Broken Past {Levi X Reader}

Chapter Five: Strange Bonds and Drunk Dads

      Enjoy this bit of eye candy =)

Also, important AN, idk Levi's age. I think he's over 30 in the anime, but he's gonna be younger in this. Right now he's 17 in this time period, but I'll let y'all know his age later in the story. I just don't want there to be a huge age difference if that makes sense. TwT sorry.

      I thought things would change after joining their group, but nothing did. I still worked at the bakery, and dealt with thieves (funny coming from me). I still played piano at random events. I still stole. A lot. One thing did change however, and it was our stealing techniques. Due to the 3DM gear, we have stolen a whole lot more and got away with a whole lot more. We even began gaining Fame in  the Underground. Strangely enough though, our group and The Levi Group hold no ill will towards each other.

            "(N/N)~ how's it going?", Louis yelled running up to me after work... Before giving me a big Bear hug. "Louis, I swear to God I'll actually murder you.", I said giving him a cold glare. This just made him giggle. "Louis, (Y/N).", Grace said acknowledging our presence. "Hello", Miguel said nodding in our direction. "Loouuuiisss", Gabrielle yelled. Before any of us knew what was happening, she had jumped onto his back.

           "So what's the plan? Are we gonna go home and look for some money for dinner or are we just gonna steal some food?", Grace asked, hands on her hips. "We're already out let's just steal some.", Louis answered. We all nodded in agreement. "Are we using or 3DM gear or just going on foot?", She questioned again. I spoke up,"Let's just go on foot. We should save our gas. Remember how hard it was to get gas last time we ran out?". We all agreed.

              "So what's the plan?", Miguel whisper yelled to Louis. "You see that small little merchant cart? The one with the meats hanging up, vegetables, jewelry, and children's toys. Grace and Gabrielle are gonna distract the merchant by asking about the toys. Without drawing attention to herself, (Y/N) is gonna look at the jewelry and put one or two in her pockets. Then, she's gonna ask about a cheaper piece of jewelry and make conversation about it. Meanwhile, Miguel and I are gonna pick some food off of him while he's distracted. We'll have 10 minutes to steal, after that long you three will head back to the house. We'll meet you there.", Louis said proud of his plan.

           "Excuse me, Mister. How much is this cute little doll?", Gabrielle asked the merchant giving him a look that would make anyone melt. "It's 35$. It was made in Mitras, the capital city.", He presented proudly. "It's so pretty.", She said curling hits hair between her fingers. "Sir. How much are these little books?", Grace said picking up a child's book. "That is 15$. But why would a little girl like you want a book? Why not a doll or bows?", He questioned. "They're way too girly.", She said matter-of-factly. That's right.... Just keep talking.... I slipped a necklace into my pocket.

           "Excuse me sir.", I called out to him, while giving a fake friendly smile. "I've got a question about this beautiful necklace", I said as I pointed to a gold necklace with a gold and silver pendant. "I've got an answer.", He said giving me a flirtatious smile. Gross. "How much do you sell this for?", I asked putting my elbow on the side of the cart, and returning the flirtatious grin. Gross. Gross. Gross. "It was made in the capital city, and it sells for 70$.", He said, "but I'm sure for a beautiful girl like you, I can make a cheaper bargain...". Boii, you are like 40 back off before I make you. "How would we do that...?", I said cringing as I played along. He grabbed my hand, "I'm sure we could find a way. I looked over, and saw that Grace and Gabrielle were crossing the street and heading back to the boys.

          "I'm sorry, but I must go.", I said, hiding my relief that I was leaving the creepy merchant. He tightened his grip on my hand. "Why is that...?", He said without loosening his grip. "My brother is waiting on me.", I said making up an excuse."He can wait a bit longer.", He pulled me closer to him. Damn it.
   
       "She doesn't want to go with you. If you can't tell, she's just a child.", A scaringly calm voice behind me said.  suddenly. "This isn't any of your business.", The merchant replied. I turned to the voice behind me. ... Levi? I turned and I saw the short Raven haired boy.
 
          The merchant kept his grip on my arm. "Let. Her. Go.", Levi said staring daggers into the merchant. "Do you want to stay here with him?", Levi looked at me and asked. "No... I don't...", I said slightly embarrassed Levi, of all people, had to come help me. The merchant released my arm, grumbling. I mumbled a thanks to Levi, and headed to the group's house. As I was walking, I realized Levi was still walking beside me.
