jean kirstein x f!reader / modern au / slow burn Spring break with six of your favorite people at your aunt Hange's beach house was supposed to be an escape from the academic burnout you have been facing in silence. But when you find yourself unexpectedly sharing space, secrets and pinky promises with the one person who's been drifting from the group, you realize that you are not the only one trying to outrun something. He slows your reckless nature. You shake up his carefully constructed world.

Jean Kirstein has no interest in girls. He'd tried dating and found himself often bored before the end of the evening. Competing for captain of The University of Trost's lacrosse team, there is no shortage of women available to him but he'd rather be on the field. Unfortunately for him, it's the off season. (Y/N), however, found herself feigning ignorance about her desire to love deeply and be loved even deeper. After her first day at college, her hopes for the school year diminished greatly until she grew to know Jean. ----------------- This is a slow burn. A sloooooooow burn.

Stepping into a new part of your life, sorrows from your past that were drowning you - disappeared. A change to start over, what you needed. You fell straight into a tight knit friend group, who welcomed you. You promised yourself, and others, that you wouldn't let yourself get sucked into the depth and abyss of Eren. It was an easy mistake for many, but not for you. Yet, in times of tenderness & vulnerability, you collided close to him, and so did he to you. He was damaged, hurt. Wounds that felt like only you could heal him from. You and him mirrored one another, it was like destiny - set for you in the stars and the ground. But was it all worth it in the end? ─ What starts as a rivalry between the two of you, blossoms into two paths intertwining into one. ────── all characters owned by hajime isayama eren x !fem reader, modern au/college au, slow burn this story involves smut, eating disorders, anorexia, self harm, drug use and addiction, homophobia, domestic violence, suicidal ideation and action, alcoholism, sexual abuse/rape, depression, anxiety, ptsd, religious trauma ➵ check all trigger warnings at the start of each chapter : cover art by ni23ku on twitter
