Scale

Hearing the alarm ring I wanted to roll over and ignore it, but then I remembered that I was going to be working on my power tonight. I actually got excited thinking about it. I sat up and Levi gave me a smile as he silenced the alarm. "Looks like you're ready to practice?" He asked already knowing the answer.

"Yup, and I have a good feeling about tonight," I said happily kicking my feet off the side of the bed. I leaned over and gave him a quick kiss on the lips before getting up and getting ready.

Levi was already dressed by the time I got out of the bathroom. What a shame, I was hoping if I hurried I would get a nice view.

"Hey if that's what you want then all you have to do is ask," Levi said giving me a little wink as he walked past me into the bathroom.

I picked my jaw off the floor and shook my head. I can't get distracted. Focus, I have to have a clear head tonight. I grabbed my jacket and put my shoes on. I started grabbing some of the books and putting it in the backpack as Levi came out of the bathroom.

"You grab the blanket and the scale and I'll grab-," I was cut off when I tried to pick up and throw the bag over my shoulder. It barely lifted off the ground and instead scooted over and fell back on my foot. "Fuck!" I winced getting my foot out from under the bag. I knew it would be heavy but I think I underestimated just how much.

"I think you mean you'll grab the blanket and scale," Levi said before pointing to the backpack stuffed with the heaviest books I could find. "I'll take this," he said moving his hand so gracefully. The bag lifted off the floor with ease and hovered over towards him. He put the straps of the backpack on despite it still hovering just above his back.

I quietly grabbed the scale and the blanket as my own boyfriend showed me up. "Hey, you'll be able to do this too one day. That's what we are working towards remember," he smiled and I just rolled my eyes.

"Yeah I know, but you can do it so effortlessly." I thought about how last night when I tried to use my powers to save Armin how my own power not only knocked the wind out of me but also drained my energy and almost made me blackout. "Did you ever have any of those issues?" I asked hearing how stupid it sounded. I know he has points where his powers go haywire why was I asking such a dumb question.

"I still do."

"Sorry, I forgot for a minute. You just make it look so easy."

"Well, it takes lots of practice," he walked towards the door before gesturing for us to head out, "which is exactly what we are going to do."

"You're right," I smiled and I followed him out of the room. I locked the door after us and we headed to the cafeteria to pick up some food. After picking up some food we made our way out to the field. I kept staring at the backpack the whole way out there.

"No it's not heavy," Levi finally said as we approached our usual spot.

"Sorry," I mumbled realizing that I've been mentally asking that since we left the dorm. I spread out the blanket and he set down the backpack next to us on the grass.

"It's fine, let's eat," he said plopping down on the blanket and setting his food in his lap.

"Okay," I said sitting down next to him dropping the scale on the blanket.

"Also Eren, remember if you see someone running towards the cliff don't go jumping off the edge," he teased.

"Yeah, I know smartass. I tell you," I rolled my eyes.

"Good I'm just making sure you know," he smiled before taking a bite of his food. We ate quietly for a few minutes until we finished our food. I couldn't stop staring at the backpack the whole time.

"Relax, I'm sure you'll do great," Levi said patting me on the shoulder, "and even if it's not perfect, that's okay. We are practicing."

"You're right," I nodded before taking a deep breath and giving him a smile. I can do this.

We both stood up and Levi started unpacking all the books. He tied them all together and nodded at me, "ready?"

"As I'll ever be," I said, taking a few steps forwards over to the scale that we had put on the grass. Levi used his powers to lift the books onto the scale before releasing them.

I looked at the weight 27 pounds. That's heavier than I thought it would be. That landed on my foot earlier. No wonder it hurt. I could feel the black and blue mark forming on my foot.

"So first we are going to work on trying to make them weightless but not fully weightless.," Levi said and I gave him a confused look.

"So you're going to make them lighter since it says 27 pounds try making it like 10 to 15 pounds."

"Um, alright," I mumbled trying not to stress myself out with negative thoughts. I took a deep breath and tried my best. I remembered how heavy they felt when I tried to lift them early and I mentally tried to imagine how it would feel to take out a few of the books. I opened my eyes and saw that the weight was 2 pounds. Shit, that's not what I wanted. Maybe I can't do it.

