Jean POV:

It's the first day of school again.This year will defenitely be the year when I will make a move on that beauty I call; Marco.This year will also be the year that that shitty asshole, Eren won't be so shitty.This year will be different. I plan to make it different. Obviously, starting with Marco. He's my first priority. He will never be anything less than the love of my life. I mean..,that's what he is to me.

My name is Jean..um and it's prounounced like the name, "John".
I hate when people screw up my name. At least my friends don't mispronouce it. Sasha still mispronounces my name for a good laugh from my other friends.
I guess I got used to being called Jean as in a pair of jeans as well. I hate it, but what can I do?

Marco has lived near me for years, so we walk together everyday. If he didn't go to school,I wouldn't go. My mom just thought it was a coincidence that we both got sick on the same days. Or she was possibly teasing me about my crush on Marco, which she had fully figured out about in middle school. She was strangely excited hearing that I have a crush on Marco. It's creepy.

"Marco wake up!"
I said as I climbed into his window like we did to each other since we were kids. It's weird, but we just go around climbing in each other's windows like freaks.

He yawned once he opened his eyes and got up.The little bastard all shirtless in bed.Goddamn tease.I know he wasn't doing it on purpose, but the thought of if he did do this on purpose pissed me off to the point where I wanted to just grab him and- I don't know.. "A-Aye,Marco,hurry up and get dressed.."
"I know,I know." I looked away knowing that it would be horrible if he saw me blushing.Love feels like hell.

"Okay,done.I just need to brush my teeth,give me a minute.You can come in by the way." I nodded as he left.I stepped into his neat room and waiting for him to get out of the bathroom.

After a short while, he called out;
"Come on Jean,I'm done."
I then grab his hand and pull him outside through the front door of his house. I quickly pace down the drive way and down Marco's and also my street. He looked confused as to why I was rushing him. "Are we late?"
"I want to get there early."
"How come?" He asks me afterwards.
"I want to talk to you."
He nodded and continued to walk.We still held hands but I don't think he noticed but I was defenitely feeling awkward. "Sorry." I said and let his hand go. "I don't mine." He said laughing.Again..freakin' tease. Honestly, I didn't want to let go of his hand. I mean, I know it's not normal for male friends to happily walk to school together holding hands, but I guess it's normal for us, and I really didn't care if anyone had anything to say. I think I scare people at school.
Not in the 'I'm going to beat you up' way, but in the 'I'll sacrifice you to satan' way. I don't make friends easily, and most of the guys at my school really don't like me because apparently it's 'obvious' that I like Marco?

Marco and I got to our school. "Hey,I'm going to the office to get my schedule.Talk to Eren or something."
I say to Marco. He nods and starts to walk over to Eren, Armin, and Mikasa. I looked back at Marco to see him already talking to Eren and Armin about homeroom.I sigh and quickly got my schedule from the office before the doors open for school.I walked back to Marco.Eren, Mikasa and Armin had already left, so Marco was just standing there

"What classes did you get,Jean?"
I looked through the classes. "French,Math,English,science,gym,
social studies,computers."
"I have French,Math,and gym with you." He smiles and nudges me slightly. I would have hoped to have more classes with him,but we only have three together. "Same homeroom though, so it's like three and a half."
Marco smiled. "Haha,I guess you could say that." It was silent for a minute until Marco widened his eyes as he remembers somethings. "Oh yeah,what did you want to talk about?"
"Oh right.Well..Marco,I've wanted to tell you this for a while but I couldn't make myself do it,but I..um..."
Dammit!I was doing it again.Freezing up on him. "Jean,if it's that hard to say then you could have texted it to me or called me if you can't say it in person."
"Actually,this is something I should do in person.Well I really like..no hold on,Eren thinks-"
"Wait,I think I know."
"Y-You do?" I asked him in a scared tone. "You like Eren!"

"WHAT?!No way in the hell..!"
"You can't hide it anymore,I knew you liked him."
"I don't like that bastard.."
My life was ruined.I don't even know who's the idiot in this friendship.

In homeroom the teacher was nice but his voice annoys me right now while I'm thinking.He's the math teacher though,he will talk a lot in class.
I looked over at Marco.He is like the best student- or best well behaved. He's quiet and get's all A's and B's in school.Once in a while a C+.
He was paying attention to the math teacher talking about the new school year and thing like that.He passed people without a schedule their schedules and told us to get out stuff ready because the bell would ring soon for first period.Once it rang,Marco and I started finding our way to the French class room.

I walk in with him.He sat in the front so I sat on seat next to him.Mikasa, (my old crush and the asshole's sister) was the first in class.She's the goodie-goodie.More goodie-goodie than Marco I guess you could say. Sasha walkes in the class eating as I would have expected, and then Armin and Eren. Marco nudged me when he saw Eren looking around the class that was full with his friends.

About five minutes later the French teacher walked in.Now let me tell you..he was goddamn sexy.He was short,had this sexy-ish yet angry expression,black hair,and was very clean I guess you could say. All the girls where dying behind me.I turned over and they were smaking makeup on them and fixing their hair. As if a teacher would ever flirt with a student.

But...all class all I could concentrate on was Marco.Even from this angle, he is cute. I tried writing him a note. I understand it's corny and stupid, but I had to tell him because it was killing me.I ripped a piece of paper out of ny new white notebook and wrote a few words.It said;

Hey the teacher is pretty cute right?

Just to start a conversation. I crumpled it up and put it on his desk.
He opened it a took out a blue pen.He then tossed it back to me a few seconds later.I opened it he wrote; "He's very cute."

Maybe he was a "little gay", or maybe he likes this teacher and not me!Wait no..or maybe he's making fun of me.
When the bell thankfully rang after quite a while. I stood up and put on my bag.There were a bunch of papers on the floor that Eren dropped.Idiot.
"Hey Jean.He's cute,but I like someone already." He laughed in an affectionate way.You know,friendly laughs where you should laugh too even if you don't want to,because honestly,I wanted to scream knowing that he likes someone.

"Who?"
"I'll tell you when you tell me who you actually like." He said with a smirk.
"Geez freckles,that's a good deal but I need to think on it."
"Haha,okay Jean.My offer expires as soon as I stop liking who I like,but that is highly unlikely,so you have a while to think,but I'm impatient." He said and walked with me to the next class.
Just my luck,he won't tell me until I tell him.I sighed. That damn adorable Marco is a smart ass..
