The next morning..
The light of the sun slightly peeked through the fluttering curtains of the window in Levi's room. It was peaceful in the castle because there weren't any squad members walking around and talking to each other. Hanji was staying over for god knows how long. And Erwin visited them once in a while. There actually where people walking around there, but they mostly cleaned or followed orders, but it was pretty peaceful since they didn't bother Eren or Levi in an either friendly or business attached way.
They just left them be. And They both didn't seem to mind living in their conjoined little bubble for a while. Erwin and Hanji decided to leave them because they lost people that where rather close to them not very long ago..
They weren't really needed anyways.. The survey corps was taking a small break after all the shit that happened because of the last expedition behind the walls. That female titan bitch was going to pay for what she'd done! But later..
Hanji had an all-nighter trying to figure a way out to cure the potion she slipped into Levi's tea without permission.. She couldn't really concentrate because one particular sentence kept slipping back into her mind. 'there will be a moment..' she thought to herself while glaring at the door of her lab. 'That this door.. will swing open with a lot of noise.. ' she snickered at the image that popped up in her mind.
''I wonder.. if he'll be even smaller now'' she laughed at her comment. She smiled.
'It's not even that bad if you think about it..' she was kind of right in a way. She was keeping the best soldier of all alive for a longer time.. And that was amazing! Exactly what she was going for! The experiment was a success! And also..
it fixed another problem only she and he knew about. He told her not long ago. after a lot of whining and pleading and even offering him money and food he finally answered her question! Actually.. she fed him drunk. But she got her answer, which was awesome! Only he wasn't very happy about the fact that she knew.. But she didn't care.. It was kind of obvious too.
''haha.. I've been hearing things Levi..'' She said to the door. She slowly drifted off on her desk..
..
Levi' slowly opened his eyes ''ugh…'' He felt like he had a huge fucking hangover and didn't like it. He put his hand on his forehead.. a fever. How the hell did he get sick? He didn't feel sick at all. He actually felt refreshed!
He wanted to move his other hand but realised he was tightly holding onto something. Afraid that it would be fragile and if he were to let it go now it would drop and break and leave a mess he turned around to see what it was.
''Ah..'' He stared at the figure in front of him. ''E..ren?'' His eyes widened and he shook his head. ''Brat?'' He corrected himself. What was he doing here? What had.. suddenly he remembered. 'Oh god..' he thought to himself.
He pinched the bridge of his nose with his free hand. 'I asked him to stay myself didn't I..' Did he regret his choice? No. But he'd better let it seem like he did though. ''Uhm.. Corporal?'' Levi looked up and saw that Eren woke up.
''Ah, you woke up.. sure took your time shitty brat. Where probably late for breakfast..'' Eren looked out of the window. ''Hmm..'' he replied. He was still very sleepy. ''Now.. What the hell are you still doing here? Leave, I want to change..'' Levi gave Eren his usual bored glare.
''Uhm..'' Eren shifted a little on the chair. ''don't do that.. you'll dirty my chair.. now, LEAVE'' Levi demanded.
'Come on leave shithead or I'll..'
Eren looked away a little. Levi kept glaring at Eren. Eren breathed in and out to calm himself down. Then turned back to Levi. ''Corporal could you please let go of my shirt? I don't want to embarrass you or.. just.. You look so different! And.. younger!..'' Eren was struggling with words. Levi yanked his hand back and broke the eye contact immediately.
He remembered what had happened the other day. He quickly returned to his normal self and turned back to Eren. ''Go to your room and get dressed.. Then we'll go and see Hanji!'' ''Yes sir!'' Eren replied. And he finally left.
Levi sighed.. 'hormones..' he told himself. 'I am now.. 17. I don't feel 17..' he thought to himself. He walked over to the mirror and saw a brat. Not a guy or a man. He saw a brat. Only this brat had all of his features.
His raven hair. His grey eyes. His awfully creepy glare. His undercut. It was definitely him.
He sighed again. ''So It's real..'' he told himself. 'I didn't look like this back then though..' He decided not to think about that. He tried on his clothes which still fitted perfectly fine. Which ment he didn't change in lengt for 11 years. 'Fucking vegetables..' he told himself.
It was handy though. He didn't have to borrow new clothes. Although.. The sleeves where a little bit too long.. The pants where fine though.
He rolled up his sleeves and put on his gear. He then slit on his jacked. That's where the problem was. 'I can't roll up these sleeves.. great' He headed out anyways. First picking up Eren from his room and then to the shitty bitch that caused all of these problems.
...
''HANJI!'' the door swung open with a loud bang as it slammed against the wall. Two bottles fell from a rack startling both Eren and Levi. Levi decided not to apologize. ''Get you fat fucking ass of off the damn chair and get over here you filthy bitch!'' Levi demanded.
