"Hey Armin! How's it going?" Jean yelled, flinging his arm around the blonde haired student. Armin grinned at him.
"You finally over your trauma of pissing Ackerman-senpai off?" He asked. Jean shuddered.
"Dude, don't remind me. He glares at me every time I go near jerkwad. How could he possibly think that I'm targeting Eren?"
"I mean, he did find you on top of Eren," Armin laughed.
"Aw shuddup. It's not I wanted to be there. Eren fell and brought me down with him but no matter how many times I say that, he always growls at me. Growls. Who does that?" Jean asked. "Besides, unlike those two, I much prefer girls. They've got hair that smells good and their so soft. Or at least, I think they're soft. Softer than boys anyway. And the bigger their boobs, the better," Jean said. "But, I could always go for Mikasa. Sure her boobs aren't the biggest, but she's so pretty and cool and badass, and her hair smells soooo good."
Armin rolled his eyes and tried to ignore the pang in his chest. For the past two years that he'd known Jean, he had a crush on him. Eren was at home sick and Mikasa was absent to take care of him, so some jerks had decided it would be fun to harass him. Jean had come running and yelling and shoved them away from Armin and just like that, he fell heads over heels. It was a silly reason really, but it had meant something to Armin. Besides Eren and Mikasa, Jean had been the first person to stand up for him.
Unfortunately, Jean never noticed his feelings and instead of losing their friendship, Armin had decided to keep his feelings to himself. As long as he was by Jean's side, it would be enough. Or so he thought. It was getting harder and harder to stay quiet. He wanted Jean to look at him the way Jean looked at Mikasa. Eren and Levi's relationship only made him want more.
Nobody knew that Armin was gay. He'd never felt anything for girls and he'd known from a young age that he wasn't like most boys. In order to stifle his urges and stay away from people who go to his school, he figured out how to make a fake ID and used it to sneak into gay bars. He hooked up with people he could find that were closer to his age, or he tried to at least. He still had yet to lost his virginity. At the most, he could kiss and touch, but the minute someone tried to put it in, he ran.
The last guy he was with, hadn't been so understanding. He still plagued Armin with texts and calls and had even shown up at his place the other night. It was getting out of control, but no matter what Armin said, he could not get the guy to leave him alone. If this continued, he worried he might have to take it to the cops.
"Armin!" Jean said, waving his hand in front of the blonde's face. Armin jerked back and lost his balance as a result.
"Whoa!" He yelled, windmilling his arms. Jean laughed and quickly steadied him.
"Sorry, sorry. Where'd you go?"
"Huh?"
"You had your worried thinking face on," Jean explained. "Y'know, the one where your eyebrows furrow and your whole face looks pinched." Armin blinked. Jean noticed his different facial expressions? His heart sped up at that and he did his best to act normal.
"Just thinking about this person who won't leave me be," he shrugged. He was always horrible at lying so he learned how to lie while not lie at the same time. Jean nodded.
"Well if you need me to beat someone up, just let me know!" He yelled.
"Oi horseface!" Both of them turned as Eren tackled Jean. Armin watched with raised eyebrows as both of them starting fighting for absolutely no reason whatsoever. Levi-senpai soon came up and inclined his head towards Armin before barking, "Oi! Shitty brat! Hurry up or you'll be late!" Eren quickly picked himself up.
