-Later That Night-
                          
Eren was laying on his back on his bed. He had his hands laying on his stomach as he stared up at the ceiling. As he laid there, he couldn't help but to let his mind wander over everything that had happened that day. He sighed and shook his head.
                          
He heard his phone vibrate over on the table beside him and huffed. Rolling over, he stretched his arm out and grabbed it. He unlocked this screen and went to the message.
                          
We need to talk. Now.
                          
-Armin
                          
Eren rose an eyebrow as he read over the message and sat up. What could he have to say that's so important.
                          
Ah, alright. Does it have to be in person?
                          
-Eren
                          
Yes, it would be much easier.
                          
-Armin
                          
Alright. Then can you meet me at the pizza shop in town.
                          
-Eren
                          
Yeah, that works.
                          
-Armin
                          
Great, I'm on my way.
                          
After Eren had sent his last reply, he climbed off of his bed and stretched. He brought his arms back down and walked over to where his shoes were. He slipped them on before going over to his door and walking through it. He walked through the house and out the front door.
                          
He made his way uptown and to the pizza parlor. By the time he had arrived at the place, Armin was already inside and looking around. Eren pushed the door open and walked inside, going over to where his blonde headed friend was. He slid into the open seat across from him and looked over.
                          
"You texted?" He said.
                          
Armin bit his bottom lip and looked at Eren. "Yeah, we really need to talk about Mikasa."
                          
Eren rose an eyebrow at him, confused. "Ah, OK? What about her?"
                          
Armin sighed softly. "Eren, I don't think that Levi was lying to you earlier. After you left she told me some things that sounded pretty suspicious....."
                          
"What? What did she say?" Eren frowned.
                          
"I don't fully know what she was talking about, but it had something to do with what I was saying earlier. She was telling me about how I would see the truth and that I couldn't tell you anything."
                          
The frown on Erens face only increased at that. "But.... I don't get it... why would she do that? She wasn't even apart of that. The only thing I know is that she doesn'tlike Levi."
                          
Armin looked down at the table as he tried to piece everything together.
                          
"Unless....." He started slowly. "Unless she and Erwin really have done something."
                          
Eren looked at Arrmin confused.
                          
Armin noticed the look and continued on. "You were telling us that Levi was telling you that Erwin was planning on hurting you, correct?" Eren nodded his head. "Well, from the way she was acting about this and from what she was saying, I'm guessing that she had some type of knowledge about it."
                          
Eren was frowning deeply as he listened. "But..... why would she do this?"
                          
"Because she doesn't like Levi."
                          
Eren ran his hand through his hair, feeling like crying. "I ended it with Levi for nothing, then."
                          
Armin frowned at him. "I'm sure that if you explain the misunderstanding he'll understand."
                          
"No, no he won't." Eren said, shaking his head. "He already told me he wouldn't."
                          
Armin sighed. "He was mad, Eren. He probably didn't mean it. If you just explain to him why you didn't believe him at first, I'm sure he would understand."
                          
"But what's there to say? I don't have an actual reason for it, Armin."
                          
Armin groaned and ran a hand through his hair. "Wel, this is going to be difficult."
