Red Strings Of Fate.

Chapter 7

Eren slammed the alarm to stop its annoying beeping. He let out a huge sigh before standing up and walking to the bathroom. He flicked on the light and took a look at himself on the mirror. As highly expected, he didn't look too good. He looked like he hasn't slept for 10 years. He didn't manage to even get a wink of sleep last night. All that was on his mind was Levi, the dream, Levi, the date, the kiss, Levi, did he mention Levi?

He washed his face and splashed water on it a couple of times to wake him up. He also rubbed the sleep off his tired eyes. He looked in the mirror again. He looked slightly better than just now but still kinda like shit. He sighed again before totally giving up and went downstairs to have breakfast or rather to put something in his stomach so he wouldn't faint in school later.

He rummaged his fridge for some cereal and milk and poured it in a bowl. He sat down and began eating it. He really didn't want to go to school today or ever to be honest. But he already promised Armin to try his best to go to school everyday as Armin didn't want Eren to be a dropout. They both knew it wouldn't be good for Eren. Eren smiled a little. He was really grateful to have a friend like Armin.

But Armin's boyfriend was unfortunately a shit-head. Oh how Eren hated him. Both he and Jean made an agreement not to fight infront of Armin or argue. But that didn't really stop Jean from beating him up for no reason when Armin wasn't around. Eren rolled his eyes. Childish brat.

When Eren was done, he quickly washed the bowl and spoon before heading back to his room to get changed. His school allowed them to wear anything, there were some dresscodes of course, but they had to wear their school jacket everyday. Eren wore a black v-neck and some grey pants and slipped the jacket on. He grabbed his school bag and went out.

He made sure he didn't leave anything on before locking his door and began walking to school. The wind wasn't too cold just windy. It made Eren's hair fly everywhere. When Eren reached the entrance of the school, as usual, he saw Armin standing there waiting for him. It was like a routine kind of thing. Armin would wait for Eren to come to school everyday.

"Hey buddy." Eren smiled. "Hey Eren. Are you okay?" Eren nodded. "Don't worry I'm fine." Armin smiled in response. Eren made a gesture to go inside and they both walked into the school. "Did you hear we are getting a new nurse today? The previous one resigned." "Oh really?" Armin nodded. The previous nurse always used to bandage his wounds and stuff whenever he got in a fight and she was a nice lady Eren liked her. He hoped the new one was nice too.

The whole of today during school was rather okay. Sure he had a few boring subjects but he made it through. Armin had to go home before him as Armin had something to do. Eren said bye to him before walking out of school to walk home as well.

He was just about to walk out the gates when he felt a kick on his left leg. Eren tripped forward and managed to break the fall with his palms but it scraped his palms badly. Eren turned his head and saw Jean smirking down at him. Eren stood up and glared at Jean. "What do you want Jean." Jean laughed. "I saw you walking with Armin today at school. What? Now you want him?"

Eren looked at Jean at disbelief. "What no Jean listen we do this everyday. Armin will wait for me and we'll walk in together. That's what bestfriend do you know. And by the way, you've never seen it before till today because you always come late to class and it worries Armin alot you idiot!"

Jean's eyes widen. Armin gets worried? Wait no now isn't the time. Eren just called you an idiot. Make him pay. "What did you call me?" Eren scoffed."I called you an idiot because you can't even make sure your own boyfriend feels okay and not worried and insecure all the time." Eren folded his arms.

Then he felt another kick right in his stomach. That made him spit out some blood. Jean began kicking and kicking. He occasionally punched Eren. Eren didn't want to back down without a fight. He struggled to stand up and threw a punch right onto Jean's face. They both continued fighting before they heard a loud shout.

"Boys! Stop fighting!" It was the principal. They both stopped and turned to where the shout came from. They both saw the principal running towards them. They pushed each other away. "Why are you fighting? I want to see the both of you in the office. But before that let me bring you both to the nurse." Both boys nodded and followed the principal from behind.

"Ugh finally." Levi rolled his eyes. It was finally time to go back and school was over. Today was literally incredibly stupid. A few kids pretending they were sick to get out of class in which he kicked them out and forced them to go back, one with an accidental cut from art class and one which was genuinely sick and puked all over the floor. Levi cringed at the memory.

Levi made sure to disinfect the whole room after that. Now he was packing his bag and putting everything back in place. He was putting on his jacket when he heard a knock on the door. He didn't even bother to turn around. He heard the door opening and a clear of a throat.

"Uh Levi sorry to disturb you but please handle these two boys. They got in a fight and one looks badly injured. Please send them both to my office later thanks." With that the principal walked out. Levi let out a heavy sigh. Great. He took of his jacket. "Alright both of you sit on the chairs now."

Eren wobbled over to the chair and sat down. He was surprised when he heard the voice. It was very familiar. And his hair too. Eren wondered who it was. Then the nurse turned and immediately made eye contact with him.

Both their eyes widen.

Oh my god.

Its Levi.

Its Eren.

Levi was stunned for a second before he walked towards them. Levi put on his best acting skills. "Okay we'll start with you first two-toned. You look less injured. Now, I really don't care why you brats fought your principal will handle that but when I am treating you I highly expect no complains. Got that?" Jean gulped and nodded.

Eren was dumbfounded. Wasn't Levi shocked as well? He saw Levi treating Jean's bleeding face. When Jean jerked from the pain Levi glared at him and Jean quickly muttered an 'im sorry'. Eren laughed a little but nobody heard. This was so Levi. Soon, Levi was done bandaging Jean's wounds. "I'm done now go scurry off to the principal's room."

Before Jean left he gave Eren a stink eye and quickly walked out. There was total silence. Levi was leaning on the table with his arms folded and was staring at Eren. Levi realized he never knew what school Eren went to and so happened that his new job as a school nurse happened to be at the very school Eren was studying in.

He decided to treat Eren's wounds first. "Eren. Where does it hurt?" Levi was asking in a much softer tone. "U-Uh it hurts here." Eren pointed to his chest. "Would you take your shirt off for me? Just for medical purposes." Eren bit his lip and nodded. He was about to lift it but stopped halfway. He admitted he didn't have a very appealing body and was embarrassed by it.

Levi sensed this and placed his hand on Eren's hand and squeezed it before pulling away. "Hey. It's okay. Just let me have a look." Eren looked into Levi's grey eyes and it looked very assuring. Eren listened and took his shirt off. There was a huge bruise on it. Eren cringed.

Levi did a few examinations and made sure there wasn't any broken bones. There wasn't. Levi bandaged the rest of the wounds gently. He helped Eren put his shirt back on. Eren felt better. "Um you can go now I guess." Eren nodded softly. "Y-Yeah thanks." Eren reached for the door knob before he felt something grab his wrist and turned him around. He was suddenly met by Levi's lips against his. Eren's eyes widen.

Levi pulled away. Shit. I've done it again. "Sorry. I didn't mean that I mean- Just g-go." Eren wanted to say something but Levi turned around and walked away. Eren looked down and quickly went out.

When Levi was sure Eren was far away from the room, he groaned loudly and slammed his fist to the table. He let out mutiple angry breaths. What is happening? Why can't I control myself? Suddenly Levi noticed something. Is this fate? Is that why I can't control anything? Levi shook his head. No, think about that later you have to talk to Eren.

Levi decided to call Eren later at night. He needed to really apologize.
