After school found Eren in the club room with the others, listening to Hanji rant and rage about Levi's new toy.
"I've known this bitch for months and all she wants is a good dick to jump on!" Everyone stared at her completely shocked as Molbit was hiding his face. Apparently, if you piss Hanji off enough, her language slips down to Levi profanity.
"Hanji, please calm down." Hanji turned on her boyfriend quicker than a cat does when you try to give it a bath.
"Calm down? Levi has a perfectly good boyfriend! He has no reasons to accept a sluts offer!" She bit out bitterly. Eren blushed lightly.
"Hanji." Eren said, causing the bespectacled teen to turn to him. "Levi said that if someone was dating him to fuck, he was going to dump them immediately." Hanji just stared at Eren for a second.
"When did he say that?" Eren crossed his arms as he leaned back in his desk.
"This morning when I flipped out on him for having another fling." Eren said, and he couldn't help the bitter tone that peppered his voice. "If she's really only dating him for a fuck, he's not going to keep her around." Hanji nodded as Eren's phone went off. He automatically answered. "Hallo?"
"... What the fuck? Do you mean hello?"
"No, I mean Hallo. It's hello in German."
"Son of a bitch, is everything is German with you?" Eren just sat there for a second.
"Hola." He could hear the irritated sigh.
"Spanish? Really? Anything else you wanna fucking throw at me?" Eren sat in thought.
"Sup buttercup." The line was quiet, as was the room. "Too much?"
"Holy fuck I'm dating an idiot." Eren frowned.
"Well sorry for not feeling like whipping out another language." Eren huffed before continuing. "Hello Levi."
"That's better you shit. Listen, there's this movie coming out this weekend that I want to go see that focused more to the cock owning crowd. I don't feel like going out alone and since you're the only one I'm dating that has a cock, I thought I'd ask you." Eren smiled a little. This must have been Levi's indirect way of asking Eren to go on a date with him. Eren then hummed.
"Tempting offer Levi, but is it only a movie?" Eren could almost see Levi roll his eyes.
"If you're expecting dinner and a movie, you can shove that romantic shit up your ass." Eren couldn't help but chuckle.
"I didn't think of anything romantic. Fast food isn't romantic unless you're sharing a shake and hope half the calories don't go to your thighs." Levi was quiet for a second.
"Fast food is disgusting."
"Never said it wasn't. Fine then, why don't we go to the supermarket, buy some apples, eat them and throw the cores at mushy couples. Apples are biodegradable so it's not like we're doing any harm." The room of club members sat quiet and stared as Eren did his thing.
"Throw in some raspberries and you got yourself a date, Jaeger." Eren smiled and put up a quick victory sign to his friends.
"Then it's a date." And the call was over. Hanji burst out laughing while Sasha just stared.
"How dare you threaten to waste food!" She said in slight horror. Eren chuckled.
"It's not wasting if it's garbage." He replied. Armin and Marco shook their heads while Mikasa sighed and the others just sat there saying nothing.
"So, what movie are you going to see?" Hanji asked. Eren just shrugged.
"Don't know, don't care. It's a date with Levi a week after our last one. This is good in fixing him up." No one said anything as the president looked at the clock. "And if I'm going to be able to pay for anything, I need to get home and jump on chores. Members of the Player Breaker Club, this meeting is over and we will continue operations as planned. Remember that our monthly check is Wednesday, so get ready to report." And Eren left the club room with Armin and Mikasa close behind.
"Eren." Mikasa said as they left the school grounds. "It's been three weeks since Levi and I. Am I allowed back in the field?" She asked. Eren looked to her and thought about it. She was fine within the week. She always bounced back quickly, but Eren knew that it wore on the mind.
He always gave a minimum of a month for the members of the club to get over a break up, and there was no maximum time. Even if everything felt fine two days after, Eren didn't want to risk hurting them to much and forcing them into a relationship or a player assignment. Mikasa still had one week before he'd let her get assignments, and then another week before he even considers letting her get an assignment that may go relationship status.
"No Mikasa." Eren said. The gray eyed girl frowned.
"Why not? I can't be much use if I'm just on player watch." Eren sighed as he rubbed his temples. Armin sighed as well, grabbing his iPod to listen to some books he had downloaded.
"You are a huge amount of help and you know that Mikasa. We need to know when another player is added to the board. That's important and you know it."
