The PBC

Chapter 13

Levi was already sitting in Hanji's living room on the couch when she came home with Eren.

"Thanks for offering to help me with my bio, Hanji." Levi smirked lightly at the sound of Eren's voice.

"Salut gosse." He heard Eren inhale quickly.

"Levi's here?" There was a bit of unintelligible whispering before he heard Eren speak again. "Okay." Eren entered the living room and sat next to Levi.

"You're helping him with homework?" Levi asked. Hanji nodded a bit.

"Yeah! Well... kind of." Hanji said. "Eren only has book work to do and is only really stuck on cell division." Eren nodded.

"Yeah. I feel kind of stupid, but I get the phases mixed up and can't remember the acronym my biology teacher taught us. It's like... AMPT or something." Hanji giggled as Eren began to pull out his biology book.

"No Eren, it's PMAT. Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase." Eren nodded.

"Right." Eren pulled out his glasses and put them on. Levi just stared at him, watching the sophomore work for at least fifteen minutes before the green eyed boy looked over to him. "What are you here for Levi?" He asked while taking off his glasses.

"Well, shit specs asked me to come over." Eren nodded slowly as Hanji stood up.

"Well, I'm going to go get us some snacks. Remember Levi, hands off." The black haired teen rolled his eyes as she left for the kitchen. Eren sat quietly with Levi.

"So... you got in enough trouble to need escorts huh?" Levi asked, trying to make conversation that could lead to something he hoped would be interesting. Eren sighed as he scratched the back of his neck.

"Yeah, for two weeks." Levi hummed.

"So I guess that means we have to put off our French tutoring lessons for a bit." Eren's head snapped towards him.

"What? N-No. I-I just need to find someone who can bring me to and from your hou-" Levi shook his head.

"I don't want any of your friends knowing where I live." Eren frowned a little. "Why don't I escort you?" Levi slipped in. Eren sighed.

"Mom says only friends can escort me." Levi clicked his tongue.

"I get the brat. That's exactly my fucking point." Eren's eyes widened slightly.

"What? You mean... you wanna be friends?" Levi rolled his eyes this time and sighed exasperatedly.

"Wasn't the whole point of shit specs toy bringing you here a few weeks ago meant for that exact fucking purpose?" Eren smiled a bit.

"True, but I didn't think you liked me. I thought you only decided to teach me French to make me shut up." Eren knew better than that, of course, but he knew a lot of people who would give him his way to make him shut up.

"Listen brat, if I don't like someone, I don't want anything to do with them, and I avoid them. Am I avoiding you?" Eren's smile grew.

"So do you like me!"

"He sure as hell loves ogling your ass." Hanji said as she walked in with a bowl of fruit and a few juice boxes. Levi glared at her, and his eyes zeroed in on the boxes.

"You have got to be fucking kidding me? What are we, thre-"

"Juice boxes? Fuck yes!" Eren happily took one and poked the straw to, a wide smile on his face as Hanji giggled and sat down, sending Levi a look. Levi just watched Eren for a few seconds before sighing and rubbing the bridge of his nose.
