《Lost time (eremika au)》Arcade (21)

———Eren POV———
"That's fucking sick!" Jean and Connie said at the same time while both of them intensely stared at my arm
"when did you get it?" Connie asked while standing at full height
I went to grab my bag from the floor "Yesterday, with Mika she also got a tattoo "
Connie was looking at his phone while I was talking and after I said 'Mika also got a tattoo' he nodded and looked at me but I think when he comprehended the words that left my mouth he did a double take.
"Pardon me?" he blinked at me
I laughed from his reaction "what bro?"
Jean looked at me with wide eyes "Mikasa has a tattoo?!"
Connie just looked confused but not as confused as Jean. "Yeah" I shrugged "she has three now"
"I thought she only had one before" Connie said while grabbing his water bottle off his bedside table
Grabbing my hat I walked towards the door "she has three" I said while holding up three fingers.
Jean walked towards me and patted my shoulder "where?"
I look at the ground and felt heat rush to my face. What am I supposed to say. 'Oh she has one tattoo in between her boobs' to be honest I don't have a problem saying that but if I have to say it to Jean then...
"I forget" I said nonchalantly
——————————
"Armin pleaseee" I begged while closing my textbook.
We've been studying in this damn library for hours. Literally. I've been bored out of my mind since we got here.
He shook his head while closing his binder "Why the Arcade?"
"Because it's fUn"
He grinned at me "Can I invite someone?"
I nodded my head 'yes' while grabbing the juice box off the table.
Armin grabbed his phone and dialled a number, he gave me one thumbs up while it rang "Hello?" He asked
"Armin?" The faint voice from the other line answered but I couldn't tell who it was
A bunch of 'maybes' and 'yes' was said from Armin's part before he ended the call and looked at me again with a small smile on his face "Mikasa is coming"
I nodded in response while putting the books in my backpack "Do we need to go get her or are we meeting her there?" I asked seeing how we should just all go together instead of separately.

"Yeah, if that's ok with you?" He raised an eyebrow at me
I nodded 'yes' while we walked towards the elevator.
—————-
"Mikasa you look fine" I said exhausted
We got to Mikasa's dorm a good half an hour ago and she said she would be ready in two minutes. She was not fucking ready.
"You are just saying that Eren!" She yelled at me
I stood up and grabbed a shirt that was laying on her bed "how about this"
Armin already fucking left me to deal with her and he said and I quote 'I don't feel like getting beaten up so I'm going to wait in the car' He left me to the wolves.
She turned her head towards me "That's so fucking ugly Eren" she deadpanned
It's a fucking plain black top.
I walked towards her and shoved it into her arms "just try it on Mika, we are literally going to an arcade."
She rolled her eyes and went to the closet where she's been changing for the past half an hour. She walked out and held her arms up to her stomach "it's cropped" she pointed out
I raised a eyebrow at her "so?"
"I don't like cropped things right now" she simply stated while going back to the closet and rummaging through her jackets "Got it!" She said while pulling out a flannel and a zip up hoodie
"Great!" I said sarcastically "Can we go now?"
She put on the flannel and jacket "yup"
————-
We parked outside the old Arcade, it was so fucking old the sign was missing the letter 'r' "Here we are?" I grimaced
I turned my head to look at Armin who was already looking at me and mikasa back and fourth, "Let's go!" He finally said while opening the passenger door fast and practically running to the door.
I looked at the mirror and saw that Mikasa was just looking at the arcade with furrowed eyebrows "what?" I questioned
She shrugged while making quick eye contact and stepping out of the car "Are you ready to get shit on?" She said with a smirk and opening the door for me
Walking through we went to the counter and waited for the worker "Are you ready to get your ass beat Ackerman?"
Both Mikasa and I are very how do you say this. Competitive people meaning that we don't like to lose and if we do lose then you bet your ass we will put up a fight. This should be fun

