the entire walk back was silent between the two of us. we finally found mikasa and armin, but i sensed they caught on to our awkward tension.
they didn't say a word about it. instead we got somewhat scolded by armin about our disappearance, and continued our walk back to home-base.
what eren said earlier- it's not like that thought hasn't crossed my mind at some point. i knew all along what situation we would get ourselves into if we ever become a couple.
i was actually somewhat offended he thought i wasn't thorough.
if i knew it wouldn't work out, i wouldn't have kissed mikasa that night in my room- i wouldn't have agreed to date her- i wouldn't have even agreed to be her friend if we're talking long-term.
but then again..
"y/n, you ok?" a voice asks, making me jump out of my thoughts. i blink a bit at the person, fully processing what they had asked.
"hm? oh, i'm fine, i'm fine."
i didn't want to worry mikasa with all of this, especially when she's probably thought of it herself. mikasa is definitely the type of person to think every situation through, especially a relationship.
we're gonna be ok.
as long as we have each other, that's all that matters.
time skip
by the time we all arrived back to our rooms, i was so tired i basically fell on my bed, barely awake enough to put the blanket over my body.
my face pressed against the somewhat comfy pillow, my eyes slowly shutting, preparing myself for a good nights' sleep.
that is, until a slight knock on my door startled me.
"hey, y/n? it's mikasa."
letting out a tired yawn, i crawl out of bed and make my way towards the door, letting mikasa inside.
i make my way back to my bed, not bothering to say a word to her, though i wanted to.
"you that tired?" she reply's to my lazy fit, sitting near the foot of my mattress.
"hey, can i ask you something?"
i ruffled through the sheets, getting a small glimpse of her through the lighting of the lamp placed on my desk.
"go for it."
it seemed as if she almost immediately replied after i agreed to her offer.
"why did you and eren leave earlier?"
she took a pause, signaling it was my turn to somehow respond to that. having to deal with an argument at this second was something i did want to do, but lying to mikasa.. i would just feel guilty.
