I opened my eyes and looked around. This looks different. I went to move and I felt an arm around me. Everything came back to me. That's right. I'm in Eren's bed and we're...dating... what the fuck did I do last night? I bit off way more than I could chew. Why did I-.

"Good morning babe," Eren said opening his eyes.

Um uh, "morning," I whispered. I don't know what to do. I just laid my head back down and closed my eyes.

"Are you not fully awake?" He asked letting a little laugh slip out.

I was more hoping if I closed my eyes I'd wake up from this dream. "No, I'm awake," I mumbled, "just... confused." I sighed.

"About what?" He sounded worried.

Why did I agree to this? To any of it? I took a deep breath. "I don't know what to do?" I said and I could tell he was confused. "I mean, I don't know how relationships work, I don't know what I'm supposed to do?" I said closing my eyes so I wouldn't have to see the disappointment in his eyes when he realized he made a mistake trying to date me.

"That's okay, we can figure it out together." Say what now? I opened my eyes and he had a big smile on his face. "Just don't stress yourself out thinking about all this. Hell, I mean I liked how we talked before. I mean relationships are just friendships but more." He said before freezing. Sorry, I know you don't like that word for some reason.

"What word?"

"Friends."

"I don't-" I stopped myself. My immediate reaction to that word is to say I don't want friends. "It's not that I don't like the word," I took a deep breath trying to find a way to explain this without having to explain everything. "I just don't like getting attached to people. Little late now though," I sighed.

"Oh, sorry," he said before placing a kiss on my cheek. But not really. He thought and I couldn't help but roll my eyes as I gave him a smile.

"Asshole."

"Anyway as I was saying. Don't think too much about it, just do whatever feels right and we will go from there." I don't know how he can be so positive about everything.

"I guess," I took a breath before remembering something from last night that really panicked me. "You have to promise me something," I said quickly.

"Um okay? Lay it on me."

"Promise me you'll never go by that cliff again no matter what."

He went from playful to serious as he took my hand in his, "I promise."

"Thank you," I felt a lot better just hearing him say that.

I lifted myself up and out of bed before putting myself down on my side of the room. "We should probably get dressed for the day I said looking back towards Eren.

"That was so cool," Eren said jumping up and out of bed. You just floated! His mind yelled in excitement.

"It's not floating, well not in the same sense as your power."

"Oh yeah, I remember Hanji told me that you could do that. That you use your telekinesis to lift yourself off the ground or something like that." Sounds like a headache.

"Well she's not wrong," he laughed, "and yes, normally it would be a headache for most people with this power especially if their power is a little on the weaker side. However, my powers are stronger than most, not to mention I'm used to constant headaches so this doesn't really affect me," I said before stopping myself. I'm rambling again.

That's so cool, Eren thought. He was grinning at me like a kid in a candy store. I rolled my eyes. " what are you looking at?"

"My boyfriend," Eren said back and my face turned red.

I just threw my pillow at him with my mind. It hit him in the face and I heard him bust out in laughter.

"Someone got embarrassed," he teased.

"Quiet you, or next time it won't be a pillow," I said back and he just gave me a smile. I turned around and started grabbing my clothes.

"I know what I want you to throw at me."

"Oh, and what is that?" I asked turning around and he was right in front of me. He wrapped his arms around me and pressed his lips to mine before pulling away.

"I'd rather you throw yourself into my arms," he said and I rolled my eyes but couldn't help but melt into his touch.

God how touch starved are you? He thought in a playful manner before clearing his throat. "Sorry ignore that," he mumbled.

He's right though. I am touch starved. I haven't had physical contact with another person since I was what 13? Well not including Hanji and Erwin, but they never really hug me or anything. Hell, they barely touch me aside from a pat on the shoulder or Hanji pinching my cheeks to tease me.

"It's fine, you're right," I mumbled back burying my face in his chest.

"Can we just spend the day in bed?" He asked. I just want to lay here and cuddle.

