Levi acted like a hormonal, teenage girl on her period when he had to deal with something he didn't like and going outside when it was cold was one of them.

He was scowling at nothing in particular but it was pretty easy to tell that he just didn't want to be out here. The only thing stopping him from running all the way back home where it was warm was the major fact that Eren was gripping his hand tightly.

It was spring but it was still cold like a winter day would and the frost formed on many windows began to drip as water. Levi was excited for spring because it was cleaning season and he would finally get the chance to clean the whole apartment without being questioned with odd stares from Eren.

They've been only walking around in their neighbourhood park for about twenty minutes now but to Levi it seemed like long, endless hours. All there in the park was damp benches and dead looking trees but acording to Eren he thought otherwise.

Levi wore his winter jacket that radiated heat easily while Eren just casually wore an oversized sweater that belonged to Levi. The older male didn't want to grow ill because then he would be too weak and Eren would probably trash the place because Levi would be so powerless.

"What a beautiful day it is," Eren said breathily and squeezed Levi's hand gently.

"Hmm mm," he muttered in response as he adjusted his scarf a little more.

"Lighten up, Levi, it's only for today and you promised anyways."

"Just because I promised doesn't mean I have to like it," he complained as a response. "Your ideas for dates are on the same level as an immature eleven year old."

Eren's face immediately filled with hurt which caught Levi off guard. He was always used to speaking his mind and he never really cared about anyone else's feelings besides maybe Eren.

"Hey," Levi said and placed his finger under Eren's chin. "I'm sorry, okay? Stop frowning, shitty brat."

Eren grinned a little when he heard his given permanent nick-name.

"I know. You always say rude comments like that anyways."

"No I don't," the shorter male protested. "I could be nice if I tried and that's usually only with you."

"That's still mean."

"I hate everyone except you and a few other people," Levi sighed.

"I feel loved."

"You should be, shit head."

They both walked for a really long time because they enjoyed each other's company and wanted nothing else but that at the moment. The crisp aid started to warm up a little as they decided to take a break and go to a small corner café.

It was right beside the small library store where they visited Christa when she was working shifts there but she wasn't here today.

The café was Paris themed which gave an atmosphere of a warm, cozy cabin in the woods for some odd reason. The tables and chairs were wire with fancy designs and the walls has French words painted in black, cursive writing such as 'Ceçi N'est Pas Un Pipe' with a antique looking pipe painting or 'Je T'aime à la Lune et Retour'.

Eren knew Levi was French so of course he asked what those words meant.

"Hmm 'This is not a pipe' by René Magritte and it made an appearance in that movie The fault in our stars. The other one says 'I love you to the moon and back'. Just quotes and sayings that those weird Tumblr girls would use," Levi told him as he grabbed his hand from under the table.

They've been while for quite some time but Eren was still awfully shy so Levi agreed to take this relationship as his chosen speed which was slow but as long as it made Eren feel comfortable and happy then it would be okay.

Eren squeezed his hand from under the table and showed him a shy, quick smile. They didn't talk much butit wasn't awkward because they were in love with the idea of being together and that was enough for the both of them.

Their waitress arrived after a couple of minutes. She was dressed in a small, black dress with long sleeves with a red apron over it and her fire red hair stuck in two pig tails like a child's but it looked great on her. Her name tag read the name 'Isabel'.

"Hello! I'm Isabel what would- what the fuck! Heichou the best Jinx ADC bot laner, is that you?" she asked and jumped back a little as she squinted at him with an expression of shock and surprise.

"No, you idiot, I'm the president of Japan," he said with a sarcastic tone of voice as he rolled his eyes and he looked quite annoyed but he smirked a few moments later. "I had no idea you were in this area because you never told me on League and please don't use my summoner name."

"Farlan dragged me here," she chuckled. "Do you live around here?"

"I've never seen you before besides on Skype and on Face time and you're asking me if I live here? Didn't you learn in school that people from the internet are dangerous," he said and rolled his eyes again.

"Haha," she mumbled. "I thought we were friends, big bro, you're more rude than I thought." She turned her head slightly to the side to take a peek at Eren who was just awkwardly looking out the window.

"Is this the Eren you kept talking about in our group chat? He described him perfectly and wow he does have nice collarbones," she commented and flashed a bright smile at the younger male. "Levi talks about you all the time you know and there was this once time our whole ranked time had to mute him because he wouldn't shut the fuck up about how beautiful your eyes were but he plays well when he talks about you on Skype. He once got a pentakill with Ziggs while talking about your lips-"

"Shut the hell up, Magnolia," Levi hissed in a whisper so they wouldn't attract too much attention.

"Levi's getting flustered whoaaa," she sang.

"I said shut up," he repeated with gritted teeth.

"Aw," Eren cooed and grinned. "That's sweet."

"Yes, isn't Levi the sweetest?" Isabel teased with her teeth pressed together.

"Shut up," Levi repeated with a low groan and Eren could feel that was beginning to feel iritated and angry because his hand shook in his. Like Eren, Levi had problems controlling his anger level when he was very mad and his tantrums were an estimated equivalant of twenty toddlers screaming their heads off because they didn't get that damned bear thay wanted at the toy store window.

"Hey," Eren whispered. "Stop being so grumpy towards your internet friend."

Isabel snickered and stuck out her tongue. "Anyways, I shouldn't stay around to chat for a long time. What do y'all want?"

