It All Started Like This... (Eren X Mikasa)

Chapter 5: What Am I Feeling?

-Night-

Eren's POV:

I was at my desk working on my homework. Math is not one of my strengths, but I always somehow managed to barely finish it before I went to sleep. But this time, it was hard. I was getting really distracted by the fact that I said that I would protect her. Not only that but when I was thinking about it, I remembered what happened these past few days.

How did it all start again? Oh yeah... it was because of a book. I was tangled up in this mess because of Mikasa...

Actually, it wasn't really her fault... it was the fact that she was being stalked that was the cause. Uggghhh...

I closed up my math textbook and jumped onto my bed. I was so tired; this was the only time that Mikasa hasn't been at my house since the three days we met.

I fell asleep, waiting for the next day full of surprises to come...

-The Next Morning At School-

Mikasa's POV:

I sat down at my desk and waited for the teacher to come. Eren was already right next to me so I didn't have to worry so much.

For some reason, I felt really safe when I'm next to Eren. I feel like that if the next problem comes, he can kis- NO WAIT!!! What am I thinking about? He's just here to protect me and pretend to be my boyfriend so he can get Jean and Levi off my back. So why am I thinking so much about Eren? I can think about something else...

Like AOG! I just finished reading it and it was so awesome! There's so much gory and blood, but it's still pretty cool. I have to thank Eren for letting me... Shoot!

I sighed and put my head down. It's only been four days since we met each other and I can't stop thinking about Eren. I've been talking to him, asking him for a lot of things, and he helped me. But it was something more than that. It felt like that by pretending to be his boyfriend, that I was starting to like him... WHICH CAN'T BE TRUE!!!

I know he's just my pretend boyfriend, but I couldn't possibly like him like that...

Eren's POV:

The teacher came in slowly and slumped over. She looked like she had been through a lot. She sat down at the desk and gulped down her coffee all in one go. She sighed and shuffled through her papers.

"Class, so sorry for looking like this. I was dealing with a lot of paperwork and preparations tonight and didn't get much sleep... ZZZzzz..." She fell asleep while sitting which made a few of us laugh. I got up and nudged her a little bit to remind her that a class was still going. She stood straight up and then collapsed onto me. I managed to bring her up and sit her back down.

"Zzz... Eren... Zzzz... Open... the... door...ZZZzzz" She told me while trying to fight the sleep. I did as she asked and opened the door. A guy who was just a bit taller than me was at the door. I took a closer look at him. He looked familiar but I don't know where. He came in and waited for the teacher to wake up, which she did miraculously after a few seconds.
