(F/n)'s POV

"I.." 'Why won't this bitch answer a God damn question?' "Gotta go!" She shouted, shoving me off of her which caught me off guard.

"You get back here you bitch! You get back here you bitch! YOU GET BACK HERE YOU BITCH!" (Markiplier?) I shouted, getting up and chasing her.

She ran outside to the stables, getting on her horse. "Oh no you don't!" I yanked her off the horse like those men did to me back in wall Rose.

"What did you do to Levi?! And I swear to God if you don't tell me, I will rip out your heart and shove it down your throat!" 'I think I went a little too far..'

"Ok, ok! I'll tell you!" She started to cry like the little baby she is. I was clenching on to her shirt collar with my fist. "Ms. Kataoka wanted me to get close to him back on New Years just so I could poison him!" She cried.

"Why would she want him poisoned?" I held her collar tighter. "I don't know! She just wanted me to do it, so I did for the money!" She cried harder.

"Is that the whole reason why you joined the scouts?" She nodded, wiping the tears away. "So I'm guessing you met her before graduation then based your regiment off of a crazy scientist you met who asked you for a favor?"

She nodded again, and I lightened my grasp on her shirt. "Get out of my face, and never get near Levi or me again! If I catch you obeying another assassination from Ms. Kataoka, that will be the end of you!" I threw her into a pile of hay behind us.

I left her there, going back inside to check on Levi. I saw Hanji still in his room, and making sure he was alright. "How's Levi doing?" I asked, sitting on the edge of his bed next to her.

"Not so good, this syringe in his arm had a poison in it." She showed it to me. "Yeah, Quinn told me she was being paid to do this." I sighed.

"What?!" She gasped, putting the syringe back down. "Yup. Some crazy shit's happening at the Survey Corps." I chuckled.

"Thankfully the poison didn't get too far. It only spread throughout his arm and nowhere else." She looked down at a sleeping Levi again.

"Is there anything you can do to remove it?" I looked at her, a little worried if she wasn't able to treat it. "I do have one method.."

>>>Time skip>>>

I got all of the chores done on the list for Levi, and I managed to get in some training today. Right now I was in the mess hall making some soup for Levi's dinner.

I also made him another cup of black tea to go along with the soup. I walked back to Levi's room, seeing him awake now. "Evening, sleeping beauty." I chuckled.

"Shut up, brat." He slightly smirked. "How are you feeling?" I asked him, setting the bowl of soup and cup of tea down on the nightstand beside his bed.

Hanji did her little 'method' for removing the poison, and let's just say it was a long and complicated process. "I feel the same." His scratchy voice answered.

"I brought you dinner." I handed him his tea cup. "Thanks." He sighed, sipping from the cup. "What was all that shouting from earlier?" He set the tea cup back down.

"Oh..just some Quinn drama." I rolled my eye. "Oh." He replied. "Do you need anything else before I go eat dinner?" I asked Levi.

He nodded, grabbing my shirt collar and pulling me down to his face. Soon enough his soft lips were just barely on mine. "You know I love you, and only you." He whispered against my lips.

I giggled, and Levi slowly kissed me. He let go of my shirt, bringing his hand to the back of my neck and pulling me closer, deepening the kiss.

We both parted for air. "I'd love to stay and continue this, but you're sick. And I better go eat dinner before Sasha eats it all." I waved bye, walking down to the mess hall.

*After Dinner*

I saw Quinn get up from her table, about to exit the mess hall. I quickly stood up and pulled her arm back, making her stop.

I guess her self defense reflexes kicked in, because she smacked my face, which got scratched a little by her nails. "Uh..s-sorry.." She nervously laughed, rubbing the back of her neck.

"Tch. Where are you going?" I let go of her arm. "B-back to my room." She quietly answered. I nodded, watching her leave the mess hall quickly.

She actually told the truth on where she was going, she took a right when she left the mess hall. To go to Levi's office/bedroom, you would have to go left.

I sighed, walking down the hall and going back to Levi's room.

Levi's POV

'This stupid cold, why won't it go away?!' I heard (f/n) enter the room. I looked up at her and saw some scratches on her cheek.

My eyes widened when she got closer to me. 'Why are there scratches (f/c)?' "Tch. What happened to your face?" I sat up from bed.

She furrowed her eyebrows, walking into my bathroom to see her reflection.

(F/n)'s POV

My eye widened when I saw my face. There were three scratch marks on my cheek from Quinn, except they were..(f/c)?

I turned on the faucet and splashed some water on my face. The (f/c) color faded a little, but it still stayed on my skin. I shrugged, walking back out to Levi.

"More Quinn drama, I don't know why they were (f/c) though." I sighed, sitting on the edge of his bed. Levi came over to me, slowly sliding his fingers down my cheek with the scratches on it.

"They're not wiping away.." He mumbled. "I know, I tried washing it but nothing happened." I replied.

*That Night*

3rd Person POV

(F/n) fell asleep on Levi's bed, which made Levi blush a LOT. He was starting to feel a little better now, from the time (f/n) took off to help him get well again.

Levi was still awake, gingerly caressing her cheek with the scratches. (F/n) was resting peacefully, next to Levi.

Levi's POV

Right when I was about to fall asleep, I felt (f/n) shift in place. I opened my eyes again and saw her hands around her neck. "What are you doing?" My eyes widened, while I was sitting up.

"....I-I............c-can't....breathe!" She gasped for air, 'Why can't she breathe?!'

3rd Person POV

*Wall Rose Dungeons*

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to poison her!" Quinn was on her knees, begging Rani for forgiveness. "I gave you ONE job, and that was to kill Levi! Now you go off and almost kill my test subject?! If that poison gets any further into her system, she could die sooner!" Rani ranted.

"I know, I'm so so sorry! Please forgive me!" Quinn shouted. "If she doesn't die, I'll reward you with the pay I promised. But, if she does die..I'll probably kill you." Rani crossed her arms.

"How did she get poisoned?" Rani leaned against a wall in her cellar. "She grabbed me, so my instincts were to smack her. I guess I scratched her face a little, and some skin came off. I guess some poison was still on my hand from when I tried to kill Levi.." Quinn answered.

"You idiot! If some skin came off of her, that means the poison got inside of her body! This poison is only effective when it enters the body, if it touches your skin nothing happens. That's why you're fine!" Rani was in a rage.

"Please, I can try to remove the poison! All I need is time and for her to trust me!" Quinn pleaded. "Fine, I'll give you one week. No more than that." Rani sighed.

*Back at Scouts' HQ*

Levi's POV

(F/n) was finally able to breath again after a few minutes. I insisted on taking her to Hanji but she said she was fine. It was three in the morning, and she fell back asleep about an hour ago.

I noticed I was starting to feel better, so I got up to get ready. 'Might as well finish all of the paperwork eyebrows gave me.'
