I shouldn't love him

"Inconvenience.."

Sebastian entered king rods office and hesitantly approached his desk. "Is there something the matter?" Rod looked up from his papers and up at his butler who seemed worried. "Well.. I have some terrible news sir.. we can't seem to find Historia anywhere."

Rod immediately stood up angered. "None-sense! I told you to know her whereabouts at all times.. she's a sneaky one."

"My apologies- S-she told us she was going to the kitchen a few hours ago, and I asked around for her whereabouts and no one was aware, now that I recall she was acting rather suspicious."

"Ridiculous... send people to search for her at once." Rod ordered and Sebastian immediately got to work "yes sir.."

Historia opened her eyes and squinted them once the sunlight hit her. She felt she was laying down in a bed. An uncomfortable one. It was a very odd feeling for Historia. Considering the fact that she slept in the same luxurious bed her entire life.

Waking up to a different room was very strange.

Where am I...?

She sat up and looked around the room, it was rather plain. The tile on the floor was a bit cracked and stained, the room only had a desk with drawers and a bed which she was laying in. The room was old but it wasn't messy.

The lost princess just looked around the room confused.

What am I doing here...?

Historia has a hard time recalling the events that had led her up to here because of a massive headache that distracted her.

She heard footsteps coming her way so she immediately laid back down and closed her eyes.

"Hello?"

She heard a slightly familiar voice speak and approach her. "Are you awake?"

Who is he..? I'll just pretend like I'm sleep til he leaves.

"I know you're awake"

He knows... no he doesn't he's bluffing.

"You aren't fooling anyone."

I'll pretend like I just woke up.. yeah!

"Hm..?" Historia opened her eyes slowly and looked at him.

"You aren't fooling me.. I know you've been awake for a good minute." He sighed.

She recognized him. He stared down at her with his bright ocean eyes. He had long black haired slicked into a bun and a strong bone structure.

It's the bartender from before!

He was holding a tray with a drink and what appeared to be soup.

Suddenly all the memories from earlier came back.

There was so much running through Historias mind that she just started at him.

"Here's some food, I'm not giving this to you because I care about you or anything, you're rather annoying me already and I don't even know you, I just feel bad for you. " Eren handed Historia the tray and bent down beside her.

"You look like you've seen a ghost..." he tucked some of her blond hair behind her ear. "Why are you so pail? It looks like you haven't eaten in days. Are you perhaps a runaway? Or are you missing your parents? How old are you by the way? You look way too young to be alone in this town.. not that I care or anything, I'm rather curious."

Historia just stared back at Eren not knowing what to say. The only thing she could think of was the food on her plate. To say she was starving was an understatement. Historia reverted her eyes away from Eren and started eating away at her soup. She drank her water down so fast, Historia was dehydrated.

Dehydrated, starving, and exhausted.

"You choose to ignore me huh.." Eren got up and started to walk out the room but stopped when he heard her set down the bowl. He turned around to see her holding an empty bowl out to him. She smiled.

Eren rolled his eyes and took the bowl from her and brought it with him.

Shortly he returned with another bowl full of soup.

Historia didn't hesitate to start eating the second bowl. Eren found her behavior rather funny. He pulled a chair over and sat next to the bed to watch her. She didn't seem to mind. "You're rather an inconvenience to have around, you haven't said not one word since you've woken up. All you've done is sleep and eat- and use my bed, I've slept on the floor since you've arrived."

"Thank you for saving me yesterday." Historia smiled at Eren warmly with a bit of food stuck to her lip. Eren couldn't help but smile back, it was more a scoffed grin though.

He reached over and wiped the food of her lip with his thumb and she didn't even react she just went back to eating. "I didn't save you, those guys didn't pay for their drinks so I killed them, it has nothing to do with you. You just so happened to be there." Eren stared at Historia and watched her eat.

"Hm... thank you anyways. I would have been dead yesterday if not for you." Historia looked down at her empty bowl and handed it to him again.

"Or worse.." Eren mumbled to himself on his way out to get her more food. "Oh by the way, those events didn't take place yesterday, you've been asleep for almost two days."

Two days!?
