Mr. Smith | Erwin/Reader & Eren/Reader (Lemon)

Chapter 8

Sorry for the wait everyone, I've been really busy this week! Before anyone reads this chapter, I want to point out that there has been an Eren/reader tag on this story since I posted chapter 2. We're gonna talk to Erwin soon and figure out what's going on, but this is Eren's chapter. Enjoy! (Especially my Eren simps!)

"What is it Eren?"

"I need to talk to you. Please."

You buzz him up without saying anything else. After a few moments, you hear a soft knock on your door. You open the door to see Eren, still clad in his tuxedo with his hands buried in his pockets.

"Hey."

You move to the side and and motion him to come inside before crossing your arms. Once he's in, you close the door and make your way over to the couch. He follows behind you and takes a seat, leaving the space of one cushion between you two.

"So? What are you doing here?" You question, gesturing him to say what he has to say.

"I wanted to make sure you were okay. I saw you leaving with... him." He says, not able to look at you just yet.

"Jean? Is that what this is about? He was a complete gentleman tonight, unlike your behavior lately. I don't know why you even care."

"Why I care? Of course I care! Jean is—"

"Is what? He was fine with me! He explained to me why the two of you don't get along, and it's so stupid Eren!" You went on to tell him what you heard from Jean about him and Mikasa, and his eyes grow wide.

"I know she still loves him, and I've realized lately that she'll always pick him over me, and I think I'm coming to terms with that, finally. So no, I really don't want anything to do with him at this point."

His demeanor changes as he sullenly says this, raising his head to bring his eyes to yours.

"Okay, I can apologize for not knowing both sides, and you're entitled to feel how you want about it. Jean was good to me tonight, and I can't change how you feel about him. But why do you care so much if I left with him?"

"Because."

"Because what?"

"I care about you."

"Well, if that were true, you wouldn't have been acting the way you've been acting towards me."

"I'm sorry." He scoots close enough to you to grab your hands, his green pools filled with a plethora of emotions. "I'm so, so sorry for how I've been treating you, you didn't deserve that. I don't really know how to express myself how I want to, but..." he takes a deep and somewhat shaky breath. "I do have feelings for you, I know you may not feel the same way, and that's okay. I just need you to know."

He doesn't let your hands go, and you feel— well, you feel the same way you felt when Annie, Mikasa, and Armin expressed how he may feel for you. Except this time, you're not able to shake it off.

"Uhm." You take a deep breath to steady yourself. "I don't really know what to say, you know that I was seeing someone, why did you wait until now? I mean- I would've been open to the idea had you said something before." His eyes slightly grow hopeful as you say this. "But either way, this isn't fair Eren." you say as you snatch your hands away from his, even though you really didn't want to.
