Flashing Eyes

Not as Weak as One Might Think

Eren's POV*

I was practically blinded by colour when I opened my eyes. I saw Levi, fucking Levi, lying asleep at the edge of the bed where I slept. His mouth was opened slightly, eyes closed. His ears twitched, and he breathed quietly. I smiled at how cute-no.

Then I saw Hanji's nose bleeding from across the room where I lay.

"So cuuute!~" She squealed. I blushed.

"What? No, I just"

"I ship it!" She wiped her nose, staunching the blood flow.

I frowned. "Ugh, how long was I out anyhow?"

"You passed out for about two days."
TWO DAYS?! I felt my eyes widen, "What?!"  My voice sounded fragile.

"Yeah, someone poisoned your gas, so you were basically poisoning yourself by training. They also thinned your lines. Luckily, your titan regernating powers fought off the poison and Levi here caught you before you hit the ground. Then he proceeded to carry you, bridle sty-"

"Shut up, shitty glasses." Levi was awake now, glaring at Hanji.

"But it was so cuu-"

"Shut. Up." He was looking away from me, but I could see his natural ears were red. Along with my face.

"But Leviii~"

"But nothing." He stood up from his chair beside my bed and walked off stiffly. I, being my eloquent self, sat in embarrassed silence. My arm and ankle ached, so I didn't try to follow him, then again, what would be the point?

"By the way, your ankle and arm are broken. You are going to have to rest for a another few days, since we all know any longer of a wait and you'd get cabin fever extreme." No shit, Hanji.

"I kinda figured."

 

Levi's POV*

I stood pacing in my room. I had fucking fallen asleep beside that brat. And then, when I wake up, Hanji's making it sound like I'm his knight in fucking shining armour and then I just blush and walk out. What the fuck? He probably thinks I'm some middle aged asshole who has feelings for his subordinate.
Then again...

Shut the fuck up, brain. No way am I developing feelings for that brat. Fuck to the no.

I sigh, remembering how I'll have to yell at the people during dinner tonight about Yeager's 'incident'.  More like sabotage, but I still don't want to be in the mess hall, that morning when I smelled that grease made me feel sick to my stomach. Not like I have much of a choice, though.

"As you may have noticed, Yeager hasn't been around for the past few days. Anyone care to guess why?" My voice was cold, as typical. Everyone looked at me, no one saying a single word.

"Well, someone sabotaged his gear. They poisoned his gas and thinned his lines. It was obviously a threat on his life, I doubt any of you would have a guess as to who the perpetrator is?" I saw Ackerman in the back looking she was about to go on a murder spree. I had heard complaints that she had been kicking the shins of people who mentioned Eren for the past two days, constantly questioning. It doesn't surprise me.

"We will find out who did this, so I suggest if you have any idea who may have done this, you come forward, unless if when they get caught you want to be imprisoned with them." With that, I walked out of the mess hall, taking a deep breath of the air, getting that sickening feeling away from myself. My mind wandered and I nearly tripped when it entertained the idea of  Yeager being attractive. I nearly choked on air. I entered my room and sat on my bed, letting my heated face cool off.

 

No. No, I will not be attracted to Yeager.
