I woke up that morning to Levi in his usual spot. Curled up next to me, with my arms around him. And hogging all the blankets. He shifts and snuggles closer to me. I smile and kiss his forehead. "Come on Levi, I know you're awake." I hear disgruntled sounds from him and he snuggles closer to me. I smile even wider and say "Come on! Don't make me tickle you."
He says nothing and I move my hands to his sides. I wait a second more before I begin tickling his sides. He starts laughing, which is a rare sound from him. He then protects his vulnerable sides still laughing. I stop tickling him and sit up. He gives me a weak glare and I grin at him and say "I see you're awake." He says "I can tell brat." but sits up as well.
He shivers and I ask "Are you cold?" He looks away from me and says immediately "No." I shake my head at him and reach over, wrapping an arm around his waist and pulling him into my lap. He gives weak protests until he's in my lap. He then snuggles closer to me and says "I wasn't cold Brat." I roll my eyes and wrap my arms around his waist and put my head on his saying "Sure you weren't."
We sat like this for a few minutes before he says "We better get dressed. Before I'm late to my meeting with Erwin and you're late for training." I smile and let him get up. While you probably think this is to be nice the real reason it to stare at his ass while he walks to the bathroom. I then stand up and walk over to the bureau and pull out my uniform.
After I'm dressed I go to the bathroom and brush my teeth. I kiss Levi on the forehead right before I leave. "Brat." I hear him say as I walk to the door, "But I'm your Brat" I say in response. I throw him a smile over my shoulder as I walk out the door. As I walk to the training grounds I see Hanji run up to me.
"EREN! Can you help me for a second?" She asks. "Uh. Can't. I have training right now." I say. "Maybe I can help you later?" I say as I walk by her towards the training grounds. But before I take 3 steps I feel a sting in my neck. I put my hand over the spot and say "Ouch! What the heck….." As I'm speaking I feel really heavy and see everything go black.
I wake up strapped to a table in Hanji's lab with a major headache. Great. Just stellar. Everyone who could get me out of here is in a meeting or training…..I'm fucked. I look around as much as the straps will allow in an attempt to locate Hanji. I don't see her so I yell "HANJI! LET ME GO!" She appears a second later with her usual insane grin. "Eren! You woke up! Good! Now I can test this on you!" She says holding up a syringe.
I begin staining against the straps "HELL NO ARE YOU INJECTING ME WITH SOME EXPERIMENTAL SHIT! GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME!" I shout. "Quit struggling! It'll be over in a second!" She says still smiling like psycho. Just as she's about to inject me an officer comes in. He looks startled but says "Umm. Commander requested your presence at the meeting."
Hanji looks crestfallen at this and I make the mistake of sitting still for too long. She moves quickly and shoves the syringe into my arm. She pulls it out quickly grinning. "See Eren? Didn't hurt much." She unstraps me and says "You can have the rest of the day off. Come see me if you feel any side effects!" I glare at the back of her head as she and the officer left.
I look at the clock and see the training will end in about 15 minutes. That spot on my arm hurt still but I paid it no mind. Damn Hanji and her stupid experiments. Why the fuck does she have to constantly kidnap me and test shit on me? I shake my head and stand up. Dammit why does my head hurt so much? Just as I stand up Hanji reappears with Levi right behind her.
Erwin walks in behind both of them. Levi looks from me to Hanji and asks in a deadly voice "Shitty glasses. What did you do to him?" She smiles and says "I just had him test something for me! It's nothing! He'll be fine!" He continued to glare at her until Erwin intervened "Come on you two. What's done is done." I sigh and take a step forward.
I familiar feeling goes through me. The same one I get when I'm about to shift. I see the same lightning and black out.
