@Eren Jaeger (No don't be sorry! To be honest my replies/activity has been slow lately due to a minor cold that doesn't want to go away it seems .___. You're fine ^^)


After browsing through his closet going through clothing after clothing, even asking his sister what outfit looked best on him for this type of thing and ignoring her constant jokes about him being a 'diva' or whatever he eventually arrived at his destination. Club Rose was packed as he expected it to be, making him bite his lip nervously.

Clubs and crowded places weren't really his thing so he was nervous as to how this would end up.

Yet. There was excitement as well. Excitement for finally trying something new for a change and with someone different.

Trying to shake all negative thoughts away, with his head held high, he marched bodily towards the club entrance grinning seeing Eren waiting for him. "Hey! Sorry it took so long to get here, I almost forgot where this place was."

[agh! Still feeling guilty about taking four days.. For sure in errr one week (or 1 1/2 weeks) I will not be busy! >_> I had so many competitions lately ;-;]

@Jackson Kang Eren rocked back and forth on his feet while waiting for Jackson. Anxiety was killing him while he stood there. Clubs did sound like a blast, but he wasn't sure how to act or how things worked. Hopefully Jackson will stay by his side. Would bad things happen like in the movies? Perhaps some stranger will try to feel him up or something to that affect... *Stop being so foolish. You are acting like an idiot...* His conscience told him. Eren chewed on his bottom lip, checked the time on his phone, and continued waiting. What was taking the guy so long? Maybe it wasn't that long, but it felt like it. Eren couldn't tell if he was more scared or excited for something new - instead of drawing or reading all the time.

The paranoia hit him about Jackson... How embarrassing it must be to go to a club with a scum like Eren. The looks that he'll receive.. Maybe the club will be friendly? Why was Eren thinking so negatively about some club... Surely nothing bad will happen, not with Jackson beside him. Hopefully.

@Eren Jaeger (I don't think a time skip will hurt)

A relieved smile spread across Jackson's face when he learned Eren didn't appear to be familiar with the nightclub scenes, taking a bite out of some stew he had. "No worries: This'll be my first time there as well. I've been offered a few times to go but, well you know the type of guy I can be ha. I think it'll be a good experience for both of us."

He had always wanted to try a bit of what most students their age liked doing. Sometimes, Jackson felt he was trying too hard to be like an adult...maybe a little partying here and there wouldn't hurt, well at least he hoped it wouldn't.

(Aw that's okay! I don't think you're ignoring me at all :3 It's all good)

@Jackson Kang [Should we time skip a bit or nahh??]

"Oh? Well that is oddly great timing." Eren commented and took another bite of food, "There's a nightclub?"

That would be interesting. Never did he go to something like that. He wasn't even sure about what to do if he went. Normally, he was home, drawing or doing some activity. His eyes lowered slightly, a bit embarrassed to admit, "That sounds like fun. Just don't expect me to- uh, look like I know what I'm doing there..." A soft chuckle came out of Eren. It was completely the opposite of how he was when he was in the library. Normally he is hateful, mean, annoying. What was wrong with him?

He became bashful and soft on Jackson. Maybe because of the gift, he wasn't sure. Or, obviously, it could be that Jackson was willing to befriend him. In his head, he was in denial about being soft, but... it was there. The tint of pink on Eren's cheeks never left, and he smiled again, "I think it will be fun to do something different for once."

[i just wanna let you know that you are fabulous and i'm not trying to ignore you okei? ;-; i had acting competitions so i wasnt able to reply]

@Eren Jaeger (Ah no worries! ^^ I swear my replies have been feeling short lately .//.)

"Me? Nah I'm not busy at all honestly, I have the day off this week to from work so we can do whatever you want." Jackson exclaimed with a bit of excitement his own.

It was a strange feeling to be honest. Jackson had always thought of Eren as annoying or an ignoramous yet here they were: Spending time with each other and talking as if they'd been friends for years. The universe really worked in mysterious ways that was for certain. Snapping out of his thoughts however, he cleared his throat and rubbed the back of his neck. "There's a new nightclub that opened up...would you like to check it out with me? It's sixteen+older so we should be fine getting in."

@Jackson Kang Eren nodded. It was true... Jackson could easily take care of himself. He glanced at his tutor, now friend, and saw the adorable smile that he gave. It was contagious, and he couldn't help but smile back. A small blush filled in Eren's cheeks. He liked the thought of becoming friends - not to mention, becoming friends with such an attractive fellow like Jackson.

"I think... I'd really like that..." Secretly, Eren wanted to hang out with Jackson sooner than just the weekend. The more he started thinking about it, the more excitement he had. "O-Or maybe after school today?" The smile be had was shy, but he couldn't help himself.

"Unless you're busy. I understand..."

