The Great Divide (Levi Ackerman X Fem!Reader) ON HIATUS!

Chapter 10

I smirked while Hange was yelling about Eren's regenerative abilities as we were riding on our horses to the new-ish HQ. Levi apparently saw this and spoke to me, "With you being a psycho and all, I'm guessing you already knew about that?" Everyone looked at me. "Yeah... I just didn't want to spoil the surprise." Petra then decided to lecture Levi on how I was a 'psychic', not a psycho. Levi then informed her that he knew. Petra seemed shocked that Levi had been acting really relaxed and more laid back lately, especially around me, and also that he used the word 'fun' (when describing why he called me a psycho). She then shook it off, proceeding to lecture me on not telling her about Eren's different abilities. I just shrugged it off and then she moved her horse so that she was beside me and so that Levi was moved to a different spot. I probably gossiped with Petra about my psychic-ness and also if Levi and I were a 'thing' yet (which we weren't) for a good ten, maybe twenty minutes until finally Levi got annoyed enough to move his horse beside Petra and flick her in the temple. She yelled about it hurting to which Levi told her to suck it up and to literally get back in her place. The rest of the ride was somewhat silent between Levi and me except for the occasional moments where I would poke him and he'd tell me to stop it and vice versa. 'Twas a very interesting ride, if I do say so myself. 

What I found funny though is the fact that since Levi and I were yelling and poking each other, we got confused looks from Erwin and Eren, shocked looks from the Squad, and a cheesy smile from Hange. I didn't care what they thought though, I was having fun, AND I got to show some of the scouts that Levi wasn't always the strong silent type.

When we got to the really old base (which I guess I could call 'new' now?), Levi instantly got to work and he made me clean with him. It was funny because he was so serious about it. Personally, I think that he got mad at me a few times for not cleaning something until it sparkled like it was brand spanking new, but hey, I can't clean without my music and I couldn't exactly play music. One of the other Scouts had brought my old cloak to the new HQ and my phone was in that, but I didn't care at that moment. I was focused on being lectured by Levi on how to clean things.

Ok, no, I'm not gonna lie, I didn't pay much attention to his lecture.

I was out of sorts at the moment. I kept thinking about the expedition where the scouts almost caught the female Titan. I didn't want Levi's squad to die, not to mention all the other scouts, they were all such good people. I'd gotten pretty attached to them over the course of the past few days. I wanted to warn them, but who'd believe me? I mean I'd been right so far, so maybe someone would believe me. I just didn't know though.

I started to feel lightheaded while thinking about the situation. "(Y/n)? Did you hear what I told you about dusting?" I put my hand on my head because as soon as I snapped back to reality, I got really dizzy. "Uh... Yeah, I did." Levi then rolled his eyes, "Call me crazy, but I have a feeling that you didn't." Everything then started getting a bit blurry and I groaned. "I'm sorry Levi, I didn't. I'm a little distracted and I feel sick. I'm sorry." Levi shook his head, rolled his eyes, and picked me up bridal style. "W-what are you doing?! Levi!? I-I'm fine!" Levi looked me dead in the eyes, smirked, and chuckled. "No. You're not fine. You're feeling sick and I'm not going to let you vomit all over somewhere I just cleaned." I protested a bit more, but it was useless. I sighed as I just relaxed, seeing that there was no way out, and fell asleep in his arms despite the time of day being probably sometime in the afternoon.

Levi's P.O.V.:

While I was talking to (Y/n) she seemed to get paler and paler. Her breathing had quickened too. She looked dazed and out of it. She looked sickly and yet still so beautiful. She kept trying to tell me that she was okay after I asked if she heard all that I said. She apologized three times. The third apology she had said as she fell asleep as I carried her to her room. That apology caused me to stop right in my tracks. "I'm sorry that I'm such a bother Captain..." (Y/n) wasn't a bother... The squad loved her, well, maybe not Oluo, but she seemed to be able to handle that idiot. I shook it off and went back to the room that (Y/n) was helping me clean. After a while, that Jaeger brat came in and said that he was done with the upstairs. "Uh, if I may ask Captain, where will I be expected to sleep?" I turned to look at him and I gave him my answer. "Your sleeping quarters are in the cellar," the brat then complained about the cellar and I gave him a stern look. "It's our safest option. Your abilities are far from being under control. You might go titan in your sleep. One of the conditions of my having you in custody at all is that I keep you under strict security morning, noon, and night. While we're in dreamland, you're in restraints. That's the rule." Jaeger just looked at me in disbelief. I waited for him to say something, but I got tired of waiting so I told him I'd check his work and that he was to clean that room until it was spotless.
