Chapter 4: It's Nothing New
Notes:
Hello people! sorry this chapter didnt come out sooner ive just been busy an stuff... Well anyway i hope you guys like it!
I can smell the fresh forestry scent of something like Pine trees and… alcohol? I'm not really sure where or what it's coming from but I'm loving it. I snuggle my nose into this pillow I'm hugging but I can feel… clothes? This isn't a pillow. I run my hand up and down this object, it has Hair and skin. Then, It hugs me back and I do an uncalled for squeal. I finally open my eyes and its… Jean!
I'M HUGGING, JEAN! WHY AM I HUGGING JEAN?
I thought I went in my room to go to sle- Oh yeah, now I remember. He told me to sleep with him.
"Um, Jean?" I whisper, trying to pull away from his hug. My legs are tangled in his. He's hugging me really tight and my face is in his chest. "Mmm, five more minutes, Marco." He says sleepily. "Um, o-okay then". I try and calm myself down. I'm really hot due to the fact that he's hugging me really tight and that I'm blushing. He snuggles his face in my hair and I try so hard not to make any noise. "You smell really good.". "U-um, thank you, Jean." I say, trying not to sound embarrassed.
I try and move my leg that's in between Jeans when I feel a bulge on his crotch. "Um, Jean?!" I say loud enough for him to know what I'm talking about. "Ah, shit!" he gets up and jumps off the bed and hurries directly towards the bathroom.
Did he just have a boner!? While sleeping with me?! No, that can't be right… Right?
I hear the shower go on.I'm finally able to move, as I sit up on the edge of the bed, my feet touching the floor, I realize that I'm still wearing this maid dress. "Dammit."I say out loud, putting my elbows on my knees and resting my head in my hands. Thank god its Saturday. I start to remember what had happened last night.
Me and Jean went to the party, we drank, we played spin the bottle or seven minutes, something like that… he kissed me.
WAIT, HE KISSED ME! Fuck… okay… what else happened.
Reiner kissed me and long enough for me to wear this stupid dress. I gave a Lap-dance to Ymir. I'm pretty sure I'm not gonna hear the end of that. Um, they had a water balloon fight, I got slapped on the ass plenty of times, Jean got drunk, He hugged me while on the couch, Armin got high, Then, we came home and slept together.
Does he even remember the kiss? I highly doubt it. He was drunk so it's pointless to hope he actually remembers the kiss.
After a while the shower goes off. I hear Jean open the door to his room that I'm still in with this maid dress on.
This is gonna be hella awkward, Marco Bodt. Get ready.
Jean enters the room with only a towel wrapped around his waist, his hair and body still wet with water dripping down to his torso and down to his waist disappearing into his towel.
Fuck, he's hot.
Jean looks up at me with a surprised look on his face that looks like he's wondering why the hell am I still in his room. I quickly turn my head and stare at the floor as my face turns red from embarrassment. "Oh, Marco." Jean says closing the door behind him and walking past me to his dresser. I don't reply. "Look, I'm really sorry for having you know…. Uh, Morning wood.". "U-uh, i-its okay." I choke out. "And I notice your still wearing that maid outfit. Are you really trying to get me hard, Marco?" Jean says jokingly. "Wait, What!" I yell out in embarrassment. "No, its not like that!". "I know, Marco. I was just kidding calm down." He laughs putting on Black boxer-briefs, dark blue jeans, and a grey T-shirt.
I stand up and head towards Jeans bedroom door. "EEP!" Jean just slapped me on my ass. "Hey! What was that for?" I ask, putting my hands on my ass, turning my head to look a Jean with my flushed face. "Everyone else did that last night and I never got the chance to… I think. So, I decided I do it right now before that dress comes off."
"Hmph." I pout and walk out of Jeans room and into my own to grab some clothes before I go take a shower. I walk out of my room and into the bathroom. I turn on the shower and I take off this annoying dress and other clothes and hop into the shower.
When I'm done with the shower I hop out and dry myself off and put on my clothes, white boxer-briefs, Blue Jean, and regular white T-shirt. I head out the bathroom and throw the clothes I had on from earlier in the basket where I have my other dirty clothes.
I'm gonna have to get that maid dress clean and back to Ymir soon.
I start walking to the kitchen when I see Jean cooking breakfast? I take a seat at the table and rest my arms on it. I start to wonder why he's cooking breakfast.
