Eren's POV

"Mr. Ackerman," I say as I caught him before he left the classroom, "is it alright if I can see Mikasa?"

He scoffs, trying to leave the classroom, but I wouldn't want him to leave. "Jaeger, why do you want to see her? Find her on your own time- do not waste mine." He said it with a deep growl, and Mrs. Ackerman already came by.

Before they started to leave, I gave one last cry. "Please- I don't know where Mikasa lives. You are her aunt and uncle... I want to make sure she's okay. She was pulled into the police station for some reason by the principal- please... I want to make sure she's okay."

Mr. Ackerman opened his mouth- probably to object. "You're worried for her, Eren?" Mrs. Ackerman asked, tilting her head.

I nodded my head. "Please... I'm worried for her."

The two looked at each other, almost like they were telepathically communicating something between them. Mr. Ackerman soon rolled his eyes, giving into the urge. "Fine- don't drag us down. Hurry up." He walks away towards the parking lot, leaving Mrs. Ackerman and I back.

"Come on, Eren." She says softly, leading me a distance away from Mr. Ackerman. "You'll get used to his tone."

"It's a curious question, Mrs. Ackerman..." I say gently, looking down at my feet as I walked across the tiled floors. "But uh... how did you and Mr. Ackerman meet...? How did you guys fall in love with each other... and how did you guys... well... just managed being with each other. The more and more I see Mr. Ackerman... it makes it seem like... he doesn't care about anything."

She laughs softly, continuing to walk. "Well... it's a long story... sometimes, it's hard to explain. We met in school... and after a few things happening... I felt safer with Levi. His attitude may seem empty, but he does care. He just... doesn't want to show it. I help him emotionally, and he helps me back in every way possible."

"This is another stupid question... but there were rumors about... what happened at your high school. What really happened when those murders stopped?"

Mrs. Ackerman shrugged her shoulders a bit as she continued. "Considering it was only guys being attacked... it seemed like they were a part of something- and this something was good at hiding. Secrets were exchanged constantly at school, Eren. I don't doubt that they may have been... involved in something shady. If anything... I'm glad that there are no more murders."

"I hate it how they are accusing Mikasa of all of these things, Mrs. Ackerman. These are just rumors..."

"Oh- down to find the truth, huh, Eren?" Mrs. Ackerman seemed to have perked up after hearing me. "That's good. We need more people like you. Protecting the ones who need protection... and ensuring that lies would never cover the truth."

I nodded my head, more determined to talk to Mikasa more than ever. "Yeah... I hate it..."
