Skull
Disclaimer: I do not own Shingeki no Kyojin
Summary: "I thought I had a thick skull."
"How's it going?"
Petra pulled the cloth down from her face. "Almost done." She turned back to the shelf, wiping off a thick coat of dust. "It's very dirty."
"That's because it hasn't been cleaned properly in years," Levi replied.
Petra came down from the ladder and walked toward him. "Is there anything else you'd like me to do, sir?"
"No." He looked around the library. "The others are on it. You can go to lunch if you'd like."
Petra nodded. "I think I'll do that." She looked at the shelf. "I think I'll grab something to read first." She stretched as far as she could, the tips of her fingers brushing the edge. The book was just out of her reach.
"Should I—" Levi stepped in.
"I got it."
The book slipped and fell to the floor.
They both reached down for it, bumping heads.
"Fuck!" Levi fell to the floor, clutching his head, biting back more curses.
Petra was mortified. "I'm so sorry, Captain Levi!"
He winced, rubbing his forehead. "I thought I had a thick skull."
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine."
"Are you sure?" Petra fretted.
"Yes."
Later that evening as the squad was having dinner, Erd turned to Petra and asked, "Is it true you knocked Captain Levi out with your head this afternoon?"
"I did not knock him out." Petra scowled at Levi, who just casually sipped his tea.
