Mistaken Message (Levi x Eren)-

Fuck the Law

Three days. It's been three days in this hell hole. Hell hole that Levi would be stuck in until his court trial. He had been appointed a lawyer, but clearly a shitty one since he kept insisting that there was too much evidence and that Levi should just plead guilty. A cowards way out. A way that would end Levi between 3-7 years in jail. 3-7 years without Eren. He couldn't do that. He couldn't go that long without his green eyed beauty. But as far as everyone else was concerned he had to. It was the law. Fuck the law.

Mikasa POV

He barely talks anymore. Eren used to be so full of life, never shutting up and that was one of Mikasa's favourite things about him. But not now. Not since he had been saved three days ago. He just sat there, as if unaware of his surroundings. She sighed, picking up a plate with eggs and toast on it. Scrambled, how he liked it.

"Eat Eren." She said as she set down the plate, making Eren jump slightly. He had been too lost in thought overnight to realize it was already morning. A third day with no Levi. He glanced at the plate, almost contemplating eating it. But he couldn't. It reminded him of his first morning with Levi, the man making him scrambled eggs and how often the man made eggs like that afterwards. Eren shook his head before he pushed it away, like he did to most of his meals. He didn't want to eat right now. He didn't want to be here.

"Eren you can't keep skipping meals." Mikasa protested, pushing the plate back towards him.

"Why not?"

"You need to be healthy."

"Why?"

"Because people care about you Eren."

"Levi cared about me."

Mikasa stood quickly, glaring at her brother. Every single time. Every single time she had tried to talk to him about anything it always came back to Levi. Nothing annoyed her more.

"Levi's a criminal! He doesn't love you! You don't love him!" She couldn't help but snap. Day after day after day Eren was the same and he refused to admit the fact that Levi wasn't coming back into his life anytime soon. Anytime at all if it were up to Mikasa.

"Shut up! Shut up Mikasa! You keep saying that but you don't know him! You just assumed and ruined his life! Our life! Don't fucking say that he doesn't love me. Don't fucking say that I don't love him!" Eren slammed both his hands on the table as he stood, glaring at Mikasa.

"Eren you're being an idiot! He kidnapped you! Held you against your will! Now sit back down and eat for once!"

"Fuck you Mikasa. You're not my saviour. You ruined my life and you ruined his." He knew he was being irrational. He knew he was being illogical but Eren didn't care. Not one bit. All he cared about was the fact that no one seemed to ever believe him. He did love Levi. He knew he loved Levi. Levi loved him too. He knew that. Nothing would change that. So he repeated it over and over in his head as he sat down, grabbing a fork and eating. He would need Mikasa to trust him even a little if he wanted to find a way to see Levi again.

Hanji POV

It had taken a bit to convince the police to let them see Levi but they had managed it. Being a neurologist with a minor in psychology comes in handy when you want to analyze someone to plead for insanity. Which is the lie they told the police. That Levi would plead for insanity.

"If it isn't my little ball of gloom!" They announced as they stepped into the meeting room. Levi was seated in a chair on one side of the table, Hanji was almost struck by déjà vu when they saw him. The greasy hair, sunken face, dark circles under his eyes, Levi looked like a mirror image of what he did all those years ago in high school. The way he looked before he had kidnapped Principal Church.
