After School Encounter

After School At The Store

Eren was on his way to the store, wearing a navy blue coat, brown boots, jeans and a plain top. His emerald eyes were glistening in the night sky. It was 8pm and it was getting even darker. He continued walking listening to My Chemical Romance and thinking about how better life could've gone if all that happened back in his childhood didn't happen. He tried not to dwell on it.

Eren arrived at the store and got things he needed for tonight and tomorrow's meal, even treated himself to some chocolate. He had finished paying and was walking home, when he saw Levi.

Levi was leant against his motorbike in the parking lot having a cigarette, his hair was slightly spiked and he was wearing a leather jacket, a sleeveless shirt, skinny jeans and boots. He noticed Eren walking and went over to him. "Oi, Jaeger." Levi said, stopping on the sidewalk a few steps away from Eren. Eren slowly turned to face him as he whispered "Please don't hurt me." Repeatedly out loud. "I'm not gonna hurt you, come here." Levi stomped on his cigarette butt and gestured Eren over. "Your hands look like they're going blue, want a lift?" Levi asked, looking down at the hand that was out of his pocket holding on to the slightly heavy bag. "No... Thanks. It's alright." "No I insist. Here." Levi grabbed Eren's bag and put it in the under seat boot of his bike. "I only have one helmet so do you want to wear it?" "Oh well, sure. Thank you." Eren took the silver helmet from Levi's large hands and put it on. The inside of the helmet smelt fruity, like shampoo.

Eren and Levi lived if the same block of flats "Colossal Flats" so Levi took him the same way but pressed the elevator button to go to Levi's floor. "I live on floor 4, why are we going to 6?" Eren nervously asked leaning back on the elevator wall.
