HELLO LOVELIES! I'm SO SORRY this is sooo late! I have absolutely no excuse for it except laziness! I'm gonna work on my Tokyo Ghoul fanfic now so yeah! Btw... Look at what I wrote right after this...
So... as I was writing this, my writing teacher started talking and all I hear is her say "Why do you think guys have man boobs when they get older?" talking about our food supplies and how certain food I guess cause that? I honestly don't know... she needs help..
Three years have passed by since that incident. Three years isn't enough time to heal the wounds in his heart from his first love, but Eren as learned how to bear with it. He was 18, an adult now. He finally graduated from the academy and even joined the scout legion. He definitely had to work to get up there, doing minor runs and killing 23 titans. Before he knew it, Dot Pixis had assigned him to the best group in the scout legion. Even though Pixis was the principal, he was also in charge of the scout legion.
Pixis had grown fond of the brunette, and even let him take a sick day the day after the incident with Levi. Eren cried the whole day away and Armin and Mikasa were right there with him. It was hard letting Levi go. He was his first love, and his last. Eren tried dating afterwards but all the relationships ended in failure. He ended up burying his feelings and dating women. He couldn't be with another man, it didn't feel right. Then again, neither did dating any of the women. But he still continued to date. He knew it wasn't like him to womanize, but it's not like he was serious about dating anyway. He didn't even sleep with any of them.
Well anyway, since he buried his feelings and hid them from even himself, he finally convinced himself that he was over Levi. Now that he was free from the depression, he put his all into being the best soldier he could be. He started going on runs outside the walls, and watched many people die. Now that he was assigned to the most skilled group in the survey corps, he had to try his best to not let everyone show him up. He was going on his first run with the main group the following day, and was planning to meet with everyone the night before. He met up with them at a tavern in town.
As soon as he walked in, he saw the stares he got, wearing his uniform and his green cape the draped over his shoulders. His hood was up and he noticed a few other people that were dressed the same as him in a corner of the big room. He slowly made his way over to them, trying not to pay attention to the whispers he got. It wasn't the first time he got treated this way, normal people just didn't understand the life of a soldier, especially ones that go outside the walls. Eren has seen things that normal people wouldn't be able to handle. He's watched the deaths of friends so many times he's become numb when it comes to death. He finally stopped right in front of four hooded people, pulling himself out of his thoughts.
"Hello, my name is Eren Yaeger, I'm going to be your new-"
"Erennnnn!" one of them said very playfully as they threw their arms around me. I could tell from their long hair that it was a female, and looked a bit falmiliar. "We've been waiting for youuu!"
"It's good to meet you, Eren," another woman says. She had blonde hair that only went down to her chin, and brown eyes. She awkwardly laughed as she tried to pull the other woman off him. "Sorry, Hanji always gets excited over newcomers."
"Ohhh I wonder how he'll die! Maybe he'll be ripped in two, or squashed under a titan's foot! Oh Petra, I can't wait to see it!" the woman called Hanji said as she squeezes the other woman's arm. She gets pried off the brunette.
"Wh-what?!" Eren was sort of freaking out inside at the woman's crazy words. Another man with blonde hair that was parted in the front laughs at us.
"Wow Hanji, you sure are a piece of work," the still unnamed woman glared at him.
"Shut up, Eld! She just needs to calm down and then she'll be back to normal."
"Well then, why don't I shut her up myself?" the man called Eld said standing up and grabbing Hanji by the waist. Hanji scowled and punched him hard in the face, knocking him on his feet.
"Geez Eld, you sure are desperate to get in my pants, aren't you?" she said brushing her hands together as if to get dust off them. Eren noticed the only person being quiet out of the group. He couldn't see their face from under their hood, and the person was looking down at the table. Eren took the empty seat next to him, and tried to talk to them.
"Crazy bunch, aren't they?" he looks over at the group who were fighting against each other by the table. It was pretty obvious that Hanji and Petra were winning and Eld was on the ground getting kicked and yelled at. Eren looked back over towards the hooded person next to him. "Are they always this way?" he asked. The person finally spoke up.
"Pretty much," the brunette could tell it was a deep, masculine voice. It sounded a bit familiar to him.
(Maybe I'm just imagining things.)
He continued on with their conversation, ignoring what he had thought.
