✨Chapter 2: Partners✨

A cigarette...

——

I stand there for a good 20 seconds before he stares at me "Are you done staring now?" The boy asked me I jumped a little realizing he knew I was standing here the whole time
"Y-Yeah.. but shouldn't you get to class..?" I asked him seriously
He looked into my eyes as he takes the cigarette out of in between his lips flicking the edge of it as black ash comes off it "Why are you asking questions?" He asked me
"Well since you didn't answer my question, I'm gonna ask you more" I said putting a hand on my hip at that moment I literally felt like a mother
He chuckles a bit and throws the cigarette on the floor stepping on it twisting his foot as it goes out and walks past me with his hands in his pockets
"I'm going 'Mother', cya whatever your name is" he waved and walked off
I felt my eye twitch as I took a deep breath and walked to my last class of the day

...PHOTOGRAPHY...
My favorite class that's just it, I have a A in the class and yeah

I get to Photography and open the door to see people and I saw him..
the boy with the cigarette
I felt my eye twitch again as I walked to my seat which out of all surprised was right NEXT to him.. our teacher Mr. Levi walked into the room as he told everyone to be quiet so he can explain the project we have to do next

"Hello everyone, you might be wondering why you are sitting with other people today, well" he took his pen and tapped it against his desk
"The person you are sitting with is your new partner for this project you are gonna work on" he says
I slowly slam my head into the desk and look at the boy he was smirking never in my life did I ever wanted to smack that smirk right off his face as I sit back up looking at Mr. Levi
"Your project is to take photos, I don't care what kind just make sure it's appropriate and we won't have a problem, but one thing you HAVE to follow!" He yells Cleary so we can hear
"You both have to be in every photo! Or most of them" he crosses his arms
"Don't give me attitude about this shit, talk to your partner, set up times to work together and finally take the photos and put them on a presentation and get ready to present it in exactly 3 months! Time flies when your picturing" he says
"Everyone get to know your partners for the rest of class and figure stuff out!" He yelled once again then sat on his chair

I groaned and looked at the boy
"Guess your gonna have to get use to me" he said
I put my hand out
"I'm y/n" I wanted to know his name so when I talk shit about him I don't have to use the word boy
He looks at my hand but doesn't take it but he says his name
"Eren Jaeger, just call me Eren" he says
I smirked and put my hand down
"I think I'll call you Ereh, sounds funnier" I shrugged as he looked at me serious like the look that says 'Don't call me that unless I tell you too' or 'Don't fucking call me that you fucking wannabe or ill fucking kill you' tho I couldn't tell which one—
It was silence for about a minute then I spoke
"When do you wanna start working?"

He looked at me and stood up
"Follow me" then he started walking to Levi's desk as I follow behind him
"Can me and my partner work outside, it's to loud in here for me to concentrate?" He asked
Levi sighed and nodded "Be back 5 minutes before the bell rings" we both nodded and then left as we walked outside on our way Eren stopped by his locker and took out a camera/lens/ etc.  in all honestly I didn't think he would be interested in this stuff,
"Come on, shortie" he chuckled then went outside
I hate being called a wannabe but being called shortie triggers me more! I groaned and walked outside to see Eren sitting on a bench with trees in front of him the way the leaves fell and Eren stood out so much I could have easily taken a photo but nope I didn't have a camera nor my phone but I did visualize it inside my head I walked my way over to lean my arms against the back on the bench on the rim looking in front then the wind came in my h/c flew my legs were crossed as I felt relaxed then I heard it

*Click*

I quickly turn around to see Eren with his camera in his hands
"Did you really take a photo of me?!"
He nodded
I walked up to him kinda mad as I take the camera out of his hands and looked at it I was going to delete but then.. I see why he took it..

I was standing there with my arms against the top rim leaning forward a bit the wind came in and leaves flew across me it made my clothes move and my hair fly with the leaves my legs were crossed, the angle was perfect as well.. as I realized...
when your distracted it's a perfect time to take a photo.. cause the model as no idea and it makes it look less forced, maybe just now I'm not mad at Eren
"It's beautiful.. how did that work so perfectly..?" I asked him as I lift my head up not deleting it and handed his camera back to him
He gladly accepted it and smiled taking his lighter and another cigarette out
"Because, when you take a photo of when the model knows you are there makes it sloppy but imagine when you take the photo but the model doesn't know it's like the model is in its relax mode making the photo more interesting"
When he said that.. the image of him sitting at the bench when I walked out was inside my head..

He put the cigarette between his lips and lit the edge away from him having his hand around it so the wind doesn't make the flame go out as he moves his hand and out his lighter back into his pocket and I smelled it again..

The smell of the smoke coming out of the cigarette..
