It was another weekend where your older brother’s best friend, Eren Jaeger decided to crash at your house. You hated that Jean never gives a forewarning as to when Eren does decide to show up. His defense is ‘He just shows up whenever! He’s practically family!’

You don’t like saying that you have a crush on Eren. You don’t. He’s your brother’s best friend and he’s practically a player! But you can’t deny you’ve always felt a bit extra shy around him when he comes around.

You actively avoid meeting him, why? You’re not too sure. Maybe for one, Jean never gives you a warning so every time Eren does show up, you look like a mess. And two, he makes you nervous.

You’ve had a bit of an infatuation with Eren since Jean first brought him over for a hangout. You’re two years younger so they always shut you out but you still felt some lingering attraction towards the green eyed brunette.

It’s only Eren that you get nervous with though. While you’re shy with the rest of the football team that comes over constantly, you don’t get nervous. You’re able to walk down to the kitchen and give them a casual greeting unlike with Eren where you look wide eyed and run back to your room and wait till the coast is clear.

And unfortunately, tonight was one of those nights. You waited till it was midnight before you crept downstairs in your tank top and tiny shorts to grab a glass of water until you heard a familiar voice already there.

“Oh hey,” Eren greeted casually, totally shirtless as he sat by the kitchen counter, scrolling on his phone. “What’re you doing here this late?”
