"Eren. Have your medicine."
Eren and Levi were now in the boys' room, for everybody had gone out to kill Titans. Eren was stuck here, having to shove those nasty-tasting pills down his throat.
"For Pete's sake," Said boy muttered, grouchy from the harsh wake-up (Levi had yelled him awake). He snatched the glass of water Levi was impatiently holding out for him. Then, with so much hesitation he began trembling, Eren held the pills in his hands. He drew them nearer to his slightly-open mouth, and then-
"I can't!" Eren shrieked, dropping the pills on the floor, ignoring their bounce. "I just can't do it! I don't wanna take these pills; they make my life more of a living hell than it already is!"
Levi sighed, picked up the pills from the floor, and threw them out. He tipped out new ones and, instead of handing them to Eren, he walked around until he was behind the teen, then slithered his hand around the boy's neck, tilting his chin up. "You can do it, Eren," Levi said sternly. "I know you can."
"No," Eren whispered, his voice breaking. "I can't, Corporal! I've tried it before! They don't work!"
"Yes you can!" Levi's voice had raised dangerously. "Just do it! Come on, I'll feed them to you!"
Eren let out a cry of frustration, but parted his trembling lips. He felt Levi slowly place them in his mouth; they rested on his tongue. Panicking, Eren felt the pills slip and he quickly chugged the glass of water down.
The pills were now making their way in his stomach.
"See, Eren? I knew you could do i-"
"Leave."
...
Levi glared at Eren as he let go, but the guilt of forcing the depressed male was heavy within him.
"Just go!" Shouted Eren, his back turned as he immediately sat on his bed and put his face in his hands.
Levi turned around, but right when he was about to leave, he looked back over his shoulder and said quietly, "I'm still going to help you."
"GO AWAY!!!" Eren's broken and hoarse voice forced a yell, and finally, the guilt and sadness like mush in his veins, Levi left the boy to cry.
