Been thinking about a Ten Seconds sequel lately, and I feel like the fic would open up with something a little like this....
[established Eren x asexual!Reader, modern verse, they're in their mid 20s]
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
“Eren,” you say, “look at me.”
“Don’t look at her Eren!”
“Eren,” you repeat as you gently hold his face in your hands, forcing his gaze towards you. His eyes are the last thing to move. They stay locked on Armin before slowly, because he can’t stop himself from doing it, they move over to meet yours. “Eren you-...” you start, “you’re the love of my life.”
“OH MY GOD!!” Jean groans. “This seriously has to be against the rules! She can’t just-”
You flip Jean off, still staring intently at Eren from your place in his lap.
“Eren,” you start over, “you’re the love of my life and I would never ever lie to you.”
“She’s totally lying to you!!”
You ignore Jean as Eren squirms uncomfortably underneath you, currently caught between a rock and a hard place, especially with the way you’re looking at him.
His heart is thundering in his chest at the feeling of your soft hands on his cheeks. Your thighs against his. The way your breath ghosts softly over his face as you look at him, your boyfriend of three years, with nothing but pure love and adoration. He feels like he might melt.
“I’m not the werewolf,” you say, “it’s Jean.”
“I TOLD YOU IT IS NOT ME!!!”
“You’re the last villager left, right?” Eren nods along with your words. “So if you do the right thing and say that Jean is the werewolf, then you and I can be the last two survivors. We can win together.”
“Holy shit seriously!?” Jean turns to Armin, who’s holding back laughter at his boyfriend’s competitive outburst. “Armin, c’mon you have to tell her to stop! This is so unfair!”
“Sorry Jean,” Armin giggles, “I’m dead already, I can’t do anything about this.”
Jean groans and turns to Connie. “Back me up here, dude!”
“Nah this is hilarious.” Connie laughs as he leans back against the couch, taking another sip from his drink as he watches the end of their game of Ultimate Werewolf unfold.
Jean just groans again as he runs his fingers through his hair in frustration. “Eren don’t be a fucking idiot! She’s obviously the werewolf!! She took Sasha out last round because she was onto her!”
“Eren, he's jumping to conclusions,” you defend. “I’m your girlfriend, I love you so much and I wouldn’t lie to you like that.”
“You promise?” Eren asks, finally speaking for the first time since you crawled into his lap after Jean started throwing accusations at you.
“Of course I promise.” You lean forwards to give him a chaste kiss. “Besides,” you say as you pull away from his lips, “are you really going to pick Jean over me?”
And perhaps that’s what finally does it.
“Jean’s the werewolf,” Eren proclaims, “she’s a villager.”
“Is that your final vote?” Armin asks, mildly muffled by Jean’s yells of protest.
Eren locks eyes with yours and he nods.
“Alright,” Armin says, “what were you guys?”
Jean pulls up his card to show the group, loudly shouting: “I’M THE FUCKING DOCTOR YOU IDIOT!!!”
The card he was showing was, in fact, the doctor. Which meant….
“I won!!!” You proudly announce as you hop off Eren’s lap and flash everyone your own card:
werewolf
“I FUCKING TOLD YOU SHE WAS LYING!!!” Jean throws his card onto the table as you leap across the room to add a green tally behind your name on the whiteboard, marking another satisfying victory.
“You…. You lied to me?” Eren asks, still getting over the shock of your betrayal.
“Sorry babe,” you tell him as you turn around, snapping the lid onto the whiteboard marker as you do, “that’s just how the game’s played, I’m afraid.”
“You play this game the way I imagine a war criminal would play this game.” Mikasa says.
“Aww…” You place your hand on your heart. “Thank you.”
All I want is two hot bisexual boyfriends (Eren and Floch) that have sex with each other but not me (Eren and Floch). I don't think I'm asking for much here (Eren and Floch. I'm asking for Eren and Floch.)
I know I posted about it yesterday but I seriously can't stop thinking about Floch/Reader/Eren in a Ten Seconds sequel!! Floch, that little bastard, as INVADED MY BRAIN!!! I love an enemies to lovers story and it becomes so BEAUTIFULLY COMPLICATED if a Floch/Reader romance blooms in this verse ahhhhh
listen here:
[Eren/Reader/Floch - established Eren/Reader, reader is asexual]
Floch's been in love with Eren since DAY 1 of them meeting (Eren was his bi awakening) so when they start having casual sex in their first year of uni but Eren's really clear with him about "no feelings" SO he bottles those feelings up (it's cliche but KEEP READING)
THEN when Eren starts dating you (aka the whole plot of Ten Seconds) Floch is so fucking heart broken because Eren had told him over and over again that he doesn't date people and just fucks
BUT AT LEAST you and Eren start to have a really weird nontraditional relationship where Eren still fucks other people (which Floch DOES NOT understand and eventually comes out as aphobia because he's ignorant don't worry he will learn)
Even though he can get railed by your boyfriend, Floch still hates you with a burning passion because Eren's so clearly in love with you and the way he looks at you is different than how Eren's ever looked at anyone else
And Floch can't help the jealousy that burns a hole in his heart every time he sees it
Meanwhile you:
Have never really understood why Floch hates you so much. Especially since it started even before you and Eren were dating
So you tend to just ignore Floch so you don't have to deal with the headache
You know Eren likes hanging out with him (and having sex with him) so you're not going to get in the way of that
Then one day you show up to Eren's apartment just as Floch is leaving. Floch doesn't notice you're there. You see a different side of him than you've ever seen - he's softer, less angry, smiling and even laughs (a genuine laugh too, not a laugh used to mock someone)
And it makes you start seeing him in a completely different way
You start to notice the little things: how he always hesitates before saying something mean, how his eyes light up when he gets a text from a friend, how he always looks like he's about to reach out to touch Eren before he stops and pulls back.
You start to learn little things too: he gets terrible allergies in the spring, he's deathly afraid of rodents, he plays the piano and has one of the most angelic singing voices you've ever heard (and he doesn't know you heard him singing, so you can't even compliment him on it)
So you're dating Eren
Eren's fucking Floch
Floch hates you
And you... you're starting to find it hard to hate him back
Honestly, you're starting to find it hard to feel anything but the OPPOSITE of hatred...
