How... how could he be so stupid?

Eren's fists clenched in the pockets of his coat, rapid footsteps carrying him away from a sight he wasn't supposed to see, wasn't supposed to know about.

You. You.

Hands holding your waist, lips pressed against yours in something oh-so-tender and intimate it made the brunette's stomach churn with jealousy and somet more... It should have been him.

And you had made ir quite clear, now that he thought about it. The stolen glances, the little gestures. He had trusted you since day one, and the feeling was mutual. He hoped it was, at least. But he didn't see you. The you that was slowly developing feelings, the you that perhaps yearned for something he was too blind to see.

The you that had waited and waited, gave him plenty of occasions until finally moving on. And now, now when Eren had finally pieced everything together, you were there, getting swiped off your feet in a lonely hallway in the dead of night.

A fool. He was a damned blind fool.
