Jean walked down the hallway with power in his strides and fire in his eyes. "Eren!" The brunette in reference snapped his head up from his locker, scowling when he saw who scared him.

"What do you want?" he asked curtly.

"I need your help."

Eren scoffed. "You must be desperate." Jean's face made it clear that he was. Eren furrowed his brows. "What is it?"

"Y/n is acting super weird. There's something she's not telling me, I can feel it." He was right. You still had to figure things out for yourself. You were too busy processing the information to even think about telling anyone else.

"Did you ask Mikasa? It might be a girl thing," Eren suggested.

Jean shook his head. "She tells me all her girl things. Plus, I already asked Mikasa. She doesn't know anything and she wants no part in my plan."

"Plan?"

"What do you think about Armin and Y/n together?"

Eren looked surprised and shut his locker. "I think he's been rude to her lately and she doesn't need that kind of bullshit in a relationship."

Jean was shocked by Eren's sudden ability to come up with something logical. "Truth, but you know he has a jealousy problem."

"That's not really an excuse." Again, Eren's was spot on.

Jean rolled his eyes and continued. "Point is, I have a lot of evidence pointing to an attraction between them, and their avoidance to each other is breaking up the band."

Eren shrugged, folding his arms against his chest. "There's nothing we can really do about their feelings, no matter how much you like meddling in other people's lives." He began to walk away from Jean, thinking he effectively ended the conversation. Then, Jean said something that made him stop and listen.

"What if I told you there was?"

Armin was having the best day of his life, said sarcastically.

He couldn't get the image of you and Pieck out of his head. Even after two weeks, it was still burned into his mind.

Whenever he saw you it was only a reminder of that night. He hated ignoring you more than anything but any time he got near you, he felt a burning in his chest after remembering the way you kissed Pieck.

He wasn't dumb. He was acutely aware of his problem. Burning hot flames of jealousy overtook his mind ever since Pieck came into your life. He never felt more like a second choice yet he was the one pushing you away.