"Armin, Krista, and Bert are better at it then I am and-"
"Mikasa." Eren interrupted. "I know you do better in the field, but it's still too soon for you-"
"And it's not too soon for you?" She asked. Eren glared at her.
"What's that supposed to mean?" He asked. He had stopped walking, causing Mikasa to do the same and unfortunately for Armin, he noticed and stopped as well.
"You aren't ready for this Eren. Levi's not changing anytime soon and you're wasting your time. And you aren't ready for that heartbreak when he tosses you to the curb like trash. You're only going to get hurt. Break up with him before he breaks up with you." Eren clenches his fists and jaw. Armin is standing off to the side, watching in horror and barely listening to the voice reading him Shakespeare's Hamlet.
"I don't need you protecting me from this Mikasa. It's a part of growing up and being a teenager! And unlike the rest of you, I'm not going to give up on him! According to the records in the club room, Levi only dumped Molbit and Sasha. Everyone other member he's been through had dumped HIM! And that's one reason he's becoming so hard to break! Each break up solidifies his belief that love doesn't exist! And why does everyone seem to think I need to change him? Everyone other player is breaking the player, not them. But with Levi, everyone says that he needs change! Levi doesn't need to be changed! He's fine the way he is! He just needs to acknowledge that love is a real thing! After that, he won't WANT to hurt anyone else!"
"How are you even sure?" Mikasa stepped up to Eren. "The rest of us dumped him because it was a failing relationship and we saw it-"
"You didn't even try!" Eren snapped, eyes locked dangerously with Mikasa's. "He cheated once and you were done! You didn't TRY to work with him! How do you expect him to break if you give up on him before you even start! None of you tried to be his friend, you just wanted him broken and when it didn't work, you stopped trying. You deemed him unbreakable. All of you did! You can help anyone else, you can break anyone else, but Levi Ackerman's a lost cause because... why?"
"He has other fli-"
"So hasn't others." Eren countered. Armin watched. Mikasa was fighting a losing battle, but she didn't seem to notice. She tried reason after reason, but it was all countered by Eren who brought up examples of people who had those problems too but were still broken.
"He's not going to change Eren!" Mikasa repeated. Eren finally sighed. He was done with her bitching and not listening, so he did the one thing he knew would get her attention. He smacked her forehead with his own. She automatically covered the spot and looked at him with surprised eyes. Eren looked back at her with determination.
"Listen Mikasa. I'm not out to change Levi. The PBC is to help players realize what they're doing and how much it hurts them and everyone around them, and then put them on the path to fixing it. Changing someone makes them not themselves. We want them to keep their personalities and such, but not playing with people's hearts. Yeah, sometimes they're a douche even without being a player, and they find other ways to hurt the people around them. We can't change that, it's the world we live in. But we're trying to make it a little better. I'm not going to give up on Levi, I've just started working with him. He's not going to be perfect, but with Hanji's help, I should be able to get somewhere. I'm not doing this alone. So have some fucking faith in me Mikasa. I'll be fine." Mikasa huffed.
"Fine." She said and they all started to walk again.
"And you still can't be put back on field duty until next week." Mikasa sighed.
"Fine." She said. Armin sensed the drop in tension and pulled his headphones out after pausing his book.
"So, when am I going into the field?" Armin asked. Eren chuckled as he turned to his shorter friend.
"When I find someone I know won't tear you apart." Armin pouted.
"Hey, what does that mean?" Eren chucked again.
"I mean you're adorable and I want to send you after a player I know isn't going to try and jump you or abuse your brain." Armin sighed.
"You just know I'm good at watching people from afar and gathering data." Eren put an arm around Armin.
"That's true, but if it helps you, I think Marco's having some problems with Pferdefresse. I might have you go in on friendship status." Eren said. Armin smiled.
"Really?" Eren nodded.
"I don't like the guy, but I can see that you two might get along some what." And with that, the three friends were happy with what was currently happening in their lives.
Pferdefresse= horseface
I needed to get in Mikasa being overprotective and I thought this would be a perfect place to implement it. Yes, Mikasa agreed that Levi could only be broken of being a player by Eren, but it's Mikasa. So yeah... and I'm sorry if I'm spoon feeding a lot to you or there are long monologues, but it's the only way I can think to get some points across.
