《20 days (Eremika)》~The tides turned~

Eren's POV
I was done with Mikasa.
Honestly if she loved me she would at least try to spend time with me rather then going places 24/7 like I don't freaking exist. I try to show her how much I love her and how she filled my heart with something I thought I never got to feel and that was love.
But now she was acting like a total bitch. Heck she's a totally different person now!
If she truly loved me...She would be running out my house and making her way to me to stop me from trying to end our relationship.
She wasn't doing that.
She was going to really let this happen. It's like I was trash to her and she didn't need me. I was a used piece of bubble wrap.
I knocked on the door softly doubting the fact that anyone heard but surprisingly the door opened to reveal Armin's grandpa.
"Hey pops mind if I stay here overnight? Or well a couple of days?" I asked while meeting the blind gaze of his grandpa.
"Sure your always wanted son, come in" he welcomes while opening the door and I gradually walk in, thanking him.
"Armin is in his room like always" his grandpa points out as I head to his room upstairs and make way inside.
He was reading a book peacefully which meant he was somewhat mad or pissed.
"What's up?" I asked to clarify that I was in his room. His eyes flew to mine, sharp and cold. Wow he was really pissed.
"What happened? What's wrong?" I asked while sitting beside him on the bed.
He says nothing but instead closes the book and leaves it beside his counter. "Armin?" I questioned while meeting his tempted gaze like he's holding back something that's making him hurt inside.
"It's nothing!" He says suddenly filled with surprise and smiles genuinely. His fake happiness hides his anger really good. I try to read him, figure him out but he says nothing and gives me a small chuckle. "So what brought you over?" He asked changing the subject.
The memory of the small fight came flooding back into my mind and I couldn't help but cringe at the thought. "Mikasa" I say through gritted teeth and he already gets the hint.
"Are you two over or something?" He asked a bit worried but I shrugged and ran a hand through my cold, messy brown hair. "I don't even know, I guess we are I mean...She acts like I don't even exist" I muttered while averting my gaze from Armin to my lap.
"She's a completely different person" I stated. "Psh go figure, at first she was useless and begging for mercy to see the world with someone she thought was her friend and in returned used you as a chance to be free" Armin slightly chuckled. "She used you hard"
"I've noticed" I mumbled unsure if he heard me or not.
"Well then tell her" he says. "I did, well sort of but it was like a break up" I told while sighing.

"Then make her Jealous, make her realize the guy she's been screwing around with, make her want you back" Armin suggested.
"Jealousy? Armin she's gonna be-" "Eren! She's been making you crazy Jealous by spending time with her friends, not talking to you and mercilessly holding hands with guys! You need this, seeing her Jealous would make you all better, trust me" Armin assures me. I let out a long sigh.
"Fine" I groaned while laying back. "But how do I make her jealous?" I asked.
His face lights up like he's happy I'm finally asking for his advice.
"Glad you ask" he gives me a sly grin.
And from there for the rest of the night we continue to talk about ways to make her jealous. We've actually come up with decent ideas but some was to violent but that was because I wanted to see her so Jealous she would end up crying for me. But Armin thought I was being a homicide so we ended up sticking with the original classy ones.
*****
The next morning was a Friday and what can I say?
Hell yeah it's finally Friday no more crappy, un useful homework!
I loved Fridays because it was the day before the weekend and school always seemed to be more alive at this part of the week.
But now, I was actually dreading to go to school.
After talking about what I should do to make Mikasa Jealous it actually got my intestines in a bundle and questions flowing through my head.
What if I didn't do some of the tricks right?
What if I embarrass myself in front of Mikasa?
What if the girl I'm using to make Mikasa thinks I'm awkward and walks away??
So many what ifs but I try to cool down once Armin gave me a somewhat, hopeful inspiring speech.
But as soon as I see the school in my view I swear I almost pissed myself a bit.
"Jeez are you really that scared?" Armin asked as we walked up the steps of the school.
I nodded to scared to say something.
"You act like you just murdered someone, but chill you make several girls jealous when you was with Mikasa, just pretend you never knew Mikasa before" Armin says preparing me.
That actually made me chill a bit. I never noticed how tense I was till I dropped my shoulders. That felt good.
"Let's do this!" Armin says with so much enthusiasm before kicking the door open but immediately was in pain and held his foot while trying to balance on his other leg by jumping around.
"Armin why did you kick a door your suppose to pull?" I asked while trying to contain my laughter.
"I was in the moment I thought it would open!" He exclaimed while groaning.
I just shook my head and walked inside while putting on a nice smile, like nothing ever happened to me.
Some girls caught my appearance and waved to me, even winked which was a good start so far.
I could see Mikasa in a far corner talking with Jean and Reiner.

