Armin's POV
'I genuinely don't understand why the universe hates me so much but it fucking does! Okay maybe I wanted to stay with Eren and stuff but, I'm nervous and to be honest I'm pretty much looking for someone to blame so yeah, screw you universe...I don't know what I feel for Eren. I feel good enough to want to be around him but bad enough to feel conscious around him... Mind you it has nothing to do with him it's just, I want him to see me at my best. I want to look good in front of him. I want him to compliment, appreciate and value me and sometimes I feel like shit because I don't really know where his head's at and-'
"Armin"
"Huh?"
"Let's go to bed, everyone's already gone to their beds and stuff and I figured I'd watch you like you watched me yesterday lolol... You okay?"
"Yeah! Let's go to my room?"
"Actually, I sleep in there everyday. For positive vibes you know?"
"Yeah haha let's go UwU" I did that to lighten the mood. Worked a little to well if you ask me
We went up to our bedroom and I noticed how different it was. It looked cosier, our things were not there which Eren explained saying they were in his room. This room honestly looked like it had undergone many improvements. The bed was bigger and the mattress was a lot softer than it used to be and I sank right into the spring-less bed which is the best type of bed in my opinion. I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth after all those snacks and I got back and he went in and got back and we kind of just sat there in awkward silence until he asked,
"You're gay right?" Weird question but only because I activate my own gaydar sometimes.
"Yeah I am, You?"
"It's complicated... I'm definitely bisexual but I think I might be pan sexual instead since I don't really care about gender identity but I've never met someone who identified as something other than male or female so its hard to say."
"I'm super gay but, I did have a small tiny crush on Mikasa before I found out I was gay fo- er.. gay" I chuckled but he looked upset.
"When did you start realising you weren't straight?"
"When I caught myself staring at your pants at like 12..." he smiled at me
"Have you liked any other guys at any point?" he's not gonna be pleased...
"NOT AS MUCH AS YOU but, I liked Levi once lol but he knows lol and I kinda liked Mr Kirstein but that stays between us!" Eren chuckled at my outburst and I blushed. For the 69th time this week. I don't understand how fast my mood changes. Even within sentences it just changes like with a statement- it's a little disturbing.
"Why horse face though? Liking Levi and that fine ass is understandable. Not to mention those flawless facial features! No homo but that boy is pretty ho-"
"Yes Eren! The universe is aware that Levi Ackerman is incredibly sexy. Now, to answer your question, his bold attitude reminded me of you and his expression is so unique and as you know, confidence is pretty attractive. He's not over self confident but he's more confident in his words and in his humour and that's pretty awesome. He was everything my awkward ass wanted to be lol so I guess it was more admiration and the same goes for Levi lol" Eren immediately stopped lying down, shot up and he almost shouted,
"LIES! YOU'RE SERIOUSLY TELLING ME YOU FEEL NOTHING SEXUALLY WHEN YOU LOOK AT LEVI? FUCKING NOTHING AT ALL?! I FEEL ATTRACTED TO LEVI, THE LIGHT BULB IS ATTRACTED TO LEVI! FRICKING GOD IS ATTRACTED TO HIS OWN CREATION- SPRINKLED A BIT TOO MUCH FINERY ON THAT BOY..." I wheezed at that outburst and he didn't look ashamed or anything. He shouldn't have but still. Levi is hot. That's true. He's physically a nice thing to feast your eyes on but personally, I'm not attracted to him. Like, if I didn't know him and he kissed me, I would be disgusted and since I met him I've gone on to appreciate him as a person more and more. I don't ever think I had ever been remotely sexually attracted to anyone - apart from Eren. I've just had a really strong mental attraction or semi romantic feelings. But I feel everything you're supposed to feel when I look at Eren. I've already accepted the fact that Eren us probably the only person I'll feel this way about.
I simply replied "No" and waited for him to ask the inevitable question.
'So Armin, what do you feel when you look at me'
'In
3...
2-'
"So Armin, what do you feel when you look at me" I know you to well Eren...
"I think you're can't breathe sexy if that's what you mean however, that comes second to our connection. The one thing I've never had with anyone else - a connection like we have. Obviously due to that, the emotion ties are there and the admiration is there but it's in NO way platonic" He looked extremely satisfied with that answer. So much so that he leaned in closer...
"PFTTTTTTTTTTT HAHAHA CAN'T BELIEVE BLONDIE FANCIED ME AHAHAHA"
"Jean! That's rude!"
They Could Hear Us
I took shelter under the blankets as I tried to mask my embarrassment
Eren's Pov
"Armin... It's not that bad, ignore that meanie! I'll sort him out tomorrow" I cracked my knuckles and he seemed like he was slightly concerned for Jean as he said to me,
"It's okay haha...I'll speak to him, clear the air and, we'll probably laugh about it lol no biggy :p)
"Okie but I low-key wanna kick his ass for entertainment (_)"
"Nuuuu sowee Ewen. I want to continue where we left off even though you're sad"
"AGHHHHHHHHHHHHH CUTIE! Lolol you struggled to fit that connective in though" he had a point. Tried to sound a little sophisticated. Did. Not. Work.
"You try to hard to impress Armin. You put yourself on edge when you try to be the version you think people want and not the version YOU want. I'd be more satisfied seeing the you YOU'D feel comfortable with haha please consider i- mm" I got cut off. Silenced with a kiss. It was just as magical as before and we broke it and we kissed each other on the forehead before going to bed"
"Good night Eren"
"Good night my little coconut"
