'their relative positions at successive cross sections of the flow passage in the laminar flow. There is no transverse displacement of fluid-' Levi had nearly completed his essay. He had less than a paragraph to go exactly; when some brat decided to interrupt him by poking him on the shoulder. He hated being poked. He glared up at the figure that was now blocking the sun.

"What?" he demanded. The tall figure just smiled down at him.

"Do you mind if I sit here?" he said gesturing to the free space on the bench next to Levi. "Everywhere else is full." The kid said in an annoyingly happy tone. Levi scanned the quad, desperate for any other place to be available so he could tell the kid to fuck off over there. But… no such luck.

The shorter student let out an annoyed grumble. "Do whatever you want, s'not my bench." He snapped as the kid happily sat down next to Levi, making the bench wobble precariously as he did so. Levi shot an annoyed glare in the kid's direction before continuing with his essay.

He'd only written about two more sentences since he was first interrupted when the kid decided to speak to an already annoyed Levi… again. "Why aren't you writing in the library? Most people do their homework in there." Levi slammed his pen down in annoyance and looked over at the kid who was now slumped with his stupidly long legs straight out in front of him, blocking the walkway, "I like working out in the sun." Levi muttered, not even sure himself why he was talking to this kid.

The short burst of conversation had seemed to shut him up for the time being. Levi took full advantage of the silence and quickly finished his essay. He neatly organised his pages into his biology folder before getting his planner out to see what essay he needed to do next. 'One down, three to go' he internally groaned. "I'm Eren by the way!" The kid – Eren – obviously couldn't keep quiet for more than five minutes. "And I'm busy!" Levi shot back getting his chemistry folder out of his bag and replacing it with his biology one. "What sort of name is that? Your parents obviously weren't that creative." Levi rolled his eyes at Eren's lame attempt at humour and continued to ignore him as he started planning his chemistry essay.

Not even ten minutes later and Levi was interrupt by the insistent rustling and crackling of what sounded like a wrapper. He glared across at Eren who noticed and gave his grumpy companion a sheepish smile, making his lip piercing stick out. 'huh how didn't I notice that' Levi mused. "I can never get these open," Eren explained gesturing to the bag of skittles in his hands. "Give the damn things here!" Levi growled before snatching them out of the kid's hand. He ripped the mangled top (well done Eren) off and practically threw the bag back to Eren who quickly caught them, trying not spill any, while chuckling at the same time. "Cheers man!" he said before delving in and throwing one in his mouth.

Levi literally had no clue why the kid was still here, it wasn't like they were engaging in pleasant conversation, and in fact Levi was being an ass. Yet, here he still was putting up with Levi's moodiness and grinning while he did it. Something must be wrong with the kid. Levi didn't understand, he drove everyone away who sat within a ten foot radius of him… there was a reason why his bench was the only one free. He was interrupted from his thoughts by his arm being gently tapped again. His head whipped up from his abandoned essay. "Do you want one man?" Eren was now leaning against the arm of the bench with one leg propped up and the other dangling down. With the sun on his eyes Levi could see that they weren't just green like he's thought they were, they were a mixture of green and blue and even a hint of yellow. This kid's eye colour reminded Levi of the sea. "Dude?" Levi shook his head and looked at the bag of sweets in the kid's hand. "No thanks, never had one." He checked the time on his watch and decided that as his study break was nearly over, there really wasn't any point of trying to start his essay. He glanced up, surprised that Eren was still quiet and was met by the kids shocked face, "You what?" Eren had his mouth hanging open and almost whispered his question. Levi sighed heavily. "I'm not repeating myself." He put his chemistry folder away and got his planner out to make a quick note of what essay he had started. "I heard what you said but I just... you've never had a skittle? Like ever?" the kid sounded like Levi had told him that he didn't need to breathe or something. "No never, why is that such a big deal?" Eren looked taken aback and Levi realised that it was the first time since meeting him that the kid wasn't smiling. "because they're skittles! Dude, getting to college and never having a skittle is like saying you've never eaten a Poptart or snuck into a movie theatre or swam in a lake!" Levi smirked at the look on the kids face and blew a piece of hair out of his eye. The frustration on Eren's face was quite amusing. "Well... Now you mention it, I've never had or done any of those things." He deadpanned, causing Eren to choke because he gasped too quickly, which ended in him having a coughing fit. Levi just ignored it, gleeful that he'd managed to make the kid speechless.

