Things Can Change (Ereri// Short Story) ✔️

Chapter 5

Erens POV

Staring up at him, the eyes of a devil looking down on his victims. Having blood covered all over his face and hair, like the scene from Carrie.

Why was he doing this, why...

It's the only question I want to ask right now, but seeing him like this is terrifying, and I don't want to make him madder than he already is.

He pulled my hair to the side showing off my neck, I gasped in pain closing my eyes from the world.

Just... thinking

Why is he doing this? I want to see my moms beautiful face and her smile, she always new how to make me smile. Always would sing to me when there was a storm, or when I was bullied or beaten up. I loved how she would care for anything and anyone.

I really want to see Mikasa and Armin my closes friends since I was young, Mikasa caring way to hard for me even when I say to stop. Though she moved to a different city we still are very close. How Armin is nerdy but always there for me when I feel down, and how he can make anyone smile or get you out of the stupid shit you do.

Most of all I miss Levi, my best friend who has stuck around me since I was in middle school, he always had my back and I would appreciate him for being kind, even though he is stern and deadly. But he still cares for all his friends. How his black hair moves in the wind, or how his eyes can be so scary but they still seem to sparkle in the moonlight, or in the winter. When he smiles, even though he rarely smiles it's a symphony that plays on forever, when a baby smiles for the first time...

I miss him the most...

{Flash Back}

Its the first day of middle school and I only know Mikasa and Armin, it's a pretty big school. A new place to make new friends and enemy's, yay...

It was a very nice day with fall coming in making it a little colder but still hot. The bees were doing there thing and the birds were singing a nice song outside.

Armin and Mikasa were already in the cafeteria for lunch because I had locker problems. As I walked to the cafeteria a light brown haired boy with a long face bumped into me.

"Watch out" he said

But me being a smart ass I responded with "technically you bumped into me, but sure, whatever" as I was walking to the cafeteria.

"What did you say to me" He asked sternly

"You heard me" I waved him off and continued to walk forward, ignoring him in the process.
He grabbed my shoulder pushing me into the locker. Looking me dead in the eye.

"Don't ever say shit like that to me," His grip on my shoulder growing tighter. Raising his fist up , ready to hit me in my face.

"Says who" A nice ringing voice said behind him, "Jean shut up and go away" so that's his name.

I looked behind Jean to see a short raven- haired boy standing with his arms crossed. He had grey eyes with light blue in them like the the midnight sky.

"Says me" Jean said still staring into my eyes.

Jean let me go and turned towards the new kid. Putting up his fist he swung but the Raven grabbed his arm and kneeled him in his elbow causing it to snap in half.

Jean let out a scream in pain and clutched his arm that was now broken. I look at Jean struggling then at the Raven who was smirking at what he had done. Scary.

"T-thanks," I said still looking at the Raven. He turned his head from Jean over to me.

He 'tsked' turning on his heal and walked away into the corridor. I followed after him, walking next to him for a couple of seconds.

"What brat" He asked still looking forward.

"I'm not a brat, my name's Eren and thanks for doing that" I responded looking at him.

He looked up at me for a second then back at the ground.

"No problem, you're not the first person to get your ass beat up by Jean, my name's Levi"

Levi, huh I like that name. He seemed nice for doing that so I'll stick by him for a little longer.

{End of flashback}

After that day I stayed near him, I never left his side. He was my only friend I truly trusted besides Armin and Mikasa. Where is he now, is he looking for me? Is that why Jean is going all crazy? Because of that one day were Levi broke his arm?

He bashed my head with the crow bar hard enough to knock me out. As I passed out I saw a figure, it looked like Levi with a bat, he was covered in blood and was pissed

"Levi..." and with that I passed out