The worker finally came and asked us how many token we wanted. "How many tokens do you want?" I asked facing Mikasa
She shrugged "I only have ten dollars so let me get" she looked up at the board to see what you can get with ten dollars "ten tokens"
I looked at her with an emotionless face "I asked how many token do you want." She raised an eyebrow at me "Not how much money you have" I pointed at her
"No Eren it's fin-" I cut her off, turning back to the worker
"Can I get 20 tokens for her and 20 tokens for me please?" I asked while completely ignoring Mikasa
Protests
I thanked the worker and turned to a Mikasa who was shyly smiling at me. I grabbed her hand and placed the tokens "Here"
"Thank you" she said politely
———————-
Fuck that shit. She's not fucking polite.
"FUCK OFF!" I yelled while slamming on the wheel of the car game Mikasa and I were playing
"YOU SUCK ASSS" She yelled back at me while shooting her arms up in victory.
I turned to her with a glare "One more"
She shook her head while grinning "Nope. I won. All the games."
Rolling my eyes I challenged her "One more and the loser has to do a dare for the winner. Also you did not Win all the games."
She looked at me momentarily before responding "Bet" she held out her hand ready for me to shake.
After shaking her hand my eyes scanned the arcade looking for what we haven't already played. We have been here for way longer than necessary and in total we have bought 70 tokens. Yeah she said she will pay me back.
Eventually.
"That one!" She suddenly yelled and pointed towards a shooting game, Grabbing my hand she dragged me to the game and looked like a five year old in a candy store.
Shaking my head I looked at the basic zombie game that everyone plays at least once in their lives "are you sure?" I questioned
She grinned at me "What? You scared that you'll get your ass beat again"
I gave her a sarcastic smile and put the last of our tokens in the machine, Looking down at our interlocked hands I cleared my throat to get her attention, she looked at me with confusion written all over her face until I looked down again and which she realized she never let go of my hand.
Her face beamed red with embarrassment while she let go of my hand "sorry" she muttered
I shrugged not really caring if she did or didn't hold my hand "it's fine"
We both picked up our 'guns' and started the game.
1-0
1-2
3-3 "FUCK" we both yelled at the same time after the game ended and we ended in a tie.
We turned towards each other both of us glaring "This is your fault!" We yelled at the same time again
"How is it my fault!" We yelled in sync again
Holy fuck. This is creepy
"Stop copying me!" Mikasa yelled while slamming the gun back to its spot "you couldn't have just I don't know LET ME WIN?" She argued
I blinked at her "You couldn't have tried not being so fucking try hard Mikasa!"
"Was not!"
" was to!"
"Was not!"
"Um guys?"
We both turned to the new voice and was met with an Armin covered with a blanket and in hand was random toys,stickers, stuffys and candy. Where the fuck did he go?
Mikasa laughed while looking at our childhood best friend "what the hell happened Armin?!"
He gave her a playful glare "you guys let me loose in a arcade!"
Me and mikasa both looked at each other and started laughing our asses off even more "Armin how much did you spend here?" I asked while leaning on Mikasa
He mumbled a number but I couldn't even hear it.
"Huh?" Mikasa asked
"90 dollars..." he guiltily said
I looked over to Mikasa with wide eyes and her doing the same, leaning to her ear so armin couldn't hear I whispered "Hes crazy"
She smiled and nodded.
"Let's go Mikasa is buying us dinner!" I cheered while slinging both arms over Armins and Mikasa's shoulders
"What?! I am not buying dinner for you" she crossed her arms
"Are to"
"Are not"
"I'll pay! Just stop fighting" Armin said while going to the passenger seat
"Ok"
"Ok"
Not going to lie these past few days have been really fucking fun, it's been fun hanging out with Mikasa again like old times and fighting over stupid shit like it's nothing.
Still convinced she cheated at the racing game though.

Loremaster of the Amaranthine lands
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Meet Regis, your morally grey, know more than most(but surely not all of it) guy. After willingly ending up in another world that has no sunshine and rainbows left to hand out, Regis must keep his wits sharp and his bladestaff sharper if he wants to get out of the refugee filled and monster besieged port-city of Hunor. Follow his ragtag group of outlanders as they waddle through the tense situation brought on by the shortage of supplies and overabundance of enemies in the war-torn kingdonf of Ecragurne. After a considerable amount of nagging by a few precious friends, I chose to share this (once complete and utter mess) book project with you as a participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge. As I am not a native English speaker or professional writer, you can expect a few grammar issues along the way despite my best efforts to clean up my writing. Hence, I wellcome any comments with the intent of helping me getting better (within reasons of course).

8 463Quantum Worlds (A LitRPG dark fantasy)
Find the missing VIP in an illegal game world. Kill the monsters. Return home for the paycheck. Decorated Marine commander, Damon Williams, never thought his latest mission would take place in a full-immersion world fighting monsters… but when a high-value VIP disappears after being stealthily transported to a banned MMORPG, he's their only hope. Damon must lead a group of rescuers into an unforgiving world infested with terrifying monsters and worse. Pain is real. Death is permanent. He and his crew must adapt quickly, trust each other, and fight to survive. And if all that's not bad enough, they'll also have to race against time to avoid the realm’s disintegration and mutation effects. Quantum Worlds features race and class designations, unique creatures, dungeon crawling, level progression and Easter eggs that reference video games and pop culture. This a dark fantasy, but it also has sprinklings of humor throughout. It is a multi-cast, multi-pov story. In many ways, it is a melding of one of my favorite novels, “The Stand”, with my favourite genre, LitRPG. I don’t espouse to be anywhere near Stephen King, but I would like to think that I have succeeded in many areas here (you’ll be the judge of that). So, this thriller-style story has a lot of build-up and lots of drama. When it hits the 100-page mark, it starts to take off with some intense action and fight scenes (although there are battles long before that). Nothing comes easy for this group of rescuers. And the dangers are very real. This saga is already over 100 chapters with more to come. I hope you enjoy it and look forward to your reviews, comments, and feedback. Thanks. Chapters are uploaded every day at noon ET. Please do not repost this work anywhere without my written permission. Quantum Worlds is a participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge.
8 113Crossroads
On the continent of Khaan, a peculiar boy escapes from his hidden village to find a land to call home. Suppressed ambitions are unveiled as a head-strong princess defies the emperor. New kingdoms expand as the old decay. This is a story of those who lived in the times of change. Dear Reader, Thank you for stopping by! This is my first attempt at writing something of more substantial length and would be incredibly grateful to receive feedback and advice. The plan is to post at least a chapter a week and more if I find time. Also, in order to not disappoint any expectations; the story plays in a fictional world reminiscent of the real world 17th to 19th century with some supernatural elements, but no obvious magic or game-like system.
