Levi's POV:

" So that's what you remembered? So you and Petra have known each other since middle school??" Eren said as he dug a hand through his hair. " Yes," I replied while picking up the daffodil I left on the ground.

" I was so oblivious to all the signs... It was obvious she loved me." I whispered. " Y-yet I..." I whispered as my grip on my legs tightened. I laid my chin on my knee caps and sighed.

" hey..." Eren said softly. I looked over at him and he gave me a forced reassuring smile. " It wasn't your fault for anything... You were only 12 and you were put in a situation like that... Plus, Petra was only 12 too. She probably didn't know the first thing about consent. Though, it was still wrong of her to still nearly force a kiss out of you." He laughed slightly. I hummed in response and breathed out a puff of air and felt another breeze passing by me and Eren. I winced at the cold sensation and rubbed the sides of my arms. If only it was spring I thought to myself.

" So that's all you remember about Petra?" Eren questioned me.

" Y-yes that's all," I replied with a strained voice. I was trying my hardest to keep my teeth from chattering. " Hmm..." Eren replied.

" Well, I'm sorry that happened to you." He whispered. I exhaled a cold puff of air through my nostrils before replying to Eren. " It's Fine" I muttered.

If anything I wish I could remember more. From my memories, she seemed like a nice girl. I wonder how she is now. She clearly doesn't go to Maria High, so where could she be? Could she be at our sister school? Rose high? Sheena Academy? I guess I'll never know. But, if I do get a chance to see her again... I'll have to say sorry for what I've done. I'll say sorry for the hurt I caused her. She didn't deserve it. She was only a kid in love... But why was she in love with me?

" Hey Levi," Eren said, interrupting my thoughts.

" Huh? Oh, uh, Yeah Eren?" I said.

" I don't know if you've noticed but you're shivering. Plus, there's goosebumps on your arms. Maybe you should roll down the sleeves of your flannel shirt." Eren nervously laughed. " Oorrr~," The brunette said with a roll of his tongue. " You can wear your scarf to keep you warm." I gave him a disgusted look while rolling down my sleeves.

" Ew, no."

" It's clearly obvious your cold."

" So? I'm still not wearing my germ-infested scarf." I muttered under my breath. Eren sighed and rolled his green eyes. " You're so dramatic." He groaned while cocking his head back against the trunk of the tree that was behind us.

" And, is there really a problem with that?" I said with an arched brow. " No," Eren states calmly.

I sighed in response and let my mind fall into a sea of thoughts. I kept thinking about Petra and when I pushed her. She must have been devastated. I never truly meant to shove her, it just took me out of surprise... And, to think that Ere knew her too. The way he described her. She must have been a good friend to him if she left that big of mark on him. Actually, now that I think about it... When did she and Eren meet? It can't be in middle school because I don't think Eren went to mine. It should be high school. But, if it's high school wouldn't she be at this school? No, she wouldn't... Would she? Wait, but I never saw her at this school so... Wouldn't that mean Eren is a transfer? I feel like he told me this before... Maybe in the hospital? I don't really remember.

" Hey Eren," I called at the brunette. " Hm?" Eren replied with a turn of his head. " You said you used to be friends with Petra right?" Eren gave me a perplexed face before nodding his head yes. " Well, when did you first meet her," I questioned him
