"Can we watch that other show with the little boy?" you asked. Levi rolled his eyes and got up to fix himself something in the kitchen.

"Whatever you want brat," he responded. Levi was exhausted. Having you in the house was only an addition to his misery at the moment.

Homework. It's cruel. A torture device that teachers use to get kids to shut up. At least according to Mr. Smith. But when you think about it, it makes complaining a routine. Complaining isn't exactly soft on the ears. At least not for teachers.

Levi didn't understand how you were already finished with your homework. It was either you did the majority of it in class, or you were somehow able to find the answers.

Besides homework, there was you. The same 'you' that didn't know how to clean up after themselves to save their life. Levi found your school supplies lying somewhere on his bed beside a plate of cookies that you had ditched earlier on. This earned you a string of curses to escape Levi's mouth.

"I think the show is called Touch!" called a long haired brunette with glasses.

Oh right. How could he forget? Shitty Glasses tagged along as well, much to Levi's dismay.

"Oh right!" you shot back. Levi huffed and gave up on his food. He suddenly didn't feel like eating. Was this what it felt like to have sisters? Not saying that he'd ever look at the two brats and think of them as sisters. That would be a totally different view of what Levi really felt about the two idiots.

He decided to drop the whole subject. He didn't want to think about it at all. Hange wasn't worth his thoughts. But were you?

Levi mentally slapped himself for going to the extents as to disobeying his own command. Maybe the homework was getting to him. He was tired and didn't have the luxury to sit and think about the people around him all day.

Levi glanced over at you. You lay lazily on the couch with the TV remote in your hand. Hange sat next to you; barely even paying attention to the show that was on. She just tapped away on her phone. Levi picked up his books, and headed for his room. He made a mental note to lock the door behind him. Anything bad can happen with both you and Hange in his house. Locking his door was the most he could do to prevent himself from becoming a victim of their shenanigans.

"Where are you going?" you called out, prying your eyes off the TV screen. Levi just looked ahead and made it to the top of the stairs.

"Away from you idiots," he replied before shutting his door. You sighed. You seemed to have gotten bored of the show you were watching. You couldn't make fun of Levi because he left for his room. Even if you could make fun of him, he would find a way to throw you out the window.

Hange was probably on her phone posting theories on her blog about man-eating spiders, or spamming somebody's Twitter. She did that a lot.

You weren't into those things at the moment. Even if you were, you'd be bored of it within two seconds. You picked up your phone and keys from a nearby coffee table. Slinging your bag over your shoulder, you headed for the front door.

"Where are you going?" Hange asked, not even looking up from her phone. You wondered how she was still able to maintain a good focus on an ongoing conversation while doing whatever she did on her phone. But you didn't stress yourself over it. With Hange, expect the unexpected.

"Oh. I don't know. Probably home. Can you tell Levi that I'm leaving?" you asked. Hange shook her head.

"Nope! I might leave as well," she replied as she grabbed her bag. Her eyes found their way back to her phone screen as miraculously walked to the doorway without bumping into anything. You couldn't do that to save your life. You knew you'd just immediately run into a wall.

"Bye!" Hange called, before slamming the door shut. You sighed and reached for your phone in your back pocket, when you remembered that you'd left it in Levi's room.

"Gosh damn it," you cursed as you made your way up the stairs. Once you got to Levi's door, you knocked.

"Hello? Levi, I'm leaving and I need my phone," you called. You tried again when you heard no response.

"Look, I know you're probably annoyed with me for making a really big mess today. I'm sorry, it won't happen again. That is, if you change the locks to your house and make sure Hange doesn't come over."

Silence.

"Ugh! I'm gonna break down this door!" you exclaimed as you struggled to open the door, with no prevail. You then got an idea.

"Oh right!" you muttered. You reached inside your bag for a key Hange had given you. She made sure to give you a copy of every key to every door in Levi's house.

How?

As said before, expect the unexpected.

Once you got the door to unlock, your eyes softened at the sight. Levi's head rested in his arms, that lay limp on his desk. Beside him was a neat pile of papers. Homework. You sighed. He probably had a lot on his plate today.

Levi's earphones were playing music at a neutral volume. You slowly took one out of his left ear and put it to yours.

Wish we could turn back time, to the good old days. When our mamma sang us to sleep, but now we're stressed out.

You rolled your eyes. "How ironic," you uttered. You quickly scanned the room for your phone.

"There it is," said as you quickly took your phone in one hand. Just as you were about to head out, you heard a husky voice call out after you.

"Where are you going?" Levi asked. You quickly spun around, surprised to see that he was awake.

"Oh! Hey! Um, I was just about to go home and I remembered that I had left my phone here," you responded (almost too quickly). Levi blinked.

"How the hell did you get into my room?" Levi questioned. You sweat dropped. If Levi found out it was Hange, he'd definitely change all the lock inside and outside of the house. You didn't want that to happen.

"Um..." you murmured, trying to find an excuse. You finally gave up and shrugged your shoulders. Levi rolled his eyes.

"Tch'. Whatever," he concluded before running his hands through his hair. He sighed as he looked at the left over homework he had to finish. You turned back to exit his room, when Levi stopped you.

"Stay," he demanded. You raised a brow.

"What?" Levi rolled his eyes.

"Tch', are you deaf?" he asked. You blinked before shaking your head and dropping your bag beside the closet nearby. You closed the door before jumping onto Levi's bad, earning a grunt from him. You chose to ignore it. Once settled, you turned on your phone. You were met with a bunch of notifications (95% of them from Hange) and missed calls.

"Who the heck called me?" you asked yourself. The name read 'unknown'. Levi turned to you.

"I need your homework," he stated flatly. Levi didn't have the time solve each question. All he wanted to do was sleep without a care in the world.

"It's in my bag," you replied as you shut down your phone. You made sure to block whatever number was trying to call you. There was nothing to worry about.


"I'm sleeping in my bed by the way," Levi said once he finished his homework. When Levi didn't hear a reply, he turned to see you, fast asleep. He rolled his eyes.

"You are so annoying..." he muttered.
