Eren wake up!
I woke up by my phone buzzing on the nightstand next to me. I opened my eyes slowly, letting out a soft groan as I turned to look at the alarm clock next to my phone.
11:40 AM.
Fuck... I remember having something to do in twenty minutes, but I don’t remember what it was. I blindly reached out and patted the top of the nightstand in look for my phone, pulling it over me and placing it to my ear.
"Eren get up, I've been calling for half an hour! I'm outside of your apartment, open the door dumbass." Armin, my best friend whined in my ear, and I shot up into a sitting position.
"Shit! I'm sorry Arm, I was asleep... I'm coming, just let me brush my teeth." I said, my voice still heavy with sleep as I got up and walked to the bathroom, grabbing my glasses in the process.
After brushing my teeth and pulling my messy brown hair into a ponytail, I ran to the door, opening it to reveal the other male, wearing a baby blue button-up shirt and slightly darker jeans, his hair slightly pushed back with his sunglasses.
"Eren! I thought you were dead. Mikasa is waiting for us. Get dressed!" He said a slight shock is in his blue eyes as he looked over what I was wearing. I looked down at myself, letting out a soft laugh at the bigger-sized shirt I wore. "Fine. Come in, and please make me a coffee-"
"With twelve sugar, I know." Armin continued, walking past me and into my small apartment, stopping to pet my cat before entering the kitchen.
We were fresh out of college, and because it was the first day of summer break, it was the last day we will see most of our friends. Some left to work abroad, some moving somewhere else. But we did promise we will stay in contact and keep meeting in the future.
After ten minutes I walked back to Armin, wearing a green t-shirt and one of my favorite torn jeans, the ponytail on my head a little neater than before and my phone in my hand. "I'm ready Arm." I said softly, walking to the kitchen and leaning on the counter, grabbing the big cup of coffee from him and sipping it happily, while my other hand petted the white cat next to me, whose eyes were like mine, one green, and the other brown. "Good morning to you too Capt'." I said softly, smiling slightly.
The cat, named Captain, meowed softly, standing on the countertop next to me and rubbing my arm.
Armin laughed softly, shaking his head and placing his cup in the sink once he finished his tea. "Okay, Eren, we really need to go." He said, taking the cup from my hands before pulling me to the door. "Bye Captain, Eren will be back in a few hours." He said to the cat as he pushed me out the door and closed it once we were out, locking it behind us and pulling me to the elevator, getting in with me as he handed me back the keys.
"Thanks, Armin. I would have missed it if you didn’t call." I admitted, laughing slightly, until the elevator came to a stop, but not where we needed it to.
An older man walked in, wearing a grey suit, his blond hair in a weird undercut style and shining in the elevator lights from the gel.
He gave us a nod and we nodded back, keeping quiet as we drove down to the main floor of the apartment building. We walked out of the elevator once it came to a stop again, and the man turned to us with a big smile, showing perfect whites. "Have a good day." He said, nodding again before walking to a black, shiny BMW that parked in the shade.
I looked at Armin, who was a blushing mess next to me and hit him in the shoulder. "Someone has his eyes on my neighbor." I teased, walking with him to his blue car, getting in the passenger seat, and buckling up.
"Shut up Eren..." He blushed, looking down at the wheel before starting the car, driving to our friend's club, which closed so we could celebrate alone.
