In Another Life- Ereri

Chapter Fifteen.

Now I know I heard what Levi had said yesterday about the whole 'no affection at school thing', but I was hoping, almost praying that maybe, just maybe things would change when the next day rolled around. Sadly, that wasn't at all the case. Sure, he spoke with me a bit and stuff like that, but he was acting as if I was hardly there for the most part. Could it killed the guy to give me some attention at least? I couldn't exactly complain though. I was dating the guy and I respected that he didn't want to be out yet. I didn't blame him. I, myself wasn't entirely out. Yeah, most people knew because of the whole Jean incident, but not everyone and I'd honestly like to keep it that way.

Currently my friends and I stood outside, just enjoying the small bit of warm weather we were receiving during lunch. It was late fall so we knew that this type of weather wouldn't last very long. It wasn't exactly warm, but the sun was shining, birds were singing, and flowers were in bloom ((On days like these, kids like you should be burning in hell - hahaha, I had to. bye)) I liked the weather. I wished it could stay like this for a good portion, but the weather wasn't the thing that was on my mind. What was on my mind would probably piss off just about anyone. Luckily, I had self-control and trust. Petra and her smug little smile currently clung to Levi. At first I wasn't too bothered by it, but when he placed his arm around her, that's when things started to get under my skin. A few of my friends must have realized something was up.

"Aye, man, you all right?" Connie asked, my attention slowly shifting to the other. I rubbed the back of my head and gave an awkward smile.

"Uh, yeah. I just sort of spaced out."

"Ironic that you spaced out on Levi, isn't?" Sasha teased, causing my face to heat up a bit.

"Yeah, ironic.." By now everyone in my small group of friends caught onto my little crush from yesterdays little display. I didn't mind, truly. None of them would ever judge me, but that still didn't stop it from being embarrassing.

"Eren, don't even bother with it, okay?" A soft voice said, causing my eyes to shift down towards a very petite, pretty blonde girl. If I was straight and she was straight, I'd definitely go for Christa, but hey, we were both gay as fuck. "He'll realize soon that choosing her won't be as fun as he thought. I know Petra, she seems sweet, but she'll stab you in the back the moment she gets the chance. I've known her for a very long time, and once she had the idea that I was out for one of her old boyfriends and decided to spread the rumor that I was a lesbian," She giggled a little, clearly amused for obvious reasons, "She plays dirty and from what Armin said about Levi wanting to apologize to you and such, I don't think it'll be long until she drops Levi." She said, trying to be reassuring, but Ymir just had to butt in and make my mind freak.

"Unless she goes after Eren instead?" She smirked some, her arm wrapping around Christa's petite figured.

"Ymir! He's already upset enough!" She slapped her arm away, causing the freckled lesbian to laugh. Christa turned her attention back to Eren and smiled. "Don't worry too much, okay? Things will turn out fine in the long run, I promise." The thing was, if Levi kept up with dating him, he had already won against Petra, but he got to thinking, what if Ymir was right and Petra did go after him? Things could turn out badly and Levi could break up with him. He didn't want that. At all.

After the little outside incident, the bell rang and I started walking inside, but while doing so, I noticed Levi staring at me. At first, I didn't really think much of it until he hung back and nodded towards the back of the school. I glanced around a bit confused, then realized what he wanted me to go over there with him. I held back a smile and bent down, pretending to tie my shoes so things didn't look obvious. When everyone had gone in, I stood up and walked over to Levi, who led me towards the back. Before I even got a word out, I was pinned against the wall, his body pressed against mine. In an instant, we were kissing and trust me, it was a lot more heated than I expected. He pulled back after a second and smirked up at me.

"Don't look so pitiful, okay? I'm into you, not her." He murmured, his hands finding their way to my waist. I stared at him for a moment before placing my arms around his neck, a slight frown on my face.

"Would you like it if my hands were around some girl?"

"Well no, but everyone knows you're gay..." He trailed off, then shook his head. "That doesn't matter. I'll talk to her about it later. How about you and I skip for the rest of the day? I want to take you somewhere." He murmured, leaning up and pressing another kiss to my lips. How could I say no?

I hope you guys enjoyed~ Oh, I'm going to be changing the names of the chapters to actual names. Maybe. It depends. If I don't, eh. If I do, eh. xD
