Jeankasa -Jealousy- (MODERN AU)

Chapter One

(A/N) Hey y'all - so before we begin I just wanted to clarify that this book was already published (at least the first seven chapters) but I had stupidly unpublished it because I hated living with the fact that I had an unfinished book :( - with that said though - as of right now I am hoping to finish up the book but I unfortunately feel as though I have missed my opportunity to do so. Nonetheless! I hope you all enjoy and comment on what you think since I absolutely love to read what you all have to say! Wattpad comments are the best <3

-Mikasa's POV-

-LUNCH-

   While walking back to Eren and Armin I saw Hannah in the corner of my eye calling me over to her table with a wave of her hand. "Mikasa!" The ginger smiled, the freckles on her cheeks dancing on her face as she beamed. I stride towards Hannah and her boyfriend Franz who is always by her side like a flea is to an animal. 

   "I'm glad to see we're in the same first period this year Mikasa! It seems like we haven't spoken in years!" I nod, "Yeah I guess we haven't..." I glance at the ground, anxious to get to Armin and Eren. Hannah stands up and puts her hands on my shoulders, "First things first we need to catch up! Like since when was your hair so short?" Her hand reaches out to touch my hair, "Your hair was so long and beautiful! And where'd you get that signature scarf you're in everyday?" I was just about to answer when Eren's voice cut me off. "Oi! Mikasa!" I turned around and saw him gesturing for me to sit down at the table he was sitting at. I glance at Hannah once more and give a small smile, "Well I have to go..." Hannah cuts me off with an obvious wink and gleaming white teeth. "Oh yeah so you can get back to your boyfriend!?" I roll my eyes, but felt a little heat on my face. I always tried to keep a cool exterior, but moments like this made it quite difficult. "It's not like that... You know that Hannah," I mumble, bringing my scarf up to my lips. Franz who hadn't spoken the whole time, chuckled at his girlfriend and patted her shoulder, "Hannah I think you've tortured the poor girl enough." Hannah turned around and pouted as she crossed her arms, but soon erupted in laughter, "Franz you never let me have my fun, but you're too cute to stay mad at!" Franz held Hannah closer and laughed as well, "Maybe I tease you because you look so cute mad!" I quickly leave the gushy couple before Hannah started poking me around again.

   Destiny I guess just didn't want me to sit down with my best friends. Someone rammed into my side headfirst; usually this wouldn't be a big deal, but the one who rammed into my side was none other than Reiner Braun, quarterback of the football team. I could most definitely take him on in a fight, but the muscle he had was enough to make anyone bruised.

    I find myself falling toward the ground as I lost my footing. I instinctively let go of my tray so my arms could catch my fall, the impact however, never came. A pair of arms prevented my fall. "Are you alright?!" Armin came running to my aid; I turned toward him and pushed the unknown savior away while receiving help from Armin to stand up. "Yes, thank you." I say, brushing off my crumpled yellow uniform and trying to act as if the whole scenario didn't happen. "And thank you-" I thought it would be polite to thank who caught me - even though I would've been fine - but no one was behind me.

   Eren glides up to Armin's side; the blonde boy spoke up again, "You should go to the nurse to see if your side is alright!" Was it really that bad of a hit? "what happened?" Leading us back to the table Eren sighed, "Reiner was bothering Annie so she threw him all the way to where you were standing." "Jean recklessly threw himself to catch you," Armin chimed in. Eren groans and bops the top of Armin's head with his fist, "Let's not speak about that piece of horse shit!" I turn around again in hopes of catching a glance at the bi-haired boy.

    Armin smiles awkwardly at Eren's comment and then bends down to pick up my tray of scattered food. "Armin I've got it-" Armin shakes his head at me, "With that most likely bruised side of yours you shouldn't be bending down." I frown, but follow Eren as he goes to sit back down. Eren sits down next to me, looks at his tray, and sighs, "I'm not hungry anymore you can have it." I gazed at Eren and shook my head, "Eren you need to eat." Eren just shoves his tray toward me, "I already ate, just have what's left... please." I stare at the food for a moment, and then decide to finish up whatever was left. Once done I glance down at my lap and sit patiently for the bell to dismiss us to fourth period. Armin comes back after what seemed like ages and breaks the uncomfortable silence. "Mikasa have you eaten anything?" I silently nod, not lifting my eyes. Eren stays silent. Armin sits across from us and forces himself to finish the gross cafeteria food, "So Mikasa how was your third period?" I finally look up at the blonde and speak, "It was okay, but no one spoke to me, it was quite boring in all honesty." Armin gave a small smile with his eyes closed, "No one speaks to me in my periods either other than Eren and Marco, but sorry to hear about that." I look at Eren and open my mouth to speak, but the bell interrupts my words. Eren quickly stands up, "I'll clean up the table a bit." "Eren-" I begin to follow the brunette but Armin grabs my arm, "Mikasa let's get to class." Eren starts walking away to the trash with the remaining trays in his hands. I sigh and follow Armin. 

   It stays silent for a while between us, but as soon as Armin made sure no one could hear what he was about to say he starts to speak. "Mikasa I have to tell you..." He stopped walking and I followed this action with a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach. He starts up again, "I'm sure you've noticed that Eren has been more pissed off than usual lately..." Of course I had... "I confronted him earlier about it and..." He was stalling - his hands were wringing together and his brow was sweating - obvious signs of nerves. "Armin just spit it out." My tone wasn't demanding but it did hold an edge of urgency. I was usually quite patient but in matters that concerned the two people I loved most (respectively Eren and Armin) I couldn't hold back my fear for their wellbeing. "Okay fine you're right!" He brought his hands down and looked at me in the eyes. "The reason Eren has been so ticked off is because he thinks he caught feelings for..." He looked behind him. "Annie Leonhardt." He whispered.

I'm actually quite excited for this book! I think it will be fun and exciting writing about Jeankasa and Eremika because I actually ship both quite a lot! (but moreso Jeankasa and Ereannie although it's a rare pair...) Of course I'll try and add other ships in here too (Like how I added Franz and Hannah)