Eren kind of felt sorry for Hanji. She just woke up from her nap and turned around. She stretched out and let out a big yawn. She stared at Levi. ''Slacking off huh? You should be working on an antidote shitty glasses'' She stood up from the table and walked over to them.
Other than the huge smirk on her face Eren noticed a couple of dribbles on her cheek. She probably slept on some paperwork since they were mirrored.
''Ah! Levi, good morning! I see puberty is already kicking in! How fascinating!'' She said happily while writing something in her little notebook. Levi gritted his teeth but decided not to respond to her comment.
''So.. When will this-'' He pointed at himself ''be fixed?!'' He asked. Hanji hesitated for a moment, the dark aura around Levi frightened her a little bit. ''In 11 years you'll be back to normal!'' She said happily. Levi's yaw dropped. He just stood there staring. After a little while Eren broke the silence. ''So there is nothing you can do?!'' Hanji shook her head.
''I don't even know how.. I came up with this formula in the first place..'' Eren turned his attention to Levi. Levi was staring at the floor with wide eyes and a confused expression.
''Cor..poral?'' Levi turned his head to Eren. ''Wha..?'' Was the only thing he could bring out. Eren had never seen his corporal in such a state before. He wasn't his usual calm self right now. ''Are you okay sir?''
Levi stared for a moment, his face coated in disbelieve. Then he just walked out of the room in a fast pace. He slammed the door shut and some other bottles dropped on the floor and broke. ''S-sir?!'' Eren headed to the door just tobe stopped by Hanji.
''Eren..'' Eren turned around his eyes watering. ''Is there really nothing we can do?!'' He screamed at her. ''I'm..'' Hanji looked at the floor. ''So sorry Eren..''
Eren just stared at her. He clenched his fist. ''You know what?! Fuck you!'' With that he left Hanji alone in her lab. Slamming the door breaking the last two bottles standing. ''What a mess..'' Hanji said to herself.
Levi was pacing around the entire castle with no particular coal. He didn't care about the weird glares he got from the people walking around there. They wouldn't even dare to ask him fucking questions now. And if they would. He'd probably not be kind to them.
When he left the castle to go pace outside a little he finally managed to completely calm himself again. He sat down against one of the tree's and glared at some sticks on the ground with his usual bored expression.
He looked at the sleeves of his jacket. They were almost covering his entire hand only the tips of his fingers peeked out from the opening. He sighed. He stretched his arms in front of him to look again. It changed nothing.
'I can't keep on walking around like this..' he sighed again.
''I look ridiculous..''
''I think it looks kinda cute.''
Levi turned around to see where the voice was coming from. It was Eren. He plopped down next to Levi.
Levi glared at him for a while then turned his atention back to his sleeves. For some odd reason he.. didn't mind. Normally he'd tell everyone to fuck off and go be a shitty person somewhere else.. But he kind of needed comfort right now.
''You do?'' he asked while looking at his sleeves again. His comment surprised Eren. He was expecting some kind of insult. He was lucky today.
''I have to age all over again now huh?'' Levi said more to himself than to Eren. Eren answered anyways. ''Looks like it, yeah.''
Levi turned his face to Eren and gave him an angry glare. Eren just giggled. ''It's the truth though!'' Levi's expression softened, he turned his head to look at his sleeves again. ''I don't mind it though. It's always fun to have someone your own age around you.'' Eren smiled.
''Even though you are only my age on the outside. It feels like we can get a little closet this way'' Eren's word's got Levi of guard.
''You.. want to get closer?'' He asked. Levi wanted to hit himself for the question he just asked. But he was carious though.
''Of course! Let's.. be friends!'' Eren smiled and stretched out his hand in front of Levi. Levi just glared at it. Eren quickly pulled it back. ''haha, sorry.. that must have been weird..'' he blushed a little.
''I am still two years older than you..'' Levi stated changing the subject. ''Yeah your right..'' Eren replied.
'It doesn't seem like it though' He chuckled at his thought. Levi indeed looked smaller and younger.. For some odd reason he felt like ''mom'ing'' all over him. Was this what Mikasa felt for him?
Eren looked at Levi's face. It was his usual bored glare but sadness clouded over it, ''I hate it when she does these kind of things.. shitty glasses..'' The more Levi thought about it the more.. He started to feel depressed all over again.
'He looks so fragile..' Eren thought to himself. And for some odd reason his body just moved on Its own..
I wonder what's going to happen.. Oh wait! I know already.
Don't worry things aren't going to move too fast between them. I love a little build up so it is going to take some time. ^^
Hope you enjoyed peopleys! C ya!