If I wanted to make her Jealous I had to pretend what happened between us really didn't happen. I took a few deep breathes but was startled when I heard Reiner call me over.
"Hey Reiner" I greeted with a wave and small smile. Mikasa glared at me but all I did was cast her a small smile before turning to the two guys.
"So wassup?" I asked while crossing my arms.
"Are you coming to the football game after school today?" Reiner asked while playing with the football by throwing it up and catching it.
"Will the others be there?" I asked trying to see if they would bring up Mikasa.
"Yeah and hey do you mind if Mikasa sits with me?" Jean asked. "We have things to talk about"
I'm sure you do
"Sure, fine by me, I'll see if I can make it" I said not affected by the fact that Jean and Mikasa would be together.
I walk off and head to class, I really want to see Mikasa's face, what it might look like right now but I fight the urge to not turn around.
The bell rings for class and I go ahead and take my seat as soon as I entered, watching as my friends burst inside all talking about how there going to beat there opposing team in the football match this afternoon.
"Hey Eren you coming to the game?" Bertholdt asked while in his jersey. His green jacket with white sleeves and a blue and white wing. Yep we was team "wings of freedom". Our school was almost the undefeated team in the whole district but then the MPs came and took our championship name.
"Hell yeah, I wouldn't miss it for the world" I state while slapping his hand when he wanted a high five.
"It's cool your coming, is Mika?" He asked while taking his seat.
"Yep, she'll be with Jean though" I say and he cast me a confused look.
"Dude, why did you say that with so much excitement?" He asked, arching a brow at me.
"Something happened between me and Mikasa, we sorta broke up and Armin wanted to test if she really loves me and that's to make her Jealous so now I have to find a girl to go with and make her come back to me" I explained.
"Wow that's messed up but really appealing, I think I have a girl that may accept you, she's pretty, is a good actor and wouldn't mind pretending to be your girlfriend" Bertholdt appeals
"Woah Bertholdt I'm not desperate for a girl I just want to make Mika Jealous" I remarked.
"Oh well she can help you with that then" he says while scratching his head.
"Cool who is it?"
"Isabel"
I almost choked on my oxygen.
"ISABEL??" I yelled out so loud it had the whole class looking at us.
Bertholdt rolled his eyes. "Just meet me during sixth period before I leave for the game" he instructs before the bell rung and class begun.
I had snuck a peek over at Mikasa who had her head turned to me.
Hm she was probably wondering about my outburst of Isabel.
And so the Jealousy begins.
****
Today has been a bit overwhelming. I was full of relief and couldn't help but enjoy how today went.
In all my classes I was able to chat to guys and girls without bringing Mikasa up or being Jealous by her when she was around Jean.
The time I kind of ticked her off was when this girl was talking to me and kissed my cheek as a farewell till she saw me next time. Mikasa was so red she was like a ticking time bomb. But I ignored her and left to my next period and I heard her growl as a reply. It's like she was trying to get my attention but I didn't hear her.
So now I was in sixth period waiting for the right time to get out so that I could meet up with Isabel and Bertholdt.
When it was 2:31 I got my request granted for going to the bathroom and headed down the few halls it took before I saw Bertholdt and Isabel patiently waiting for me on the lockers. How long was they waiting?
"I'm here" I say in a low whisper making them avert there gazes to me.
"Hey it's bout time, this is Isabel like I said" he greets her to me.
Yeah I know who she is. But the thing is. She's Levi's sister.
"Aren't you related to...?" "Yeah you could say, I'm his adoptive sister" she says with a small, cheery smile.
"So what is my objective?" She asked while looking at both Bertholdt and me.
"You'll be going to the game after school with Eren, to help him make Mikasa Jealous" Bertholdt clarifies.
"Woah isn't Mikasa the new girl, I don't want to make a bad impression on her" Isabel says starting to contemplate on whether she should do this or not.
"Psh you won't get on her bad side she's all good and what not, she'll just want Eren more and start to crave" Bertholdt tells.
"Okay, want me to sexy it up?" Isabel asked politely. Wow she was cute.
"Not to much, just touch him in ways any girl would do to make a guy there's" Bertholdt replies.
"Okay then, I know just what to do!" She exclaims while clapping her hands together. "Just get me time to freshen up okay? Got to look my best" she says before turning around and glaring at me. "Don't be late Eren" she says before walking off and disappearing from my sight.
I felt my cheeks heat up a bit.
"Hey!" Bertholdt yells into my ear making me jump.
"Don't fall for the girl that suppose to help you" he says before ruffling my hair and leaving off to class.
I rolled my eyes.
In a few more minutes Mikasa would understand pure Jealousy.
