The Beginning of the End ☠ •ereri AU-apocalypse• (boyxboy)

TBOTE 7 ☠

The next morning Eren woke up pretending nothing happened. It hurt a lot to do it, but he knew he had no choice. He thought Levi didn't like him.

Levi actually did like the boy, but going too far into a relationship wasn't really his thing.

Eren stood up and looked at Mikasa, completely ignoring Levi. "Ready to go?" He asked.

Mikasa dusted her clothes off and nodded, raising an eyebrow at how Eren completely ignored Levi.

"Yeah, let's head out. We should try walking in the opposite direction." Mikasa said and picked up her blades.

"Alright. Let's go." Eren started walking and sighed. Mikasa led the way and Eren followed close behind.

Levi was a few feet away and walked behind them.

Mikasa nudged Eren and mouthed. "What happened between you and Levi?" She asked, easily able to tell something wasn't right.

Eren shook his head and frowned. "Nothing." He mumbled and walked ahead of Mikasa.

Mikasa looked back at Levi and glared at him. "What did you do?!" She whispered.

Levi knew why Eren was upset but he really wasn't up for telling Mikasa. He shrugged. "No idea." He whispered back and shoved his hands in his pockets.

Mikasa rolled her eyes and ran to catch up with Eren.

Eren was still hurting, he regretted saying those words that caused Levi to reject him so fast.

He was embarrassed, upset, and angry.

How did he ever think Levi could like him back?

Eren suddenly noticed something. He ran up to the side up the building and put his hand on the dry infected blood, spelling out A.A.

"It's Armin!" Eren yelled. "Armin Arlert. He made this for us. We need to go this way!"

In one quick movement Eren was already running towards the direction the wall faced. "Armin!" He yelled.

"He's an idiot." Levi grumbled as he caught up to Mikasa. "He probably attracted every infected thing in this area."

Mikasa nodded in agreement and ran up behind Eren. She covered his mouth with her hand. "Shh.."

Eren squirmed and pushed her arm away. "Mikasa stop! Can't you see we're so close to finding the group?"

"Are you trying to get us killed before we even find them?" Mikasa whispered and turned when she heard a twig snap in the woods beside the road.

She held her blades up and was ready to kill.

Armin came running out and practically tackled Mikasa and Eren to the ground in a hug.

"Hey guys! I see you saw my sign." He giggled and stood up with them.

Erwin and Hanji came out close behind with the rest of the group.

"Oh finally." Levi grumbled and crossed his arms.

"I thought you were dead Eren, I'm so happy to see you." Armin smiled widely and hugged his best friend tightly.

Levi felt a pang of jealously, he couldn't believe it himself when he realized it.

"Let's all make a camp." Hanji said and hummed. "I'd like to check up on Eren and see what we'll do next."

Everyone agreed and started setting up tents in the woods.

"So, Armin and Eren. You'll be sharing a tent. Mikasa, you can stay with me. Levi, as always, you get your own tent. Erwin allowed it." Hanji sighed.

Mikasa shrugged and nodded and Eren and Armin walked over to their tent.

"Long day?" Armin asked as he watched Eren dive into the blankets on the ground.

"Yeah, really long." Eren mumbled and frowned.

"What happened? I could tell there was some tension between you and Levi."

Eren's breath hitched and he looked away. "I almost hooked up with him last night." He said under his breath.

"What? Speak louder I can't hear you."

"I almost hooked up with him!" Eren said loudly and blushed. "But he rejected me when I said I liked him."

Levi was walking by the tent when he heard Eren's words.
He turned towards the tent and raised an eyebrow. He leaned closer and listened in.

"Oh I'm sorry Eren." Armin frowned.

"I really did like him, but he doesn't feel the same. I'll move on." Eren shrugged.

"I guess it'd be better to not get involved anyways Eren. I wouldn't want to see you hurt." Armin smiled lightly.

"Thanks Armin." Eren blushed lightly at his best friend's words. "I guess he doesn't know what he's missing." Armin added with a flirty smile.

Levi rolled his eyes and listened closer.

"I mean, if Levi doesn't come along you always have other people." Armin watched Eren closely.

"Other people?" Eren raised an eyebrow, not catching Armin's drift at all.

Armin laughed quietly and Levi cursed under his breath. He looked over to see Hanji starting to make some food. He backed up a bit and started walking normally so they could hear him coming. He tapped the tent lightly. "Oi, Hanji wanted me to tell you that the food is almost ready." Levi said, wanting to interrupt whatever they were doing.

"Okay thanks." Armin called out and crawled out of the tent with Eren. Armin gave Levi a nod as he walked past and Eren just ignored him.

Levi raised eyebrow and grabbed Eren's wrist, turning him.

"My tent, tonight." Levi mumbled and let go of Eren's wrist.

Eren stared at him with a pained expression as he turned as caught up to Armin.

"Does Mikasa know?" Armin asked as they sat at a table that was set up.

Eren quickly shook his head. "She'd kill me and Levi. I'm only fifteen..Levi's what? Thirty? It's very illegal."

Armin sighed. "Eren, there are no more laws anymore. We're in the apocalypse."

Eren shook his head and looked down. "It just doesn't feel right."

"What doesn't feel right?" Erwin asked as he sat across from the two.

"Nothing." Eren mumbled and looked down.

Erwin raised an eyebrow and sighed quietly. He watched Eren, wanting to know why he looked so down.

Levi sat at another table, not wanting to get too close.

The group all ate and went to their tents for a rest. Armin and Eren lied in their tent talking and laughing.

Levi's words from earlier suddenly hit him. "I have to pee. I'll be back." He stepped out of the tent to see it was already nightfall. Mikasa sat on first watch, her back was to Eren.

Eren quickly ran to Levi's tent and poked his head in. "Levi..?" He mumbled.

Levi turned from digging through his bag and looked at Eren. "Hmm you actually came."
