Summary:

Although you and your boyfriend Jean have been together for 2 years, his roommate Eren is still a mystery to you…until he isn’t.

Chapter 1: the birds

Chapter Text

You let out a soft whimper, as Jean thrusted his dick into your begging cunt. You bounced on top of him, attempting to match his pace and keep your balance on his twin sized bed.

"Fuck baby I'm gonna cum", he grunted, using both hands to push you down onto his lap. You clenched yourself around him, gaining another grunt of approval.

"Do that again and I won't be able to pull o-" He stopped before he could finish his sentence, pausing as if he'd seen a ghost. You whipped your head around to see what he could possibly be staring at, your eyes were met with his roommate Eren's.

"Oh my fucking God" you screamed, getting up from Jean, grabbing the first articles of clothing you could get your hands on, which ended up being Jean's sweater and your sweats.

Jean jumped out of his bed and quickly slipped on his basketball shorts that were lying on the floor.

You frantically ran past your boyfriend's roommate, who still stood by the door. Without saying another word, you shut the door and ran out of the apartment.

"What the fuck are you doing here? You weren't supposed to be back for another hour." Jean questioned his roommate.

"First off, this is my room too, I can come in whenever I wanna" Eren rolled his eyes, throwing down his backpack in his beanbag chair, next to his desk.

"Second of all, my dad ended up cancelling on me, so I went to the food court and then I decided to come here and take a nap before the game" he took off his shirt and plopped onto his bed.

"I was just about to bust bro" Jean shook his head out of disappointment.

"I don't care, fuck your girl somewhere else, then you won't have this problem" he honked his shoulders.

"Oh shut up, seeing my girl naked was probably the highlight of your month, especially since you've sworn away from women" he used his fingers as quotation marks.

"I only saw her back, I looked away after I realised what was going on" he grabbed his phone, strolling through it.

"Good, because she's mine" Jean jokingly glared over at Eren, before walking to their bathroom.

"She had some nice piercings by the way" Eren shouted.

"You little shit, I thought you said you didn't see anything" Jean shouted from the bathroom.

"Not my fault she turned around"
_________________________

You ran into your apartment, breathing heavily after running from the boys' apartment to yours. With so much going through your mind, you didn't notice your roommates staring at you in confusion.

"Uh, what's up with you?" Sasha asked, walking up to you with caution.

"Eren just caught us fucking in their room" you groaned, remembering the incident that transpired just minutes ago.

"Yikes, I'm surprised you guys hadn't gotten walked in on sooner" Mikasa budded in from the living room couch.

"Fuck, he told Jean he would be gone for another hour" you shook your head out of disappointment.

"I can't believe that just happened to me" you facepalmed.

"Did he see anything?" Sasha questioned, almost amusingly.

"Not that I know of, but it all happened so fast. I picked up Jean's sweater instead of my hoodie." You sighed, walking over to sit on the couch next to Mikasa.

"Well, knowing Eren he probably wasn't even fazed. You don't have anything to worry about" Mikasa attempted to reassure you.

Sasha and Mikasa had been your roommates since freshman year, and you coincidentally started dating one of their bestfriends. They'd known Jean and the other guys since they were kids, but you weren't that close with Eren, so you'd just have to take their word for it. You hoped he didn't feel some type of way about the whole situation.

"Are you going to the game tonight?" Sasha questioned, steering away from the topic, she sat in the chair across from you and Mikasa.

"Um is the sky blue? Of course I am, it's the first game of the season."

"The after party?" She lifted a brow, scooting to the edge of her chair in anticipation.

"Nope, I need to finish up my research for my career class and I have my internship in the morning" you sighed, wanting nothing more than to go to the party, but you had to put your education first.

"Eh, that's understandable, we won't go either if you can't go" Sasha looked over at you with a reassuring smile.

"But I'll be going to the homecoming party next week for sure, this should be the only time I have to go to the clinic on a Saturday" you smiled back at her.

______________________

The game rolled into the fourth quarter. You watched Jean run across the court, his red and white uniform complemented his skin well. He looked good, really good, but for some reason your eyes couldn't stop directing towards his roommate, out of curiosity perhaps.

Eren was the captain of the team, so he was usually the star of the game. However, you never really paid him much attention.

He had tattoos of birds going from his hands up to his shoulders, his eyebrow was decorated with two silver studs and his nose, a silver septum ring. Running across the court, he pushed the flyaways from his manbun out of his face.

You only had brief interactions with him in the two and a half years you and Jean had been together. You guessed it was because he was barely at home when you were at their apartment, or around when you hung out with Jean and his other friends.