[Sorry it is so short! Im on my phone and busy! Otl ]

@Eren Jaeger "Psh you don't have to worry about me, I can handle any moron that even dares to go after me after all." Jackson exclaimed giving his infamous grin followed by a one shoulder shrug after. He couldn't help but chuckle at the paying attention when he helped him out remark, feeling like things could turn out well after all maybe. "Only if you're up to it. I'd be glad to talk to you more often, want to do something this weekend?"

Sure some people might find their relationship on the 'odd' side but Jackson never did care really what others thought or who he hung around with.

@Jackson Kang Eren set the album aside and blinked at Jackson. This was new. "Eh what?" He wanted to make sure he heard him correctly. Who wanted to get to know Eren? No one did. He couldn't help but feel suspicious about it.

"You... want to us to get to know each other? You'd risk a reputation to be friends." He furrowed his eyebrows for a quick moment. "You idiot. Wanting to be friends with me is insane - or at least everyone around here thinks so. I don't want anything obnoxious or bad happen to you. I-I mean.. not that I care or anything..." He smiled, "If you really want to, I guess we can. It would be fun to have someone to talk to once in a while.." He mumbled the last bit, "...and maybe I'll actually pay attention when you tutor me."

Eren's face lit up, quite noticeably. In fact, the exhaustion in his face disappeared, and he seemed to be a bit more chipper than before. "Shall we give this 'get-to-know-each-other' a go?"

@Eren Jaeger (Really? Aw well thanks ^-^)

Seeing that smile on Eren's face was more than enough to please Jackson. Eren had looked so down lately for whatever reason that it was nice to see this side of him for a change as of late. "It's no trouble, actually I was kind of...kind of hoping we could try getting to know each other a little more." He exclaimed, rubbing the back of his neck feeling his face turn a light red color. The whispers stopped however when Jackson turned and glared a little at the ones talking about the two, shaking his head in disbelief before turning his attention back to Eren. "Just ignore them alright? To be honest, I don't really care about reputations and what not."

@Jackson Kang [awh. Bby it's perf! ^-^]

Eren furrowed his eyebrows. He never would have thought that Jackson would really buy something for him. He didn't expect anything, really. Slowly, Eren took the wrapped gift and looked at Jackson thoughtfully, "Thank you... Honestly," Eren grinned slightly, "I thought that you'd avoid me and not get me anything... Or pretend that you kept forgetting." He looked at the neatly wrapped gift and carefully ripped the paper off and looked at the band's name written across the album.

A wave of surprise hit him and a big smile grew from ear to ear. It was actually his favorite band! Eren looked back up at Jackson, "You... Wow... I love it..." He said almost too quietly. He never was able to buy any albums from the store as they were too expensive. This was more than Eren expected. The signatures on it were perfect and everything about the album was perfect. He held in his excitement - at least tried to. The smile in his face really tore that emotional barrier down and he was close to giving Jackson a hug... Maybe even kiss him!

"Really. You did more than make it up to me... " Eren felt flustered from his overbearing excitement. "Ah, sorry.. I'm just surprised that you picked out my favorite band.."

He looked around cautiously, noticing people look at them and whisper to each other, "Oh... I suppose that you'll want to leave? I don't want your reputation to get ruined.."

@Eren Jaeger "No, no it's not actually...well, I hope not anyway." Jackson cleared his throat afterwards feeling a bit more hopeful about all this sensing some excitement emerging out of him. Perhaps that this one thing he came up with, it would somehow get Eren to forgive him at least a little bit would suffice.

"I know it may not seem like much to you but before I got here I stopped by the music store real quick and found something I think you might like."

It was a signed, limited edition album of a band he thought Eren seemed to be interested in grinning sheepishly as he carefully slid the wrapped thing across to him.

(Yeah I...wasn't sure what it should be X'3 Hit a bit of a block)

@Jackson Kang Eren heard a familiar voice intercede with his thoughts. His dull green eyes slowly looked up to see Jackson sitting in front of him. "Mm?" he replied as his mouth was full of food. His dull green eyes brighted a bit, somewhat interested. He wiped his fingers on a napkin and swallowed his food, "You did, hm?" The curiosity was killing Eren. It wasn't even the fact that Eren eanted something, he was just extremely curiois about what it was that Jackson would come up with.

"It isn't too ridiculous is it?" He pretended to be approaching this topic with as little interest as possible. Just the excitement gleamed through his eyes, so it was hard to hide it, "What is then? Spit it out so you can leave quickly, and not be judged by everyone around her because you're sitting by me."

@Eren Jaeger (Sounds good!)

Jackson had spent all night trying to think of a way for Eren to finally be pleased with him. Just as he had almost given up, an idea began to form in his head. Oh he was trying not to smile like an idiot all day up until he reached the cafeteria that is.

