Finally, the time to enjoy our day after school at Reiner. When Levi and I left the field earlier, the boys started to freak out that they had to time out the game to search for us. Woah, I didn't know that Levi and I were very important in the group.
The class ended shortly after Levi and I drank our smoothies. Honestly, the strawberry smoothie is one of my favorite drink in the cafeteria. Nothing else than strawberry smoothie could lighten up my heart. Maybe Levi stupid crack jokes, but his jokes were scary. How can you joke about murdering people? That's Levi Ackerman to you.
On that day, I walked to where I parked my dad's motorcycle. He didn't used it today though, and he was at home sleeping so I took the advantage of it to borrow his motorcycle. I felt Reiner tapped my shoulder and wrapped his shoulder around mine while telling his jokes and I laughed. But I could feel Levi glaring at me in the back of my head, I took a deep breath before turning around and saw him looking extremely scary. Not again.
"what now, Levi?" I asked him helpessly.
"we're going to Reiner's, right?" he asked as I stopped my track which made Reiner stopped too since he had his arm wrapped around my shoulder.
"yeah," I nodded. "what about it?"
He shrugged before grabbing my collar shirt and pulling me to his side, ripping Reiner's arm from my shoulder. "I'd like to have a minute with Jaeger,"
I gulped before looking at Levi. What is it this time? Did I do something? I can't think of anything except that time he told me he had three ex-girlfriends, so does that count as a problem? I asked him very politely though. I did asked him politely, did I? Shit!
Reiner chuckled before shrugging his shoulders. "he's all yours, Levi. just meet up with the others at my house, alright? if you're going somewhere, make sure to buy us some soft drinks, will ya?"
"sure," he said.
Reiner waved at us and turned around to follow Bertolt. We watched as the others walked out from the gate until Levi grabbed my short sleeve uniform to where I parked the motorcycle.
"Le-Levi! what's wrong?" I asked but he didn't answer. I'm getting really frustrated with his attitude so I slip my sleeve away from Levi's grip made him turn around with a glare. "what the hell, Levi! what's wrong with you!"
"mind your manners, Jaeger," he said with a glared.
"oh shut the fuck up with that manners fucked up of yours!" I yelled I gritted my teeth. "what's wrong with you, huh? did you woke up from the wrong side of your bed? if you're going to be this bitchy and moody little a-hole, I prefer you shouldn't- no, we shouldn't come to Reiner's house today and miss the opportunity of having a little fun,"
He fully turned at me with a glare but I was too frustrated with this guy to even be scared of him. "watch your language, Jaeger,"
"what the hell, Levi!" I yelled. "what's wrong with you!"
"stop fucking yelling!" he shouted at me made me jumped a little and my expression fell after he did that.
His voice were cracking and I think I did push his buttons, I didn't meant to- I never meant to. Did something broke him? He looks really different and... his showing pretty much expression today. I must say this is a rare thing I've seen from Levi. But back at him, he looked kinda upset but I can't pretty much read other emotions other than that. I felt horrible.
"I...," I said while scratching the back of my neck. "I'm sorry, Levi. I-,"
"it's okay," he said. "come on, Eren. let's buy some soft drinks in a small market before going to Reiner,"
I turned to him with a sad expression. "a-are you sure?"
"yeah," he turned to me. "special guest always comes late, right? let's go buy the drinks,"
I nodded before approaching him but my eyes started to tear up as I sprinted to him with open arms made him a bit scared. Before he even get the chance to take a step back, my arms wrapped around him and I hid my face in his hair despite being the taller one but I don't mind- his hair smells like mint.
We stayed like that for a minute or two until I felt Levi slowly holding my waist then wrapping his arms around my waist. I felt him moving against my shoulders. I furrowed my eyebrows until I closed my eyes to feel his heart beat from my chest. I wanted to stay like that forever, I really do. I should have known that would be the last time I'd hugged him like that, but I took him for granted. I regretted it all. I should have stayed in my line. I should have stayed, shouldn't I?
"come on," I whispered. "let's get going,"
He didn't moved but he released his arms as I released mine. I frowned at his expression which I couldn't read much about it but then I smiled at him and give him a fist bump to his chest made him surprised a little.
"what's... this for?" he asked.
"a cheer up fist bump," I said with a wide smile. "whatever happens in your life right now, don't you worry about it. there's always a way, Levi,"
He turned to me but I just send him a wide smile.
"beside, you'll always have me, Levi,"

"yo, assholes!" we barge in to Reiner's house with hands wrapped around our shoulders with couple of soft drinks on our hands. Everyone in the house looked at us before smiling and laughing at our sights. "the bitches have arrived!"
Levi and I laughed at each other before giving everyone a can of soft drink since we are still underage for an alcohol, but that didn't stop us to taste it. But, as for today, we'd like to have a legal party which only filled with soft drinks.
The girls were having a huge selfie together then Jean I looked at each other before ruining the selfie as we jumped to the group with a laugh. I high-five Jean as I laugh at the girls getting mad of us ruining all the moment. I mean, that's the party for, right? Ruining every moment.
Soon, the other boys joined the laughter. I turned to Levi who seems to have fun since he is smiling and laughing with the other boys. Sure, people would look at us like we're the inseparable best friends, but we can be separated for only couple of times. So, don't underestimate our friendship!
"oi!" Sasha screamed made the laughter died. I turned to her before I could even approach Levi who's busy eating the nachos.
"Sa-Sasha!" Petra blushed.
Sasha giggled before looking at the crowd. "Petra would like to tell you something!"
"ooooooooo," the boys ooed, even I joined the crowds but I was standing in front of Levi while looking at Petra and Sasha.
"give me the nachos," I whispered to Levi.
"no," he shook his head then we had this glare competition again.
"sure, she does," Annie said with a smirk.
"especially Levi-kun, right Petra? or did I hear it wrong?" Sasha smirked.
Levi and I turned to where Petra is standing and her face were red when she saw Levi look at her. Jeez, our glaring competition 2k17 were just about to start and this total bitch clearly kills it. But Petra is a sweet girl, I shouldn't have called her that. I'm so mean.
"n-no! I had nothing to say t-to Levi-ku- kun," she said while shaking.
I leaned to Levi's ear. "did she just called you 'kun'?"
He shrugged.
The feelings came back once again. Shit, I had no self-control with my emotions. I wanna scream that Levi was mine before she even exist. But, girls come first, don't they? And what did Levi sees in me anyway. I'm so pathetic.