"Hey, Marco? How many eggs do you want?". "Uh, two please." I say happily twiddling my thumbs together. "Jean? Why are you making breakfast?" I ask, looking at the back of head. "I don't really know. I guess since I'm hungry I decided to cook breakfast and I'm not the only one who lives here, so…" He replies, turning off the stove and putting eggs on two plates with forks. He grabs the plates and brings mine to the table in front of me. "Thank you, Jean!" I smile up at him. I can see a little blush on him "Uh, yeah no problem." He sits at the other end of the table eating. I start to eat as well.
"Jean! This is really good! I didn't know you could cook so well!" I say stuffing more food in my face. "Its only eggs." Jean replies in a low voice. "Yeah! The best eggs I've ever had!" I exclaim, finishing my food. "You really think so?" He asks looking surprised. "Dude, I know so!". "Thank you, Marco!" He says smiling. "Hey, what time is it by the way?" I ask.
"Uh, 11:30 Am.". "Oh wow. I wonder how Armin is.". "Why?" Jean asks looking at me. "Oh yeah, um, because he was high last night when I last saw him.". "WHAT! ARE YOU SERIOUS?" Jean yells. "Uh, yeah, he said that Connie gave something to him to smoke.". "Aw, fuck Connie. Ruining Armins head." Jean says as he gets up and puts both of our plates in the sink.
"… Hey, Marco… Did I do anything weird to you last night?" Jean asks facing away from me and still towards the sink. I laugh a little "Define weird.". "You know like kiss you or somethin'…". "Uh, Yeah… but it was part of the game we were playing so you kinda had no choice.". "WHAT! I am so sorry, Marco!" he says running up to me. "Its fine, really, you don't have to apologize." I say putting my hands up in defense. "No, really Marco, I'm really so-". We hear knocking at the front door.
"Hey! Open up!". "Yeah! I'm starving!". It's Connie and Sasha. I get up to go answer the door. As I open the door Sasha pushes her way through the door and to the kitchen immediately. "HI, JEAN!" I hear Sasha yell out. "Hey, what's up Marco?" Connie asks, making his way through the door. "Uh, nothing much." I say, closing the door behind us. "Hey you asshole! I heard you gave Armin some weed last night!" Jean says walking up to Connie. "Eh, heh, Yeah sorta." Connie says rubbing the back of his own head. Sasha is looking through our refrigerator for food. "You asshole!" Jean says putting his fist up looking like he's about to punch Connie. "Jean! No!" I yell out trying to hold Jeans arm down from hitting Connie. "Hey, at least I wasn't holding on to Marco and saying he was 'my maid'.". Jean looks at me with the most surprised face. "I did that?". "Uh, yeah kinda." I say looking away from his face, blushing. "What! I asked if I did anything weird!". "Well…"
"Yeah, and the way you were grabbing on to him and rubbing up against him. Did he tell you all that, Jean? Probably not, it looked like Marco was liking it." Connie says walking to the kitchen.
THAT FUCKING ASSHOLE! I WAS NOT LIKING IT! Well I kinda did but I couldn't help it!
"I did all that Marco?". "Yeah, sort of…" I reply while rubbing that back on my neck. We stayed in silence for a while which felt like forever.
"YOU GUYS DON'T HAVE ANY FOOD!" Sasha whined out walking back to the living room where me and Jean are, breaking the silence. "What! You just ate before we got here!" Connie yells out, walking behind Sasha. "We do. You just gotta cook it." Jean replies. "That takes forever! And I'm still hungry" Sasha complained. "Lazyass." Jean says. "Well, Lets all go out for ice cream!" Connie says. "HECK YEAH!" Sasha Yells out, walking out the door with Connie walking behind her. "Hey, you guys comin' or not?" Connie asks. "Yeah, I guess." Jean says putting on his shoes and walking out behind Connie. I do the same and walk right next to Jean.
We start to walk around the campus trying to find an ice cream shop. "GAAH! Where is it! I saw it around here the other day!" Connie yells out trying to look for the ice cream shop. "Yo Connie, are we lost?" Jean asks. "No! we're not lost!". "We better not be lost! I'll beat you!" Sasha yells out to Connie. "AHA! FOUND IT!" Connie yells out. There it is "Titans Best Ice Cream". "YAY!" Connie and Sasha both yell out and run into the ice cream shop, me and Jean walk right behind them. "Oh, Annie! You work here!?" Sasha yells out, walking up to the first front counter, disturbing all the other customers that are now staring at us. Annie looks at us with a bored, scary face she always has on. "Oh, its you guys. Yeah, we work here.". "We?" Jean asks. "Me, Reiner, Bertholt, and Eren.".
