It doesn't matter how much they post you, how much they show affection in public... people are always around you, taking your attention away from them!

Reiner and Jean handle jealousy differently.

Reiner gets quiet and touchy, like a puppy. When you're at a party Reiner loops his arms around your waist and buries his head on your neck, hiding from everybody because he's sad and burning with jealousy but thinks that being that close to you is going to push people away.

He even whines when the conversation with someone gets too long, hiding his face deeper so you understand that he wants the convo to be over.

He rarely lifts his head on these moments, kissing the back of your neck with short and quick kisses, there was even one time that he licked you.

Jean is loud and embarrassing. Too loud and too embarrasing.

He tries to play it cool, to act like he doesn't care but he's as blinded from jealousy as Reiner is.

He lasts maybe thirty seconds before the loud part kicks in. "Buddy, you blind or something?" he'll blurt out, voice carrying way too far across the party or the campus quad. Jean doesn't even care, he's already stepping closer, slinging an arm around your shoulders.

And it gets worse.

He starts dropping these over-the-top lines that make your face heat up instantly. "She's taken, man. We've got matching hickeys and everything, wanna see?"

If the person doesn't back off fast enough, Jean gets louder. He'll start telling random stories about your relationship at full volume, like "Remember that time we stayed up all night studying and she fell asleep on my chest, babe? Best night ever." It's his weird way of reminding everyone (and himself) that you chose them. Reiner's usually hiding his laugh in your neck during these moments because he knows Jean's spiraling.

One time at a house party some girl from your psych class kept touching your arm while talking about joining a study group. Jean immediately jumped in with, "She's busy. We've got couple stuff planned all weekend. In bed." You elbowed him so hard but he just laughed and kissed your temple, totally proud of himself.

He gets all handsy too, but unlike Reiner's soft puppy cling, Jean's touch is bold. He'll pull you onto his lap in the middle of a conversation, hands resting way too low on your hips, whispering (not really whispering, more like loud enough for others to hear) stuff like "Come here, princess, I miss you already" even though you're right there.

Later, when you're all alone they're both insufferable, kissing all over your face and insisting to mark you up so everyone knows you're theirs.
