"Jean?! What the hell happened to you?" Marco cried in panic. He had an angry looking bite on his neck that had not been there before. It was still semi fresh as shown by how red and angry it looked. There were the marks of where the teeth had sunken into his flesh, though he could only hope that Jean had not been forced against his will to do anything.
Despite his status as a Beta and not being able to match up to an Alpha, he would always stand up for Jean. He would never let anyone hurt his best friend and get away with it. He knew the dangers that Jean would face as an Omega and he would do everything in his power to make sure none of this worst dreams would come true. That Jean would stay safe until he was consummated with his mate.
Jean blushed, pulling on his hoodie tightly, wanting to hide it from sight. Damn Eren, why did he have to leave it in one of the most obvious places a person could. But thanks to him he wouldn't be going into heat for a while. He could still feel Eren on him, the healing reminded him of the sweet pain of Eren's bite. How much the Alpha had wanted him and how hard he had restrained his desire for Eren to kiss him.
That was what annoyed him the most, his primal urge as an Omega to be held by his mate. The desire to feel the primal sexual connection that only an Alpha and Omega could understand. But those feelings were for Eren Yeager, someone whom he doubted even loved him in that way. Hell, the guy was probably a playboy given his Alpha status and cocky personality.
"Nothing, just leave it be" he muttered. Marco was the type who never let things go if they were serious. Jean had always been careful about being an alpha and the bite mark meant an Alpha had sunk their claws in. Though it would keep away any other Alpha's who picked up on his Omega scent, there were stronger Alpha's who would attempt to take advantage of him.
He had always been aware of the dangers he would face because of his ranking. Which was why he had been taking medicine to repress his heats since he hit puberty, so even when he was around an Alpha even in heat. The effect they had on him and his scents affect on them would not be as strong as it usually would be.
Marco's eyes darkened "It was Eren wasn't it" he replied. For all he understood the strong connection between the two, the guy couldn't have been subtler about it? He was treating Jean like a prize. Teasing him, now marking him and showing up at his work and treating him like a toy. Though he knew that not all Alpha's acted like that, he hated how obnoxious Eren could be about his status.
Jean was his best friend and he had helped protect him for years. He didn't like how Eren was treating Jean. He may have been an Omega and labelled "A bottom feeder" but he still deserved respect. He had a right mind to find Eren himself and punch him square in the face, but for a Beta to attack an Alpha unprovoked. That was way too dangerous and would end up with him being punished for it.
Jean blushed, bowing his head. There was never hiding anything from Marco, he wouldn't let this go. He cupped the bite mark on his neck shyly "Just drop it Marco. At least I won't be going into heat for a while" he muttered. Thanks to Eren marking him he wouldn't be going into heat due to his body recognized that an Alpha had imprinted on him. However, once the bite healed he would be back to using his suppressants.
He could at least thank Eren for the temporary break from his meds, though he was still having a hard time accepting their new relationship as mates. Wishing he could have gotten someone more decent and sweet, male or female. But he knew that there was no changing fate, so he would just have to wait and see what became of their relationship in the future.
Marco frowned and slumped down, despite being a happy go lucky kind of guy. When it came to his friends or loved ones, Marco could become the scariest stone-cold guy you would ever meet. He peered at Jean's neck, the angry marks glowing as if they were on fire. What made him angrier was that Jean would suffer for this more than Eren. He would be teased and made fun of now that his Omega nature was showing.
Beta's never had to worry about being bitten, it was a symbol of marked mating between an Alpha and an Omega. To prevent Jean from being put into danger because of his identity, he would need to cover it up. He then sighed heavily "Let's go to the nurses, you should at least cover it up until its gone. Then you can make up an excuse" he muttered. If it was left capable of being noticed, unwanted attention would follow.
"You did what?!" Armin spat in frustration. What had Eren been thinking? He knew that Jean was Eren's fated mate but what he had done was wrong. In a sense he had forced himself on Jean. It had only been 4 days since the two of them had realized their bond as mates. While Eren was casual about it, Jean on the other had would be freaking out. Eren was being unbelievably selfish about this.
He was doing whatever he wanted and playing all sorts of mind games with Jean instead of being honest about his feelings. It was best he just tell Jean about his crush on him regardless of how embarrassing it was. Teasing him like this for a reaction would get him nowhere and simply create more of a distance between the two of them.
Eren huffed, an air of animosity lingering around him. He hated that Armin was giving him shit for this. He had only been making sure that other Alpha's would know to stay away from Jean. He would stop going into heat until the bite healed, and nobody would bother him. He couldn't risk someone else laying their eyes on Jean and attempting to steal his fated partner.
He had never been good at the mushy stuff, he was better at being seductive and flirty. If he tried to be romantic with Jean he would just look like a damn idiot, he couldn't risk that. Besides, when he looked into those golden brown orbs he felt his heart skip a beat and every instinct in his body want to pin Jean to the ground and kiss him till he couldn't breathe.