"No negative thoughts," Levi groaned. "It's a start, it says 2, not 0."

"You're right," I took a calming breath and closed my eyes tried to add some weight to it. When I opened them it said... 2 pounds. I let out a frustrated sigh.

"Try keeping your eyes open. Maybe closing your eyes you're imagining adding the weight but your power isn't actually doing it," Levi suggested and I nodded. I took a breath and closed my eyes before opening them again realizing that I was supposed to keep them open.

I looked at the books that I felt like should be added to make the weigh heavier and I tried to release those individually from my power. I looked down at the scale and saw it was now at 9 pounds. I almost did it! I released one more book and watched the weight pop up 13 pounds.

"I did it!" I said excitedly dropping my focus.

"You did," Levi said happily. "Now the hard part," he said looking back at the weight. "Try and get it higher, but not really high just a few pounds. Let's say between 30-40 to start. Just aim for 35 if you can."

He was giving me a bigger ranger knowing that this power is harder for me to control, but I still don't think 10 pounds is enough since before I've been adding a couple hundred extra.

"Just try, again this is practice. If you can't do it then we know what you need to work on," he said, placing a hand on my shoulder giving me a comforting smile.

"You're right," I said taking a deep breath. I closed my eyes despite knowing I wasn't supposed to. I didn't want to see this trainwreck. I took another deep breath and started adding weight. I just hoped the I didn't break the scale.

When I felt like I added enough weight I opened my eyes expecting to see hundreds of pounds on there.

"Wow," I said, seeing that it was only at 93. "Not as bad as I thought, I thought it was going to be in the 300's.

I kept my eyes open this time as I tried to lessen the weight I was adding. I watched the numbers slowly drop until I got to 50.

"I'm so close," I whispered to myself, "yet so far."

"Closer than ever," Levi said and I nodded.

"It's definitely an improvement." I took another deep breath and really focused until I hit 41. "Almost there," I mumbled before closing my eyes. When I opened them I was on the floor and Levi was holding me in his arms.

"Eren are you okay?" he asked looking at me really scared.

"Sorry, I must have blacked out."

"You did good but we're done for today," Levi said quickly.

"No!" I said quickly sitting up. My head spun for a second. "I was so close, "I just need a little break and then I know I can do it."

"We pushed your power to hard."

"I know, but I can do this. I need to do this," I said desperately. "I'm getting better but I need to prove to myself I can do it." I gave him the biggest puppy dog eyes I could while remaining determined. I wasn't leaving until I did this.

Levi just stared at me for a moment before letting out a defeated sigh. "Your eyes are my weakness," he mumbled and shook his head. "Fine, but if you blackout again promise me you will stop, we can try again tomorrow."

"Okay, I can agree to that," I nodded. "Just one more try."

"Okay, but give it a little while," Levi said helping me to my feet. We walked back over to the blanket to relax for a while before trying again.

After about an hour I had gotten antsy and couldn't wait any longer. I stood up even though Levi told me I should rest for a little longer. When he saw I wasn't going to listen he got up and stood next to me probably so he could catch me if I black out again.

I looked at the weight and 27 stared back at me. Okay, I can do this. I was one point off last time. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes hoping that it was less than a hundred again before using my powers on the stack of books. I opened my eyes and saw that it was already down to 50.

"You're not helping are you?" I turned to Levi who shook his head.

"Nope, that's all you babe," he smiled.

I felt a big smile spread across my face before looking back at the scale and taking a breath. Not that far to go now. I watched as the numbers dropped easier this time around. I was back down to 41 in about a minute of using my powers whereas last time it took me longer than 10.

I paused to take a breath, "Just one more at least," I mumbled before using my powers and watching it drop down to 35 and stop.

"Eren," Levi said sounding so proud.

"I did it," I said almost not believing it. Levi said aim for 35 and I hit it. Dead on the mark. It only took me two tries. "I can control my powers," I said, letting go of the books and turning back to Levi excitedly throwing my arms around him. "Sure it takes a few minutes but I can do it."

"I'm so proud of you babe," he said kissing me on the cheek. "I knew you could do it."

After the excitement wore off I could feel the exhaustion. "Oh man I really overdid it," I said with an awkward laugh.