Reiner!
"Are you serious? Eren actually works here!" Jean says chuckling. "Yeah I work here you assho-" Eren was cut off by Bertholt putting his hand on Erens mouth stopping him from finishing his sentence. "Eren, we're still working." Bertholdt says, removing his hand and picking up a package and walking to the back room with it. "Dude your hands are sweaty! That's gross!" Eren yells back to Bertholt. "You try and pick up heavy packages all day!"
Reiner comes out the back room door and walks up to lean on the counter next to Annie. I immediately turn my head to stare at the floor trying not to make any eye contact with Reiner. "Hey." Reiner says greeting us with a smile. "Anyway, we're still working so you guys gonna buy Ice cream?" Annie asks.
Sasha's the first one to place in her order "Yeah! I'll get a Orange Sherbert ice cream cone please!".
"I'll get a Pistachio ice cream cone." Connie says.
"Um, and a Cookies n' cream ice cream in a cup please." Jean says.
"You Marco?" Jean asks looking back at me causing me to look up at Jean.
"Oh yeah um, I'll get Strawberry Ice cream in a cup as well, Please." I say looking at Annie.
"Alright, One Orange Sherbert ice cream cone, one Pistachio ice cream cone, one Cookies n' cream in a cup and a strawberry ice cream in a cup, comin' right up!" Reiner says happily.
"C'mon Armin." a voice that sound familiar comes from the front door of the store. It's Mikasa, she's dragging Armin into the store with her. "Whaaa! Hi Mikasa! Hi Armin!" Sasha yells out and hugs Mikasa. "Oh, you guys are here too. Hello." I glance at Jean and he's blushing while staring at Mikasa.
Gosh…
"Hey, Orange Sherbert." Reiner says holding the ice cream.
"Oh! Right!" Sasha runs up to the counter and grabs her ice cream from Reiner. "Mikasa, I'm still tired." Armin says, While hugging Mikasa.
"Pistachio."
"Yeah, Thanks Reiner." Connie grabs the Ice cream from Reiner and walks up to Mikasa and Armin. I lean back on the counter patiently waiting for my ice cream.
"Hey, Armin you alright, buddy?" Connie asks chuckling a little. "Of course he's not alright you idiot. His body is freaking fragile when it comes to that stuff." Mikasa quickly snaps at Connie.
Wow, she's kinda pissed at Connie, huh.
"Hey, why you so quiet?" Annie randomly asks. "Uh, oh." I turn around to face her. "No reason, really.". "Really? Cause it looks like there is a reason." Annie says.
"Cookies n' cream." Reiner calls out putting the cup with ice cream on the counter and goes back to getting my ice cream.
"Oh yeah, thanks." Jean says grabbing his ice cream and stands next to me.
For some reason I feel useless here. I don't know why, like I have no business doing here.
"Strawberry." Reiner hands me my ice cream and gives me a really nice smile. I suddenly feel kinda happy now.
"Thank you, Reiner." I say smiling at him. "No problem, Marco.". "Hey, you wanna hang out sometime?" I ask him. From the corner of my eye I see Jean look at me. Reiner laughs a little. "Uh, yeah sure. How bout today after I get off of work at like 5. That sound good?". "Yeah, sounds great!" I say happily. "Hey, Eren! My shifts over." Annie yells out. She walks to the back room and Eren comes out. "Yeah okay… Hey why you guys so quiet?" Eren asks us as he reaches the counter we're at. "Shut up, Jaeger." Jean snaps at him. Eren leans in closer to Jean.
"Look I'm at work right now okay and I don't need your bullshit." he whispers. "Hey guys, chill out, okay." Reiner says. "Be quiet, you're the one flirting with customers." Eren says back. I blush, staring at my ice cream.
He's not flirting with me… no, no, that's not true.
"Look, its better than fighting with one.". "Wait so you are flirting with him!?" Eren says surprised. I look back up at all of them. Jean and Eren look surprised at Reiner. "EREEEN!" a voice from behind us yells out. "Oh, hey what's up Armin? ". "I'm tired and my head hurts!" Armin whines, reaching to the counter and leaning on it.
"I'm outta here." Jean walks toward the front door. Sasha and Connie are still talking to Mikasa now sitting at a table. "Ah, Jean wait." I run up next to him waling out the door. "See you at 5, Reiner!" I yell out before exiting the door with Jean.
We start walking on the path back to our dorm. Jeans quiet, I wonder why. He's never really the quiet one, but when he is quiet there's something bothering him. "Hey, we haven't slept together like that in a long time now, huh?" Jean suddenly asks.