Mikasa sighed, she couldn't understand their bond as she was dating a Beta. But she knew what Eren had done was wrong. When it came to your mate it was about controlling yourself. You had to respect the personal space and wishes of them. Though many Alpha's abused their dominance and in return abused Omega's, she knew that Eren was better than that. Which is why she was so upset at him.
Jean was a sweet and gentle person, if not as hot-headed as Eren. However, he had a sense of rationality that Eren seemed to lack. No doubt he would be conflicted about what Eren had done to him. "You should apologize Eren. I know you love Jean and deep down you know what you did was wrong. You need to apologize to him for your actions" she replied in a stern tone. If he didn't do it willingly she would force him to.
Eren growled and glared at Mikasa, his green eyes shiny with frustration and rage. Why did she always have to act like a know it all? It felt like no matter what he did she was always patronizing him. It was fine for her, she was dating a Beta so heat and rivalry was not something she ever had to worry about. She had no idea what kind of pressures he was under.
Mikasa said nothing, her black eyes hard and sharp. Unwavering in her opinion, she knew what Eren had done was wrong. He knew that too and until he admitted that to himself she would not stop scolding him. As his adopted sister, it was her job to keep him on the straight and narrow. She knew that if he hurt Jean in any way even by accident, it would tear him up inside.
The two continued to sit in silence staring at each other, the tension so strong you could feel it in the air. Meanwhile Armin sat shaking between them, wanting to speak up but not daring to disturb either one. Eventually, Eren relented. A heavy sigh escaping his lips, he knew if he didn't she would never let this go. She would make him feel bad until he apologized to Jean for what he had done.
"Fine, I'll go apologize. But I don't see what I did wrong" he grumbled. He wanted to do more than bite Jean, but for now that was all he could do. He didn't want to push him, and it took everything he had to restrain himself around the guy. But he hoped that in the future they could at least have some heated sessions together without the sex. He was desperate to touch his Omega.
A small smile spread across Mikasa's face, though Eren could be a brat he could never ignore his moral compass. He was a good guy deep down, his stubbornness and temper tended to hide it. "Good, I can't be keeping an eye on you all the time. You need to grow up sometime Eren, your 18. Take some responsibility for once, yeah?" she said sternly. For all she loved Eren to bits, she couldn't neglect Sasha or her own life all the time.
Eren clicked his teeth, why did she always have to bring his age into this. He was a teenager, acting rational and mature was not something he knew how to do yet. He wasn't someone who matured as fast as the likes of say Armin or Marco. He had always been the type of guy to think with his heart instead of his head anyway.
She then sighed heavily and got to her feet, her dark hair willowing in front of her face like a curtain. "I have to go, I promised to meet Sasha. But think about what I said Eren" she replied sternly. They had promised to get lunch together and stay over the night. Their busy lives as college students often putting a strain on how often they could see each other.
As she left, Eren slumped in his seat sulkily. He had always been a sore loser ever since he was a kid. But he did know that Mikasa was right, he had never been the kind of guy to think things through. He was a live in the moment kind of guy. Meanwhile Armin simply watched his friend sulk, he had known him since he was a kid. Though he had grown up somewhat, he still had a long way to go before he learned to mellow out.
Jean sat sulking quietly on a bench, staring into the cup of coffee in his hand. He was tired and frustrated. Somehow, he couldn't get Eren out of his mind and what happened that night at his work. He had no idea of what this meant between them, for all he knew Eren could be fucking around with him. They may have been mates, but Eren didn't seem like the kind of guy to take this seriously.
He had never had a relationship with anyone before, boy or girl. He had spent so long pining over Mikasa that he had never had time to think about anyone else. Now that this whole situation with Eren had come up he had no idea of how to feel. Sure, he could appreciate and admit that Eren was a very attractive guy. His deep green eyes, his lightly tanned skin and messy brown hair. Just thinking about it made Jean's cheeks heat.
But he had a shitty personality and he was treating him like a toy. Fucking about with him for the fun of it just because he could. He didn't want that in a mate, he wanted someone who genuinely cared about him. But sadly those kinds of people were the hardest to find, yet he knew he could never fight fate. As much as this frustrated him to no end.
"Jean! Oi, Sulky face!" a loud voice called. She had heard from Mikasa that he was upset about something. But she would not let her best friend feel like shit as long as she was around. As long as she was able to do something to make him feel better and make him forget his troubles, she would be content with that fact.
Jean snapped out of his daze to look up, before he could think he was nearly knocked over by Sasha. Semi curved over the edge of the bench due to the way she had impacted him upon making physical contact with him. Barreling herself at him and pulling him into a hug, luckily not spilling semi hot coffee on him.
