The King Of Cowards And The Queen Of Pain (ArminxAnnie)

6: Armin

~ Armin's P.O.V ~

The next day Annie doesn't say a word to me. The same thing happens until Friday.

She accidentally bumped into me.

Annie looks up at me with an unbreakable hatred in her eyes.

"Get.Out.Of.My.Way" She says.

She shoves me before she practically runs down the hall.

Krista, who was at her locker when Annie shoved me, rushes over to my side.

"Are you okay?" She asks.

"I'm fine" I said.

"Are you sure?" Krista asks.

Ever since we got back together she's either been like this or completely distant.

"Yeah. Can we talk after school?" I ask.

"Of course" She smiled.

We hold hands and walk to Honors English together.

I have all of my classes with her and Ymir.

Sometimes I catch them sneaking glimpses of each other and when they're caught they both begin to blush.

I know that Krista and I dating is just a front so people won't know that Krista is gay.

I should've told Annie that in the email instead of doing what Mikasa told me to.

Once Krista and I enter the classroom all noise ceases to exist.

We sit down in our seats and everyone starts talking again.

A girl with low hanging black pigtails is talking to Ymir. The girl's name is Mina Carolina.

I'm pretty sure that Mina and Annie are very close friends.

Bertholdt and Reiner are talking quietly in the back of the classroom.

I wonder if Reiner and Annie are gonna get back together.

They probably will. They have in years past.

Annie walked in a few minutes later.

When she walked in the room fell silent. She sat in her seat, which is next to mine.

I look over at her and she's looking at me.

I mouth 'Can we talk?'. She shakes her head 'no'.

The conversation ends at that because the teacher walks in.

The lesson goes by deadly slow. By the time the class is over, I'm beyond bored.

I studied this nearly three weeks ago.

I quickly make my way to the Cafeteria.

I get a Chicken burger and a Sprite. I plop my tray down at the Prep table and sit down.

Krista is to my right and the seat to my left is empty.

Mikasa is on top of Eren again. Sasha is having an animated conversation about something with Connie, Jean, and Marco.

Krista and I are the only ones who aren't talking.

Mikasa pries herself off of Eren and looks at Krista and me.

"So. You're dating, again?" She asked.

"Yes. We are, Mikasa" Krista said.

"Have you guys done anything yet?" Eren asked.

"No" I replied.

"That's surprising" Connie laughed.

"Be quiet" Krista snapped.

"Okay, jeesh" Connie backed off.

"Move it!" A familiar voice yelled.

Everyone in the Cafeteria turned in the direction of the noise.

Annie was standing over a fallen junior.

"S-sorry" He stuttered.

"Whatever" She snapped.

She walked out of the Cafeteria right when I stood up to dump.

I dump and leave without saying anything to anyone.

She's leaning against the wall next to the Girls Bathroom.

She's texting someone on her phone. I slowly walk towards her.

She looks up at me and I stop.

"Can we talk?" I ask.
