____________Your POV_____________
You groaned as you opened your eyes, causing bright light to flood your vision, before dimming down to the point where you can see the ceiling above you.
You blinked a few times, before turning your head to the side, where you were met with a glare so fierce it would scare off the devil himself.
"With a face like that, I must be in hell, right?" You say, as you turned your head, so you were once again, staring at the ceiling.
"Tch, flattery will get you nowhere, (F/N)" the familiar monotonous voice, hisses.
"So, what are you so pissed off about, Levi?" You questioned, as you sat up, wincing a bit at the sudden pounding in the back if your skull.
"Tch, lay down brat." Levi growls, as he pushes you back down.
"I'm fine, like I keep telling you, I've suffered worse." You say, as you try and keep yourself in a sitting position, despite Levi's efforts to keep you down.
"Tch, what the fuck is up with everyone from your time." Levi grumbles, as he gives up in trying to make you lay back down.
"Habit." Was your short answer.
Levi only stared at you, his glare sharpening even more.
"I keep telling you, the weak die, we must never show weakness." You say emotionlessly, as you stare down at your hands.
"Tch, you not in your time period, dumbass." You hear Levi finally say, causing you to snap your gaze up.
"What?" You ask, as your eyebrows furrow.
"I said, 'your no longer in your time period, dumbass', don't make me repeat myself." Levi grumbles.
"No, I heard what you said, but why say it?" You ask.
"Are you really that stupid?" Levi growls out.
"No, I'm not. I just don't understand what you mean when you said what you said." You say back.
"Tch, what I mean is, you not in you time period, you can show weakness, you can cry, laugh, and enjoy the people around you." Levi says monotonously, as he crosses his arms.
You eyes widen a bit, before your head snaps back down, so your looking at the hands that rest in your lap.
____________Levi's POV____________
I see (F/N) snap her gaze towards her hands that lay in her lap, her hair hiding her eyes, as she says, "How is everyone?"
"Tch, they're fine, Dante just suffered from a broken ankle, but other then that, everyone else from my squad and yours are fine." I sigh out, as I run a hand through my hair.
"I see, that's good. I made up for something, for once in my life." (F/N) mumbles to herself, but I catch it.
"What the hell are you say-" I cut myself off, when I realize what she meant.
"You tried sacrificing yourself so that everyone else could live, you didn't want what happened to your old squad to repeat itself, right?" I ask, and (F/N) nods her head, still refusing to look at me.
"Levi, could you leave for a few minutes, I need time to myself." (F/N) mumbles out.
"I'm not moving." I hiss, as I sit down in the chair next to (F/N)'s bed.
I see (F/N) grit her teeth together, before quickly throwing the blankets off of her, and turning around, so that her back faces me.
I raise an eyebrow at the sudden action.
"What's wrong with you?" I ask emotionlessly, but I get no response.
"Tch, dammit brat, just tell me what's wrong." I hiss, but all (F/N) does is shake her head 'no' quickly, as she still has her back facing me.
Becoming impatient, I stand up from the chair.
"If you do what I think your doing, I'll punch you." (F/N) threatens, as her back still faces me.
All I do is click my tongue in annoyance, before stomping over towards (F/N).
"I said leave me alone dammit!" She shouts, almost desperately, but I ignore it, as I grab onto her shoulder, before turning her around.
My eyes widen a bit, as I see the sight before me.
(F/N) (L/N), the woman who has the strenght to take down any one or thing that stands in her way, was crying.
She frantically scrubs her eyes with her hands, as she says, "Its not what you think, I just have something in my eye, that's all."
I quickly regain my composure, before thinking of a way to calm the brat down.
'Shit, I'm not a people person!' I mentally scold myself, but then an idea comes to mind.
I slowly lean in, before wrapping my arms around her.
I feel her stiffen, as she says, "What the hell are you doing?"
"I'm fucking hugging you, feel grateful brat, I don't usually do this for people." I hiss.
"A hug?" (F/N) questions, as if this is the first time hearing the word.
"So, the is what a hug....feels like?" (F/N) mutters quietly, almost to the point where I couldn't hear it, but I still manage to catch it.
I pull away, as I grumble out, "Never mind, its a stupid idea."
But, that was when I was pulled down by a strong force.
I feel arms wrap around me, as (F/N) buries her face into my shoulder, as her own shoulders begin to shake.
"Thank goodness." I hear (F/N) mutter, causing me to look down at her form.
"Thank goodness, I made it time. I finally did something right. I managed to save lives, I didn't have to kill anyone. I'm glad, I'm so fucking glad." She cries out, my shoulder beginning to feel a bit damp from her tears, but I don't do anything, instead, I gently place my hand on top of her head, her body becoming rigid, before relaxing, as I pet her hair.
"Thank you, Levi." She mutters, almost inaudibly, into my shoulder.
"Tch, just don't tell anyone, crybaby." I tease.
I feel something hard hit my chest, causing me to wince.
"Did you just hit me?" I ask.
"Maybe." (F/N) replied, face still buried in the crook of my neck.
I went to get up, but (F/N) only tightened her hold on me.
"Tch, let go, brat. We still need to eat, dinner's almost about done." I hiss.
"Just...a little while longer, please." She says, as she holds onto me tighter, as if afraid to let go.
I let out a sigh of defeat, before staying in my position.
"Just for a few more minutes, then I'll go get our dinner." I mutter, as I turn my head to the side, to hide the almost noticable blush on my cheeks.
"Thank you, Levi. For everything." I hear (F/N) mutter, her face still buried in my shoulder.
I sigh as I rub her head, as I say "Tch, don't mention it, brat."
She only nods her head, before we remained in that position for a while longer.
After about five more minutes, (F/N) finally lets go.
"Tch, about time." I say.
I see (F/N)'s eyes widen a bit, before she quickly snaps her head to the side, as she says, "Yeah, whatever."
I was about to say something back, but I stop myself, when I see that (F/N)'s cheeks are dyed a red color.
I bit back a smirk, as I say, "Yeah, yeah, I'm going to go get our dinner."
But, before I exited out of the room, I turn my head and asked, "Was that the first time someone hugged you?"
She seemed taken aback by the question, before slowly nodding her head.
I don't say anything else, as I left the room.
As I went to the mess hall, I see (F/N)'s squad and my squad sitting at the table, when they saw me, (F/N)'s squad was already in front of me, pounding me with questions.
"Tch, she's fine. Now, if you don't fucking mind, can I grab the damn food." I hiss, and everyone backs off.
I grab two plates of food, before making my way back to the infirmary, which currently held (F/N).
Once back, I hand (F/N) her plate, as I sat down and began to eat.
During that time frame, (F/N) and I began to talk about our different time periods.
(F/N) also explained in great detail about some of the things her old squad would do, and I would give out some information about my past as well, not much though, just small bits and pieces.
After a few more minutes, I began to notice that it was getting quite late in the night, so I bid a goodnight, as I took the trays back to the kitchen and cleaned them, before putting them away, and heading to my office/bedroom for the night.
