A/N: its my first story on this page! i used to be deadmui, but i lost the password somewhere in my brain... i forgot to write it down... this is my new one so i promise i wont lose this on .
"But... captain... it's Christmas tomorrow." Eren whined.
"I don't care. Clean this place right now! You will work through Christmas if you have to. just clean this." He dropped the cleaning supplies on the ground between them.
"It was an accident." Eren was joking around with Mikasa when he knocked into the table, breaking a teacup, spilling its contents. "Can't i just pick it up and-"
"No!" Levi snapped. "This entire room. I want it clean from top to bottom. I'll come back in an hour. if it's not remotely clean, you will clean this entire room with your toothbrush. Understood?"
Eren tensed as the shorter got in his face. "Y-yes. Understood." Levi stormed out, mumbling about kids and messiness. Eren sighed. Here he was, the night before Christmas, cleaning when he could be setting up decorations in the main hall.
He started with the carpet; scrubbing it clean, then decided to clean the window. He saw everyone in front laughing and getting along while he was stuck here, cleaning. He grunted as he went on the the walls. he couldn't get to the ceiling so he figured it was okay. it gets cleaned every other day, so he shouldn't notice it. He cleaned the table and as he swept the floor, he heard footsteps.
Levi turned the corner. He looked around the room. "You were given to midnight. That's one hour. You were given a whole hour and this is all you have to show for it?" Eren snapped straight up.
"I was working as hard as i could." The captain walked closer and kicked the back of Eren's knee. He landed wish his face almost on the floor.
"That is not clean. the dirt was only pushed around. You didn't mop. You didn't even clean the ceiling. How could he have known? Levi walked away so he picked himself up. The shorter faced him again. Before he could say anything, Hanji walked into the door.
"It's a minute until Christmas! You can't be upset!" She pulled them both by the arm. "Hug it out! Come on!" Levi looked disgusted. Hanji took his face in her hands and forced him to smile. He smacked her hands away. "Only once. It won't be so bad."
"If it will shut you up." Levi pulled Eren in as Eren heard counting outside. "Four! Three! Two!..." He felt his commander wrap his arms around him. so warm Eren thought. "ONE!" Suddenly, he felt a shock run through his body. then a pulling feeling. then it was like fitting an elephant in a T.V. box. He pushed back and hit the ground.
When he tried to stand, his body didn't work right. The best he could do was sit up. The first thing he saw was Hanji's face. "So strange. Eren?" He looked up and she gasped. "This is amazing! What is even going on?"
"I could ask the same thing." He tried to stand, but my legs felt wobbly. He grabbed the closest thing to him; a wall I thought i was by the table... He groaned. he assumed that other body on the other side of the room was his Captain. He was still on the floor. He struggled, but managed to get a chair. He rubbed his head. I must've hit my head pretty hard. he realized that his hair was... different. It was fuzzy. Levi sat up and looked around. Eren shot off of the chair. He was looking at himself.
"What happened?" as soon as he saw Eren, he jumped. "What the-"
"CAPTAIN! YOU'RE EREN!" Hanji screamed. She ran and grabbed a mirror. They looked at it. No doubting it. Eren raised his hand and shook it, while Levi touched his face.
That moment, they realized: somehow, they switched bodies.
