Chapter Text
They were supposed to be in class, learning and getting an education, solving math equations or learning the elements on the periodic table....but they weren't.
Jean had Eren pinned down in the spacious back seat of his car as he deepened the kisses they had been sharing. Eren whimpered slightly and tangled his fingers in Jean's short hair.
"That's a cute sound." Jean teased as he started to kiss down Eren's neck.
"Shut up horseface." Eren said sounding a little breathless "If you leave anymore visible hickeys I'll kick your ass."
"I love it when you act tough." Jean said before nibbling at Eren's ear causing the brunette to gasp before pulling Jean back into another kiss. They continued to kiss for a little longer until they heard the bell ring. As much as Eren wanted to stay in the car with Jean and kiss the day away, he had English class next and it was the only class he was struggling with this year; and struggling was a polite way to say he was failing. Eren made a frustrated sound before pulling away from his boyfriend.
"I have to go." Eren said as he tried to sit up only to be pushed back down.
"No stay. Skip one more class with me then we can both go back." Jean said giving Eren a few quick kisses.
"I can't. I have English. If I skip again I'll never catch up and I'm already failing."
"Fine." Jean said as he reluctantly got off Eren and the two of them headed back into the school. Jean walked Eren to class, which to most people might seem odd since Eren and Jean were known to fight like cats and dogs. What they didn't know was that Jean was actually a really great boyfriend. Eren really liked Jean a lot. Sure they bickered like an old married couple and often annoyed each other to no end but Jean could be surprisingly sweet when he wanted to be.
"I'll meet you after class." Jean said.
"Ok captain possessive." Eren teased and he gave Jean a mock salute.
"Fuckin' dork." Jean said as he flicked Eren's forehead before walking away.
Eren went in and sat down at his desk. He tried to pay attention but he just couldn't because even though Shakespeare was one of the greatest writers of all time Eren didn't find him nearly as special or interesting as everyone else seemed too. Instead Eren discreetly texted Jean, begging the other boy to rescue him before he died from boredom. To which the other boy unhelpfully replied that they could still be making out in the car if Eren hadn't decided to be a goody two shoes and actually go to class.
When the bell finally rang again Eren wondered if he was ever going to be able to pass this class or if it was just a total lost cause at this point. As he put his books and notes, which were mostly just doodles, back into his school bag he heard the teacher asked him if he would mind staying after class for a few minutes.
"Eren. I noticed that you have been having some difficulties keeping up in my class." She said. "Now I have been speaking to some of the students in my AP English class about tutoring some of the students in this English class and I thought-"
"A tutor...I don't think that I need one." Eren said cutting off the teacher. The last thing Eren wanted was for some AP student talking down to him for an hour or so a few days a week after school. Treating him like he was stupid because he was failing English. Eren wasn't stupid. In fact he had A's and B's in all of his other classes.
"Eren. There is nothing wrong with getting a little extra help. You are a very bright boy and I think a little bit of help would improve your grade in this class. So after school today I would like for you to come back here to meet your tutor."
Eren gave in and told the teacher he would be there. Then left the classroom and found Jean leaning against the lockers waiting for him.
"There you are. What took you so long?" Jean asked.
"I'm not telling. You'll only make fun of me if I do and I really don't want to have to punch you in the face for being a jerk. Especially since I would rather just go back to your car so you can kiss me until I forget what a horrible thing is about to happen to me after school."
"You know the longer you put off telling me the more I'm going to make fun of you after I find out."
~XxxxX~
When school ended Eren told Jean he had to stay after school today. Eren pretended that he had detention from skipping class earlier that day since that would be less embarrassing then having Jean find out he needed an English tutor. When Eren got to the classroom he saw his teacher talking to a short blond boy. Eren knocked on the door to announce his presence.
"Ah Eren come in." She said. "I'd like you to meet Armin Arlert, my best AP student. Armin this is Eren Yeager, the student you will be tutoring."
"Nice to meet you." The blond said quietly.
"Yeah." Eren said. This was just great. Not only did he have to have a tutor but it was going to be the 'best' AP student tutor. Could this get anymore humiliating? Even thought the other boy didn't look like he had a mean bone in this body, Eren could already imagine how condescending the other boy would be when he found out just how bad Eren's grade in this class actually was.
"I have to get to a faculty meeting so I better be going. I'll let the two of you come up with a plan for the tutoring sessions."
"So..." Eren said after the teacher left the room. "When works for you. I'm free pretty much any day after school."
"I was thinking Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays after school in the library."
"Three days a week, seriously? How dumb do you think I am?" Eren asked sounding more defensive then he meant to.
"Oh no I didn't mean it like that!" The blond said franticly. "I just thought that the more often we got together the faster your grades will improve."
"Alright, fine. I'll meet you in the library tomorrow after school."
Then Eren turned around and left the blond boy standing by the desk. As he left the classroom he stopped dead in his tracks when he saw Jean in the hallway, staring at him with a cocky smirk on his face.
"Oh God. Please tell me you didn't overhear any of that conversation."
"What conversation? " Jean asked in a coy tone while still smirking at his boyfriend.
Eren made a whiny frustrated noise as he walked forward and leaned his head against the lockers.
"You're cute when you pout like that."
"Shut up."
"I didn't think you were serious about failing English." Jean said trying not to laugh to hard. "...A tutor huh?"
"Shut uuuup" Eren whined as he turned and weakly punched Jean's chest as he continued to have his mini temper tantrum.
"Come on. I'll drive you home." Jean said as they walked down the hall to the front doors of the school. "wouldn't want you to get lost since the street signs are all written in English and well you do need a tutor..."
"You are such an asshole." Eren whined again as he punched Jean a little harder this time.
"Yeah but you love me anyway."
"As unfortunate as that is for both of us."
"Now who is the asshole."
"Payback is a bitch." Eren said as they got into Jean's car so he could drive Eren home. Eren couldn't wait to get home so that he could at least try and pretend that tomorrow he didn't have to stay after school for the event that shall not be mentioned out loud again.
