Half and Half (Oblivious!Eren x Reader x Slight!Yandere Levi)

Sleepless Night

"Why isn't anyone helping me?"

"Please... Someone... Anyone?"

"Is there anyone?"

Levi jolted upwards, panicking for a brief moment, sweating from his head to his neck. He panted, calming his nerves. He realized that it was still nighttime. His curtains were drawn and his candle light had burnt out. It was dark, he could barely see anything. Levi looks around until his vision matched the darkness'. He closes his tired eyes and exhaled a sigh. He frowned, thinking of his recent dream. Just before he'd awaken, there you were, tied up, crying under him, pleading for help and mercy. Pleading for Eren. 

Eren...

Eren.....

Eren......

That was all he heard. Apart from the screams, apart from the cries, all he heard was Eren's name calling out.

"Why...?" Levi murmured to himself, staring at his sweat covered palm.

"Why would I do such a cruel thing?" He thought.

"Tch!" Levi tightly closed his eyes, running his hair through his fingers. 

It was true, alright. He was experiencing nightmares that wouldn't leave him be. And he has no idea why they haunt him. Levi couldn't deal with the nightmares, so he headed downstairs to the cafeteria with a lit candle and sat there throughout the night, fighting hard to stay awake. He shook his head to avoid drowsiness. He splashed a cold cup of water in his face to keep up with the night. Nothing would work. If Levi were to fall asleep again, who knows what other nightmares could he possibly see.

"Man, I'm starving, I could eat a horse!" In the morning, Hanji made her way into the kitchen.

She takes out the butter and bread, waltzing out the door and into the cafeteria, only to drop the wasted food after seeing a collapsed Levi.

"What the---" Hanji rushes over to him, taking off her cozy sweater and wrapping it over his shoulders.

"You're cold!!" Hanji picked up his upper body and felt his head to check for any fever.

Hanji could feel the wetness of his collar. His eyes were forming dark circles underneath. It seemed like he was peacefully asleep. 

"Levi... Levi wake up..." Hanji softly whispers, shaking him.

Levi began mumbling words, possibly talking in his sleep.

"Levi." Hanji called to him.

His whispers gradually became audible and clear.

"Different.....Everyone.... Stay...."

"Levi!" Hanji shouts, causing the raven-haired man to gasp and jolt upwards, smashing his head against her forehead.

Levi grasped tightly onto Hanji's collar, not wanting to let go. His eyes were widely opened only for a second before they were closed again.

"Get away from me-" Levi roughly pushes the woman away from him as he rubs his eye in frustration.

Dammit! I fuckin' fell asleep!

"Levi, are you alright?" Hanji asked.

"Of course I---" Right after he sat up, he was brought back down, due to dizziness.

"Whoa there!" Fortunately, Hanji catches him in time.

"Hanji.... I'm seeing things... Things that I don't like...." Levi clenched onto her shirt once more, trembling.

"Ah, it must be the damage that has been done to your brain, Levi---"

"Don't make such lame excuses, that's not the right answer..." He sighed.

"I'm doing abnormal things to her..."

"Who?"

"(First)... I dreamt of keeping her locked in a room... It's creepy..." He replied.

"(First)? What? That's ridiculous!" Hanji nervously responded.

"Isn't it?" Levi slowly picked up his two feet and returned Hanji's sweater.

He began making his way out of the cafeteria.

"H-Hey! Where are you going??" Hanji shouted.

"I'm going to that blonde idiot." 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hmm." You hummed in frustration and annoyance.

"What's wrong?" Eren asked, tilting his head.

"I can't sleep. I don't know why..." You yawned.

"Oh......" Eren turns away, searching for a solution or answer.

"(First)! I remembered picking up a book in the 'libary'." Eren stated.

"Yeah? What is it?" You closed your eyes in tiredness.

"The book says that there's a... M-Myth about people who have trouble sleeping." 

"Oh?"

"Yea... It says that if you are having trouble sleeping, it must be that you were in someone's dream that time." Eren looked back to see that you had fallen fast asleep. In surprise, he watched you relax in your bed.

"I'm sorry, (First)... I won't do it again."