Sasha gripped his head in her arms tightly, pressing his face against her chest. Though in the past he had been embarrassed about the way she showed affection, over time it just became normal between them. Sasha had always been a very expressive girl and shamelessly showed affection. Though people had believed them to be a couple in the past. They shared a strong sibling like platonic relationship.
He shifted in his seat and awkwardly patted Sasha on the back, unable to move due to how tightly she was hugging him. Knowing she wouldn't let go until she was done having her moment. When Sasha gave you a hug, you didn't fight it. You just let it happen until she had gotten all of her feelings out and projected onto you.
"Nice to see you too Sash" he replied in a muffled voice. But she wouldn't be his best friend if she didn't greet him in this most awkward and unexpected way possible every time they met. But he admittedly did enjoy them, when he was feeling his worst her hugs had always made whatever problem he had faced at the time so much better.
"Sasha, I think he can't breathe" Mikasa replied calmly. She knew the two had been friends long before she started dating the Brunette. But she trusted Sasha, knowing she was not the type to cheat. Though in the beginning she had been jealous of her other relationships, she had now come to not be bothered by it and even found it amusing.
Sasha blinked and then removed herself from Jean in a panic "Crap, I'm sorry Jean. Its just been so long" she babbled in an apologetic tone. She hoped she hadn't spilled coffee on him or anything. Her appearance now reminiscing a puppy whom had been scolded by their owner for getting too excited around meeting someone new.
Jean smiled weakly "Its ok Sash, good to see you too" he muttered. Since getting into college and her being in a relationship with Sasha, the two of them hadn't been able to hang out as much. The reason he and Marco spent so much time together was due to their dorms being nearby each other. That and the promise he made to Jean's mother to keep an eye on him. That was a promise he would never break.
Sasha straightened up, flashing him her usual dorky smile. Her wavy brown hair tied up in a usual ponytail. Wearing a blue denim button up with no sleeves, a pair of black ripped jeans and black and white ankle converse. She was also wearing a silver ring around her finger that Mikasa had given her shortly after they started dating. She never took it off and kept it close to her always, showing her love for the other girl.
Mikasa approached Jean, immediately able to smell Eren on him. Seeing the hidden red mark under his hood left there by her brother. Her eyes sharpening, he really had done a number on Jean. Now he really had an excuse to apologize. The poor guy must have been terrified when it happened, being attacked randomly by an Alpha and not being able to fight back.
She was wearing a red pleated skirt that reached her upper mid-thigh, a pair of black stockings that reached her knees, a green khaki jacket that reached her butt and a white T shirt with "approach with caution" in black on the front. She too was wearing a matching ring on her finger like Sasha's. She looked as beautiful as always, but Jean had happily accepted she didn't feel the same way. Simply seeing her as a close female friend like Sasha.
Mikasa softened, a frustrated look on her face. She felt so bad about how recklessly her brother had acted. Though she had told Eren to apologize, she couldn't help but feel responsible. She had always kept an eye on him despite living with her uncle because she knew just what kind of antics Eren got up to. But now she felt he may have gone too far.
Jean saw the expression on her face, knowing immediately what was up. He had known her since middle school after all. The main cause of her problems had always been linked to one person in particular "Eren again huh?" he replied. She really was too good to that jackass brother of hers. He didn't know how lucky he was to have someone who cared about him that much.
Mikasa shifted but nodded awkwardly. She bowed her head in shame, annoyed at Eren's actions. "I'm sorry, Eren means well. He's never been good at handling his feelings well" she replied. She knew that Eren had been crushing on him since middle school and had tried to help him out. But over time, his cockiness had gotten the better of him and often got him into trouble.
Jean was stunned, Mikasa had come all this way to see him simply to apologize for Eren? But this had nothing to do with her, sure they were like family. But he was old enough to learn from his mistakes. He bet her uncle was just as annoyed about her babysitting Eren, but given she was 18 now she was old enough to do what she wanted.
Sasha sighed heavily and folded her arm across her chest "Mikasa told me what happened. I swear, I have a mind to chew Yeager out myself" she grumbled. She had always known that Eren had a thing for Jean, but there was such a thing as being subtle and romantic. He had a lot to learn from his cute younger sister. She swore she could eat her up sometimes.
Jean blushed and absentmindedly rubbed the bite mark again. "I… It wasn't that serious. I mean I was surprised, but it could have been worse" he replied awkwardly. At least he didn't take advantage of him. Sure he had been scared at how Eren had been so bold and touched him so familiarly. But the fact that he had not gone through with what he had expected him to had been a relief.
Mikasa sighed, Jean was such a nice guy sometimes it hurt. She could understand why Eren would fall for him. But that way of thinking would get him into trouble, especially as an Omega. "I had a word with him earlier, he'll apologize eventually. He knows what will happen if not" she replied. They had been having arguments since they were kids and he knew that her temper was as bad as her uncles.
