Discaimer: I don't own Attack on Titan.
After speaking for five hours, Hanji declared that she needed to drink something and left. Eren felt relife. He had not got any problem with Hanji, he even respected her because of her knowledge about the Titans, but listening her stories was too exhasuting.
"Eren," he heard a very familiar voice.
"Heichou?!" Eren jumped up with that hitting his knees into the table. "Shit!" He swore.
"You can sit down," Levi said, commiserating the boy in front of him. Levi came round the table, so when he sat down, he faced Eren. The younger boy gulped which made him smirk a little.
"Can I help you with anything, Heichou?" Eren asked politely while grabbing a fistful of his pants.
"Would you tell me why did you stare at me while we were riding all the way here?"
Eren's mouth opened and his cheeks became red because of embrassment.
"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to! I was just…"
"Just?" Levi asked. Eren did not reply, but lowered his gaze. Levi sighed. Then he saw how Eren's head lifted up.
"You see," Eren started, "all of my life, I wanted to become one of you. I wanted to see the outside world and fight againts Titans to save humanity."
"This a honorable goal, but it doesn't give me the proper answer of my question." Eren didn't say anything again. "You did it, because you were afraid of me?"
"No!" Eren exclaimed immediately. "It had nothing to do with the things that happened during the trial!"
"Then, because of I am your superior?" Eren shook his head. Levi saw as he took a deep breath.
"I've heard lots of things about you when I was a child, like you're humanity's strongest solider and stuff…" Levi rolled his eyes. Just like always… "Because of this," Eren continued with shaking voice, "you became some kind of idol to me!" He gabbled, blushing hard.
"Hm, interesting," Levi said. Eren cocked his head, with a questioning look on his face. "When I first saw you in the prison, I thought that you were a suicidal bastard and that didn't change after you had almost killed yourself with that stupid speech." Eren hung his head down. "But after you said you weren't afraid of me despite what I had done to you, I started to see you as someone worthy for my interest."
Eren's head perked up, a huge smile appearing on his face.
"Really?!" He asked happily, leaning towards Levi, who backed away.
"Yes, but if you don't leave my personal space, I will take it all back."
"Oops, sor-" he started, but his sentence ended in a yawn.
"You're tired. Go to sleep! You will be useless tomorrow, if you don't sleep enough."
"Yes, Heichou!" Eren said, standig up from the table. When he reached the exit of the hall, he turned back, "Good night!" He said to Levi with his brightest smile on his face. As an answer, Levi blinked twice.
After Eren had left, he felt as two arms hugged him from behind.
"Someone is in loovvee -" Hanji said in a sing-sang voice.
"Shut up, Shitty Glasses!"
