The Beast and the Beast (Reiner x Bertolt)

Chapter 10

Burrito's POV:

~About 8 or 9? hours later~

PS! VrOoooM! We drive in hurry as we head to Marco's house. He shares house with Jean and Connie. Is he alright? I brought some of the hot coffee I made...I hope it'll help? Why...why would people do this? It's New year's!? why can't people just let him spend his New year's peacefully? He doesn't deserve this! Why?

As we park in the parking lot, we can hear that the others were gathering around and giving him some things. As we open the door to the room, I can see how Jean's holding him tight...and Marco...h-he looks b-bad... He's wrapped up in blankets...and sitting at the edge of the bottom bunk (It's a bunk bed)...his face is slightly pale and he constantly shakes as Jean hugs him...Sasha sees us and slightly waves. When we get in, Marco glances at us and whispers in a shaky voice,

"S-sorry but...c-can you get Reiner o-out of m-my sight?"

"Ooh. S-so the person that r-rped him looked like Reiner..." I quietly respond as I watch Reiner heading to the living room. "Here. W-we brought some coffee..." I say as I pour the hot coffee into the mug Jean handed me. As Marco slowly sips on the coffee, Connie says "*A-anosa, Should we play Uno???" It lighten up the mood a bit...Everyone nods as Armin shuffles and passes out the cards.

~Few hours later~

3rd Person POV:

Marco became a little well. He now has a small grin as he does a +4 on Connie. "WHAT! NOOO! ARE YOU SURE YOU'RE CALLED FRECKLED JESUS~!?" Connie shouts as he pulls 4 cards out of the pile. Marco giggles and says "Green." quietly as Sasha places a green 8 on the deck.

Also, Marco got used to seeing Reiner. He's now sitting next to Bertholdt, Peeping at his cards. Marco can look at him if he recognizes and understand that he's Reiner and not that B!tch that did those stuff to him. But if he looks unconsciously at him, his instincts make him turn away.

"OMG! It's already 3! SNACK TIMEEE" Sasha says as she brings out a HUGE bag of chips (2x bigger than the family-sized ones...)And rips it open..."Where did you even get those!?" Jean exclaims as he takes a handful from the bag. "I haaave all offf the flavvver of theeese..." She responds as she brings out...Classic, Salted, Barbecue, Sour cream, Cheese...You name it. And the thing is...that all of them is the 2x size of family-sized...And the bag she had could only contain about 2 of those...How did she even fit those in there...

As the crunching sound fills the room, Ymir asks out of the blue, "Do you guys like anyone???" At that, A few people tenses up. Yep, It's Armin, Marco, Sasha (crunching got faster), and yeah, Reiner and Bertolt (INTENSELY SWEATING). Ymir grins at ReiBert and says "Hmmm...so you guys ARE a thing..." But in a low voice so only they can hear it. They rapidly shakes their head and says "Stoppp..." in union as their cheeks get flustered. "Oooh~Whats up with those tall guys~??" Connie shouts as the whole room's attention goes to the ketchup-red potato fries...

"*a-ahha! ahha! T-there just embarrassed b-by the joke I made...!" Ymir fakes a hysterical laugh as she asks "Why did YOU guys tense up??" To the others that also tensed up at the question. "Um-I uh yah just chocked on the s-spicy chips!" Sasha smiles nervously as she holds up the extra-spicy chip bag. "Hmmmm...how bou't you? Arm-in?" " I-UM UH AHHHHH UMM EEETO..." Armin repeatedly says as he avoids a 'certain' person's stare (or glare...?)...

Hoover's POV:

I...think I got who Armin likes......I-it's Annie...I can see how he avoids her glare...or should I say stare?...ummm...should I say it??? Everyone's still wondering...I look at Reiner and also see that he also got who he likes. I whisper to him "What should we do...?" and he whispers back, "I...dunno???" Then Annie looks at us, and points at herself in a way that no one else sees it. We nod as her eyes go wide. Did I see that? I just saw her eyes light up a little with a light smear of pink on her cheeks...Oooooo???

"Haha, Armin's just avoiding some blonde girl's glares...Oops!" Reiner casually says as Armin starts to look like he's gonna burn himself. And Annie looks like she just wanna hide inside a crystal or something...Others starts to get who it is...(EXCEPT FOR EREN) and they starts to tease Armin. I can hear Marco speaking "Oh my gosh you guysss...stop teasing Arminnn" and Annie asking "Who's your crush then, huh??" As she tries to chill her flushed cheeks.

"IIIIIII ummmm I um I --- iiii don't llike anyone..., yah. I-I like A-AIR yes, AIR. Doesn't that count too?? Like I LOVE them you know?" At that, I hear Eren scream, like, really loud "WAIT ISN'T IT HORSE-FACE!?? LIKE YOU GUYS ARE SO CLOSE NOW DAYS" Owww...my ears...a-and at that, Marco buries his face into Jean's chest...Waittt...? What??? WHY WOULD HE BURY HIS FACE IN HIS CRUSHES FACE?

"Why are you blushing, Marco? Aren't you used to it by now??? It's been weeks since we started da-...OOH SH!T!!!" with those words, he slaps his hands on his face as he deeply sighs...(!?!?)

OHHH THEY'RE DATING!? OMGOMGOMG..."Yah I was about to mention that..." Connie blurts it out from behind. "Oh yeah, was is last week? I couldn't really concentrate on my homework because THOSE TWO we're so focused on cuddling and making out that I had to literally shove them apart so they come back to reality..." JeanMarco's face turns into many shades of red.

But then, like something snapped, Marco's eyes go wide as tears form and slide down his freckle-covered face. "Are you ok? Babe??" Jean looks really worried...What happened??? Wait...is it because Connie talked about 'making out' and 'cuddling'? Like did it trigger something that's connected to t-that incident...? Sasha then looks at the clock and says "OH MY...I'M GONNA BE LATE FOR MY ARCHERY PRACTICE!!! BYE! YOU GUYS CAN HAVE THE CHIPS!"

As we hear the front door close, Marco says "Sorry...I wanna sleep now...is that ok??" and we hear people respond "Sure" and "Why not?". We can hear Marco whisper something in his lover's ear as Jean nods in response. Marco then puts his head on Jeans lap as he lays himself in a comfy position before he falls asleep. I hope...I really hope that he will get well...

And...I hope those b!tches really go to hell for doing those sh!tty things...And have a TERRIBLE rest of the year...
