Hanji stared at us, annoyance edging her words.

"My dreams... You all are in them. Why is that so difficult for you to get?"

I swallowed hard and looked at Erwin.

"Hanji. Those... Those are real. There used to be a world where Titans existed. We were part of the," he started, but Hanji cut him off.

"Survey Corps. It's real?!" she demanded. We all nodded.

We watched her eyes calculate and put pieces together. Something clicked. A few seconds later, the bomb burst.

"OHHMIGOD I REMEMBER! Levi and Eren and Erwin and Erd and my Sawney and Bean and all the Titans and the fact that you died Eren and... You know, I'm gonna stop talking about that," she said, notching the death glare Levi was giving her.

I shifted my weight and winced slightly. I really did ache. Levi still had his stamina and if anything, he had gotten bigger in this life. Levi smirked at me and I narrowed my eyes at him, thinking, "It's your turn next time."

Petra walked up towards us. "Hi guys! Ready for school?"

"PEEETTRRAAAAAAA I REMEMBER!" Hanji squealed. Petra stared for a moment then launched herself at the squealing woman, laughing maniacally.

"Hanjiiiii I have my friend back!" Petra yelled in our faces while squeezing Hanji. Erwin somehow got yanked into the hug. Levi and I backed up a little, Levi because he hated hugs, me because I was sore as shit.

The two women were laughing and crying as Petra looked over at me. "Eren, why are you limping?"

I groaned and "limped" away as fast as I could, Erwin's laughter echoing behind me. I heard Hanji yell, "Why do you have a bite mark, too? Levi you animal!"

I pulled up the collar of my jacket to hide the wounded area and thought, 'he is an animal...in bed.'

I walked away from them and turned a corner, only to run into my least favorite person: Scotty.

"Move Jaeger," he snarled. I sidestepped quietly. He stared at me, a sneer splitting his features.

"You look like you're hurting down there, Jaeger," he sneered.

"I actually exercised last night," I said simply. That wasn't a complete lie.

"Riiiiiight. Was he dominant? I'm sure you guys did it right after school too. The parking lot? The soccer field?"

"What?! No!"

"Hah, sure not. I guess you just like to get fucked like a toy. You know, I'm sure one day Levi'll leave your ass. Now that he's gotten his dick in it."

"L...Levi wouldn't do that."

"Mhm. Yeah, sure. Once a dude gets into your pants, I'm sure he'll leave you. But of course, shoving his junk into your ass probably gives him a rush."

He was enjoying this. He was enjoying making fun, making me doubt the love in our relationship, making me hurt from every corner of my heart.

"Oi, what the hell are you talking about?" a snarling voice drifted over my shoulder.

Scotty looked over my shoulder and smirked, "Looky there, you shove your cock up in Jaeger's ass?"

I turned to see Levi looking like he was Ares. His eyes were the dark grey of thunderclouds with lightening. His aura promised death to anyone who touched him. Touched me, actually. He was tensed and I could see the anger in his muscles.

"You want to run that by me again?" Levi asked in a dangerous tone.

"I think you got into his pants. I'm sure he loved it," he sneered, loathing and mockery in every syllable.

Levi suddenly lashed out, every ounce of his carefully controlled anger erupting into an inferno. He smashed his fist into Scotty's nose, making it crack. Scotty screamed and struck back, grabbing Levi's shoulders and trying to flip him over. He tossed Levi up in the air, who pivoted and landed in a crouch, a sneer twisting his face into an inhumane smile, like a Titan's. Levi snarled and lunged forward, grabbing Scotty around the waist and tackling him. I watched in horror as Levi got pinned under Scotty. Levi's eyes locked onto mine. They said, "Stay out of this." The two boys wrestled on the ground, Levi's powerful arms working as they held Scotty off. Levi growled and flipped Scotty over and punched him full in the face.

"Enough!" I heard Petra yell.

"No, Petra-sensei," Levi snarled, wrestling with Scotty.

"ENOUGH!" I never heard Petra yell before.

Levi and Scotty looked at Petra, Scotty's face looking shocked at the shout. Levi's eyes tightened almost imperceptibly and he got up. He stepped back and allowed Scotty to get to his knees. Then he swung back and kicked him, like he had been forced to do to me.

"Rivaille." Petra said sternly. Levi glared at her, but stepped away, grabbing my hand.

"Mock us again, I dare you," he said calmly to Scotty, who was sporting a broken nose and several bruises.

He dragged me away and slammed me against a wall.

"I love you," he hissed, and kissed me full force.

"Levi, why did you beat him up?" I said, gently moving away.

"No one, absolutely NO ONE, hurts you. That's a law," he snarled.

"Levi...," I started hesitantly. His eyes softened slightly.

"I'll always love you, Eren," he whispered. I leaned down and hugged him.

"Thank you," I murmured into his shoulder.

"Anything for you," he replied.

"You know, you deserve a reward," I smirked.

I felt Levi shudder as I finished, "And this time, I'm in control."
