Previously- Eren smiled lightly and laid down facing up next to Levi's back. He tried not to pull the fragile captain close to his chest as to not cross a boundary; but Levi rolled over and put his hand gently on Eren's firm chest, in his sleep, making Eren want to tackle the little raven head. He didn't and decided to casually hold the small pale hand under his, as to not wake up its owner.

Eren didn't want to move. Well, he couldn't move if he didn't want to have the shit beat out him. You see when Eren woke up him and Levi were in a different position than when they went to sleep. Eren had basically grabbed Levi, in his sleep, and coddled him to his chest so there was barley room between them. Eren was scared to say the least, and he was devising a plan to move before Levi woke up and beat his ass. He thought up a plan that might work because it was early, but Levi would wake up any minute. Levi always woke up early and Eren knew that, plus the sooner they leave the better because less people will spot them.
Eren slowly grabbed Levi's waist and slowly pushed him away so he was laying down on his back. As much as Eren would like to hold him forever he didn't want to get beat up first thing in the morning. Especially by an angry Levi. Just then Eren heard a muffled screech and it startled him so much that...he jumped and fell on one of his hands witch ended up on the left side of Levi's head. He managed to catch Levi from falling back hard by putting his other hand on the small of his back. Eren froze unsure of what to do as Levi started to wakeup, gripping the pillow a little tighter. What should he do? He didn't have time to decide, however, because an out of breath crazy girl burst into the room startling both love birds fully awake. And let me tell you it was awkward. Eren's hand had somehow traveled further South to Levi's hips while Hanji just stared at the two boys, all three with flushed faces.
Silence
Heavy breathing, slow at first, broke the silence. Hanji had a nose bleed and her glasses were fogging up too. She started squealing and Eren couldn't blame her. To anyone else it would look like Eren and Levi were getting their smexy on. And the flush on their faces didn't make it any better. To Hanji and everyone else who had burst in the room this is what they looked like: Levi was in a dress that was ruffed up to his mid thighs, one strap hanging off of his right shoulder and his hands gripping Eren's shoulders. Eren was holding the small of Levi's back making it arch. He also had both legs on either side of Levi's thighs and his other hand next to Levi's head.

"Uh did we interrupt something?" Asked Armin, who's face was flushed. In that moment Eren and Levi looked at each other.
Then Eren suddenly jumps away and sits up while Levi scrunches himself against the headboard.
"Uh its not what it looks like," Eren explained waving his hands at his friends.
"Suuuuure" Sasha teased as she ate a potato. Hanji started to shake and Armin immediately covered her mouth as she started screaming. Connie started wiggling his eyebrows next to Sasha and Jean just gave them a smirk. Then everyone heard squealing but it wasn't from Hanji. The people blocking the door moved to see a squealing Lee in the door way. Hanji eyes started shining and she ran to Lee as Armin couldn't hold her.
"YOU SHIP IT TOO!?" Hanji screeched while bouncing up and down. Lee gasped dramatically and held Hanji's hands and bounced with her.
"BY THE WALL, YASSSSSSS!" Lee squealed. Levi sighed closing his eyes.
"Great, another one..." He mumbled and everyone shivered at the thought of another Hanji. One was enough but at least Lee can contain herself better.
"You should have seen them earlier!" Lee giggled wickedly.
"Gasp! Were they being cute!" Hanji screeched, everyone covered their ears and prepared themselves. It was gonna get loud, Lee has never truly seen the power of Hanji's fangirling. It's a nightmare for people who don't fangirl/boy.
"I'll tell you ALL about it later but for now lets talk business." Lee said dramatically holding her hand over her heart and looking away like it was the end of the world.
"sniff ok," Hanji said wiping away a fake tear. Everyone in the room figured that Hanji just made a new friend.
"Sooooo..." Eren started awkwardly. Everyone looked at him and Lee cleared her throat.
"They arrived here right before Ms. Hanji came in here." Lee said sweetly.
"Tch, all the way here she was raving about her Titan baby and her little shorty,"Jean complained making air quotes with his fingers while he talked. Hanji shot him a glare and he got freaked out so he hid behind Armin who tried to move but Jean kept him there. Lee decided to ignore the antics and started talking.
"We need to find a way to sneak Levi out of here," She said getting serious. Everyone in the room stopped playing around.
"Can't he just come back with us?" Asked jean. Everyone looked at the platinum haired doctor.
"Unfortunately, not. As you may all be aware the people who attacked Levi and the crowd yesterday was linked on the fact that information about Levi was leaked and is now wanted for arrest."
"What? That's what the attack and that crowd was about?" Someone asked in disbelief.
"What kid of information was leaked that could cause all this?" Ymir asked. Everyone looked at Lee and she opened her mouth to answer but she was interrupted by another voice.
"That I'm a criminal." Levi said softly looking down, his bangs casting a shadow over his eyes so no one could read his expression.
"But how do you know they aren't just lying?" Christa asked genuinely concerned which surprised Levi slightly.
"Yeah, whoever did this could be trying to get people to not trust you by lying to everyone." Eren agreed but Levi shook his head and looked up staring Eren right in the eyes.
"They aren't lying." He stated.
"But you don't even know what the rumors are." Eren bravely argued.
"I do, because the only way anyone could even know I was a criminal, is if they somehow got into Erwin's office and stole my file. And that file has a list of every crime I committed before being forced into the survey corps to pay for them. I'm sorry but everything they leaked is most likely true." Levi scanned the faces of everyone in the room with his usual stoic look. But looked down as to avoid the faces of what he expected to be rejection, anger, or even disgust. However, when the room was filled with silence he looked up again confused.
As he looked around at the room again he noticed everyone looked like they were thinking. They were internally debating wether or not to trust their captain. Then Jean sighed loudly, making everyone turn their attention to him.
"Ah fuck it."He said rolling his eyes and crossing his arms,"Who cares if your wanted for murder or whatever the hell you're wanted for? You're still our captain and we have no choice but to trust you. Besides you've saved all of us before so its only right that we save you this time."
"I think that's the most intelligent thing you've ever said horseface." Ymir laughed putting her arm around Jean's shoulders and ruffling his hair. Jean glared at her and shoved her off.
"Don't call me that!" He yelled, clearly annoyed. Everyone laughed and turned back to a speechless Levi. Hanji ran up to him and hugged him tightly.
"Levi you're my BEST friend! How could that ever change just because of some stuff you've done in the past?" She exclaimed after being pushed away lightly by Levi. It was true, Levi and Hanji were best friends ever since Isabel and Farlan died. She had helped him through dark times and is the only one who has seen him smile. Even though Hanji can be annoying and despite how Levi acts like he doesn't like her, he wouldn't want to have anyone replace how close he is as a friend with Hanji.
"Really?" Levi asked. Everyone gained a determined smiled as they looked at one another. And what happened next, Levi had to refrain from crying right then and there. All the Cadets, including Eren, line up, stand up straight, and saluted Levi. Hanji smiles and nods her head to Levi and he returns the gesture.
"You see them Levi," Hanji stated," We all still trust you."
"If you're ready to leave, I know a way you can get out of here." Lee suggested smiling. Levi sat there for a moment then breathed in deeply.
"Ok," He said calmly," Let's go."
All the cadets smiled even brighter. He grabbed Eren's Jacket that he had taken off and handed back to Eren.
"Hai!" They all said in unison before relaxing and turning to listen to what Lee has to say.