"How do you deal with them?" he asked.
"I either beat the shit out of them or leave them be," the man said. Eren laughed a little, which obviously to Eren, made the man tense up. He again dismissed it.
"Honestly, I think that Eld guy needs a good beating," he said.
"You've changed a lot, I see," the man said just loud enough for him to hear. Eren tilted his head in confusion.
"E-excuse me?"
"I've missed you, Eren," he says. Eren was completely confused as to just what he was talking about.
"Have we met before?" he asks. The man put one hand on his head and pulled the hood down, still looking down at the table. Eren could make out most of his face even though his eyes were covered by his jet black hair. The brunette knew instantly who it was. It was Levi, the one person he thought he got over. The one person he never wanted to see again because he didn't want his heart broken again. The older male looked over at him with kind eyes.
"Hey Eren."
"L-L-Le-Levi?!" he shouted a bit too loud, catching the attention of the other three who had stopped fighting and were now looking at them. Eren stumbled away from him and fell into the floor, still looking at him.
"Uh, Eren? You okay man?" Hanji asked looking confused.
"Th-th-there's n-no way! I'm imagining this, right?!" Eren didn't want to believe it. He didn't want to relive the heartbreak he got when Levi left. He wanted to just run, and as he got up to do so, a hand rested on his shoulder.
"Eren, are you okay?" the brunette looked up to see Petra. Her eyes were full of worry. The brunette slowly stood up and brushed the dust off his pants.
"L-let's just get to discussing our strategy for tomorrow," he said taking a seat on the other side of the table. Everyone silently sat down next to them and began the discussion. Eren caught a glance of Levi while he was semi-listening to the conversation. Levi's eyes were as stern and serious as they were three years ago. He was still slim and muscular, and even had the same haircut. However, the man looked like he hadn't been sleeping very well. There were dark bags under his eyes, darker than when he had been an instructor.
"Eren, have you been listening to a word I've said?" Petra asked him, breaking his train of thought.
"S-sort of."
"Well pay attention," Eld said scolding him. The brunette hung his head. Levi didn't say another word as the conversation went on. When it finally ended everyone went home. They all had families to see before they went on their run. It might be the last time they saw them. Of course, Eren had no family to see. Mikasa was the only family he had and he already went to see her before he went to the tavern. He'd go to see Armin, but he was currently with his grandfather. He had to go back to his small lonely apartment alone.
"Hey, brat," a voice said. Eren knew exactly who it was and scowled.
"I'm not a brat anymore. What do you want with me anyway?" Eren walked out the door without stopping as he spoke. He continued his steps down the street, knowing Levi was following right behind him.
"Why are you so bitchy? It's not my fault I had to leave."
"Not your fault? It's completely your fault!" the brunette tried his best to not raise his voice as he grumbled those words out. As soon as they got near an alleyway, Eren was pulled into it. Levi pushed him against a wall and leaned in close.
"How is it my fault?" he asked. The brunette glared at the older male.
"You were the one that decided to kiss me in front of the entire class, not to mention any other people walking by. I was called a fucking queer for a whole year until people let it go," Levi's stare softened.
"Eren.." the brunette pushed the man's arm out of the way and walked out of the alleyway.
"Don't fucking 'Eren' me," his steps started to quicken.
"Eren, listen to me."
"No," Levi kept calling out to the brunette and kept getting ignored the whole way back to Eren's house. He lived alone, which wasn't good in this situation.
"Eren, please," Levi called out to the younger male as they reached the steps of his house. The brunette opened the door to his house.
"No, I refuse to go through all that pain all over again!" he finally raised his voice at him, slamming his door on Levi's face.
*Eren's point of view*
I paced back and forth in the living room, trying to calm myself down. I was pulling at strands of my hair.
"That fucking fuckface, he probably planned this! He probably got me in to that team so he could steal my heart and shit it out!" I slowly sunk to the floor, tears flowing down my face. "FUCK!" I screamed. I didn't want to see him. All the feelings I had kept trapped in me for three years had flowed out. It was as if the incident had happened that day. I wished hard that tomorrow would never come so I didn't have to see 'fuckface' again.
(Why can't he just leave me alone so I can continue my normal life I scraped out from what I had left of that day?!)
"I will NEVER forgive him!"
