Stepping into a new part of your life, sorrows from your past that were drowning you - disappeared. A change to start over, what you needed.
You fell straight into a tight knit friend group, who welcomed you. You promised yourself, and others, that you wouldn't let yourself get sucked into the depth and abyss of Eren. It was an easy mistake for many, but not for you.
Yet, in times of tenderness & vulnerability, you collided close to him, and so did he to you. He was damaged, hurt. Wounds that felt like only you could heal him from. You and him mirrored one another, it was like destiny - set for you in the stars and the ground. Hearts from one another were stringed.
But was it all worth it in the end?
─
What starts as a rivalry between the two of you, blossoms into two paths intertwining into one.
