Three days after the whole skinny dipping incident, Jean was sick with a cold. So, Levi and I decided to visit him and keep him company.

I had come out as gay to them yesterday, both seemed excited. Levi yelling about how his gaydar was always right, to witch I had rolled my eyes.

I currently, was sitting on the ground by Jean's bed. Levi was on Jean's desk, lying on his stomach, and Jean was in bed covered up.

"Ugh, why doesn't anyone love meeeee?" Groaned Levi, flopping down onto the desk.

I cocked my head at him.

"I just want someone to date me, and fuck me."

"Fuck you?"

"Yes, I bottom."

Jean cocked his head at that, eyes a bit wide. "You bottom?"

"Yeah, you got a problem with that?" Challenged Levi.

"No, not at all."

My phone went off. I looked down, eyes widening when I saw who the message was from.

From: Eren Yeager

Subject: Finally got international coverage!

Message: ayyye

I looked up at Levi, and smiled. "Hey, Levi."

He looked up at me.

"I know someone who's been in love with you for six years."

Levi's eyes widened, and he kind of stumbled off the desk. Grabbing me by the shoulders and shaking me playfully. "Tell me!"

I giggled. "You know that brunette guy I use to hang out with at the diner? Eren?"

Levi nodded. "Yeah, the cute one."

I smiled, laughing. "It's him."

Levi's eyes widened. "Woah, someone cute likes me."

Jean snorted, rolling his eyes. Also moving closer to us, and at my phone. "Is that him texting you?"

I nod, answering Eren.

Jean smirked, yanking my phone from my hands. I yelped, trying to get it back.

Reply: Armin Arlert

Subject: this is Armin's friend Jean

Message: so, I heard you are in love with Levi Ackerman.

Eren: Oh yes, he's hot as fuck.

Armin(jean): He bottoms, ya know (;

Eren: Really?... Holy shit.

Levi's face flushed, yanking the phone from Jean's hands. Reading over the messages, he groaned. "Oh my god."

I laughed, enjoying the show and Levi's embarrassment. Shaking my head as Jean asked Eren if he'd ever had sexual fantasies about Levi, now acting as if he had given the phone back to me.

Eren: Oh yeah, Armin. I've had several.

Armin(Jean): Describe the kinkiest one.

It was a while, before my phone went off again. A large, descriptive paragraph about Eren's "50 shades of grey" remake starring Levi and him appearing ony phone. Levi was the only one that read it, his eyes where wide and he was flushed down to his neck.

"Oh my god... That's really hot..." He mumbled by the end of it. "Fucking give me his number, holy crap."

I laughed quietly, writing Eren's number on Levi's hand. Taking my phone back, I started a new conversation with Eren. He told me some stuff about Japan, and what he and Mikasa where up too. I told him and Jean, and how I had become friends with Levi. Which he freaked out to, going into fanboy mode.

I laughed at his antics, and and sure enough. Two minutes later Eren texted me.

Eren: HOLY FUCK! LEVI FUCKING ACKERMAN TEXTED ME AND SAID I WAS CUTE!

Armin: congrats, man xD

I looked over Levi's shoulder, looking at the casual conversation going on. Talking about there interests, and finally, Eren asked Levi to go on a Skype date with him.

Levi had a slight blush on his face as he typed out his response, which was yes.

"Levi, don't have Skype sex with him anywhere around here." Jean joked, to witch he got hit in the face with a pillow.

Levi held up his phone, taking a picture of himself flipping off the camera. Sending it to Eren.

"What was that for?" I asked curiously.

He shrugged. "He wanted a contact pic."

I nodded, and heard a ding, a picture of Eren doing a stupid face appeared. Levi shook his head, setting it as Eren's contact photo.

I smiled at Levi, who was smiling down at the phone as he and Eren continued to text. Eventually, I crawled into the bed with Jean. Bored, and wanting to talk.

"Hi."

"Hello."

We stared at eachother for a while, I felt my cheeks heat up a little as he moved ever so closer. He put a hand over mine, and looked into my deeply.

"I know." He said.

"Huh?..."

"I know you cut."

I froze, eyes wide. Levi also looked up, frowning a bit and putting down his phone after telling Eren bye.

"And I don't think of you any differently, Levi doesn't either."

I felt the tears form, staring into Jean's hazel eyes, Terrified. What else did they know? Did they know about the abuse? Did they know about the bullying? My suicide attempts? My mother?

I finally registered that Jean was hugging me, and that I was sobbing. Jean was muttering soothing things into my ear, as he rubbed my back. Pulling me into my lap and cuddling me close.

I sobbed harder, shaking in his arms as he rocked me. Levi got up and put a hand on my shoulder, also trying to say things to calm me down.

"I-I have so many problems..." I whispered. "Y-you shouldn't have to d-deal with me..."

Jean shook his head, hugging me closer. Nuzzling my hair. "No, it's okay... Armin, we're your friends..."

"Y-You shouldn't be."

"But we want to be, Armin."

"But, I have so many problems and-"

Levi stood up, walking in front of us. "We all have problems, Armin."

I looked at him. "You cut, Jean's dad is most Likely a horse-"

"Hey!"

"-and I'm a gay athiest born on Christmas. But the point is, that we are all united by our problems. Fate brought us together, because we are lame ass bitches that are hated by everyone else."

I sniffled, laughing weakly.

"Not only are we lame ass bitches. But we are also GAY lame ass bitches. Feared by Christians, and popular people all around the world."

I wiped my eyes, and Jean snorted softly.

"So, today. We stand together. United by our flamboyance, and our amazing sense of fashion."

I laughed quietly, cuddling closer to Jean.

"The point I'm trying to get to is, that we are all gay, we are all lame, we are all hated, and we are honestly just a huge waste of space. But, we should take pride in annoying the shit out of the normal, striaght people. Because no one can make them more bitchy and twist there panties up tighter than us."

That's when me and Jean lost it, bursting into laugher, falling back.

"O-oh my god..." Jean laughed, holding his stomach.

"There are also three of us, which means we are a trio, also, we can make a triangle and become the gay Illuminati."

I laughed harder, as Levi then proceeded to put us in triangle formation. "Yes! Bow down homophobic bitches! We are the gay Illuminati! The new gods!'

Jean cocked his head, looking at Levi for a long, long time. "But... You're an athiest."

Levi glared at him playfully. "Don't ruin this for me!"

Jean laughed, and I rolled my eyes at Levi's antics. Giggling as he and Jean got into a play fight on the ground. I wiped the last few tears from my eyes, and smiled at my friend's.

Yeah, I think I'm going to be okay...
