Hey!!! Sorry! I had writer's block with these guys! I guess you could say my mind was only 50% into it...yep I'll go hurt myself now 😂
I hope you appreciate the video I attached with this fanfic even though Marco dies halfway through it... okay that wasn't intentional...but I think the video will go well with this fanfic!
So I'm sorry that this might not be the best fanfic of Jean and Marco. This is actually my first time writing one of them and like I said, I had a major writer's block. I hope you guys still like it though!
PS: I can't promise that I will make through this fanfic without making any more puns. I apologize in advance 😂
It was another usual day during Cadet Training. Jean and Eren were arguing, like usual. Mikasa was trying to protect Eren from Jean's "harsh" ways. Armin was trying to convince Eren in his own way that maybe he and Jean were trying to help humanity in their own, unique way. Sasha was obsessing over bread and potatoes. Ymir was obsessing over Christa. Conny was trying to get Sasha to train with him, even though he considered himself a "genius". Reiner and Bertholdt were actually the only ones who were training. (Sorry if I forget a few people!)
But what was Marco doing? He was observing Jean from a distance away from the 104th cadets. It might sound....stalkerish...but Marco actually admired the way Jean criticized Eren for always explaing how he was going to"throw his life away". It wasn't because he loved him, I mean...he honestly did...but he believed that Jean was a great leader out of everyone because he could sympathize with those who are weak.
That's right. He didn't believe Horse-I mean Jean (goddammit) would be a good leader because he was strong..it was because he was weak. Now it might sound bad in that way, but he was at least strong enough to bear the losses that he would lose under his orders.
Marco believed that Jean could do it. Why else would he keep going after Eren like this?
Horseface's Pov (I HAD TO DO IT AT LEAST ONCE!):
Armin and Mikasa walked away with Eren which left me alone once again. Huh? Alone? Isn't Marco usually holding me back from Eren? He's usually what's keeping me from killing the guy.
I look around the training grounds before spotting Marco a little bit aways from us. Why is he all the way over there? Maybe his mind isn't completely into the training today. He isn't going to join the MPs like that.
I walk over to Marco and slowly put my hand on his shoulder, careful not the startle him. He looks over at me and I give him a look of confusion. "Not 100% today, Marco?" I asked. "More like 50%." He responded. (....I have no regrets. If you clicked on this fanfic, you should have known this was coming.)
"You know that if you keep wasting your time during training, you won't reach the top ten and get in with the MPs." I told him. He sighed as he rubbed the back of his neck. "I know that..." "Then why are you skipping?" I asked.
"I see how good you and the others are in training and realize I don't have a chance no matter how hard I try. It honestly would be great to serve under the king and live in the interior, but people who deserve that are people with great skills. My self-confidence lowers everytime I see you and the others out there and trying your hardest. Jean, you're made to be living in the interior. You're made to serve under the king. You're skills are leadership-like (is that even right? Sorry I should have warned minor ooc). Maybe I'll end up in the Scout-mmph?!"
I grabbed him by his shirt and pulled him into a kiss. It took him a few moments to respond, but he finally relaxed against my body and moved his lips against mine.
After a bit of kissing, we pulled away and leaned our foreheads against each other. "Don't say you're not as strong as us. Because if you work hard enough, you'll be even stronger. Do you understand me?"
"Y--yeah..I do now."
Hehe...okay... I think this was okay for my first... despite of all the puns...
Eren: Oh my Wall Maria...the puns...
Me: They weren't THAT bad...were they?
Levi: You made me look like I wanted to take a dump...
Me: ...I'm so sorry....
Until next time!!!