After grabbing his food, he headed over to the table the other was seated at ignoring any odd looks he received from their school mates or staff members preparing for a 'fight' to happen between them. "Yo! Eren, I think I might have found something that'll make you very pleased with me." He exclaimed, smiling brightly as soon as he seated himself in front of him.

@Jackson Kang Eren, exhausted from yesterday, lazily walked through the lunchline and to the table to eat alone. It wasn't that he was hating everyone, it was just that being tired made him very touchy and annoyed. Besides, no one really was a friend of his in school, anyway. People were too frightened to befriend or talk to him with the way he glared at others. That is why he say alone.

It was never his fault. He had a rough past, it made him very protective and weary about others. The only friend he had lived far away. There was no one else he could talk to - except Jackson. Jackson was just a tutor - an annoying tutor that liked to make him feel bad. Eren's thoughts trailed back to Jackson, and he debated whether he should be nice or hateful. *He embarrassed me... But we worked well as a team yesterday after school...* He took a bite of his food, still thinking. *I wonder if he thought of anything to make it up to me..*

@Jackson Kang [Okay! I was thinking the same thing. Let's try the cafeteria. I'll begin now]

@Eren Jaeger (Somewhere else sounds good. Maybe they could meet up at the cafeteria or something? And the bonding thing sounds nice)

@Jackson Kang [I can begin~ ^^ hmm. Did you want it to take place here in the library again or would you prefer something else? I was kind of thinking thag they would accidentally start bonding, especially since Eren helped Jackson out with those guys... What do you think?]

@Eren Jaeger (We could do that sure ^^ Do you want me to start it or would you like to?)

@Jackson Kang [yeah! Sounds good to me~! Should we skip the time so they are back at school or...??]

@Eren Jaeger "Oh I know for a fact you haven't forgotten." Jackson exclaimed with a sheepish chuckle, grabbing his own bag that he almost forgot checking to make sure none of the contents in it were stolen from one of the guys they beat up. He some blood from his cut lip, slinging the bag over his shoulder grinning happily at the remark. "Sure thing! And I'm sure it'll be something I know you're pleased with."

And with that he proceeded to carry on in the opposite direction to his apartment complex.


(So...Should we time skip? X'3 I think I've hit a bit of a block)

@Jackson Kang Eren couldn't help but smile back when Jackson smiled at him. It was really a pleasant feature of Jackson's. His eyebrows raised when Jackson complimented him, "Eh? What are you talking about.. You're the one that seemed to have the skills.." He rubbed the back of his neck, feeling awkward about the praise. It wasn't normal flr him, so he'd notmal sidetrack it with a compliment toward Jackson.

Eren's grin fell and he glared at Jackson, "And you still owe me. Don't think that I forgot." He picked up his bag that he set aside before fighting, and began walking again. He didn't wait for Jackson, he just wanted to get going, and hope that he wouldn't get caught for beating the out of those guys. If Jackson followed him, that was fine... But he wouldn't help him again. Or, at least he thought that he wouldn't help him again. He called out to Jackson while he kept walking, "Let me know what you'll do to make it up to me. And I'll let you know if it's good enough."

@Eren Jaeger Despite the fact his face was scratched, bruised and bleeding a bit Jackson managed to finish the last guy off the minute he heard Eren's voice. His chest was heaving up and down at this point as a rather cocky sort of grin crept up over his face. "Ha! Well, guess that takes care of that." When he saw the one thug try getting back up he rolled his eyes, stepped on the guy's hand rather hard earning him to cry out in pain and casually walked back over to Eren giving him his infamous grin. "Hey you're not bad at all. I was actually impressed by some of your skills."

Jackson's adrenaline was pumping at this point.

He hadn't been in a fight like that since his middle school years and he didn't have a partner that time either to help him out, made it more of a struggle when he was fighting alone.

@Jackson Kang Eren glanced at Jackson, who seemed to be kicking the senior's . *Damn... He is good..* He was so caught up in watching Jackson, the other thug cane up to him and punched him in the jaw, just like the last one. He yelped slightly from surprise. More blood seeped from the corner of his mouth. The pain caused his adrenaline to spike again. He moved into a fight stance, dodging every punch the thug tried throwing. He'd return the punches, knocking the senior down with a kick in the groin. "Take that, you son of a !" Eren cackled, enjoying himself as he kicked the guy's .

This time, Eren left the guy awake, and he watched him groan in pain. He stood up, panting, and he looked over to Jackson. He really knew what he was doing... Swift punches and kicks. How can a guy move like that? It was very fascinating. Eren stood back, watching the scene take place. It was no doubt that the last thug was going to get his handed to him. In fact, it already started happening. "Finish him off!" Eren called out.

