Happiness I Never Knew I Could Have

Chapter 15 Promised

"Don't play song until told so"

(Armin's P. O. V)
I enter into my 3rd period class which I have with Eren and Mikasa I got there 5 minutes before the bell. So they arrived so we have 4 minutes left to talk.

Armin why didn't you pick up are calls? Eren asked

I left to go do something. I said

What was that you couldn't call for two days even at night you could have called? Mikasa points out

It's alright everything is taken care of. I said

Was it Annie? Mikasa said

No it was my grandparents they wanted me to do something before the store closed. I said

We called and asked if you were their and you were not there, so where were you? Eren asked

It's my business and you don't need to know okay I am fine. I say

IT IS ARE BUSINESS BECAUSE WE HAD TO TELL YOUR GRANDPARENTS THAT YOUR ALRIGHT! WHEN WE DIDN'T KNOW WHERE YOU WERE OR EVEN IF YOU WERE ALRIGHT! Mikasa yelled

I was fine, I made a promise and please trust me I was in no danger at all so please take my word. I was safe and I didn't pick up because of my reasons so please respect them as I would you. I say

Fine but next time pick up. Mikasa said

I will. I said

This has to be a promise. Eren said

I promise. I say

We sat down and began the lesson and for me the class went fast so Mikasa and Eren don't know I have a free period. I walked down the hall looking for a certain blonde hair girl then I saw everyone was in class. I was walking when I heard a melody going from the old piano room ir music room in general. I heard a song I've never heard of but it sound good when I started to hear. I saw Annie was the one who was in the music room playing the song I decided to join it.

When I was six years old I broke my leg
I was running from my brother and his friends
And tasted the sweet perfume of the mountain grass I rolled down
I was younger then, take me back to when I

Found my heart and broke it here
Made friends and lost them through the years
And I've not seen the roaring
fields in so long, I know I've grown
But I can't wait to go home

I'm on my way
Driving at ninety down those country lanes
Singing to "Tiny Dancer"
And I miss the way you make me feel, and it's real
We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill

Fifteen years old and smoking hand-rolled cigarettes
Running from the law through the backfields and getting drunk with my friends
Had my first kiss on a Friday night, I don't reckon that I did it right
But I was younger then, take me back to when

We found weekend jobs, when we got paid
We'd buy cheap spirits and drink them straight
Me and my friends have not thrown up in so long, oh how we've grown
But I can't wait to go home

I'm on my way
Driving at ninety down those country lanes
Singing to "Tiny Dancer"
And I miss the way you make me feel, and it's real
We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill

One friend left to sell clothes
One works down by the coast
One had two kids but lives alone
One's brother overdosed
One's already on his second wife
One's just barely getting by
But these people raised me and I
can't wait to go home

And I'm on my way, I still remember
This old country lanes
When we did not know the answers
And I miss the way you make me feel, it's real
We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill

We got done with the song and he looked at me with a smile I gave a little one back.

How come you sing but not at the karaoke party? Armin asked

Because I've never sang out with many people that I know of and I had no guts to do so. I hummed to some of the songs but never sang infront of people like you or my friends. I say

Well you should sing more often. Armin said

Thanks maybe when I get more guts to actually perform infront of people because it's been 11 years since I sang infront of people. I say

Well your voice is beautiful. Armin says

I slightly blush but then realized, how can he sing. Well why didn't you sing at your party? I asked

I was tired it was late and I like to hear my friends voices. Armin said

Oh well I thought you couldn't sing so I assumed you had a horrible voice. I say

So rude no, I have the best voice around. Armin said a little offended

I laughed inside on his face expression. I looked at the clock and saw it was only 30 minutes left so we went to the library and read some books. Mainly are favorite book series Attack On Titan. I was 12 books ahead of him so he had some catching up to do as I was reading the other books. As much as I told Armin I'll tell him anything that bothers me. But this is just a little excuse it's nothing important to tell him about Burtholt. He's done so much for me I'll let him have this as a brake, yeah just a break. I though to myself about my choice.
