___________Your POV_____________
The first thing that you felt, when you regained consciousness, was a searing pain in your abdomen.
'Fuck, looks like I overdid it.' You think as you open your eyes, but as soon as you crack your eyes open, and straighten out your blurry vision, you hear the door open, you panicked and shut your eyes once more, acting like you were asleep.
"I know your awake, brat." A familiar voice of Levi rings in your ears.
"No, I'm not, I'm asleep." You say with your eyes still closed.
"Tch, open your damn eyes, before I pry them open." Levi hisses.
Reluctantly, you opened your eyes, only to be greeted with a vicious glare.
"You have a lot of explaining to do." Levi hisses.
"I know." You say, looking down.
"You could've died because of your reckless decision!" Levi shouts.
"I know." You say, still keeping your gaze lowered.
"Then why the hell did you do it!? You made me a fucking promise, and you broke it!" He continues to shout.
"I know." You repeat.
"Is that all you can say, 'you know'!? If you fucking knew then why the hell did you do it!" Levi shouts, but instead of keeping your gaze lowered, you finally meet his glare.
"Because, I wanted to protect people. If I held back, then more people would've died. I don't want that. If I have the power to protect someone, then I'll do it. Even if it means risking my life." You say calmly.
You see Levi's eyes widen a bit, before regaining his composure.
"So, you don't care if you left me behind too." Levi mutters.
"That's not what I mean, and you know it." You say.
"Then what do you mean, (F/N)?" Levi asks, his voice devoid of any emotion.
"I wanted to protect you!" You shout, and you could feel your eyes start to heat up, and your throat starts to strain out your voice.
Levi's expression changes into one of shock.
"I know it was a selfish decision, but if I didn't fight, you would've! What would happen if you got hurt instead of me, huh!? I would never forgive myself for it!" You continue to shout, as tears start to slowly cascade down your face.
You saw Levi's expression soften a bit, before he awkwardly hugs you.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to shout." He mutters.
"Its fine." You say, as you haphazardly wipe your tears away.
"But, you also have to realize that I'm not weak, I'm humanities strongest soldier, remember." He says as he tries to comfort you.
You nod your head, as you return the hug.
"I should also apologize, I didn't mean to make you worry." You say as you bury you face into his shoulder, trying to hide the blush that is currently painting your cheeks.
After a few minutes of staying in this position, you and Levi finally pull apart.
"How long was I out for?" You ask.
"About three and a half days." Levi says.
"I see, and what about the female titan?" You ask.
"She has herself in a crystal type cocoon, and as far as we know, we can't crack it open." Levi says.
"How about my wounds?" You ask.
"They've been healing perfectly fine, and the wound should fully close up in about two weeks, your lucky only a few of the stiches popped, and not the whole thing." Levi says.
"I know, and should I know about anything else?" You ask.
"Yeah, I also got a new squad." Levi says as he sits down in a nearby chair.
"I see." Was all you could say as the room once again fell silent.
___________Levi's POV____________
I was about to open my mouth, in order to stop the awkward silence between us, but a loud growling sound stops me.
I look towards (F/N), only to find her with a red face.
I let out a chuckle, as (F/N) covers her head with the blanket.
"Shut up, I haven't had anything to eat yet." Her muffled voice which is heard beneath the blanket.
"Yeah, whatever, let's just go get something to eat, its about time for dinner." I say as I get up from the chair.
"Wait, I'm allowed to move around?" She asks, as her head pops up.
"As long as you don't overdo anything." I say.
"Yes sir!" She shouts as she jumps up.
I slap her upside the head.
"Ow! What was that for!?" She whines.
"I told you, don't do anything that strains your wounds." I say.
"Fine." She sighs as we begin to make our way towards the mess hall.
Once there, (F/N) and I walk up and grab our food, we then sit down in our usual spots.
"Its good to see you up again, (F/N)." Eren says as he sits down across from you, along with Mikasa and Armin.
"Its good to be up." She says as she takes a bite of food.
____________Your POV_____________
As you were eating, some kid with two toned hair, and suspiciously resembled a horse, had come towards you.
"Hey, your the woman that's suppose to be from the future, right?"
You simply nod your head as you take another bite of food.
"I also heard that you used to be in the military from your time, right?" He asks, earning another nod.
"Prove it." He states smugly.
You turn around, giving him a confused look, while saying "Why should I?"
"Because, you could easily be lying about it, and I want to know if its true." He says.
"Jean, stop it." Eren says, trying to stop him from doing something that would end badly.
You simply held up your hand.
"Fine." Was all you said.
You started to take your belts off of your upper torso, after getting them off, you take your shirt off, earning a few blushes from the male cadets.
But, you only revealed your (F/C) sport bra.
___________Levi's POV____________
As soon as that brat, Jean, asked her to prove she was in the military, I was about to stop him, by giving him stable duty, but before I could open my mouth, I see (F/N) raise her hand, followed by a short "Fine".
I then see her start to take her belts off.
'What the hell is she planning?' I think as I continue to watch.
I then see her start to take her shirt off, I then see a few cadets blush, and I let out a low annoyed growl.
But, luckily I see that she was wearing a (F/C) sports bra.
However, when I stared at her back, and side that isn't covered in the bandages from her abdomen wound, I am shocked.
Scars litter almost every part of her exposed flesh.
Some faded, while others are clearly visible.
The one that caught my eye, was the scar that went from underneath her chin, the one that caused her to go mute.
It started from underneath her chin, then almost covering her entire side, before stopping at the bottom of her rib cage, whi is barely visible by the bandages.
"What the hell." I mutter.
I then see (F/N) begin to walk up to Jean.
"You see, when I was in the military, I was caught by the enemy one time. They tortured me, trying to get information about what we were planning, or where our headquarters were, but I never once gave in." She says, now standing in front of Jean.
"Now, let me ask you this, boy." She begins as she glares at the kid.
"Where are your scars, huh? The ones that prove that you saved someone, the ones that protected someone, or the ones that carry horrible memories of being continuously tortured for information that you refuse to give. Because, the way I see it, I see an inexperienced brat, that doesn't know shit. Once you earn these scars, then you will understand the pain and hardships that you signed up for, and let me tell you this, some scars aren't visible, those are the ones that will cause you more pain then anything that you have ever felt. So, let me ask you again. Where are your scars?"
That's all she says, before putting her shirt back on, and adjusting her belts, before sitting back down, leaving the stunned brat standing there, shocked.
Hell, even I was.
"You okay?" I quietly ask her, as she takes a bite of food.
She gives me a slight nod, before continuing to eat her food in peace.
No one said a word, everyone ate silently.
You could almost hear everyone think about the words the young (H/C) haired woman said.
After dinner was done, me and (F/N) were walking towards our room.
Once there, I was about to enter my office/room, I feel (F/N) tug at my sleeve, I look up to see her looking down, and blushing.
"Can I sleep with you tonight." She mutters, almost inaudibly.
I simply nod my head, before entering my office, then my room.
(F/N) following closely behind.
I grabbed some clothes, and went to the bathroom in order to change into my night clothes.
When I went back out, I already see that (F/N) is in her nightgown, and asleep on my bed.
"Damn brat." I mutter under my breath, as I give a slight smile.
I quietly crawl into bed, and I wrap my arm around her waist before gently pulling her into my embrace.
Her head is gently tucked underneath my chin, as she buries her head into my chest before wrapping her arm around my waist.
I soon fall into a peaceful sleep, as I gently hold (F/N) in my arms.