@Eren Jaeger (Aw not a problem XD)


"You bet I am." Jackson exclaimed. Just as he predicited one of the thugs threw a punch at him-clumsily he might add. Rolling his eyes, he raised his hands up to defend himself, raised his knee using his other leg to kick him in the side. A bit of a grin crossed over his face seeing him cry out, looking down at the thug who foolishly tried attacking but due to Jackson's agility he somehow managed to dodge most of his punches and what not. "Oh come on! Is that all you can do is punch? How disappointing." He 'tskd' in fake disappointment, using whatever technique he could on him snarling though when his jaw ended up getting hit, a rather nasty bruise forming as a result but he kept going no matter how many times he got hit hoping Eren could hold his own.

@Jackson Kang [asdfghjkl thank you! ;-; you are so sweet~]

Eren cocked his head to the side, trying to understand the mouthed words that Jackson had said. That was one thing he failed at: reading peoples lips. He couldn't do it to save his life. Eren sighed again, still annoyed by his own tutor. Jackson already knew some martial arts?! That would have been nice to know. That guy could have taken these guys down already! Eren only knew regular street fighting... Of course, he would know that stuff...

Eren glared at the two other men, "You know, that is true. So far, this guy is K.O.ed and you teo are next. Willing to take a chance?" He looked at Jackson, waiting for him to make the first move, since Eren already took down one of them. Whoever Jackson picked to fight, Eren would take the other.

Jackson better make it up to him, and it better be good. Eren pushed that thought to the side and focused on the guys in front. They're probably too stupid to realize what happened after they finish them. He was more than ready to fight..

@Eren Jaeger (Hey the longer the replies the better is what I say ^0^ And that's okay :) I've been off and on myself lately with RPR so no need to be sorry ^^)


Brown eyes widened in complete shock seeing the way they attacked Eren as they did. Okay, so he may not be entirely fond of his 'student' but if there's one thing that Jackson couldn't stand it was seeing someone get knocked around like that. When Eren stood up again, he smiled apologetically mouthing what looked like 'I'll make it up to you after this' or something of the sort grinning back at the three morons before them. "Heh. Come on Eren, we can take these bastards yeah? I've had a good five years of muay thai under my belt."

One of the punks snickered at that, arguing that they were just little weaklings who couldn't do a thing to them making him roll his eyes. "You know...if there's one thing I learned about bullies," he drawled, getting in a stance "They claim to be all talk. But no action."

@Eren Jaeger [oh... And sorry for writing so much. I didbt realize i typed that much

@Jackson Kang [I'm extremely sorry for being so late! I was caught up with some school activities otl]

Slowly walking down the side walk, he saw movement in the corner of his eye. He turned his head, noticing that these guys were ganging up on some other guy. Stopping dead in his tracks, he stared hard at them, watching the scene. No, it didn't look like it'd end well for the one guy. For God's sake, three big dudes? Eren rolled his eyes, annoyed that he would have to actually use energy from helping someone.

Eren strode across the street, and approached the three young fellows. He glanced that the guy, who was being harassed, and huge sigh escaped his lungs. Of course, out of all people, it had to be Jackson. He rolled his eyes again and then turned to the three men, "Do you guys have a problem here? I'm quite sure that there is something much better that you should be doing right now, instead of picking on someone smaller than you, eh?" He cocked an eyebrow.

His weight shifted to one leg and his arms were crossed. These seniors looked mean and hateful, but Eren didn't think they'd have the guts to actually get violent. Just to prove Eren wrong, one of the guys socked a punch right in the jaw. He stumbled back, rubbing the area that got hit. Wrong move for the senior boys. But... He stepped toward to attack the male that had hit him, and being too slow, he was punished by getting punched again in the side of his mouth. Blood seeped from his lips, after the teeth cut into his lip as he was hit, "You little er!"

Rage went through him and he started beating one senior relentlessly, until he stopped moving. He wasn't dead, he was just unconscious. Eren pulled away, standing up, and be looked at Jackson - giving the most annoyed look. Unbelievable. He is saving his tutor's . The one who humiliated him! Karma better hit him good soon.

@Eren Jaeger The day felt like it would never end for Jackson. Ever since that little 'incident' with Eren if he saw the other in the same class as him he'd just look away briefly not uttering one word. 'I really should try and make it up to him' He thought to himself, grabbing his things from his locker and slamming it shut. He said a small 'good-bye' to a classmate he was previously having a conversation with, his mind wracking with ideas as to how he could possibly make up for what he had done.

As he carried on down the side walk, looking through his cellphone to see if he had any text messages however three senior students got in his way earning a groan from him. "Aw damn it can't you guys just leave me alone for one freakin day?" He scolded, setting his backpack down beside him. These guys were pretty big alright but they weren't very bright most of the time, still though three on one proved to be quite a challenge for him.

(Hope you don't mind if I threw in a little bit of action? ^^;)
