Levi was angry, he really was. For the past few weeks he had been trying to draw out whatever secret Eren was hiding from him, but all his questions got him were a lot of 'what are you talking about' s and 'There's nothing wrong' s and it was driving Levi crazy. Not to mention that Eren had just placed his drink on his bedside table without a coaster. Usually Levi was so calm and composed, but tonight he was burning with anger he had accumulated over those few weeks and it seemed that everything kind of pissed him off. He sighed deeply and ran his hands through his hair.

"What's wrong?" Eren asked, he was so oblivious, so, so oblivious and somehow that only aggravated him more. Levi clenched his fists. He ignored the question. If he talked then he was going to yell, and it wouldn't end pretty. Levi continued attempting to read his book, but he ended up just staring angrily at the pages. Eren seemed to catch on that Levi was mad at him because;

"Have I done something?" His eyes looked worried and Levi wanted to start a fight, he wanted to yell, he wanted Eren to feel bad. But Levi knew he was scary when he yelled and to be honest although he wanted Eren to hurt right now, he knew he would regret it as soon as he had said the words.

"What did I do?" Eren's voice was a little desperate and the continuous questions finally led Levi to give up.

"Your cup." He couldn't say the other one it would only make it worse.

"My cup?" Eren asked dumbfounded.

"Yes, for God's sake, your cup." Levi was basically yelling now, "It's sitting on the bedside table and it's probably going to leave a stain because your too much of an idiot to put down a fucking coaster." Levi knew it was ridiculous, but he enjoyed seeing the anger flash in Eren's eyes, he'd known that Eren would fight him back.

"You're yelling at me because of my cup?" Eren was yelling too now and he's thrown himself off of Levi's bed. "Because I forgot to put a fucking coaster down?"

"Yes, I just said that obviously."

"You're kidding me right now, why the fuck? I don't understand? You're laying into me right now because of my cup?"

"God, how long does it take for you to get it?" Levi drawled in that voice he knew Eren hated.

"Oh no, I get it. I get that you're being the biggest fuckwit in the world right now."

"In the world? Like out of seven billion people I'm the biggest fuckwit? Well at least I'm good at what I do."

"Stop that! You know what I meant!"

"Did I?"

"I can't deal with whatever shit it is that your throwing at me Levi, I'm leaving. I'm not going to stand here while you yell at me because, because of a fucking cup."

"So maybe it isn't about the cup." Levi shrugged. He probably shouldn't have said that. But there was no turning back now.

"Then what is this about the Levi?" Eren asked exasperated.

"Whatever you're hiding from me." Levi stated simply. Eren's eyes widened slightly.

"I'm not hiding anything." He denied.

"Can you fucking stop that?" Levi basically growled.

"Stop what?"

"Lying to me for god's sake. I'm not an idiot I know when someone's not telling the truth."

"Fine maybe I'm not telling you something, but it's not something you'd want to hear anyway." Eren told him. Levi almost said ah ha but that would be childish, not that this whole ordeal hadn't been childish to begin with. What did Eren mean he wouldn't want to know?
