Confessions Of A Captain
One
Stuck in a Titan's throat, he was supposed to die. He accepted death as it's cold fingers grasped his hand. Wait, no, that was… Levi's hand?! No! He's not going to die because of Eren, he was not going to die! "Captain! Don't, just let me-!"
And he was cut off by being thrown upon the nearest building and Levi was holding that Titan's mouth open long enough to say, "No! I am prepared to die, you aren't! Run!" he demanded as Eren just laid there. Its mouth closed, and Levi was swallowed whole.
"Captain!" he couldn't take it. Someone was eaten because of him, yet again. He stood defiantly, looking that Titan in its empty eyes. "Eat me!" he demanded as its fingers were soon upon him. He had the best idea, and this was going to work. It had to.
The Titan's fingers squeezed his abdomen a bit too much, but he didn't care as it popped him into its mouth. Once his feet slipped on its tongue, he slid down its throat, ready for another confrontation with his captain. He had to hold his breath so the Titan's muscles wouldn't suffocate him, but it was well worth it as he suddenly dropped.
He could feel it walking around again as he was soaked in blood from his feet to his waist. Luckily, for him and the humans, this one hadn't eaten much. But his thoughts were completely cut off as he was standing there, "Captain!" and he moved as fast as he could to get to Levi.
"Yeager, you dumbass! What do you think you're doing?!" Levi shouted at the stupid soldier. "I told you to live," he demanded as he grabbed the front of his sticky shirt.
"I am living, and you are, too," he was still wearing his equipment. As a matter of fact, they both were. Eren told Levi his process of thought before he had been voluntarily swallowed, and the Captain smacked him upside the head.
"What the fuck were you thinking?! And just what if I refused?" he shouted.
"Why would you?!" Eren shouted back, now done with trying to reason with him.
"Because I'm ready to die," he admitted. "You can climb out, cut yourself out or whatever, I'm done," he let go of Eren and pushed him back into the blood and scattered limbs.
"No," he refused to give up.
"Leave me, that's an order!" he shouted as Eren stood once more.
"I. Said. NO! You can't die here! Not like this!" he insisted.
"And why not?" Levi asked.
"Because I- we need you," he almost said… No, not yet.
"I ordered you to leave me," he turned around and blood splashed as he plopped down and crossed his arms over his chest.
"Then I'll have to disobey you this once," Eren pulled him from the blood, and he almost threw up as he realized how bad it smelled in here. "We're getting out, and taking refuge in a house nearby."
Levi stood, and didn't say a word, but he slipped the blades from the holsters and stabbed the wall of the Titan's stomach. And he started to climb. Stupid brat can't leave me alone, I'll show him who's in charge here…
Finally, let's go… Eren thought as he followed, the flesh tearing as he put his weight on the blades. Some of the blood even spurted and got in his face. Ew…. But once they reached the throat, Levi used Eren's plan and took action. He had to have perfect balance to be able to do this in one go.
He was ready and Eren watched in awe as he leaped from the wall and turned, slashing open the nape of this asshole's neck. And he could feel them falling over as the Titan was dead. Soon the whole body will be heating up, and they had to get out, now.
But when they fell, Eren's swords jutted from the Titan's skin, making one of them bash into his forehead. Levi sighed in frustration as he removed the blades from the hilts and he stuck the hilts to the extra blades in the holsters, ready to use.
Eren was still awake, but disoriented as he was dragged from the Titan's body, the fresh air making him breath it in huge gulps. "Jaeger! You stay awake or I will kill you!" the captain threatened. "We need to move, now!" as there were two Titan's already heading their way, and once they were seen, they needed to get up and run, or fly, as their situation permits.
"Levi?" Levi growled and settled for backhanding his disoriented soldier instead of just talking to him. Eren woke with a start. "Hey! There's no need for-!" and he was cut off by huge and heavy footfalls getting closer.
"Get up!" Levi ordered and Eren complied, attaching himself to nearby walls as they both sprung up onto the tops of buildings. "10 and 12 meters, twelve and six o' clock," Levi pointed and Eren nodded, knowing what he was getting at.
They were running for the human and the Titan boy atop the roof, and that was their mistake. Eren attached himself to a taller building as one of them ran by and slashed through the weak spot easily as Levi awaited his target.
Eren watched with wide eyes as that bored face disappeared when he turned around. He easily ran up the Titan's arm and spun completely around its head, slashing through the nape of its neck and cutting out a chunk as it dropped over the roof top and he landed in its hair.
He checked Eren to see if he had killed the Titan and he nodded as he jumped from his kill's head. "We should leave before more of them come," he grabbed Eren's arm and the soldier complied, following him through the air, and hoping Levi never gets eaten again…
"Why did you save my life?" Levi questioned.
"What else was I supposed to do, Captain?" Eren asked in return.
"You were supposed to let me get eaten," slipping his coat and scarf back over himself, as they had cleaned up now that they were safe. Well, as safe as one can get nowadays. They were awaiting for others to confirm the path safe and escort them back to everyone else.
"What kind of soldier leaves their captain like that?" he asked as Levi glared at him with the same bored face. But this was somehow different as his grey eyes bored deep into Eren's dark blue ones.
"A soldier who has respect for their Captain's wishes," he proposed as Eren narrowed his eyes at Levi. Is he really hating me for saving his life? And what about those feeling things I have for him? Jesus, I need to spill it all, now. Before something else happens…
He knew he shouldn't bring his personal feelings into this, but he couldn't help it as he retorted, "Well, what if I wasn't just acting as a soldier? Hmm, what if I was acting as a friend?!" his voice was rising and he couldn't help that either.
Levi was so glad they hadn't put their equipment back on as he reared his fist. He struck out and Eren stumbled, but kept his footing. "Soldiers don't befriend their Captains," he said simply, the irritation fading as he had the satisfaction of punching Eren.
"No? Well, that explains a lot," Eren admitted as Levi was actually confused. His brows even furrowed a bit as Eren grinned, "You haven't noticed? Every soldier either hates you or loves you," he explained and well, Levi knew that.
"We all know this," he stared as Eren's hand twitched as if he wanted to reach out, but he didn't. "Quit stating the obvious and get to the point, brat," he demanded. He knew there was a greater point to this conversation than just that.
"Fine, if I don't hate you, then what do I feel towards you? It's a simple answer, one that I hate to admit," he growled as he stepped closer. "But, simple."
Levi eyes widened a bit as he realized what Eren was saying. "Since when? You stupid idiot…" he asked.
"Since I first saw you when you had me chained to the bed," he admitted. "And I was also right in thinking you wouldn't care, because you don't," he spun round to walk away but Levi caught his upper arm.
"Eren Yeager. Of all people, you," he bowed his head slightly as his hair covered the eyes that were displaying so much. But Eren couldn't see that, all he could see was Levi being a dick… again. "Of all people," he whispered as he looked into Eren's eyes.
For once, they didn't have that bored look about them. They had… something Eren didn't exactly have experience with. He wondered what the captain was going to make him do for embarrassing him.
"Captain-"
"Levi," he corrected. "Soldiers call me Captain, friends call me Captain Levi, and… others… call me Levi," he explained.
"Others?" Eren was a bit confused. "What do you mean?" he looked down on the slightly shorter man as he tried to see what that thing in his eyes was. He held the same facial expression, but his eyes told a completely different story.
Then Levi rolled those eyes and Eren realized what he meant by others, just as he was pressed onto a wall…
Sorry, I got the idea to have Levi eaten, and then that just happened... Tell me what you think?!
