In Another Life- Ereri

Chapter Ten.

Honestly, I'm pretty proud of how far this story has gotten- it's one of my favorites, tbh. I would like to thank you all for reading it. Without you, I wouldn't exactly have over 1k reads. And yeah, compared to my other stories, that's not a lot, but I didn't really expect much from this story. Besides,  the reads are slowly going up, so that's all that matters.

Oh, do you like my new cover? It took me way too long to make that, jfc. All I know is that I'm proud of this one, and my other cover for my other Ereri story. Which, by the way, you should check out. xD

Levi's P.O.V.

Honestly, I didn't know what to think at this point. What did the kid expect? That because of some dumbass dream, we were just going to get together? No fucking way- that shit was in the past, and I barely knew this Eren. He seemed nice and all, but I didn't even think I was into men. I mean, I could consider it, but I would go after Erwin before I went after Eren. That guy just wasn't at all his type, and clearly, he was sensitive as shit, and I didn't want to deal with that- having to worry if he hurt his feelings or whatever. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't try to hurt him, but I say some mean stuff without realizing I said it. I just spoke before I thought, and it got me into trouble at times. But anyways, that wasn't the point here- the point was that now he had to deal with Petra and Eren now. Petra, according to like, half of my friends, thinks I'm asking her to homecoming. Why she thinks that, I don't know, and honestly, I'll feel like a dick if I don't. But then again, I really don't want to go to a dance. I mean, I'd go if I was going with someone I actually liked, but there was literally no one I actually liked at that school.

After I drowned myself in thoughts, I went back home, and did the exact same things for hours, then ended up falling asleep on the couch. For once, I actually managed to get some damn sleep. Insomnia was a real bitch... When morning finally came around, I sluggishly got ready for school- meaning, I showered, changed into a pair of skinny jeans and a T-shirt, then left. I never really ate breakfast; it always hurt my stomach, and since all the past health issues, I didn't want to deal with any of that. Once I got to school, I parked my car, and joined my group of friends by the entrance of the school, only for a gorgeous shade of green to catch my eyes. Damn, I'll admit, that dudes eyes were pretty. Eren, who stood with his group of friends, looked over at me, met my gaze, then looked away. I could tell he was hurt still by yesterday, but there wasn't anything I could do about it. So, I turned my attention to my friends, who for some reason, were staring at me expectantly. I made a face, then sighed when Erwin glanced at Petra. Now I literally had no choice. I, now being basically pressured into this, grabbed Petra by the hand, and led her away from the group. First of all, let me tell you I should have looked to where I had taken her, and second, I hated fucking everyone for having to do this. "Hey, Petra?" I said awkwardly. She smiled, tilting her chin up slightly.

"Yes, Levi?" She asked, her voice coming in elegance. Man, she did know how to show off every perfect detail about herself.

"So, did you uh, want to go to homecoming with me?"

"Yes!" She grinned, throwing herself at me, and hugging me tight. I hugged her back, only to see someone quickly walking into the school. Eren. Fuck.

Eren's P.O.V.

He fucking moved over here on purpose. He made sure that I saw and heard all of that. Honestly, it hurt to know that he was doing this, just to make it a point he didn't like me. I got it with everything he said yesterday, I didn't need to hear him ask Petra fucking Ral to homecoming. I don't even know why I got so upset, but I did. Sure, I only just met the guy, but I was definitely crushing on him at this point, especially after learning about the dreams- which, by the way, made me realize how gay I actually was, but anyways... I just sort of, ran passed him, ignoring Mikasa and Armin, who hollered at me. They didn't know, and they wouldn't understand even if they did. Both of them didn't understand what it was like to be rejected and then basically watch the guy ask out another right in front of you. I was just... done...

I know it's not that long, or that eventful, but I had finals today. I knew I had to get another chapter out though, so here. Enjoy.
