Sorry it is short right now. This chapter will get longer. I promise. I've been kinda neglecting my stories, but I'll try to be better about that. I don't really know where exactly I want to go with this so if you have any comments on how I could improve, that would be great. :) Do enjoy.
I somehow clawed my way up the stairs to the washroom. There was a bucket of water in the corner. Hanji San probably got it out of pity for her poor little guinea pig. Most likely, she left it there when she saw me go out. That was hours ago. The water was ice cold then. That was fine by me. I stripped down and dumped the whole thing on my head gratefully. Water dripped from my hair onto the floor. As I'm now still drinking in the refreshing moment of reprieve, muffled noises break my sweet serenity. I whip around to pin point the sounds, and there, silhouetted against the door frame, was the last person on Earth I was expecting to see. Captain Levi. His sour expression dares me to oppose his presence. I stare rather awkwardly. What in the hell should I say? Luckily, I don't have to drown in surprise for very long.
"Well?! What are you standing there gaping at? Put on your damn clothes for God's sake Eren, I'd rather not have to tolerate your indecency much longer."
His voice is angry but I don't think his heart is in it. He made a mistake.
As I tug on my pants it dawns on me. What the hell has the world come to if Levi calls me by my given name?
"You just called me Eren, sir?"
He rolled his eyes in irritation. Maybe he actually doesn't care, or maybe he saw the error too, either or, he wouldn't be telling me this.
"Is the world ending if I did? I can call you whatever I very well please Jaeger, or would you rather I called you it?"
It wasn't an actual question, so it didn't merit a response and I didn't want another fight. It still made me grit my teeth as I pulled my shirt over my head though.
"Did you come for something Sir?"
"What, you think you own the place? I can't go in a room if you're in it, is that it?"
My hand slipped on my belt straps. The leather fell off my hips, and to the stone floor.
"You-"
I bite my lip. Even if I'm angry, I can't just talk back to him. He's my superior. He'll have my ass handed to me on a platter. Despite my rational thoughts, I was still pissed. I could almost feel his criticizing smirk from here. You don't just hate me Levi, you detest my existence. I'm everything you fight against, everything you can't stand. You don't just hate me because I'm a Titan. You hate me because I'm not perfect like you. Well, I'll show you that you aren't so above humanity either.