"Okay," I said giving in. Honestly, I couldn't argue with that. This hug felt so nice and I don't know when the last time I laid in bed all day was. I needed the break. I set the clothes I had grabbed onto my bed before walking back over to his bed. We just laid there for a moment in silence.

"If you're uncomfortable we don't have to?" Eren said seeing how nervous I was just laying there. I didn't know what to do. Where do I put my hands? Should I be doing something? Like should I talk? Should I close my eyes?

"No, it's not that," I sighed before sitting up, "I think I'm just hungry," I said before mentally facepalming. Sure because that's what it is and not how unbearably awkward I am.

"Oh, then let's go get some food and we can come back and just hang out." He said and I gave him a nod and a smile. I know he knows that's not it. I can hear his thoughts laughing at how awkward I looked and then telling me it's okay.

He leaned forward and gave me a peck on the lips. "If you want, we can try again later, for now, I'm going to get dressed."

He got up and grabbed some close. "I'm going to change in the bathroom," he said.

"I'll change here," I said and he nodded.

"Okay, yell when you're done so I know when to come out," he said before disappearing into the bathroom.

I finished getting dressed before he did cause when I told him he could come out he said okay but didn't open the door. I just sat on my bed and waited for the door to open so I could finish getting ready. He came out and started putting on his shoes when I went in.

When I came back out he was waiting for me. "Ready?"

"Yup."

"Alright, where do you want to go?" He asked as we headed to the door.

"I don't have anywhere in particular, do you?"

"Not really, I usually just grab food at the cafeteria."

"Well, we could go there, or we could go to another place in town."

"Oh actually I know a really good dinner there," he said excitedly, "my friends and I used to eat there every weekend.

Used too? "Okay, let's go there," I said still wondering if it was okay for me to ask why they don't go there anymore.

We started walking and he looked at me, "spill," he said.

"Huh?"

"You have something on your mind. You keep looking like you want to say something."

"Oh, it might be a personal question," I shrugged.

"So? Ask away," he smiled, "I'm an open book.

Yeah, no surprise there. Can't say that is mutual though. "Why did you and your friends stop going there?"

"Oh, we just got too busy with activities. School got in the way and other events took up there weekend so eventually, we just stopped trying to meet up there. It's fine though, we still see each other every day in class even if we don't talk as much I know we're still friends." I think.

That thought punched me in the gut. So much sadness in two words.

"Anyway, I think you're going to love it. It's a great little place," he said and I could tell he was just changing the subject.

"I'm sure it is," I said as we left the campus.

"It's only a few blocks down," Eren said before thinking a rather quiet thought. Can we hold hands? It's okay if you don't want to-, his thoughts started rambling.

I cut them off by just slipping my hand into his.

Oh. Oh, this is nice," he thought as a smile appeared on his face.

He's so cute and he doesn't even know it. I rolled my eyes but gave a little smile as we walked to the little diner.

"There breakfast is to die for," Eren said as we turned the corner and he spotted the diner. "Sina Rose cafe" I read as I saw the sign.

"Yup, that's it," he said happily before we made it to the entrance. It was mildly busy and I started to pull out my headphones from my pocket as a wave of strangers thoughts hit me. That was until Eren's thoughts cut threw them all and stopped me from putting them in.

We need to leave. His hand slipped out of mine.

"What why?" I asked but Eren just turned around and walked out before saying another word. I looked up and saw the reason. Two kids from our class, they were new like Eren, I think they must be the friends Eren was talking about. They must have seen Eren walk out cause they jumped up and were heading this way. I just walked out and tried to find Eren.

"Eren?" I called looking around he wasn't anywhere in sight. Behind the cafe, he thought.

I walked around the corner of the restaurant and he was sitting on the ground with his knees tucked into his chest.

"Guess they never stopped coming here, they just stopped coming here with me," he said, his voice shaking a little.

"Eren?" I heard someone call around the front of the restaurant.

"Eren where are you?" The other voice called out.
