Jet Black Heart (Jean x Reader Oneshot)

Part One ~ Plans

"Oh, (Y/N)! We both know it! You like him don't you? Come on, don't deny it!" Sasha and Mikasa whispered at you.

You sighed and blushed at the same time, "Yeah, yeah. So what? Are you going to go around and start telling everyone? If you do I'll kick both of your asses into next week!"

Sasha and Mikasa laughed. "No we aren't, but we totally ship you two!" Mikasa yelled at you. You put a finger to Mikasa's lips and told her to shut up. You, Mikasa, and Sasha all shared a room at the Scout's base. It was past curfew for you three to be asleep but you didn't give a flying crap. You were all huddled on Mikasa's bed talking about secrets . . . and your crush.

Mikasa had her bed on the left side of the room while you and Sasha had bunk beds. You thought it was childish that they even had that but secretly you loved it. You took the top bunk since Sasha had strange dreams and always ended up on the floor and your pillow in her mouth. Mikasa always laughed when that happened and laughed even harder when Sasha would still think she's asleep and assault you for taking her potatoes.

"Don't . . . tell him okay?" You flushed and averted your eyes down to your twidiling thumbs. Your (h/c) hair fell over your face and hid your blushing face. Sasha and Mikasa gave each other looks that said, 'That is so cute, she really does like him~!'

Mikasa lifted your chin and smiled at you, "Don't worry (y/n), we will never tell anyone." You smiled back, "Thanks guys, you two are my best friends!"

You all laughed together so loud you had summoned Levi himself from his chambers. Banging on the door started and his angry voice filtered through the room, "You brats are going to run laps until the sun sets tomorrow if you don't shut your loud mouths!" Then you heard footsteps stomp away from your door. You snickered like Mikasa but Sasha had a horrified look on her face. You'd think she would be used to running laps by now since she always causes trouble.

A yawn stopped your laughing, bringing tears to the corners of your eyes. You told the others you were going to bed and you scrambled to the top bunk. The others did the same and they yelled goodnight a little to loudly. Once again you heard Levi yelling about laps but running them in Titan Country.

That immediately made all three of you shut up. You closed your eyes but didn't fall asleep. Doubts and worries were keeping you from fully sleeping. 'What if Mikasa tells Eren? She always spills secrets that aren't hers into Eren's ear. And God knows Sasha can't. That girl has no filter. When we were still young recruits, Sasha accidentally let a secret out during dinner time. She told everyone that Ymir had a crush on Christa, making it soooo awkward afterwards since Christa was sitting at a table next to us. I mean, we all kinda knew but she said it too soon. After that, Ymir beat Sasha within an inch of her life.' A small chuckle escaped at the thought of that. Sasha came in much later that night, crawling in your bed and latching on to you for fear of her coming back to "finish the job". But the next morning she woke up, not remembering anything. You swore she had the brain of a fish.

But going back to the matter at hand, you decided sleep was more important than worrying, after all, they are your friends. You listened to everything and calmed yourself. You heard Mikasa slow her breathing down and you knew she was asleep. Sasha was dead asleep and already talking about food and potato children.

You sighed. It felt good to tell someone about your crush. You tossed and turned in your bed and finally started to get sleepy. But before you fell into the clutches of slumber you thought of his smile . . . Jean Kirschtein's smile.

"Come on man, we're tired of hearing about it! Give it a rest Jean," Eren said.

It was morning. You sat at your regular table with Eren, Mikasa, Armin, Jean, Sasha, and Connie at breakfast. With you sitting in front of Jean. Jean was bragging about how he aced his test and how it was easy. Eren on the other hand . . . failed his test. One, because he didn't study, and two is because of his lack of sleep from cleaning Levi's office top to bottom. They had been at it for five minutes straight and you kept silent.

Jean huffed and looked defeated with Eren looking smug. You hated seeing Jean like that so you said, "Why don't you listen for once Eren? You might actually learn something from Jean since he passed and you failed epically. Levi may punish you for that to if you keep slacking off."

Eren's jaw dropped open and everyone stared at you. You blushed but you glared at the shocked Eren beside you. "Welllllll, this isn't akward . . ." said Connie. Blushing, you turned to Jean who had his signature smile on his face that made you melt and eyes that made you want to stare into them forever.

"Thanks (y/n), if you want to study with me sometime don't hesitate to ask, okay?" Jean said. Your eyes didn't leave his and you felt like you were floating just from his words. 'Holy hell he just said a few words and I feel like I just melted into my seat!'

As you kept staring at him intently, concern flickered across his face, "Are you alright (y/n)?" You snapped out of your daze and you smiled brightly at him, "Yes, just thinking is all. I accept your offer though...I do need a little help," you lied. You had a perfect score on your test and didn't need any help at all, but spending some time with Jean alone made your heart flutter with excitement. You tucked your (h/c) hair behind your ear and blushed a little.

Jean, never losing his smile, nodded and replied, "Alright, since today is free day we can study an hour from now. How about outside near that great oak past the stables?"

Refraining from looking like a total idiot kept your head from nodding like a bobblehead. He smiled again in response. 'He sure does smile a lot.'

Eren whistled and leaned toward Jean, "So you're a smooth operator, huh? You gonna mak-" Eren said before he was interuppted by Mikasa's kick to his leg. He sank back down in pain and you gave a suspicious glance to Mikasa. She refused to look you in the eyes and when she did she looked away.

'That bitch told him!' You scowled at Mikasa and she just went back to eating. You looked over at Jean and saw he had an annoyed face aimed towards Eren, but when he saw you looking he gave a small smile and got up. "See you (y/n)!" He yelled as he walked out of the mess hall to the courtyard. You sighed, losing your appetite because of Mikasa and decided to walk back to your room.

You got up and speed-walked to the hallway. You kept your head down when you walked because you didn't want anyone to see the major blush forming on your face. This also caused you to fail noticing that Corporal Levi was walking in the same hall as you and bumped right into him.

You backed up a little and stuttered when he looked at you with an evil glare, "I-uhm, I-I'm sorry Captain Levi I-"

"Wait," he interrupted, staring at you suspiciously and pointing at you, "Are you one of the girls that was laughing and making all that ruckus last night?"

You were about to say it was until you got a wicked idea to get back at Mikasa AND Eren.

"No sir, Mikasa and Sasha were the ones making the noise," you leaned closer and whispered to Levi, "And Eren failed his test and is blaming it on you," you said trying to stop from deviously smiling.

Levi had produced a dark aura as you said those last words and he stormed off, completely forgetting you. You waited in the hallway for a second and heard from the mess hall, "YOU'RE GOING TO RUN LAPS UNTIL YOU SWEAT ME A LAKE YOU FILTHY PIGS! AND EREN YOU WILL CLEAN MY OFFICE FROM NOW UNTIL THE DAY YOU DIE."

You laughed and continued to walk to your room. 'And that was for Jean,' you thought.