Jean blinked, Mikasa had managed to persuade Eren? He had no idea how she did it? Maybe because she came from one of the pure-blooded Alpha clans? Or maybe it was because she was the niece of Levi Akerman? He then gave her a grateful expression "Thanks Mikasa. You're a good friend" he replied. Though he had once held such strong feelings for her he thought he may go insane. He was glad to have her as a friend.
Mikasa smiled and then approached Jean and placed his hand on her shoulder. "Jean, you're my friend. Your Sasha's best friend. I'm not going to abandon you when you need help" she replied. She would always protect the people she cared for with her life, in any way possible. That included the best friends of her significant other as well. They were her family after all, and she had to keep them safe.
Jean headed back to the dorms quietly, seeing Sasha again had put him in a good mood. Her hyperactive playful self always lifted his spirits no matter what troubles came his way. She was like the little sister he never had. As lonely as he had been as a child, the friends he had now made him forget he had ever been alone. He was truly lucky to have them.
To see Mikasa again after all this time and for her to show her concern meant a lot to him. he had always been glad they kept things on good terms as he respected her deeply as a person. But he hated that despite having developed her own relationship and working towards her future. She still tended to chase after Eren, which wasn't fair to her or Sasha whatsoever.
Suddenly, he spotted a figure sitting outside the entrance to the flats where he was staying. Curled up and hunched over near the steps, as if they were waiting for someone to come by. Upon close inspection his eyes widened, a look of utter awe on his face as he saw who it was. None other than the same guy whom had bitten him a couple of days ago outside of his work.
Eren was sat hunched near the steps with a deep-thinking expression mixed with anger on his face. He looked so annoyed that he didn't doubt if anyone so much as looked at him the wrong way he would snap. He sighed heavily and approached the brunette male quietly. Though he was still mixed with many complex emotions after what had happened that night outside of his work. After all, before then the two had barely said a word to each other.
Upon reaching the stairs, he kicked Eren's foot to get his attention. He had learned to approach with caution and yet be abrupt when it came to Eren. As risky as that was to attempt. But should things get heated he was more than capable of standing his own against Eren, status or not. He wasn't going to take any shit from Eren again.
Eren looked up quietly with sharp eyes, but visibly blushed when he saw Jean standing over him. Remembering what Mikasa had said to him earlier and still doubting that he had done anything wrong. What person had ever acted rationally around the person they liked? Nobody that was who, being in love made you do crazy things.
"Mikasa told me you two had a fight" he replied casually. A very one-sided argument mind you which he had coming. But it was best not to mention that, or it would just be fanning the flames. Eren had never been the type to admit he was wrong outright until he had time to stew about it first. He was just that type of guy.
Eren shifted, why would she tell him to apologize if she was just going to speak to him anyway? He hated how she interfered in his life so much, he wasn't a kid anymore god damn it.
Jean smiled to himself in amusement, one thing that hadn't changed in all these years was how Eren sulked. Whenever he was pissed or annoyed about something he would hide and sulk somewhere. "She seems happy with Sasha. I haven't seen either of them so happy before. Seems like they were made for each other" he replied. He'd love to catch up with them both sometime, like old times.
Eren softened, though it was stupid he was often jealous of Mikasa. Because once Jean had been so obsessed with Mikasa that it caused fights between the two. Wishing that Jean could look at him the same way he did her. However, he wouldn't take away Jean's friends no matter how jealous he got. He knew they were fated for each other, but he could never control his emotions. His feelings and frustrations getting the better of him.
Jean rubbed the mark on his neck awkwardly, they couldn't leave things like this. They needed to make up, they were 18 after all. Pissy playground arguments were no longer appropriate. "You want coffee? I was going to relax in my apartment anyhow" he offered. He may have been mad at Eren for what he did. But that did not mean he was not willing to sort things out between them.
Eren looked up quietly and nodded, when frustrated he tended to remain quiet for long periods of time. He tended to stew for a bit before he was ready to speak his mind once more. But when he was around Jean, as frustrated as he got because of his urges. He felt a sense of peace that he hadn't felt before, maybe it was to do with their bond.
Jean sighed and then started up the stairs "You best follow me, unless you plan on sitting here" he replied. It was amazing how much of a kid Eren could act despite being an alpha. No wonder Mikasa worried about him so much. The guy seemed incapable of doing anything without facing some kind of problem or carrying some kind of doubt on his mind.
Eren slid off the edge of the stone wall of the stairs, then started to follow Jean obediently up the stairs. Slowly peering at his figure, his buff form, strong legs, and that ass. yep, he loved Jean's ass. His green eyes gleaming in a predatory way. he would make his feelings known, but he would try to restrain himself this time. Try.
