Eren's POV:

It took me a few hours to finally stop sobbing. But everything that had happened in the past three or four years had finally come back to me in just a couple of minutes. Everything moved in slow motion as I had recalled the deaths of all my loved ones, and how my life had been turned upside down.

However, the thing that shocked me the most was that the Corporal was here comforting me. Yes, we had both lost people who we were close to, but I had never really seen past his cold exterior. He was one of the only people I had left, and yet I had never had a day where he didn't snap at me or treat my poorly. I almost wondered how that could be possible.

So imagine my surprise when the cold, heartless Captain Levi was sitting here hugging me, and trying to comfort me. I could hear him whispering soothing words in my ear, and stroking my hair.

It had been so long since anyway had done this for me. I had never broken down in front of others before. I would hold everything in, and usually break down when I was alone. Frankly, it as embarrassing for someone to see me like this; especially Levi.

When I had finished my break down, I turned my head up to look at Levi. His steel gray eyes automatically pierced into mine, and I felt myself freeze. I couldn't seem to move in this moment, and found it strange that I suddenly felt myself drawn to him. I had never felt something like this before. The intensity was rocking me to the core, and I was suddenly fearful.

But I was suddenly shaken back to reality, and I quickly turned my head away. Somehow I felt ashamed of how I had shown Levi my weak side. I didn't want his pity, I just wanted him to pretend like nothing had happened.

Without another word I quickly jumped out of Levi's arms, and made a mad dash for the door. I could feel myself ache from every step I took, but I ignored it for the time being. The only thing on my mind in this moment was to get away from the Corporal as quick as I could.

Levi's POV:

I honestly don't know what happened. One minute I was peacefully looking into Eren's eyes, and the next he was jumping up and sprinting out the door. I was seriously confused.

Had I done something wrong? Did he want to be alone? Did he dislike being comforted?

Did he not like being around me?

The last question struck me pretty hard. You would think that after everything we had been through that he would at least somewhat enjoy my company. It kind of stung to know that one of the only people I had left didn't seem to like me.

But what I didn't get was why I cared so much. Normally I wouldn't care what others though about me. But somehow with Eren it was different. I wanted him to approve me, and I wanted his respect. Most of all though, I wanted him to enjoy being around me.

But why?

I had thought about this a countless number of times, but could never quite come to the conclusion.
