some very ooc angsty/fluffly/steamy soukoku fic c': (somehow this 600 word oneshot turned into this sad excuse for a 10k word fanfic) WARNINGS/TRIGGERS: mentions of suicide, self-harm, strong language, drinking, smoking and sex (it's no smut though...)

25 year old Jean Kirstein took up a job at the a fairly local, warn down coffee shop called The Maria Cafe. 18 year old Armin Arlert moved into town a few weeks ago and was still learning the basics of the place. One day he wandered around his neighborhood to stubble upon a cute, little coffee shop called The Maria Cafe. Over time the two began to spark up conversation about the weather. Poor Armin, after having his heart violently ripped out and shredded to pieces, he falls for this tall, adorable cashier. Jean, however, doesn't particularly take notice of the little blonde's feelings. Since they were basically best friends now, Armin and Jean spent the night at an old apartment building complex, drinking and daring one another. Until day break, however... WARNING: There is mentioning of self harm and possible suicide. So if you are sensitive to either, do not read. CONTAINS YAOI: Which is boy x boy. If you need anymore clarification it means that this story is about two gay guys. So if your homophobic, or are uncomfortable with the idea, please close out of this description and continue with your day. Thank you :)

Everyone has a story to tell, for me, this was just the beginning, and it all started with him. The boy with the emerald eyes had me captivated with every breath he took. With every gaze I stole from him, he was stealing my heart without even realizing it. There's no stopping what's to come. All I know is this, we all have an ending in our story. Whether that's to be the hero who saves the princess or to be the lost boy, never to find his home again. Which ever ending we have, I only know this, I wouldn't mind if Eren was mine. This is a love story about two college boys who just happen to find love on the train ride to Almost Normal. Warning: In later chapters of this story there will be triggers, mild smut, swearing, self harm, and depressed characters.

In the early 23rd century, reports of an elusive shadowed figure killing relentlessly is all the media is talking about. They call it the 'Shadowstrike' and he saved my life. A year and a half ago my best friend Armin Arlert was kidnapped right in front of me. I assumed he was dead until the day I saw him under a dark hood and taking out a group of thugs who were trying to capture me. I didn't want to believe it but after he revealed his face, despite his new demonic-like appearance, I knew he was the Shadowstrike. He was part of a gene mutation experiment that changed his DNA structure to make him into what people are calling a 'monster' and he's not the only one. For some reason these people who did this to Armin are after me. Not wanting me to endure the same fate as him, Armin has been dedicating this past year to protecting me and finding out who did this to him. My safety is his highest priority and finding the person who turned Armin into a science experiment and reverse it is mine. ___________________________________________________________________________________ WARNING!

This AU fan-fiction is a rough draft of the novel's story line. I have decided to use the characters from the 'Attack On Titan' universe to aid me in my story structure. So the story does belong to me but characters, places etc. belong to Hajime Isayama. This will be a long fan-fiction as it is supposed to be a full-length novel so if you don't like reading long stories, this may not be the thing for you. I would really appreciate any feedback you would like to give me as it would help a lot in the initial story. I hope you enjoy.)
