《20 days (Eremika)》~What is love?~

Isabel's POV

For only a brief moment I immediately started doubting that terrible aching feeling in my chest. That feeling that I shouldn't even be feeling in the first place. Why was I feeling all of this now? Where did all these emotions come from? I know I'm playful and childish at times but falling for Eren Yeager...Where did that come from?

I knew I had a small crush on him but I didn't want to believe it, I doubted those feelings. I thought they was fake.

But in reality when he left me the day I was helping him get revenge on Mikasa and left me alone I've never been so abandoned before.

I dressed up not just for Mikasa to notice us but because I actually tried to impress him.

It worked to. He liked my outfit and I played a bit with him while rubbing my chest alongside his arms. He enjoyed it. But while I checked on him to see if he was coming back I saw him embracing Mikasa so tightly.

Then forgetting me he allowed Mikasa on his back and the two left.

My cheeks burned with jealousy and I couldn't help but feel like I've wasted my time.

Instead of going in the bathroom to scream like a mental person I just decided to head back to my seat on the bleachers. I took my phone out as I watched the game intensively unfold before my eyes. Reiner had thrown the football towards Bertholdt who was able to push pass three tall bodybuilders which I'm amazed he didn't even fall down. He managed to get as far as he could and probably intended to.

Isabel: Hey Eren wanna hang tomorrow?

I decided if I asked Eren out and if I really did want to impress him then I would consider my feelings for him but if he doesn't interest me then I don't know what the heck I was feeling.

A few minutes later he still hasn't replied and I don't intend for him to respond right away since he was with Mikasa.

"Sup" I heard a familiar seductive voice and saw Jean sitting next to me.

"Oh hey wassup?" I asked not really knowing why he was next to me.

"Saw Eren with you earlier, he seems to have ditched you" Jean concluded. "I know, and Mikasa left you I see" I remarked. He nodded. "I see you have a thing for Eren" Jean says eyeing me. I avert my gaze from him to the game feeling my cheeks heat up a bit.

"I guess so, but it's not like he cares he's to oblivious to it"I responded. I sighed opening my phone and failed to see a text back on my display screen.

I turned it off and put it between my legs. "But you do like him right?" He asked eager to know my answer.

I was actually contemplating right then and there whether or not I did like him or not.

How would I know if I do?

Was feeling jealous of Mikasa the first step? Love is confusing.

An hour later after the game has officially ended with our school dominating the opposing team I was on my way home. Levi was waiting for me in his his car patiently as he played tongue with Petra.

I knocked on the window to let them know I was there. He unlocked the door and I got in.

"Hey big bro I got a question" I say when he starts driving as I looked over my phone seeing that Eren has responded.

Eren: uh sure when?

Isabel: 9:30 at the beach

The beach was the only place I could really think of but it would be a good opportunity to show him the rest of my body.

"What is love?" I decided to ask.

He stayed quiet for a while but until we got to red light he turned around and gazed at me.

"That feeling you get when you know you've found the right person for you" he briefly explained.

He dragged his fingers under Petra's chin before pulling her in for a nice tender kiss.

Both was oblivious to the fact it was green light causing the car behind us to honk their horn. "Fucking retards" Levi retorted under his breath before speeding off to the house.

"Your going to fast Levi" I say watching out for any cops.

"I'm not speeding...I'm accelerating" he corrected me. I just stayed quiet not bothering to tell him that both words meant the same thing.

We finally pulled up to the house. Levi and Petra immediately went up to his room not bothering to make dinner.

I sighed going up to my own room and decided to finish up some homework.

After homework I cooked myself a cup of soup, took a shower and went to sleep.

The next morning

The next morning came quick like lightening. I was already up taking a shower. I had took a nice warm shower using my cherry rose blossom body wash, brushed my teeth and thrust a piece of gum in my mouth after eating a healthy breakfast, put on my daily moisturizer, flat ironed my hair and put on my red bikini with a orange see-through shirt, white shorts that stop at my small thighs and golden sandals that showed my blue colored toenails.

I stumbled downstairs almost falling over but I didn't care right now I was to excited to see Eren.

Whether these feelings are true or not I just want to see him.

"Bye Levi" I waved to my shirtless brother who was just waking up with Petra around him.

"Where you going?" He asked while rubbing the tiredness out his eyes.

"Outside" I quickly replied and closed the door.

I made sure I had enough money to buy food even though men are expected to pay for everything.

The beach wasn't that far from my house just across the K-bridge and there I was. After crossing the bridge I scanned the beach area and no sign of Eren yet. Guess I was early.

I grabbed a beach chair and put it in the shade under the bridge since the sun was scorching my neck.

I took a seat and pulled my phone out to see if he was on his way.

Isabel: Hey, you on your way?

It was 9:25 so I figured I ask. Luckily he responded quickly.

Eren: yes me and the rest is on our way :) see you there

WHAT! The others are coming???

If anything that means Mikasa would be tagging along as well. It was just suppose to be me and him together, alone on the beach and he thinks I'm having some sort of party!?

