A/N: Surprise, surprise! Another one! Banzai! :D
(Maybe I should just shut up about predicting my own unpredictable self... -.-;)
A door in the dining hall of the Survey Corps' headquarters slowly opened. A shadow cautiously crept through it into the wide uncovered space to stalk quietly over to the one of the two doors leading out to the corridors that was just a few paces away. However, the shadow came to a sudden stop with a hand extended to the door handle, when the sound of voices resounded from the corridor.
"Where were you yesterday?" said one of the voices in a seemingly indifferent tone.
"What do you mean? You know I went experimenting with Hanji-san," replied sharply the other.
"I mean before that and you know it," growled the first one.
"...I was in my room the whole time."
"I looked for you and you weren't there."
"Maybe you came when I went to the bathroom and we missed each other?"
"Yeah, right. Brat, were you avoiding me? Or are you covering for Ackerman who hid you somewhere again?"
"I've never had to cover for Mikasa for anything. She's the one always covering for me. Besides, I wouldn't cover for her, I'm angry at her, too."
The voices were coming closer and fast. The shadow momentarily closed its eyes as it prayed they would just continue walking past the door.
"'Too'? So that means you're angry at me?"
"Yes, that's right. In fact, I was planning to avoid you for a good while longer, but it's just my luck to run into- Don't glare at me like that, Heichou, I'm the pissed one here!"
"Then tell me what the hell are you pissed about, Eren."
There was a moment of silence. The shadow stopped breathing. It could tell the people to whom the voices belonged were just outside the door, not moving. Why couldn't they just walk away?!
In a half-panic mode the shadow started to come up with an emergency plan. 'Well, at least it's obvious who'd be the one storming off here...'
Finally the other voice answered in a low, partially-surprised-partially-trembling-in-barely-contained-rage tone, "Are you seriously asking me that?"
"Yes, I am. And I demand you to explain right now."
The second voice became louder and firmer. "No. Until you come to realize that some people actually have some shame we don't have anything to talk about!"
The shadow jumped out of the way as the door suddenly opened and the furious form of Eren Jaeger appeared, immediately slamming the door shut (as much as it's possible with a door that size) behind him in a (probably meaningless) effort to effectively end the argument with his boyfriend.
He huffed, but then squeaked in surprise as he noticed the shadow which, at that very same moment, grabbed his arm and yanked him to the side. Before Eren managed to wrap his mind around what exactly was happening, he found himself on the floor in the kitchen (that was just a few paces away from the door he just closed dramatically), staring wide-eyed into two huge, brown orbs giving him a pitiful, begging look.
"Sasha? What-"
Eren was shut up by a hand being pressed to his mouth and a sharp 'shh!' just as the sound of a door opening and some quick irritated steps were heard from the bigger room. It seemed like Heichou already got over the shock of being defied and cut off by his subordinate.
Sasha groaned quietly. She hoped he wouldn't come in so soon. Than it would seem Eren just passed the room and left on the other side. Now the 'Drag Eren along so he doesn't stare after me wondering what the hell just happened and thus exposing me' emergency plan was useless.
"Eren?" they could almost see the confusion with which Levi was looking around the room, trying to find the boy who practically evaporated.
Until he'd notice the door (that is only a few paces away). Then they'd both be screwed.
Mostly Sasha.
After a minute that seemed like hours there was an awfully loud step. Than another. And another.
Sasha started trembling.
In slow-motion he door opened, creaking creepily.
Light was shining in from the other room, creating a dark, shadow-y form of their under-sized-yet-scary-enough-even-without-the-low-budget-light-play Heishichou standing behind the door.
Sasha felt like the poor heroine of a B-horror story.
"Well, well... Braus in the kitchen. Do I even need to ask what is in that bag?" Levi asked when he absorbed the situation in front of him – Eren on the floor, eyes wide, still trying to process what was going on, Sasha looming over him with one hand muffling any sound he might want to make, the other one clutching a bag, which looked ready to rip apart from the amount of things it was stuffed with, staring over her shoulder at her superior with tears of terror shining in her eyes.
The poor girl let out a whimper and Levi smiled sadistically at her. "I guess not, then. Put everything back where you took it and then you can join Ackerman on the second floor." He paused for a brief moment to ponder over the weight of her crime of stealing food. He eyed the overfilled bag before stating his final and cruel sentence. When she heard him, Sasha paled and started weeping loudly; it sounded like a death sentence to her. No dinner for the next three days and half-portions for the next two weeks was just too much for her to take.
Levi looked coldly down at Sasha who collapsed on the floor in uncontrollable sobs and without moving a muscle he exclaimed, "And you stay right where you are; we're not finished yet." Eren froze on the spot, half-way through the door, cursing silently. There goes the plan to leave unnoticed and proceed to ignore Levi's existence until he apologizes.
"So do you know where Eren is now?" Mikasa asked as soon as Sasha finished explaining just why she was ordered to assist her with the cleaning, and (after being forced by the other girl to do so) retelling word for word what she heard of Eren's and Levi's conversation before her miserably failed attempt to kidnap Eren to save herself.
"Maybe still in the kitchen? I don't know; I was forced to leave as soon as I finished putting everything back... And I didn't even get to eat anything!" Sasha sobbed and continued to mumble to herself, "I'll never understand how Heichou manages to see everything at once. He can prevent me from taking a single bite while keeping Eren from running away. And we both tried so hard, too! Just what is that guy? I hate him! I'm hungry! I'm gonna die without dinner!"
Sasha stopped pitying herself at the sound of cloth hitting water. She looked up to watch as Mikasa, who just discarded her cleaning equipment, headed for the door with a determined look.
"Mi-Mikasa! Where are you going?"
"I need to find out why is Eren angry at me and make use of the situation to him even more angry at the midget for whatever reason I can find. If I'm lucky they'll break up," she replied, the last bit was more said to herself, as she hid her tiny hopeful smile behind her scarf.
"I don't think they're planning to break up anytime soon..." Sasha said and stared after Mikasa as she walked out the door, ignoring her comment. Sasha shook her head and thought, 'If you walk in on them, Eren's just going to be even angrier at you. And Heichou will... just...'
Suddenly her head snapped up before she lounged forward and frantically ran out into the corridor shouting after Mikasa in new-found hope, "Hey, Mikasa! If you end up unable to eat, can I get your food instead?!"
A/N: So against all expectations... ^^;;
Btw, is this even considered as 'kidnapping'...? Whatever... I think the idea was nice but I'm not so sure about how I executed it... ;;
...These are getting out of hand... Maybe I should just put them all together...
