[He'll look at the key. Sure it could be a bike key, but there's something off about it. Why would Eren be showing that off to him? Why didn't he drive his bike close to the house.
[ did heā? what??? come on, heās not going to spoil it too easily, the keys were supposed to be hints! or not, i mean, he could just be gesturing that he wants to take him out on another bike ride around the block.
after a minute, he snagged the keys back and slips a finger through the key ring. ]
We should get that fresh air just to be sure.
[ smirk. a good distraction. this was a good distraction. ]
[ they can just organize things more or less, cover the pot and leave tablewhere on their proper plates. eren will help out wherever itās needed here before he gets up and gives elliotās hand to help him stand. keeping his body closely snug to his during the first few steps out of his room, eren presses a kiss to his head. heās grateful, for all of this so far.
hopefully, they could keep talking.
out the door, eren will lead them out and down a few blocks, some cars parked, of all shapes and colors. thereāre a few motorcycles out there, but itās hard to tell if itās really erenās from so far away. ]
[Elliot appreciates the help, and sure enough in no time they managed to clean up together. When they walk out together and Eren kisses his head, he'll smile up at him and take his hand, walking with him to where Eren leads them.
Which is...a row of cars and bikes. None of them are familiar]
[Luckily Elliot's not dumb enough to try to unlock physical car doors with the keys, so he'll just hit the button that makes the lights flash! Or what he hopes is the right button]
Butterfly doors. [ erenās always loved the exaggerated sportiness of a lamborghini or mclarenā but the bmw i8 just hit his favorite spot in terms of looks. lean, agressive, but not too over the top. ]
[Yeah he was too busy being in awe of the car doors that he forgot to actually get INTO the car. He makes a sheepish laugh before sliding into that front seat. So taking a moment to look at the interior features with the same awe]
Haha, okay, getting even more convinced you took this from a movie set.
Itās been calling me ever since I got the insurance money back from the other one. A few more months and I had enough.
[ eren laughs as he slips over into the passenger seat. the carās got a button to turn on rather than a key ignition, so all he had to do was have the key close by. automatic or manual option, albeit the latter is located behind the steering wheel as a clicker for the fingers. like formula one. default is on automatic, though! ]
Heheh, I'm impressed your insurance covered titans. Remind me to get your plan.
[Since man that thing must cover everything. He gets his seatbelt on and looks at the wheel area. Whoa it looks a little different from the cars hes driven. ]
Yeah, alright. Just gimme a moment...does this button turn it on? [POINTING AT THE IGNITION BUTTON] Where's the key?
[ sLY SHRUG. he lets matt handle the legal issues and all goes well 99% of the time. eren nods and gestures for him to do the honors, and since elliot probably had the key to unlock it earlierā ]
You can just stick that in here. You donāt need it for ignition.
[ erenās just smiling here as he looks across the carās display screen and plays touch and scrollā maybe fix the air conditioning to just right, out on some music . . . ]
[ he guides elliotās hand to the steering wheel, and a touch behind them, heāll see a paddle shifter for the fingers. he also presses the āsportā button somewhere on the dashboard. ]
I like manual for thisā You use paddle shifters here instead of the gear stick. Click them forward and back to change gears.
[ as for what sport mode really is, well!! ]
Youāre gonna have to start driving to tell the difference.
[But he lets Eren guide his fingers, helping him get a feel for the car. Okay, he feels that paddle shifter. He's used stuff like this before]
Okay, that sounds fine. We'll try sports mode then.
[With that said, he'll get the car out of park finally and pull out, checking over his shoulder like a good responsible driver. Once they're out of the spot, it's time to hit the road!]

Open the door.

But that's nothing compared to when he listens and opens the door, which rises up. He gasps and steps back]
