STORY STARTS----

[Time Skip]

After spending a few hours at the library you left. Well you would of stayed but Armin was being all weird because he finished his book. You watched him put away the book and guide you away from it. Weird. I'm definitely coming back later. His face was already reddened despite the cold. Once you reached the

cross streets in from of your school he spoke.

"Y/N I'm feeling a kind of sick. I'm gonna go home.... sorry."

You looked over at him; who made no eye contact with you whatsoever, and felt his forehead. Cold. He wasn't hot or anything but you decided to just drop it.

"Alright."

This is a perfect time to go back and get the book before I forget.

"I hope you feel better soon."

"T-thanks..."

He hugged you; wrapping his thick snow coat covered arms around your waist.

"I'll see you tomorrow..."

He ran across the street in a hurry to get home. You stayed and waited till he was out of sight. Alright. Time to go back. You ran in the opposite direction back to the library. Running in the front doors with a warm gust of heated air hitting you, you passed the librarian.

"Back again?"

She cracked with a rude tone in her voice.

"Y-yes... I forgot to sign out the book I wanted."

"Mm."

You ran back down the isles tracking a bit of wet footprints. There. You grabbed the well hidden book and went back to the front desk. The women sat up from her slouched position and flashed the scanner over the bar code.

"You're getting this book!?"

She practically spit and yelled.

"Yes..."

You replied questionably back at her. She let out a sigh and gave it to you.

"It's due back in a week."

She hissed.

"Alright thankyou."

You said trying to flash a smile before running back out. Jeez, what's her problem. It's just a book.

[Time Skip]

You ran in your front door and closed it.

"Fucking cold..."

You snapped; taking off your boots. You instantly ran upstairs and into your room.

"Time to read this."

You narrated opening the cover.

"Blah blah blah... Contains mature scenes and language ect.... I'm not 3 you idiots..."

You read off the first page then flipping to the next. The table of contents. There were some weird names in it. Chapters 1-4 Mia x John. Chapters 5-6 Farah x Lillian. Chapters 7-8 Female x Reading Male. Chapters 9-10 Other Explicit One-Shot Scenes. Then the end. You flipped the page, kind of concerned about the content. You read on through the mind boggling pornographic story. You slammed it shut after things started getting a bit too heated.

W-why does he like this? He said it was a favorite book? Maybe I grabbed the wrong one? No, I couldn't have. I took it from the same spot that he left it. You stood up.

"You know what I shouldn't judge him. It's his taste... so whatever."

You ran to the bathroom to take a nice hot bubble bath. It's just what I need.

[Time Skip to Around 8pm]

You lay down on your bed looking up at your phone; you held over your face.

"Still no texts from Armin."

Hey... how you feeling?

You texted him. The three dots came up.

•••

A bit better now. Thanks. Just needed to relax a bit. Whatcha doing?

Laying in bed... very bored!

•••

Hmm. Same.

Can we hang?

My moms at work. I shouldn't really leave the house.

Can I come over there.

The three dots reappeared then disappeared for a few long minutes.

•••

I don't know... maybe in like 10-20 minutes?

Sure. Text me when you want me to come over.

Okay...

You lay back in a comfortable position and awaited the next ding. I wonder what he's up too... should I ask him about the book? Its such an awkward topic though. Even if I wanted to address the subject, I don't even know how I'd bring it up. You let out a loud sigh of frustration. Ding, your phone rang. You looked over at the time. It's been about 10 minutes since he last texted me. I guess I was lost in my thoughts. You sat up and unlocked your phone.

You can come over now...

Your phone read.

Okay Ill be there soon

•••

K see you soon :)

You got up; slipping your phone into your pocket, then ran downstairs to the front door. Once you got into your winter gear you exited your house in the frozen tundra known as your city/town. Geez it's cold. You turned the corner and crossed the street. Should I confront him about it? I'm stuck at crossroads. I mean I'm kind of a concerned friend and I just wanna know what's going on. But on the other hand I feel like I should just leave it and not bother him. You ran up the frozen driveway and the porch to the door.

Before you could knock Armin came and opened the door.

"Come in quick. You must be freezing."

He asserted. You ran inside and slammed the door shut behind yourself.

"Hey..."

You shuttered.

"Hey."

He said taking your coat as you kicked off your boots.

"Thanks."

The both of you ran upstairs to his room. You lay down on his bed. It was oftly warm. Was he sleeping before?

"Hey did I wake you up?"

"No why?"

"The beds warm. I just thought you were sleeping..."

"O-Oh I was! Yeah earlier! But I'm awake now!"

He replied skittishly. Weirdo.

"Kay'... anyways... you feeling any better?"

"Y-yeah... I think sleeping helped...."

"Good... hey Armin?"

I'm going for it.

"What?"

He replied innocently.
