Complications Throughout Generations

Chapter 133

Eren's POV:

Once Jean was conscious, the 5 of us decided to go to his house to hang. Jean was still upset that he lost but what did he expect? We pulled up to his house the same time as Jean and Armin so we all walked in together and then down to the basement. We all sat across the long leather couch that sat in front of the large TV. Reiner was in the middle with his arms spread across the top of the couch, Jean was laying face down on the ground as Armin went upstairs to fetch him an ice pack for his throbbing head, and Levi was almost asleep with his head on my lap. I didn't sleepover last night which means he won't sleep. It's not that he doesn't want to, his body just physically won't allow him to if I'm not there. It's a safety thing. So he's been up for quite some time. He took my hand to put it over his and moved them underneath his head as a pillow.

"You comfortable?" I whispered. He nodded with his eyes closed. "Tired?" He nodded again. "Love you."

"Love you too." He whispered back.

Armin eventually came downstairs with an ice pack, Advil, and a water bottle.

"Jean," he bent down and got on his knees to reach Jean's level. He tapped on his shoulder, causing Jean to whine, "I got you Advil and an ice pack."

He stretched his arms and bent his back, staying on the ground with a loud groan to follow. "Thanks, babe." He took what Armin had gotten for him and accepted them graciously. "Fuck you, Jaeger. How long have you been doing this shit?"

"Couple months or so. Reiner does it too."

"Then you both suck. Levi, do you fight?"

"He doesn't." I answered for him, knowing he doesn't want to be bothered.

"That's surprising."

"I don't want him involved with Kenny."

"What's wrong with Kenny?"

"He's my uncle." Levi said with his cheek pressed against our joined hands. "Kenny the Ripper. The one that killed a bunch of MPs."

"That's your uncle? Makes sense actually. Cold attitude, acts smarter than everyone, but definitely knows how to kill someone."

"You're lucky I'm tired, otherwise you'd be unconscious again by now." Levi yawned and cuddled up in my lap some more. Absolutely adorable.

We all continued to stay in silence. We were all exhausted. This can get a bit draining. Reiner hasn't lost yet only because Kenny hasn't thrown a lot of muscle at him the way he has at me. It's just so he can get to Levi. I've been failing at keeping them apart miserably. I really don't want Kenny asking Levi if he wants to fight because truthfully, I'm afraid he'll say yes. It's no secret that Levi is a fighter and he'll take whatever chance he can get. Zeke was the biggest example of that. In my opinion, there was absolutely no reason for Levi to attack Zeke the way he did. Levi can hold his own as it is when it comes to a verbal argument so what was the point of him getting physical? Absolutely nothing. He thrives off of violence. So if he starts, he won't want to stop and god forbid Kenny throws the wrong guy at him.

I looked down at Jean and Armin on the ground. Jean's head was in Armin's lap as he played with his hair. Jean tapped on Armin's arm and they looked at each other with the same thought in mind. They both got up without a word and went upstairs.

"Did you guys ever talk?" Reiner asked once the door closed.

"Long story short, Mikasa is a booty call but he has hope because of their past. Did you know their kid was named Scarlet?"

"Yes." Reiner and Levi said at the same time.

"Well anyway. That's his thing with Mikasa. Thanks to you," I looked at Reiner, "he keeps seeing Marco where you left him when they're fucking."
