Why Do You Care (Eruri)

Ch. Four

Levi's pov
                    ~~previously~~
I must have fallen asleep cause the last think I remember seeing is a black, fancy car and Erwin putting me in.

                            ***
I woke up in meadow of yellow rod, my allergies did not agree to this. From across the field, I spied my mother, father and Uncle Kenny walking with a younger version of me. They were laughing and smiling with me. The good old days.

Behind me were Farlan and Isabel. They were laughing and joking around with each other. A teenage me followed from behind and rolled his eyes. They've been my best friends since age three. We've had ever class together up till our freshman year. In the summer of freshman year, the accident had happened. I never forgave myself.

Suddenly it went black. My arms were tied behind me. I couldn't open my eyes, it was dark. I only heard voices.

"How could you let this happen to us, Levi." My mother sounded sad, but I knew she was faking it.

"I'm very disappointed in you, son. You had such a good planned future ahead of you..." My father lied, he never cared.

"Levi-bro, where were you?? You could of saved us. I miss you, Levi-bro." Isabel's voice cracked. I started shaking and crying. I miss you Isabel...I'm so sorry.

"We miss you, Levi. But I'm so angry in you. Why didn't you save us?" Farlan's voice appeared disappointed in me. I miss you Farlan...I'm so sorry, I couldn't protect you.

"You worthless, piece of shit. When I find you, I will kill you Levi Ackerman. This is all your fault." My uncle Kenny wasn't a good man, he was a piece of shit.

I woke up, screaming. Sweat rolled down from my forehead. It was a dream, just a dream Levi. Instead of calming down, I had started crying.

Erwin's Pov
~a few moments earlier~
I softly closed the door to my bedroom, where Levi looked so cute asleep.

I met Hanji, Mike and Nanaba in the entertainment room. "Alright, what are your concerns about Levi?"

"Erwin! You cancelled all you meeting because of boy! Do you have any idea how much trouble both you and I could get into?!" Mike spoke first.

"I have to agree with Mike on this one, Mr. Smith. That is very irresponsible." Nanaba crossed her arms. Of course she would agree with her husband.

"Okay but let's push all that aside for just one moment." Hanji smirked. "I wanna know about this Levi guy. We all know Erwin isn't straight...so do you like him?? Is he cute? What's he like?"

"Hanji!!" We all scowled at their questions.

"I guess, Hanji does have a point." Nanaba smiled, mike agreeing for once. "He looked super small when you brought him in."

"Levi is a small guy. He's about 5 foot 3. With the most beautiful grey eyes you could ever imagine. He's super grumpy and doesn't seem to show much emotion. And he said he just moved to Berlin for a fresh start." I must of been rambling because Mike snapped his fingers to get my attention.

"AAWWW! OUR LITTLE, NOT SO LITTLE, ERWIN HAS A CRUSH." Hanji shrieking, causing all of us to jump. Nanaba clapped happily.

Our conversation was interrupted by a high pitched scream, that came from upstairs. "Levi!" I ran out of that room as fast as I could. "I'm coming Levi, hold on." Let's just say, I tripped twice on my way up the staircase.

I pushed the bedroom door open and found Levi with his knees curled to his chest. I rushed over to him, pulling Levi into my arms. "I got you, Levi. I got you. I'm here." He continued to cry, tears soaked through my shirt.

Levi had wrapped his arms around my neck and sat on my lap. Mike, Nanaba and Hanji poked their heads inside the door way. I silenced them, while continuing to hold Levi.

His breathing returned to normal and the tears had stopped falling. Levi must of opened his eyes, cause he pushed me away. He tumbled on to my bedroom floor. "Levi! Are you alright?!"

"What the hell!? Why the fuck am I here!? Who the fuck are those people at the door?! Where am I?!" He yelled angrily.

"Levi, let's calm down. Let me help you up." I offered him a hand but he swatted it away.

"Don't fucking touch me, asshole!"

"That's a charming man, you got there Erwin. I except a little more to be honest." Mike crosses his arms.

"AAWWW! ERWIN WAS RIGHT! HE IS CUTE!" Hanji shrieked again.

Levi's pov
"I'm what?!" I glared over at Erwin on the bed. I can't believe this was happening.

Erwin ignored me and looked over, at who I presumed, were his friends. "Nanaba, I need a black tea with no sugar, creme, or milk. Mike, I need the keys to the library. And Hanji, I need you get the hell out. Also, tell my father I will be attending that dinner and bringing someone with."

"What the hell, Erwin?! What's going on?! Why am I here?!" I got up and yelled him. I was most confused on why Erwin was bossing his friends around.

"I'm truly sorry, Levi. Of course you must be so confused. Here, sit down." He patted the bed next to him.

The girl with really short blonde hair walked back in with that cup of tea. I thought Erwin didn't like tea. She handed it to me. "Welcome to the Smith estate, Levi. My name Nanaba, I'm Erwin's cook. Its a pleasure to meet you."

"Oh....um... Thanks Nanaba...." I cracked a small smile. She was actually quite nice...

"Thank you Nanaba. I need you and Hanji to go out shopping for Levi. He's a...what size are you?"

"A small, Erwin. Why? Don't buy me clothes, asshole."

"A small in blue and black, with glasses. You wear glasses right Lee?"

"Erwin...what the fuck. Yes I wear glasses, I have my own, for one. And for two, Lee?? What is that?!"

"Its a nickname, Levi. Lee is short for Levi. Duh."

I just stare at him...I've never had a proper nickname before. I was always called clean freak or something. "Oh...that's new..."

"Levi, can you tell us where you left your car? For your glasses of course." Nanaba had asked.

"Its by Viktoria Park. On the side of the road." I answered before Erwin. I handed her the keys. "Please, don't go through anything. Just please bring it back here."

"Of course, Levi. Anything for Erwin's lover." And with that, she had left before I could say anything.

"L-lover? What the fuck? Erwin?! What does she mean by lover? Why did you send them shopping? What's going on."

"Levi, Lee, will you please accompany me to a dinner with executive directors and my father??" He asked so politely and formally...it was weird...but cute...wait what?!

"Oh...um...I guess I could....I don't think you gave me much of a choice... So yes, I will accompany you Erwin."

Only a small part of me was panicking with Nanaba and Hanji in the stolen car.