"Just a little," Levi nodded, "you're not used to using your powers for long drawn out activities just yet, but it's okay we will work on that later." he laughed, "but I think we should head to bed. He said checking the time. "We can turn in a few minutes early."

"I'd like that," I nodded and we both headed back to the dorm to get some sleep before class starts.

We headed back to the dorm before getting a few hours of sleep. I woke up pretty well-rested despite feeling so tired last night. After we got ready for class we bumped into Jean and Marco and walked to class with them. After taking our seats ni Hanji's class I looked at Armin and Mikasa to make sure they were feeling okay. Armin slept in her room last night.

They both seemed to be doing better than when I last saw them. Armin didn't have bags under his eyes tonight and Ymir seemed to be smiling and looking at Armin. Looks like someone has a message for him since she seems to be whispering to a spirit. She looked at me too. And when I smiled at her and gave her a confused look trying to mentally ask if she was talking to who I think she was talking to.

She just nodded and pointed at Armin Mikasa and then me. I knew that meant it was a message for all of us, but that would have to wait for lunch. I'm sure it's grandpa just trying to tell us he's okay.

I decided to distract myself from the depressing topic and focus on the class. Hanji was teaching, but at the same time, I wasn't that interested in this topic. I looked at Levi who seemed to be focused on what she was saying. Rather than sit here bored I decided to entertain myself.

I looked at Levi before closing my eyes and letting my imagination run wild. I heard Levi clear his throat and I opened my eyes. He just glared at me before going back to listening to Hanji. I just shrugged before closing my eyes again thinking about the same thing but in more lewd details.

"Knock it off," I heard him whisper harshly before trying to go back to listening to Hanji.

I just smiled and kept thinking about Levi's lips as he moaned under me how his whole body twitches when you've hit the right spot and how he makes the cutes noises when-.

A pencil flew at my face but I stopped it before hitting me. I just looked at it as it floated in place in front of me. I used my powers to set it back on Levi's desk like he never threw it at me. "I think this is yours," I said teasingly.

He tried to pick it up but I just smiled as I saw him fail. He looked up at me and I just gave him a devious smirk.

"Looks like you've finally got the hang of it."

"Well, after throwing myself off a cliff with nothing to rely on but my power sure changes things. Oh and so did last night's practice," I added knowing that that is what definitely helped me get this trick down. However, the only reason it was possible was because I opened myself up to my power... by throwing myself off the cliff.

"I told you you'd get the hang of it," he whispered with a small smile.

"Yeah, you just failed to mention that in order to do so I would have to watch my friend nearly die and potentially risk my life," I raised an eyebrow.

Levi just shrugged, "hey that part caught me off guard too, but hey the world works in mysterious ways." After he said that he got really serious before narrowing his eyes at me, "but I swear to god if you ever try to throw yourself off a cliff again I will kill you myself."

"I promise I won't do it again," I smile.

"Yeah you promised the last time too," Levi rolled his eyes before leaning over and placing a quick kiss on my cheek.

I let go of Levi's pencil and he went back to paying attention to Hanji. So I went back to my lewd thoughts of Levi moaning under me. Levi nudged me with his elbow before whispering, "you better stop that."

"Or what."

Levi just smiled. "Well that scene your imagining try that, but flip the roles so that you're on the bottom."

Eren's thoughts flipped the rolls and he turned to Levi and said.

So I did just that I flipped the roles so that Levi was topping me and causing me to moan with so much pleasure. "Promise?" with a purr in my voice.

"Fine, after class, we are heading straight to our dorm and I'll make you eat those words."

"Please do," I winked and him and he got really flustered.

Jean just turned around before whispering, "damn guys in class," before yell whispering, "get some."

I tried to stop myself from laughing but then Marco nudged him really hard with his elbow before whispering, "mind your own business." Well, shit those two know we're getting laid later. I thought to Levi who just shook his head in embarrassment.

"Well, they are making it my business they are sitting directly behind me I just want to know when to duck since I'm in the splash zone," Jean said and Marco looked so mortified that he just turned back around defeated. Levi and I couldn't help but die laughing. We didn't care that everyone was looking at us confused it was worth it.