Shaking your head, you attempted to turn your focus back onto Jean.

You and Jean had met at freshman orientation and everyone gave out their Instagrams to keep in touch. A few weeks later, your childhood cat passed and you posted about it on your story. Jean slid up to see how you were doing and it lead from there.

"Y/n!" Sasha shouted into your ear, breaking you out of your thoughts.

"What?" You questioned.

"Jean just scored the winning point" she pointed at the score board: 62-59.

Immediately, you jumped up and cheered for Jean, forgetting all about what was keeping you distracted most of the game. It was like Mikasa said, Eren probably didn't care about the incident earlier.

After the arena began clearing out, you ran to the court to congratulate your boyfriend, as he dabbed up his teammates. His body glistened with sweat, some dripped from his hair onto his jersey.

You tapped his shoulder to get his attention, feeling your feet leaving the ground, as Jean lifted you up to give him a kiss. His warm lips connected with yours, even though he was sweaty and gross, you wanted to stay in his arms forever.

"Get a room" Reiner jokingly scoffed.

"Good game, baby" You smiled up at Jean, as he placed you back down onto the court.

"Thanks baby, God I wish you could come to the after party" he sighed, caressing your shoulder.

"I know, I wish I could too, but I have to get some rest for tomorrow" you reached up to grab his face and planted a kiss on his cheek.

"Bye, don't have too much fun without me" smiling, you walked off to find your roommates.

____________________

Back at the apartment, you, Mikasa, and Sasha sat in you and Mikasa's room. The both of you shared a room, while Sasha had one to herself. When you moved in, you played a round of uno to determine who'd get the single, Sasha won.

They both sat on Mikasa's bed, while you sat on yours. The three of you reminisced previous semesters spent together, as you finished up your research.

______________________

The next morning you woke up earlier than needed. All night, you'd tossed and turned anticipating your internship, you had to make a good first impression.
Being a veterinarian had been your dream since the first grade.

You were trying your best to get as much experience as you could, but you were having trouble finding any opportunities. Jean brought it up to his dad, and boom you were given an internship, just like that.

"Really? Thank you, Mr Kirstein" you smiled, shaking the man's hand.

"Perks of dating a Kirstein" he shook your hand firmly.

You got up to make your bed and noticed Jean's worn navy sweater lying at the edge. It was his late friend Marco's. You hummed, you should take it to him, he'd probably miss it.

You wanted to see him anyways, congratulate him on the win again and get details about the party last night. 'Did Connie get rejected by another girl?' 'Did Armin pass out again?'

You slipped on a white long sleeved shirt, your black scrubs, and grabbed your coat on the way out.

After getting dressed for the clinic, you walked over to their apartment, your complexes were just across from each other. There weren't many differences between the two, the main one being they had a gym. Jean said that was the reason they chose it, you chose yours because your scholarship paid for it.

Knocking on the door of the student apartment, you stood waiting for someone to answer, the wind grew stronger with each second.

The door swiftly opened to reveal a shirtless, Eren. His dark hair was pulled into a messy bun, some strands falling onto his face. The birds that went from his hands to his shoulders, actually went to his chest and seemingly his back as well. You noticed he also had both of his nipples pierced like you, 'cool'.

"Jean's not here" he groggily stated. He looked down at you, one hand holding the door open while the other held onto the door frame. Gray sweatpants hung loosely at his waist. The heat leaked out from the apartment, granting you a slither of warmth.

"I just wanted to see Jean and drop this off." You shrugged, handing him the navy sweater.

"And I'm sorry for what happened yesterday. I told Jean that we'd eventually get caught, but he's kinda stubborn so.."

"It's more Jean's fault than yours, you aren't my roommate. You don't owe me anything" his emerald eyes flickered to yours, grabbing the sweater.

"Okay, then I'll just tell Jean I stopped by and left the sweater with you" you nodded, before turning and walking down the stairs. That actually wasn't so bad, he didn't seem to give a fuck, so why should you.
_________________________

Fifteen minutes later, you arrived at the Paradis Animal Clinic. You stepped out of your bright blue Toyota Camry. Your mom had found it on Facebook marketplace for your high school graduation.

The Paradis winter breeze slapped you across the face as soon as you left the warmth of your car. After grabbing your tote bag, you shut and locked your door. Glancing up at the clinic, you took a deep breath and walked through the doors.

Although it was an animal clinic, it smelled nice, like fresh linen. At the front desk a blonde man stood with his back turned to you. Based on his white medical coat, you assumed he was going to be your new mentor.

