.

"Promise?"

"Promise."