Yeah, we use to sleep together in high school, but that was whenever he got rejected or cheated on or broke up with one of his girlfriends. He always came to me whenever he got dumped or something and that's probably why he messes with them now. I didn't mind and I still don't. Jean is different and is unlike any other person I know. He's a really good friend and I'm pretty sure that's all we can be. Jean's straight and is into girls. I don't think he knows I'm gay, I mean I have gone out with girls but they never lasted long. I still love Jean and I think I always will no matter what, I just really hope that some day we can be more than just friends but that may never happen.
"Uh, hello? Marco? You still there?" Jean is waving his hand in front of my face. How long have I been quiet. "Huh, oh yeah, we haven't slept like that." I scratch my cheek with my finger. "I liked it. Besides the part where I um… you know.". "Oh yeah, yeah, its okay…" I laugh a little. "Okay?". "Well, I mean you cant really help it when that stuff happens.". "Oh yeah, right…"
"Would you like to, uh you know… sleep together again sometime?". I turn my head at jean in surprise. He's staring at the floor and blushing. "Um, uh, I don-". "No you know what you don't have to answer that it was a stupid question anyway, sorry." He said rubbing the back of his head. "No, Jean, I really don't mind sleeping with you again." I say without thinking. "Really?". "Yeah, I felt comfortable sleeping with you.". "Wow, Marco. I'm happy." He smiles at me, I give him a smile back.
We eat our ice cream. The rest of the way home is quiet.
We finally get to our dorm, and we walk up the stairs to go our dorm room. Jean opens the door and we enter the room. We go to the kitchen and throw our empty ice cream cups away.
I look at the clock and its already 3:40pm.
What am I gonna do until 5.
I walk out into the living room and sit on the couch. Jean walks in front of the T.V, and crouches down to search through the little cabinet the T.V is on. "Hey, Marco. You wanna watch some scary movies?". "Uh, Sure." I say, sitting upright. Jean is searching through the movies. "Alright! We got The Grudge, The Ring, Paranormal Activity 1, Saw, um, Halloween, and Carrie. Which one you wanna watch?"
"Um, lets watch the first one you said.". "The Grudge?" Jean asks holding up the dvd to show me. "Yeah that one!". "Nice good choice." Jean says turning on the T.V and Xbox and placing the disk in the tray. He gets up, grabs the controller and sits down right next to me. "Have you ever watched this movie before?" Jean asks while starting the movie. "Uh, no. I heard its really good though." I say. "And its hella scary so get ready Marco."
By the time I knew it I was already screaming and cuddled next to Jean holding his arm tight. "This movie is scary, Jean!" I whine out. "You want me to stop it?". "No!" I say, to stubborn to stop watching the movie. Jean laughs a little. "What's so funny." I ask, pouting and looking at him, still holding his arm. "Nothing its just tha-" Jean looks at his phone that's vibrating next to him and grabs it. He seems to be reading a text message.
"Who is it?" I ask curiously. "Oh it's Hannah." I immediately let go of his arm and look down. "She's been having some relationship problems and apparently she wants me to go over and comfort her but we all know how that ends up." Jean says laughing. "Oh…". Jean gets up from the couch and walks towards the door. "I wont be back until later tonight, okay." He says grabbing his Jacket. "Okay… Bye, Jean." I turn off the Xbox and the T.V. "Alright, bye. See you later." He says walking out the door.
He always leaves… He always goes to someone else…
So do you, Marco. You always run to Reiner and you are gonna go run to him today right? You're no different.
"…Its different, I swear!" I grab my head with my hands, trying to shut the voices in my head up.
Once they stop talking I grab my phone out of my pocket and look at the time.
4:45pm
I get up from the couch and walk towards the door, grabbing my Jacket and walking out the door and walking out to the campus. I start walking back to the ice cream shop we were at earlier.
After a while I find the shop again and I see Reiner walking out the door. "Hey!" I say as I run up to Reiner. "Hey, Marco." He smirks and hugs me by my waist and I hug him around his neck. I lean back to look at him. He kisses me and opens up my mouth a little with his tongue and slips in his tongue, moving everywhere. I don't resist and kiss him back wanting some sort of comfort or to at least drown my emotions from Jean. He lets go of me, releasing the kiss and just wraps his arm around my waist. "Alright, Lets have some more fun." He says and we start walking back towards the dorms. I only nod and keep on walking.
Yeah it's totally different, Marco.
