"Hey Armin you know how I've got to break up with Levi?"

Armin hums letting Eren know to carry on.

"D-Don't you have to break up with Ymir?" Eren asks, his head hung low.

"What?!" Armin stares at Eren before giggling.

The giggling turned into laughter which Armin had to try and calm himself down so he could stop laughing.

"A-Are you serious?! Me and Ymir?!" Armin wipes away the tears out of the corner of his eye from him laughing too hard.

"I thought you two were dating." Eren cocks his head to one side confused as ever.

"What no! Ymir is a whole lesbian, plus she's had a thing for Krista for years."

"You two were just really close and I just assumed."

"Aw, is someone jealous." Armin teases poking Eren's side.

"I'm not jealous I just thought."

"Alright, it's okay I can see why you'd would think we are dating."

"Anyways, how to break the news to Levi. I mean he's gonna be pissed especially because he thinks we have dated beforehand." Eren mutters resting his head on Armin's shoulder.

"Just tell him that it wasn't working out. I mean he wouldn't even let you hold his hand, that obviously made you unhappy. I could tell." Armin sighs placing his hand on Eren's thigh.

Eren puts his hand on top of Armin's and intertwines his hand with the blondes. "He wouldn't let me even cuddle him. He was more bothered about his shirt getting creased than my feelings. I should've got to know him first before jumping to relationships."

Armin nods his head, "It wasn't your fault. You just really liked Levi, it was understandable."

"I know it's just-"

"Did you enjoy being in a relationship with him?"

"What? I think so but now looking back at it, how could enjoy being in a relationship with someone when he never even kissed me properly. I'm sorry Armin." Eren puts his hands on his face and sighs.

"Sorry about what?" Armin asks removing one of Eren's hands from his face so Eren could look at him.

"About leading you on and making out with you for my selfish reasons. I'm sorry for all the fake boyfriend bullshit and just everything in general."

"Eren it's okay, I already forgave you. And about the fake boyfriend shit I honestly didn't realise my crush on you until you dated Levi. Yes it was a stupid move to make out with me but if you hadn't then we wouldn't be here right now." Armin smiles taking both of Eren's hands in his own.