He was putting his planner away when something hit him or the side of the head. "the fuck?" his head whipped round to Eren who was sat there eating his damned sweets with a shit eating grin on his face. "Whatever you just did, don't fucking do it again, ok?" Levi's voice was cold, he was annoyed that he couldn't work out if his bench... companion had thrown something at him or pinched him. "Ow! Fucking quit it!" lost in his thoughts, Levi hadn't noticed Eren turn his attention to him. "Did... did you just throw a fucking skittle at me?" Levi was astonished at the balls of this kid. Eren just looked away from Levi and grinned while trying to throw another one of those stupid fucking multicoloured sweets into his mouth but it bounced off of his lip ring which made Levi snigger. He felt his phone start ringing in his pocket so he fished it out without moving his glare away from the kid sat next to him who was feigning innocence. "What?" he demanded when he saw who was calling. "Well me and Erwin were let out early and we've been sat here watching you and that cutie-patootie flirt-" Levi felt his glare deepen as he swept the quad for his dumb ass friends. "- and we were wondering when we could come over and meet your future husband?" Levi was still scanning his surroundings and Eren obviously saw this as an opportunity and launched a whole handful of sweets at Levi who let out a few choice expletives and restrained himself from hitting the kid next to him. Eren was doubled over laughing next to him and he could hear Hanji's cackle, both from the call and being echoed round the quad. "Get your asses over here so we can go to lunch - which you're paying for." he hung up and waited for his stupid friends to come over. "Have one! Mr And-I'm-Busy!" Eren giggled - yes giggled, Levi couldn't believe his ears, it was oddly fitting though - 'why the fuck not?' Levi thought to himself. He held his hand out expectantly after making a huge show of rolling his eyes. Eren looked shocked but hurriedly passed one to Levi, almost dropping the whole bag in the process. Levi suppressed a smile at the bumbling idiot next to him. A green one was placed into his hand. His favourite colour. Not this shade exactly, more like... more like an ocean green. His eyes unthinkingly flickered to meet the eyes of the excited kid next to him. Levi scoffed and cleared his head of any potential soppy or emotional thoughts entered his head. Those kind were very unwanted to Levi. "Go on, try it! I swear it's not poisoned or anything!" A gleam of childish playfulness shone in Eren's eyes which caused Levi's mouth to turn up in the corners. Levi stopped it immediately. That was too close to a smile. He popped the sweet in his mouth just as shitty glasses and bushy brows eventually appeared. Levi was pleasantly surprised. The sweet actually tasted really good. He hated to think of the amount of sugar in this one tiny sweet but he tried not to obsess over the idea. Levi heard Hanji sequel and looked over to Eren who was wearing a mask of amusement and terror as this tall crazy person bounded over to him and squashed his cheeks together, all the while smiling his radiant smile that could never seemed to be wiped off his face for too long no matter what the fuck Levi - or anyone else for that matter - did to him. "Leave the kid alone four eyes!" Levi said in his monotonous voice, secretly hoping that Hanji didn't scare the kid off. Levi had gotten this far and he was intrigued by this ocean eyed brat. "I mean no harm Levi! Oh my gosh, you are just the most adorable! Isn't he adorable Erwin? Of course he is, you don't need to answer that. Oh my how I'd love to study you - I mean observe - I mean hang out with you more!" Eren looked towards Levi for help but he just smirked to the younger one in return. Eren looked completely lost and it was honestly fucking hilarious. 'good' Levi thought to himself 'instant karma for being so fucking annoying for the last half hour!' Levi sat back and watched with amusement clearly dancing in his eyes.

"err my names Eren, it's nice to meet you?" he said questioning himself as he said it. Levi felt a little bit sorry for the kid, but as long as the babbling wasn't directed towards him, he didn't give a shit. "It's nice to meet you. Oh aren't you just the cutest! I could just eat you up!" Hanji was almost vibrating with excitement. She didn't meet new people too often. Erwin decided to be the gentlemen and pried Hanji off Eren. Levi suppressed an annoyed groan. He was just starting to enjoy himself. "I'm Erwin, it's nice to meet you Eren." The kid in question looked relieved to be talking to a seemingly normal human being. "You too man!" Levi had had enough of this shit fest and he was hungry. "Lets go before Hanji shits herself with excitement." He quickly shouldered his bag as Erwin steered Hanji away from the kid. Levi hung back quickly, unsure of why he was. "My name's Levi by the way brat." he sounded bored when he said it but in actual fact his insides felt like he needed a huge dump. He didn't know why, he was just telling some brat his fucking names for gods sake. But when Eren gave gave him a beaming smile in return, the weird feeling didn't leave.

Levi awkwardly nodded and turned to leave when Eren's voice stopped him. Levi whipped around to come face - to - face, well, face - to - neck with Eren. He huffed out an annoyed sigh and took a step back so he didn't have to crane his neck that much. He could see Eren trying not to smile and it didn't piss Levi off as much as he thought it would. "same time next week?" Eren said with his signature shit eating grin on his face. Levi rolled his eyes and turned to walk away but not before saying "Don't push your luck kid." He caught up with his friends with Eren's carefree laughter still ringing in his ears...

But secretly he was positively fucking giddy for next week, and he had no idea what to make of that.
