A/N: I decided to edit this chapter, sorry that I haven't updated in an inappropriate amount of time - got lazy. I will try to update atleast once or twice a month from now on. This is also my first fic and I have no real plan or plot for what I want to happen, so I'll pretty much just be making it up as I write. Thank you.
Sniggers from behind him caused Eren to jerk his head up, realising with discomfort that his hand and cheek were grossly damp. A quiet gasp of surprise escaped his mouth and he hastily wiped the drool from his cheek and mouth, glancing around to check if anyone had seen him. They had.
Jean Kirschtein and a couple of others were putting up a poor effort of stifling their laughter, and this didn't go unnoticed by their professor.
The room slowly quietened down and by the time that Reiner Braun realised, he was the only person in the entire room still daring to breathe.
"Care to share the joke Mr Braun?" their professor Keith Shadis - a visibly aged man with deep set eyes and a habit of cussing students out, inquired in a dangerously calm tone. Reiner perfectly resembled a deer in headlights undergoing a colonoscopy and swallowed before answering
"I think Jean could better answer your question sir," in a clear voice that didn't reflect his terror.
All eyes turned to Jean and there were a few tuts around the room and Reiner knew he would be getting shit for this for a long time, a point further proven by the look Jean shot him. He looked capable of murder at this point. Professor Shadis raised one eyebrow
Relatively unfazed by this, Jean tossed up a few possible responses before deciding. "Eren Jaeger is making an ass of himself as usual sir, we were just watching him drown in his own drool." Almost the entire room broke out in laughter, Jean and Professor Shadis remained serious whilst Eren whirled around and glared at the "fucking horse faced ugly shit head" and compiled a list of all the different ways he could (and would) mangle his face.
The theatre quickly quietened down after the professor cleared his throat. "Eren Jaeger," booming reality ripped Eren around as he made eye contact with the professor. The professor that wasn't HIS professor.
"Oh. Oh shit" Kirschtein forgotten, Eren's usually sun kissed face was bleached of colour.
"Why doesn't that name sound familiar to me, could it be because you're not REGISTERED IN THIS CLASS!?" The class collectively shrunk into their seats and thanked their lucky stars they weren't the recipients of the impending tirade. After several minutes of complete silence, footsteps echoed through the lecture theatre, ricocheting off every wall until they came to a halt.
The following fifteen minutes were simultaneously beneficial yet dull for Levi (kind of like every other lecture) as he learnt some choice insults and swears from Shadis's astounding vernacular. He filled the first few lines of his previously untouched notebook with his favourites whilst drifting in and out of focus.
After many minutes of shouting, Levi realised he had no idea who the recipient was. It didn't surprise him as he hardly took any interest in most people, but he really needed to know who could have possibly been so daft as to have walked into the wrong lecture, not noticed, and actually fallen asleep.
He felt an odd respect for the brat, enduring such harsh public embarrassment without running out crying. Jean beside was shaking with laughter – which in turn made their seat shake which was really fucking annoying, as Eren turned around to glare at him briefly before he was reprimanded by Professor Shadis.
Levi stiffened and his eyes widened, albeit slightly, as he realised who the dumbass was. His hair was even messier from behind; the mussy hazelnut birds nest of natural highlights, un-brushed but clean hair was trailing a few centimetres over the back of his neck.
Feeling the a familiar, unparalleled glare burning the nape of his neck, Eren felt ill when he couldn't turn around and identify the perpetrator, it was making him physically uncomfortable not being able to know who was staring at him and being publicly humiliated by a middle aged man.
Thankful for the end of a lecture like never before, something Eren never thought possible after the time Professor Dok talked about utilitarianism in the 9th century, after a few finishing insults from Shadis, he practically sprinted out of the room. Levi paused from packing away his stationery to watch the lanky teens' body disappear through the door, and resumed with the ghost of a memory of a smile on his lips.