You cleared your throat to grab his attention, walking closer to the desk. The man turned, his blue eyes searching the room, until they landed on you. A smile quickly spread across his face.

"Oh hello, you must be my new intern, Miss l/n?" He stretched his hand out to greet you.

You took it and gave it a gentle shake, "yes sir, but please just call me, y/n".

"Okay, well welcome y/n, I'm Dr. Erwin Smith. It's nice to meet you. Mayor Kirstein asked me for a favor to help his son's girlfriend and I've been needing help around here anyways, so it all worked out" he shrugged with a slight chuckle.

"Let me show you around, may I?" He looked down at your tote bag. You nodded and handed it over to him. Dr. Smith grabbed the bag and placed it on one of the coat racks beside the desk. You also took off your coat and placed it on the rack.

"Firstly, this is the front desk, where you'll help get patients checked in, and set up future appointments." The desk was the center of the entrance, with various navy blue chairs by the walls on either side, for waiting patients.

The desk had a few decorations with various animals, like a polar bear plushie and a red panda pen holder.

"Petra loves her endangered species, you'll meet her next week. She had to move to part time, since she's off doing her own private practices. You'll be at the desk when she isn't here and when she is, I'll have you shadow me in the back" he gave you a small smile and headed out of the waiting room area.

Dr. Smith guided you through the back with various rooms, including the exam, treatment, and operating rooms. You learned they also offered grooming services. Walking through the clinic, you noticed the color scheme was navy and white, most rooms had white walls with blue paw prints across them.

"And here is my office" he pointed to the last room in the building.

"It's nice, I really like what you've done with the place" you gave him a slight smile.

"Thanks, but that's all Petra, she was actually my intern a few years before you" he chuckled.

"Well, let's get back to the front, patients will be coming in soon" he lead you back through the clinic.

______________________

After five hours of, "hi's" and head scratches, you pulled up to your student apartment. You grabbed your things and walked into the complex. The elevator was occupied as always, so you took the stairs. You needed to get your steps in anyways.

Arriving at your door, you looked down at the familiar doormat, now worn from years of usage. It was black with "come as you are" in white lettering. The girls said it was a present from one of the guys freshman year.

You grabbed your keycard from your bag and swiped it, opening the door. Sasha sat on the couch, her back turned to you, as she watched some cooking competition.

"Hey, Sash" you greeted, closing the door behind you and placing your bag on the counter. "Oh hey, how was the internship?" She turned to look over at you, as you made your way into to the fridge.

"It was good, Dr. Smith's really sweet and the animals were so cute. I met a blind elderly cat named Clementine, she was the cutest." You smiled reminiscing your day. Though your smile quickly vanished when you noticed there was nothing to eat in the fridge.

"We need to go grocery shopping again" you sighed, grabbing a water and heading to the living area with Sasha.

"Yeah, wonder how that happened...we should go to the food court and get something" she suggested.

"I'm down, Mika here?" You asked sitting on the couch next to her.

"Shes in the shower, we can go when she's out"

"Did she go on another morning run?" You asked, already knowing the answer, taking a sip of your water.

"Yep, I don't see how she does it" she shook her head, and went back to watch the tv. You reached into your pocket for your phone to text Jean.

You
hey bby, i forgot to text you this morning
i stopped by to see you, but eren
said you were gone. i left your sweater w/ him<3

"Oh hey y/n, how was the internship?" Mikasa walked out of your room, rubbing her hair with a towel.

"It was good, I actually really liked it" you looked up from your phone placing it into your pocket.

"Me and Sash were waiting to see if you wanted to go to the food court for lunch"

"Yeah I'm down, are you wearing that?" She asked, looking over at your scrubs.

"I should probably change, don't wanna walk around with dog hair " you laughed.

You scurried into you and Mikasa's room and looked for something to slip on. You decided on a gray hoodie and light washed jeans, something simple.

Walking out of the room, Mikasa and Sasha were already waiting at the front door.

"Okay, I'm ready, are you gonna go out with damp hair?" You questioned Mikasa.

"Mhm, you know I don't get sick" she shrugged and opened the door for you and Sasha. Sometimes you swore she wasn't human.

_______________________

You all decided to get something from Titan's Tea. They served a variety of tea of course, but also the best sandwiches.

The heat wrapped around you like a warm blanket, as you walked in. The line wasn't too long, with only two people ahead of you. You glanced at the menu even though you'd probably get your usual order, a bacon avocado sandwich with a raspberry iced tea.

