Eren's P.O.V.
The final bell rang, warning any other rebel students who were not in the room were now late for class. Mr. Oluo sighed and threw his magazine, which, may I add, should not be on the premises, into a drawer and slammed it shut. He walked up to the front of the room and cleared his throat, silencing the rest of my talkative piers. Mr. Oluo began to speak,
"O.K. you filthy brats! We have a new student joining us today. He transferred here from who-knows-where, nor do I care, and decided to come to this pigsty of a school. His name is Levi Acker- OW!"
Mr. Oluo had bit his tongue, which made my moronic classmates start laughing. I, personally, was amazed. This was a new record for him! This early in the morning? Bravo! I was tempted to clap. Just then, the door opened, which drew everyone's attention away from the poor excuse we had for a teacher. The male who walked in made a noise that sounded irritated.
"Tch."
He walked into the classroom.
"I hope you are going to clean up that blood. I can't stand messes."
Mr. Oluo looked up and shot the male, who I presumed was Levi, a glare. I wasn't particularly interested, unlike my other classmates. The view from my window was very pretty in the mornings, and there was a blue jay in the nearby tree. Mr. Oluo huffed and attempted speech, which only made him sound even more stupid.
"Bra-s, -his is We-I A-er-man. We-I, in-o-uce -u-self."
"I presume you wish for me to introduce myself to the class?"
Mr. Oluo nodded and stomped back noisily to his desk, all the while glaring at any other students who "dare laugh at him". Though it was already a given that they would.
"Tch. How irritating."
I thought to myself, No kidding. Then, I finally got a good look at him.
Oh my...
Levi was shorter then the average person, but was extremely well built. I could see that through the shirt he was wearing easily. He was on the pale side, with black raven hair styled into an undercut and parted perfectly. He wore no emotions on his face. But when I looked into his eyes, I was sucked in. He had the most beautiful, yet cold, blue-gray eyes I had ever seen. It was as if he could read people like a book.
"Oi."
All whispers ceased, and the attention was brought back to the front.
"I don't want to have to deal with any of you brats. Just stay out of my way and you'll be fine."
How could someone so handsome be that rude? I wondered.
But, then again, it fit his profile.
Levi looked over at Mr. Oluo and asked,
"Where do I sit?"
Mr. Oluo looked over the class, and found the only seat available.
The one right next to me.
"You can sit by Eren over in the corner. Eren, raise your hand so Levi knows where to sit."
Levi's P.O.V.
"Where do I sit?" I asked the pathetic teacher.
He scanned the room for a second and said,
"You can sit over by Eren in the corner. Eren, raise your hand so Levi knows where to sit."
I looked over, and a girl raised her hand.
My eyes widened a bit, as I looked over at my new neighbor.
The girl, who was called Eren, had long chocolate hair that fell just below her shoulders. She looked to be fairly tall, but not that much taller then me. But what got me wasn't that. It was her eyes. They were a blue-green that blended together in a never-ending battle for dominance. Gold flecks dusted the edges of her irises. But there was a sad look in her eyes. As if she had been through so much pain.
I could relate, in a way.
I silently made my way over to the neighboring desk beside her. Our eyes locked and it felt like the world was just slowly slipping away, and all that mattered was us. Later on, I would question myself on how I managed to get to my desk without looking like a fool, but that didn't matter now.
*cough*
The small, fragile connection we had was brutally severed, and we both looked back up to the teacher.
Mr. Oluo said,
"Well, I doubt Levi here knows his way around the school yet, so why don't you, Eren, help Levi out for today? You're both excused for the rest of the classes.
I was slightly surprised, but I didn't show it.
This beautiful girl is going to guide me around all day? My luck couldn't get any better!
Eren nodded and stood up, grabbed her bag, and gestured for me to follow suit.
But why make me go to all of the trouble to walk over here if you're going to make me get back up again the next instant? What a waste of time. He obviously didn't possess a shred of common sense.
As we walked out of the door, I could hear whispers from those idiotic brats that I now have to call my classmates. Great.
"Wow! Eren is so lucky!"
"Man, I wish I could show Levi around."
"Such a shame, I hope he doesn't fall for her like everyone else."
Well, aren't you little Miss Priss?
I looked over at Eren, who seemed a little miffed at the things she was hearing.
She just hurried out of the door and headed, I presumed, to where the lockers were.
Eren's P.O.V.
Geez, my classmates can just be a pack of fools sometimes.
I had a tendency to just forget everything my classmates say about me, because that wouldn't be good for my ego. I had a pretty healthy ego, maybe a little less then what it should be, but hey, it's the small things.
I started walking over to my locker, and placed my bag inside. I turned around and asked that should-be-behind-bars-for-how-handsome-he-looks-because-it-should-be-illegal-beacuase-girls-are-dropping-dead-from-nosebleeds boy who stood behind me,
"Where's your locker?"
Nice! I actually sound cool and collected! Well done, Eren!
He just looked at me and said in a monotone,
"I don't have one yet. or, at least, no one has told me which one it is."
"Did you get the 'Welcome' packet?"
"Yes, why?"
"There should be a small slip of paper with your locker number and pass-code in it. Did you look through it yet?"
"No, they just gave it to me and said, 'Have fun! Hope you can figure that thing out!' and left me to my own devices."
I sighed.
"Geez, this school is going to go down the drain at this rate. Anyway, let me see it, if you don't mind."
Levi just kept looking at me and brought out the packet from his bag.
I looked through it until I found the scratch paper. My eyes widened a bit.
Can my luck get any better?! There must be a price to pay for such luck. Though, this might be the reward for having such BAD luck throughout my entire life.
The number on the locker read: 222.
"Well, it looks like you are right next to me," I said, with a bit of wonder in my voice.
"You're joking."
I looked up and saw he was a little surprised as well. But you could only see it if you looked carefully into his eyes.
"No, seriously, look."
I handed him the piece of paper, and he just kept staring at it.
"Well, that saves us the trouble of having to go search for it. Why don't you go ahead and place your bag into your locker so we can go ahead and start the tour?"
Levi just shrugged and opened up the locker next to mine. After he placed his bag in, he stuffed the passcode into his pocket and turned to me with those gorgeous eyes.
"Alright. Should we get going?"
I nodded and we both started walking down the hall. What Eren didn't realize was that her headache had gone away.