I felt my blood boil and my veins throbbing.

But I had to keep my temperature I mean hey at least I'd be with Eren half the time and he got to see me.

"Isaaaaabellll" someone called out my name and I saw Eren who decided to tag along Armin, Mikasa, Connie, Sasha, Jean, Reiner, Annie, Bertholdt, Christa, Ymir, Mina and some lady that looked like she was in her late forties.

If I knew this was going to be some get together I would of brought Levi and Petra!

"Heyy" Connie greeted while putting an arm around me. "Uh hey" I waved in agitation trying to not make it seem like I was already pissed.

"Alright kids go play" The older lady said. "Uh who's that and why is dressed in a lifeguard outfit?" I told Eren.

"Oh that's my mom she decided to tag along because it was hot in the house and because she's been dying to try that outfit out" he says.

"Eren it was only suppose to be just you and me" I complained.

"Sorry I asked them before and they said no but once our A.C broke they both agreed while my dad went to work and Mikasa decided we bring the rest of our friends for a small party" He explained.

I sighed. Well at least he had a good reason as to why.

"Whatever glad you can make it though" I gave a fake smile. "Yeah" he replied.

"Eren me and Annie are going to go change our bathing suits" Mikasa said. He nods and the two girls head to the gift shop that held bathrooms.

I decided this was a perfect chance to get Eren to touch me so I slid some sunscreen from my purse.

"Hey Eren wanna help me apply some sunscreen on my back I can't reach" I said handing him the bottle.

"Sure" he says and he escorts me to my chair.

He turns me on my stomach but before he could open the bottle cap someone shouts his name.

"Hey Eren, Bertholdt your girlfriends want you!" Eren's mom yell out to the two.

"Ugh" I muttered to myself. "Sorry Isabel be right back" he excuses himself and with Bertholdt the two run over to assist the girls.

"Hey mama want me to rub cream on your back?" A sweet tone asked. The girl with black pigtails offer.

"Uh sure" I said handing her the bottle. Although I wanted Eren to do it I just couldn't deny how cute she was when she asked.

But I'm actually glad I said yes to her because her hands worked like magic! Her small hands was so soft and before I knew it I was having a massage.

I almost cried when it ended.

But Armin wanted her help to bury Jean alive so she couldn't help but want to so now I was alone watching everyone play.

Annie was on Bertholdt's neck and Christa was on Ymir's neck and the two had a chicken fight, Sasha and Connie was at the food court, Reiner was with Eren's mom trying to help her impress the cute lifeguard about her age, Armin and Mina was burying Jean, and Mikasa and Eren was building a sandcastle.

Jeez I wasn't really needed when I'm the one who planned to go.

If Eren and I was the only one here we probably be doing lots of things together.

Heh why did I ever think I be alone with him. Of course he would bring Mikasa, I need to stop living in my own fantasy and just get back to acting but even if it was just a play for Eren back in the football stadium, I was glad he enjoyed my touch so why not touch him again!

I stood up and headed over to Eren and Mikasa who was trying to make a deep ring around the castle so they make a small pool there.

"Hey Isabel" Mikasa waved to me greeting my appearance.

"Hey" I said a bit harsh while secretly stabbing daggers at her entire body.

I sat down between them and admired there nicely built castle. "Nice" I whistled.

"Thanks" they both said in unison before bursting into small chuckles. I did a fake one myself.

"Hey Eren" I started while getting a bit closer to him. Him nor Mikasa noticed my little action.

"Yes?" He asked while adding sand to the top layer.

"Can you help me find a bathroom?" I asked squirming a bit while leaning on him. "Sure, keep making the castle Mika" he says and places a kiss on her cheek.

My face heats up but it's nothing compared to what I have instored for him.

He helps me up and I fake a fall like my legs are numb.

"I'll carry you" he insist and picks me up bridal style. "I'll pick her up after all I'm stronger and I know where the bathroom is" Mikasa suddenly says.

"Okay I'll continue making the castle then" Eren says giving me to her.

My heart stops as she starts walking.

"You should be more careful next time Isabel don't wanna get hurt" Mikasa says in a deep cold tone not even sharing a glimpse at me.

I swallowed a hard lump in my throat.

Once we got to the bathroom she put me down. "See you when your out" she waves and heads out the door.

Well that didn't go as planned and I didn't even think about her having man strength.

I opened my phone and saw it was 11:56. I'm just wasting my time here.

There was a slight knock on the door and I got up to answer it seeing Eren.

"Hey you okay?" He asked. I shrugged. "Yeah I guess" I opened the door and closed it behind me.

"Sorry we didn't get to be alone like you planned" he apologized. "It's whatever I'm feeling really unneeded and I'm sure you all don't even realize I'm here so I'll just go" I say.

This was an utter disaster especially if Mikasa is getting in the way.

"Isabel..." He trails off not bothering to stop me. Of course he wouldn't make the effort.

After packing my things I left. No one said anything. No one noticed.

I've always been invisible and I would forever be.