"Hmm...I don't know. Two of what you think is best," Eren answered.

"Alright!"

She hurried off with a wide grin as she ran behind the counter.

"Oh shit she's so fucking annoying in person" Levi muttered.

"Why are you friends with her if you don't even like her? She seemed nice."

"For some reason I was born with the ability to befriend annoying, little shit heads who never leave me alone," Levi responded.

"What about me?"

"You're different, you're my shit head."

"Gee thanks."

Eren later left to use the washroom because he hasn't taken a piss since that early morning which was probably six hours ago. The bathroom had the same design as the café which I guess would make it more comfortable to take a crap.

Eren was only halfway inside the washroom when a strong force grabbed him behind and a large, yaoi hand covered his mouth to muffle his startled shouts and screams for help. He was kicking and punching frantically with all his might but it was no use because he wasn't strong enough. He was pinned against the wall face first and he tried desperately to see who the fuck was his intruder.

Cold, cruel fear started to flood through his veins and his heart was banging loudly against his rib cage. It was like he had no power over his arms or legs and he couldn't move because he was weak at the moment.

"At long last," a dry, deep voice murmured quietly. "I have found you."

Eren then bit his captor's hand but it wasn't enough to inflict too much pain to be freed. The intruder hissed but now Eren was able to see who it was and when he did he felt as if his heart fall right into the pit of his stomach.

The man's hair was a dark shade of brown but it looked more greasier than the hair of those weird boys in that book and movie The Outsiders. His face and mustache was dusted with dust and dirt and his circle framed glasses were blurry looking.

"G-Grisha?" Eren stammered in surprise.

"Call me father, you idiot, because that's who I am," he said firmly.

"What-why are you here?" Eren asked a little loudly and swallowed.

"Why ask, my son?"

"I am not your son! You're the spawn of the devil itself who deserves to burn for eternity," Eren snapped angrily. "A poor excuse like you doesn't deserve to be called a father if he acts like a fucking bitch all the time, you scum."

"How dare you," Grisha replied and narrowed his eyes. "After all I've done to you so that you wouldn't end up homeless and begging on the streets this is what you say after not seeing me for so long!"

"I didn't ask for any of this, you bastard. Living off on the street would be a hundred percent better than living under a roof with a monster like you."

"Why, you little shit-" his father was cut off as Eren stomped on his foot as hard as he could and tried running but it failed. He failed.

His father pulled him back by the collar and whipped something out from the pocket of his dirty, black coat,

"Stop!" Eren shouted and his voice echoed and bounced off the washroom walls. "Leave me alone!"

"You may have escaped me once but that won't end the fact that you're still my little lab rat," Grisha said evilly and pulled out a syringe with the sharpest needle he has ever seen.

"Stay away from me, you fucking bitch!" Eren yelled as flash backs of the past came slamming into his mind again.

It was like he was ten all over again. He had terrible memory but all he could remember was that his father forced unusual substances through his veins with many needles to see what would happen and of course all of them caused pain or severe head aches. He didn't want this to be a reenactment of that day.

He felt something peirce his arms as Grisha plunged the syringe into his arm and watched as the golden liquid enter his blood stream and as always, he started to feel like he was going to faint.

Just when he thought he was about to black out, the washroom door slammed open and Levi came running in with an angry expression on his face but it was too late; Eren was drugged once again like the old days.

"Get off him," Levi growled. "Get off my boyfriend, you shit head."

He made a run towards Eren's dad and forcefully grasped onto his shoulders and threw him away from Eren's twitching, stiff form. Eren couldn't see or hear much but all he could register was tons of screaming and police sirens. He saw his father run out the washroom and back into the outside world to probably cause even more chaos. Levi was screaming at him now with a face filled with fear and concern.

"Eren! Eren, please answer me. Dear, God, why is this happening!" he shouted as he swore violently under his breath and slammed his fist onto the cold. hard ground. "Eren, please, open your eyes. I will fucking kill you if you die I swear."

The green eyed boy manged to only lift one eye lid but he felt a wave of dizziness overwhelm him.

"Hurt," he croaked out painfully. "I...I'm hurt."

"Thank God you're alive," Levi choked out. He looked calm and solemn but he was shaking more than a tree branch on a windy day. He reached for Eren's hand but the younger boy instantly felt a shock run though his bones and skin like a lightning strike and his blood was on fire; he felt like his blood was acid and that it was slowly burning him alive. He screamed out in pain and intched away from Levi's welcoming arms.

"Eren, what's wrong?" Levi demanded.

"N-no not you too," Eren whimpereds adly. "Don't...don't hurt me too."

"I'm not hurting you, Eren, I swear." Levi told him. "Stop fucking around."

"Why did you hurt me?" he said and started to crawl away from him. "You...you said you'd never hurt me."

"Eren, come back here seriously this isn't funny," Levi claimed and reached for his hand again but to Eren it felt like having a bucking of lava being slowly poured out onto his skin.

"S-stop!" he shouted and his eyes began to fill with tears. It was too much, the pain was all too much and he just wanted to die to be away from it.

Levi looked so hurt and he still couldn't figure out what was the matter.

"Eren," Levi said softly. "Tell me what's wrong."

He was now huddled in the corner of the bathroom with his hands over his head and his body formed into a tight ball.

"It's new," he whispered fearfully. "The drug is new and I'm the first to test it."
