(Levi is the same age as Eren in this story)

(Eren's POV)

Alright, first day of school! This should be fun, right? I've heard that a lot of teenagers would rather die than go to high school, but I think it'll be nice.

I jumped out of my bed and stretched and then walked over to Armin's bed to wake him up. After quite a lot of negotiating and bickering, my parents and Armin's grandfather finally allowed Mikasa, Armin, and I to get a teeny tiny apartment after middle school graduation. And yup, me and Armin share a room. Mikasa ended up getting her own room because 'she's the female and needs her space.'

I shook Armin and he groaned, "What do you want?"

"Armin, wake up. We have school" I said excitedly. He just groaned again and then turned to face the wall. I sighed as I remembered that Armin was definitely not a morning person. I frowned and shook him harder, "Come on dude we're gonna be late. Get the hell up!"

"Ugh, five more minutes?" He asked.

I ripped off his blanket and he immediately curled into a ball. "Nope" I answered and scooped him up bridal style, which was kind of a mistake since we were both in our boxers.

Anyways, he looked up at me tiredly and blushed, "W-what?"

"No. You need to get ready." I said as I brought him over to his closet and put him down there. "There, now get dressed! You have 10 minutes." I told him and walked over to my side of the room to grab my clothes and I made my way to the bathroom .

I quickly got dressed and brushed my teeth, and also trying to fix my morning hair. I rushed out of the bathroom and decided to made a quick breakfast for all of us. But when I walked into the kitchen, I saw Mikasa already making pancakes.

I ran over and sat down, ready to dig in. My favorite food is pancakes.

"Eren. Wait for Armin." She told me while placing another plate on the table. I sighed and waited for Armin to walk out of the bathroom.

After a few long minutes, he finally came walking into the kitchen, head down, arms drooping. Me and Mikasa could obviously see the sadness in his actions.

I stood from my chair, completely forgetting about my pancakes, "Hey, what's wrong? Are you okay?" I asked.

He just shrugged. Then about 5 seconds later he shook his head and leaped into my chest and burst into years. I gave Mikasa a confused look and she shrugged. I rubbed his back until he pulled away and sniffled, "I-I'm sorry guys. I d-didn't mean to do that. I'm just s-scared." he said sadly.

I frowned and put my hand on his shoulder, "Armin, you know you can talk to us. C'mon, tell me what happened." I told him.

"Y-yeah. I know. I'm sorry. I'm just w-worried *sniffle* that highschool won't be as exciting as we think. L-like, what if we get bullied and stuff? I've heard so much stuff about kids hurting themselves because of how awful it is. What if that's gonna be us?!?!" He finally spoke.

"We'll keep you safe, alright? Mikasa?" I told him and looked at Mikasa.

She nodded her head and walked over to us and rubbed Armin's back soothingly, "Yeah, I promise if anyone tries to lay a hand on either of you ill kill 'em. How does that sound?"

"Thanks *sniffle* guys. I don't know what I'd do without you." he gave a weak smile and hugged both of us. I knew he'd be okay now.

We all smiled as we backed away from each other and Mikasa was the first to speak "c'mon, we have 5 minutes to eat" and then we all sat down.

A few moments later, we got our stuff together and walked out of the apartment.

(Levi's POV)

I grabbed my stuff for school and placed it neatly in my bag and walked downstairs. I stopped when I walked into the kitchen, only to see the lovely couple, Hanji and Erwin, kissing.

"Ew, seriously guys? Can you do that when I'm not here?" I asked annoyed.

They broke apart and looked at me. Hanji laughed and Erwin just walked into the living room.

"Sorry Hun. Now go on and get to school. I know you don't like breakfast so I'm not gonna pressure you about it." Hanji says. She knows I don't eat food in the morning because I get sick. "Buuuuut...." She grabbed a waffle that was wrapped in a napkin, "Please just take this to go. You won't be able to eat until lunch."

I stared at her pleading eyes and gave up the effort of arguing, "Tch. Fine." I grabbed the waffle from her hand and took a bite.

She smiled and ruffled my thin hair, "That's my boy."

"I'm not even your real son." I told her with a confused look. After my parents died when i was little, my uncle Kenny took care of me up until last year when he disappeared. Hanji and Erwin decided to let me live with them for a while.

She giggled "I know. Now c'mon." she grabbed my car keys from the counter and dangled them in the air for me to take, "Go to school before you're late."

I nodded and took another bite which made her smile. I took my keys, bag, and phone and headed outside. I yelled 'Bye eyebrows!' before slamming the door behind me. That made me smirk. It's kinda hot out so I took my leather jacket off and let it rest on my arm. I walked to my car and started it, driving to school. I finished the waffle and threw the napkin out in a nearby trash can and walked through the doors of school.

Okay, let's see how my first day goes.

(Sorry about the short first chapter. The others will be much longer than this)
