Getting to Know You

Erens POV

I had just gotten out of the shower, and music was booming through my three bluetooth speakers, all positioned strategically around my flat. Levi just texted me saying that he and Hanji were on their way back from the auditions.

I wrapped a towel around my waist and a towel around my head and started brushing my teeth.

I had just eaten so I should be fine for my little 'getting to know you' session with Levi. My phone buzzed on the counter, I reached with the hand that wasn't brushing my teeth and checked what it said.

Captain: Hanji's coming too, sorry

JaegerBombtastic: No problem, see you then :)

Why do I keep sending fucking smiley faces?! I finished brushing my teeth, so I rubbed the towel on my head to get it to dry a bit, all I succeeded in was making it stick up on all angles. I had to go to the bathroom beside the kitchen to get my hairbrush. One of my favourite songs came on.

Hey girl, open your walls play with your dolls, we'll be a perfect family...

I sang loudly throughout the whole thing. I seemed to have gotten my hair flattened a bit on my head so I walked out in my towel to get clothes from my room, though I was intercepted by a certain someone.

"Eren!" Hanji yelled running over to give me a hug. It was really awkward, getting hugged while wearing nothing but a towel. I gently pushed Hanji away.

"Sorry, I didn't expect you to be here so soon..." I said, trailing off in embarrassment, Levi's eyes hadn't moved from me the whole time. I felt uncomfortable under his intense gaze. Luckily, Hanji was there.

"Levi, look away from him, can't you see the poor baby is uncomfortable" Hanji said placing a hand on my bare shoulder, which I shrugged off. Levi turned beet red at her statement and looked at his black on black converse as if they were his anchor to this world.

"I'm gonna go get dressed..." I said shuffling over to my room, though the whole way I could feel Levi's eyes on my back. Though to be fair, I did the same thing to him.

When I finished I lowered the volume of my music and met them in the living room.

"So I am going to ask Eren a question" Hanji said. I nodded, I assumed this was how it was going to go.

"Favourite colour?"

"Green" I said simply, that one was easy. I looked over to Levi, it was his turn to ask.

"What was your job before this?" My eyes widened, while his narrowed a bit in confusion of my obvious distress. Should I tell them the truth? Well, I would feel guilty forever if I lied. I looked down, ashamed.

"Promise not to hate me?" I said quietly.

"We would never hate you" Hanji said kindly. I took a deep breath.

"A prostitute" I felt a tear slip down my face at the painful memories that job gave me. It was horrible, but it provided money, which without, I could have died. I felt arms encircle me. I looked up. Hanji. For some reason I was disappointed, I wish Levi had hugged me instead.

"I'm sorry" Levi said quietly. I wiped the tears away from my cheeks.

"It's alright" I said with what I hoped to be a convincing smile. Hanji sat with me for the rest of the time, we were squished together on a single person chair, so it was far from comfortable.

"Eren, your turn" Hanji said happily. I turned to Hanji, who's face was literally right there.

"Did you go to University, College, or none of the above?" I asked, not really caring, but also not wanting to ask anything to personal. She grinned.

"I went to university for two years than dropped out when Erwin gave me a job here" She said while gesturing to the space around her. She than clapped her hands together.

"Since I have known Levi for a long time, I am going to ask you Eren, got any girlfriends?" She said wiggling her eyebrows and sitting back down on the couch that Levi was sitting on. I smirked and gave her an incredulous look. She didn't seem to catch it.

"No" I said folding my arms and leaning back. She laughed and leaned forward, raising one eyebrow.

"Eren, be honest, will you ever even look for a girlfriend" I felt my face grow a little warm, Levi readjusted his seating and glanced at me.

"Eren, you don't have to answer that if you don't want too" Levi said, still glancing at me from under his black hair. Pretending I didn't hear that I looked at Hanji with a cocky glint in my eyes.

"I dunno" I said with a smirk on my face. Hanji basically exploded.

"What do you mean you 'dunno'" Levi whirled on her.

"Shutup shitty four eyes, stop invading into peoples life" Hanji looked genuinely shocked at first than clapped.

"Levi has shown the first emotion since preschool!! Yay!" She said clapping. Damn did she have a lot of energy.

As the night proceeded, the game turned more into a joke. There was a question where I asked if they had eaten worms, both Levi and Hanji had, Hanji did it 'for science' while Levi did it because in middle school a girl in his class bet nobody would do it and he said it was 'brave and manly' I scoffed at that, trying to contain my laughter. Than Hanji dropped an unexpected bombshell.

"Have you ever killed something other than bugs?" She asked.

"I killed a mouse by accident in high school" I froze. I have killed a human, a real live person. I couldn't admit to that. I glanced over at Levi for the support he always seemed to give me, though he appeared to be in the same state as me, I can't imagine why though. Did he run over a squirrel with his car or something?

Though I managed to avoid answering the question, Levi didn't say another word until it was to say goodbye to me.
