WRITTEN PORTION UNDER THE FIRST IMAGE!!!

You would be lying if you said that you weren’t nervous. I mean, how could you not be? Connie’s friends were coming to help you settle in, and you hadn’t even asked them yourself. Not wanting them to feel forced, you told Connie that it was fine, but he insisted that they didn’t mind at all.

So here you were, in the middle of your empty dorm, waiting for them to arrive.

Your nerves seemed to settle down once you heard a set of places behind the front door, steadily getting closer.

“No, because I said that this was the building! Didn’t I, Ymir?”

“Is ‘yes’ the answer you wanna hear?”

“Duh.”

“Then no.”

You silently laughed to yourself as you overheard their banter outside, suddenly not feeling nervous at all. If anything, you were more excited to meet them more than ever.

A few seconds pass when you heard three knocks. “Come in!” you yell, trying to occupy yourself with anything so it wouldn’t look like you were just standing there the whole time.

The white door opens right after, revealing Connie and two girls by his side, one with short hair, and the other wearing a high ponytail.

The ladder looks in awe at the roomy space, walking in without any hesitation whatsoever. “Woah, this place is better than ours! Right, Mikasa?!” she exclaims, turning to the girl on the other end of Connie.

Mikasa, you presume, takes a quick look around herself, nodding her head in agreement. “Yeah, it’s bigger.”

“That makes no sense though!” the brunette said, stepping away from the kitchen to come face to face with you. You would be lying if you said it hadn’t freaked you out a bit, anyone would be, but she wasn’t as intimidating as she seemed to be. “It’s only you living here, right?”

“Yeah! I didn’t think anyone would want a new roommate so far in the year.” you explain, surprised at how easy she was to talk to.

“Sasha, maybe you should introduce yourself before invading someone’s personal space.” another voice speaks from the front door, the fourth party walking until she’s standing next to Sasha. “I’m Ymir.” she smiles, “This is Sasha,” the girl next to her waves, offering a warm smile. “And that’s Mikasa.”

At this point you think they’re too good to be true. There weren’t many kind people back at the university you used to attend, so it was a relief that Connie’s friends were so welcoming.

“Nice to meet you guys! I’m Y/n.” you beam, before noticing the ongoing commotion going on at the other end of the semi- opened door.

“They’re still out there?” Connie mumbles under his breath. “Guys, come in! You wanna get started or not?” he calls from where the rest of you stood.

They went on for a couple of seconds after that, the door opening fully to reveal two men with rather long hair.

Why hadn’t Connie introduced you to them sooner?

“Sorry, just Eren being a dumbass.” he grumbles, walking in nonchalantly with a smile on his face as he feels the man behind him get angrier.

“I’m the dumbass? You’re 19 and you still don’t know how to read a map!” he counter attacks, coming into full view and hot on the other’s trail.

“Only the paper ones!”

They hadn’t said much, but the small exchange of words made you giggle, and sent Sasha and Connie into a fit of laughter. You guessed Mikasa and Ymir were used to this, as they were able to bring their laughs to a minimum.

The sudden laughter made the two looking at each other face the rest of you instead, cheeks flushed with embarrassment when they realized that you were laughing as well.

Disregarding the laughs of those next to you, the man who had his hair brushed back turns his back to the man he was just arguing with, giving you his full attention. “Sorry about that. I’m Jean.”

You have almost no time to introduce yourself, the other, who’s hair was fairly longer, takes long strides until he’s in front of Jean, shoving him a bit in the process. “Shut up. I’m Eren.” he says, the smile he sent your way warming your heart differently then the way Ymir’s or Sasha’s did.

You don’t let your eyes linger too long, not wanting to give off the wrong impression only seconds after meeting them. “Nice to meet you guys! I’m Y/n.”

Just when you thought that this was everyone, another set of footsteps could be heard in the hall.

“Thanks for leaving the parking to me, guys.” A voice calls out in a sarcastic tone.

The door is opened by a fairly tall blonde, dressed in a simple crewneck and jeans. As soon as he stepped in, the two of you made eye contact, making your heart skip a hundred beats. The sound of his voice and the smile he sent you afterwards was almost enough for you to fall for him on the spot.

Why were all of Connie’s friends so attractive?

“That’s what you get for changing your mind last minute.” Connie says, earning a slap from Ymir.

“We should’ve left it to you.” she retorts, turning back to face you. “That’s Armin. He’s not an idiot like Jean or Eren.” she says, smiling while the two boys tried their best to defended themselves.

While they did that, Connie took a quick look around the room, realizing that everyone’s here and has been introduced, so they could finally get to work (he was only rushing because he’s been waiting for a game to arrive in the mail).

“ ‘Kay Y/n, show us to your car so we can get started. I don’t want anyone stealing my game!” he exclaims, throwing his arm around your shoulder dramatically.

Ymir scoffs as the eight of you finally make your way out the door. “Everyone has had that game for months now, I think you’re good.”

“It’s not my fault I had to save up!”

As the two of them continued to bicker, you couldn’t help but study Eren’s features as you walked down the hall. His face looked almost perfectly structured and his hair was pulled back messily, not enough to keep stray strands from falling onto the front of his face.

Pretty, you thought. You must’ve gotten lost in your train of thoughts, since he was now staring back at you, catching you in the act. He didn’t say anything though, giving you the same warm smile he did a few minutes ago, looking away when the elevator doors opened.

okay armin making a move 😫‼️
