Sometimes Eren will some sometimes pretend he doesn't know the correct form while lifting to make her come over to him

Lol I love this. I'm picturing her pressed up against his back, helping him with his dumbbell rows or something and he's standing there with his eyes all glazed over, not internalizing anything but the feeling of her boobs on him.

This actually kind of reminds me of this idea I had where Eren is a personal trainer and Mikasa is a slightly older married woman (maybe 5-7 years older?) who's husband has been cheating on her with a younger woman. They're trying to fix their marriage and he told her he'd be more attracted to her if she was thinner again (maybe she had a baby and got curvier?). Maybe he's even suggested a boob job. So Mikasa is kind of cranky about it but she gets a gym membership and signs up for personal training with Eren, who thinks she's just about the hottest woman he's ever seen. He is way more hands on with her form than he needs to be and he'll let her go over her time by almost double without charging her because he's so fascinated by their conversations.

One day she mentions why she started doing her personal training and that she isn't even sure it's worth working things out with her husband but she can't stand how she looks naked anymore and Eren is pretty much like, "I love your body. I dream of seeing you naked." One thing leads to another and pretty soon their personal training sessions start to include a LOT more cardio 😎.

But I don't really want to write it. How many times can I make Eren be the other man before it becomes my thing and I box myself in? (Looking at you, Lady's Liaison and Neighbors au and even Clueless Teens if you go by what Eren believes is happening between Porco and Mikasa versus what is actually happening between them 😭.)

[Gym training, oblivious JC]

I know a common hc for jc is him going to the gym and loving it, but hear me out: JC who doesn't like going to the gym. He doesn't mind training (after all, he trains often with the swimming team of his college), doesn't mind a run from time to time to let so stream out. But Gym? Nope.

But he is somewhat forced to go, with how insistent his mother can get about it “You must stay fit, or do you want to be like your father? Out of shape at 4x y/o?”. Not to help, swimming is /one/ of the things jc is better than wwx at and she wants it to stay like this, so she said he should train more for this reason.

So jc does get a subscription to a gym near his college (“It's owned by my family, I can get you a better price” said nhs with a large smile). And so jc goes to the gym, but really he cannot get to like it. Getting all sweaty around other people getting all sweaty isn't really his thing (and you will never catch him using any of the machines without washing his place first).

He's also too self-conscious about other people's opinions and he feels like everyone is looking at him and judging him if he does something wrong or if he doesn't do enough set or if he doesn't look as fit as others or if h-

jc has no problem training in the pool, once he's in the water he can easily forget about everyone and everything around him. He doesn't see others, doesn't hear them, doesn't see them look at him. He's also not very good at making a workout schedule that works correctly (but he also doesn't exactly take it 100% seriously so...).

Yzy got angry when she went with him once and saw how unorganised he was in his training (“How can you be so unorganised when you are the contrary for school and swimming?”). He even nearly got himself hurt (but he was distracted by her scolding).

So yzy makes sure jc has one of the best personal trainers the gym has, which is actually the eldest son of the owner, nie mingjue. Jc is a bit intimidated by nmj because the man looks a bit fierce and strong enough that he could snap him in half like a twig if he even fucks up something in his training. Jc couldn't be considered skinny or small & has his share of muscle, but compared to nmj he looks small.

He is a bit surprised by how patient nmj actually is despite his looks, explaining the training sheet & schedule and why the exercise he suggests could help his swimming. He shows him own the use each workout machine he would need to use since he never had anyone explain it to him (jc also realise he had been using some of them wrong, he's lucky to not have hurt himself!).

Slowly jc gets more comfortable around nmj and also a bit more comfortable at the gym (nmj did suggest coming early or late since there are fewer people at these hours). He likes how the man will make sure he does the exercise right before letting him alone, how he praises him when he attains all his objectives, how he cheers him up a bit if he doesn't, how he also encourages him when he does his sets so he can finish them.

These praises make him blush and he thanks his pale skin for flushing a bit when training, so it can hide his blushing. Jc quickly grows a crush on the man and he tries to ignore it, nmj is only trying to do his job after all. But he finds they have nice chemistry and so he tries to flirt discreetly (which is not as discreet as he thinks it is, nor are his staring at nmj train somewhere else in the gym. Maybe he shouldn't listen too much to wwx advice).

Nmj does flirt back, but it often flies right over jc's head as he thinks he's simply joking with him. He does suspect sometimes that it is flirting, but then manages to convince him otherwise (“nmj must have better taste than this, he's simply being nice to me).

But on the other side, nmj /does/ like him and would like to flirt more openly, but jc doesn't always seem receptive to his flirting. (“I don't think flirting with a client is a good idea” admit lxc, “He must be really dense if he doesn't understand your obvious attempt at flirting” comment jgy). Nmj knows he cannot go too far, toeing the line of what is and isn't professional.

When their contract finally comes to an end they have already grown a bit closer, as they often talked a bit more than needed and often went on subjects that were sometimes more personal. Jc is a bit sad when nmj mentions he might not need his help anymore since he can keep it up like this way to keep the good shape he has right now (really he just wants to cut the professional/client relationship).

Jc is sure this means he won't be able to see nmj as much as he does.

“Would you like to go out for diner tonight?” he hears nmj ask.

“What?” jc asks after a moment, stunned by the question.

“I am asking you on a date,” nmj says more clearly, smiling when he sees jc blush (he can nearly hear in jgy voice, “I told you he was dense, you must be direct”)

of course, jc accepts and not long after they start dating. Jc still goes to the gym with nmj, but this time it isn't for a personal trainer, but to join his boyfriend in his training.

Finally, maybe going to the gym isn't /that/ bad.

(does it show I know fuck all about personal trainers and gyms jabfjb)

also, I just want to imagine the “first-time” nmj present jc to his two friends:

jgy: wait... aren't you the brother of jzx wife? Nmj: you know him?!? lxc: jc? Nmj: you too!? Lxc: he's the brother of lz's boyfriend nmj: !!!
