Not another day

Leaving?

Levi's POV

My bully, Eren, goes to the same school as me and I couldn't switch schools. Why? Well, my parents are dead. I have no money and this school is pretty cheap. I had a job near there. And, couldn't move because this was my parents house. I couldn't leave the only thing that was part of me. Yeah, there was pictures of them, but the house was where we made all of our memories. It was were we celebrated Christmas, Birthdays, Thanksgiving, and everything else. We even had my father's funeral here. How could I even leave this place? 

My father built this house on his own when he met my mom. When I was 10, my father died because he was overworking himself. He had a job that paid well and he didn't have stay overtime, but he also wanted to make the house bigger and better as a surprise for my mom. A few years later, my mom died as well. I guess it was because she wanted to complete the house my father had started. She was out in the cold finishing the last layer of the roof. But she never got to finish. She had fallen down when she was trying to reach for the hammer. I called the ambulance and she was sent to the hospital. She was fine, but she had caught a cold, which made her wound even worse. Eventually, her body couldn't take it anymore and failed on her. She died the day after she was sent to the hospital.

To make the situation worse, Eren started to bully me. I don't know what I even did to him. The year before my mother died, we were fine. I mean, we weren't talking to each other, but we were doing fine. Sometimes he even talked to me and I would talk to him. When we talked, he was always smiling and looked so cheerful, but the same year my mother died, when I was in desperate need for someone to comfort me, he left me in the dark. That day when my mom died, he punched me. I was confused as why he did so. I tried to ask, but all he said was that it was ALL. MY. FAULT. 

ALL MY FAULT. ALL MY FAULT. ALL MY FAULT.

It was the only thing I could think about. What did I do? Was there something I did without knowing? Is it because I hadn't shown up the week before she died? I mean, before I left for the whole week, I told him I would be gone because I was going to help my mom finish most of the house. But, is he really mad because I left him? Why though? Why would he be mad because I didn't come to school? 

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEE-

I shut off my alarm. It was 8:00 AM. 

*sigh

It was time to go to school. 

-Time Skip- (At da school)

I walked up the school steps. The first thing I saw was Eren leaning on my locker. Was he waiting for me? No way. Why would he even care about me? He's probably gonna beat me up. I thought. I slowly walked towards my locker hoping that by the time I reached it, he was gone. Nope. He was staring at me with cold dark eyes. Before I was even 2 meters apart from my locker, he walked towards me. I kept walking thinking that he was walking past me and that cold stare was for someone behind me. I knew that that wasn't the case. Eren walked up to me and pushed me against the lockers behind me. 

"Why the fuck did you take so long just getting to your locker? Didn't you see me waiting for you, you little shit. I guess those legs are so short you can't walk any faster, am I right?" He said with a harsh tone. 

I looked up at him. He was looking at me waiting for an answer, which I never gave him. This pissed him off more.

"Fuck. Do you know how to speak? Maybe I should teach you?" He punched my stomach and I let out a groan.

"So you can speak, huh? Then answer me, why the fuck did you walk so slowly towards your locker when you saw me there?"

I looked at the ground clutching my stomach. I didn't want to answer him knowing I was going to get beaten, but if I didn't answer him, I would get beaten anyways. I decided to give him something.