The person at the front of the line grabbed their food and turned to leave, as they walked closer ,you recognized it was Eren. He had his head down looking at his phone, his hair was down today, covering most of his face.

"Oh hey Eren", Sasha called out to him as he walked over. Eren looked up, "Sup Sash, Mika, Jean's girl" he gave a small nod and walked out of the cafe.

You could hear Sasha suppressing a laugh, "see I told you he wouldn't remember the other day, he can't even remember your name" she patted your back.

"But that was a bit uncalled for, he could've just said hey and kept it pushing" Mikasa added.

"Eh, you know how Eren is. It took him a good 3 years to warm up to Nic"

"Next in line please" the cashier called out, the person in front of you had gotten their order and left.

Sasha ended up ordering and paying for all of you, only because she felt guilty about the groceries "disappearing."

You sat at one of the tables towards the entrance of the cafe, you loved to people watch so you faced the window, while Mikasa and Sasha sat across from you.

You let out a satisfied sigh after taking a sip of your tea, it always hit the spot. You knew the food was good because none of you spoke until you finished your sandwiches.

"That was so good, I wish they were hiring. I would get such a good discount" Sasha shook her head before taking a sip of her drink. You all let out a chuckle.

"I know this is kinda random since it's January, but has anybody thought of any plans for Spring Break?"Mikasa asked.

"Nope, but we need to do something better than the carnival this year" Sasha added.

"Hey, I actually liked the carnival" you objected. To be fair, you'd always loved the carnival, it was one of your favorite things to do with your mom when you were a kid.

"The carnival is fun, but not spring break fun, you know?" She shrugged.

"Well, I was thinking we could go to the Jaeger lake house" Mikasa added.

"Oh my God yes! We haven't been since senior year" Sasha exclaimed.

"Jaeger lake house?" You questioned.

"Yeah, Eren's family has a lake house about an hour and thirty minutes from here. It's a nice spot in the countryside" Mikasa explained.

"But we haven't been in forever, not since Hitch got us busted"

"Hitch?" You sipped more of your tea, your straw let out a screeching noise, as you moved it around the plastic cup.

"Yep, she was pissed that Eren didn't invite her so she called the cops, which led to Dr. Jaeger banning us from the house" Sasha sighed.

"But that was years ago, and we're not teenagers anymore. I doubt he'd mind, and even if he did Eren would still do it...if he wanted to" Mikasa reassured, she seemed to really want this.

"I mean, I'm down for whatever. It sounds fun, but I think the main person you guys have to discuss it with is Eren" you shrugged.

"Mmm yeah, we should ask him when he's around a lot people. A bit of peer pressure never hurt anyone." Sasha opened her plastic cup and threw back the pieces of ice that were left.

"Peer pressure Eren?" You questioned, he didn't seem like the type to bend easily for anyone.

"Believe it or not, he's actually a big people pleaser" she shrugged, crunching on the ice.

"Oh Sash have you seen Hitch's stories on her spam" Mikasa questioned.

"Yes! She's been posting these pics with some dude, but his face is always cut out" Sasha exclaimed, she loved her gossip.

"Maybe she finally found someone" you suggested, you didn't know Hitch that well but from everything you've heard about her, she seemed to be desperate for romance.

"But the thing is, I can't figure out who it is. It's bothering me. Like I know it isn't important, but I'm intrigued." Mikasa added. You let out a chuckle, Mikasa barely ever cared about anything this much. Now you were intrigued.

"It could be somebody neither of you know."

"Maybe...or it could be Eren" Sasha suggested, crunching on more ice.

"Why'd you say that?" You asked.

"I mean, we know she was crazy about him and Jean back in high school and ever since you and Jean got together she's been all over Eren." She explained.

"Mhm, and Eren barely tells us about his love life, but we do know that they hooked up last semester after a football game" Mikasa added.

"And where'd you get that information?"

"Connie, he said he saw them both leaving out of one of the bedrooms at the frat house"

"Well, maybe it is him" you pondered. Your phone vibrated inside your pocket. You slipped it out and read the notification, Jean had replied to your message.

"Earth to y/n" Sasha waved her hand near your face.

"Sorry, I was texting Jean" you chuckle looking up at her and Mikasa.

"What was he up to?" Mikasa asked.

"He just got home from the sauna with Reiner"

"Ughh, we should head home, I have some work I need to do before classes tomorrow" Sasha sighed.

"Yeah, and I need a shower" you agreed.

"But, I'm determined to find this mystery man, and convince Eren about the lake house" Mikasa stood from her chair.

"I think we have too much time on our hands" Sasha chuckled.
