The kids at the boarding school were called to the LGI(large group instruction) for a brief overview of their day. The longer the teachers talked, the more bored the students got. The more bored the students got, the less they paid attention. Which led to no one paying attention to anything, except Eren was listening. 

He stayed perked up the entire time so he wouldn't miss a thing. 

“And at 12:30 we will have a special visit from a doctor to make sure you all arent sick.” Some lady in the front of the room spoke.

Eren continued to listen and he jotted down some notes on the back of his hand. Soon enough it was 9:30 and everyone filed out of the room. He left last so he could have time to turn on his music after the teacher left. Armin was waiting outside the door by the time he got there. 

“Ready to go?” Armin asked.

Eren nodded and they left for their dorm. On the way they passed by a few people Eren had now called his friends. There was Connie, Sasha, Ymir and Christa, Bertholdt, Reiner, and of course the horserace himself, Jean. Yes Jean was in his dorm with him but Jean is still his friend. 

Once he was back at his dorm, Eren walked into his room and hopped onto his laptop. He opened up a new document and began to write. He stopped when he heard a knock on his door.

“Eren we have to meet in the lounge room since the doctor is coming.” Jean spoke calmly from behind the door.

Eren saved his work and closed his laptop, pulling on a gray Hollister hoodie, he walked outside and smiled at Jean.

“Nice to see you Horseface.” He teased.

“Same to you idiot.” Jean retorted.

Eren stepped into the kitchen and pulled the blender out of the closet. Plugging it in he grabbed the ingredients from his shelf and started piling them inside the plastic pitcher. He stared at the machine and the contents inside for a moment. He just watched as they sat unmoving. Eren reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone, he took a picture and pressed blend.

Jean sat at the bar in the kitchen and watched as Eren stared at the blender. He wondered about the boy, for he knew where he had came from, and what he had done. Though he never judged, he always questioned the brunet’s motives. Jean shook his head, the boy was constantly on his mind. Jean knew in his heart he was gay, but Eren was as well. For he had accidentally told him, involuntarily of course. 

All in good time something special would happen the the boy with two hair tones. Oh how he wished that Eren would show some affection towards him. Though, he sorta does when he talk to Jean every night. The brunet lays his head on Jean’s chest as he rambles on about how free he was when he ran around. Jean treasures these moments, for he knew that one day they would fade and be just a distant memory.

“Jean? Are you alright? Your staring at me.” Eren spoke softly.

Jean looked at Eren’s green orbs, “Im fine, just thinking.”

“Do you want to talk?” The brunet asked.

“Sure.” He outstretched a hand and moved a loose bunch of hair from Eren’s eyes.

His face turned a light shade of pink, and he walked into his room. Jean followed and sat on Eren’s bed. The brunet sat down in front of him and layer down. After much thought Jean realized that Eren might do this because it makes him feel safe. After about a minute Eren took a deep breath and asked an interesting question.

“Jean? Do you like me?” 

Jean was surprised but also knew it was coming. For he knew that Eren had coping issues and that being alone for so long caused this. But for the sake of the boy he knew he couldn't lie.

“Yes Eren, I do like you.” He replied softly.

The boy on his chest closed his eyes and smiled, listening to the steady beat of Jean’s heart. Jean knew he was content and didn't want to change that. 

“How come Eren?”

Eren lifted his head and looked into Jean’s eyes, “Well I kinda, um, well…”

Jean placed his hand on Eren’s brown mop and ruffled his hair. This caused Eren to smile and Jean laughed. 

“I get it, its fine.”

“So will you?”

“Of course.”

Eren’s face lit up and he hugged Jean so tight the taller boy could hardly breath. Jean hugged him back and smiled. The two sat there for awhile like that, of course it wasn't as tight of a hold but it was still nice. 

“Eren why do you enjoy laying on my chest when we talk?” Jean asks the boy.

“Well… I don’t like sitting next to people when I talk about my life because I cant connect with them that way. When I lay on them and feel the beating of their heart I feel the conversation is really connected. Of course I only lay on someone who I trust a lot not to care.” The brunet spews.

“Truth is Eren, it makes a lot of sense. Most people would think that was an excuse to lay on another person. But I think of it as a comfort aspect.” Jean added.

Jean sat up straight and Eren looked up at him. 

“Im going to go order some pizza. Whats your favorite topping?”

Eren thought about it for a moment, “Well I usually get a greek pizza.”

Jean picked up a pen an quickly wrote it down on his hand, as well as what he and Armin usually get. 

“Be right back.” Jean started to walk out the room when he heard Eren from behind him.

“I have a phone that you can borrow. I don’t want you to leave.” The brunet softly spoke.

Jean laughed and walked back over to the big. Eren picked up the phone from his bedside table and passed it to the brown-blonde haired male. Jean ordered the three pizzas and Eren turned on the TV. He flipped it to a movie and they waited for their pizza. When the pizza came Armin brought it in as well as some drinks. They all moved to the couch in Eren’s room and threw some blankets and pillows on it and watched the movie.
