Worried | Jearmin Fanfiction

Chapter Seventeen

Armin spent the next few months refusing to leave Eren's side. He was just as clingy as he used to be, before he made other friends.

Everyone was fine now and had been discharged from the hospital quarters. Eren and Armin were laying in their beds next to each other.

Jean was so annoyed by the sleeping arrangements. Stupid Jaeger got to sleep next to the adorable and sweet little Armin and he had to deal with Connie's sleep talking. Then it hit him.

Does Armin like Eren?

There was always this certain rumour among the cadets that Eren and Armin were way too close. Jean even called Armin creepy for clinging to Eren all the time, but he didn't mean it.

Jean watched Armin sleeping soundly next to Eren.

There's no way Armin likes Eren, right? Eren's just his little comfort blanket, nothing more, right?

He couldn't wrap his head around it. He knew Armin liked boys, everyone knew Armin likes boys. Sometimes him and Armin would just be talking without even realising they were flirting.

Eren sat up and looked at Jean. "Why are you staring at him like that?"

Jean shook off his trance, "Oh, I was just staring into space..."

"Are you jealous?"

"H-huh?"

"Look Jean, he's my best friend. Hell, for years, he was my only friend. Of course I love him, but he's just a close friend. I'm not trying to steal him from you. Just treat him right and we won't have a problem. Got it?"

"O-Oh Yeah.."

"If I find out you're mistreating him you're in deep shit, horseface..."

Jean usually hated that name but he was so busy daydreaming about his love he couldn't even think of a comeback.
