He looks at Levi, his eyes shining wet, but within seconds they close as he yawns slightly.
    "Levi? I'm alright I just had a weird dream." He rubs his eye noticing the wetness coming from them.
    "Oh? Strange, maybe the dream felt too real." He stretches slightly and strokes Levi's worried face while he smiles softly at him.
    "Don't worry I'm ok. It's just. I dreamt that I was a little boy hiding in this backyard with arms full of books. I tried my best to hide them from a woman that kept screaming. She repeatedly screamed 'It's all your fault. If you would have done what he told you. You killed him'. "Erwin shudders and sniffles slightly, but now he is sure it was just a dream. He closes his eyes again and takes a few deep breaths until they stop shaking. For some odd reason this dream shakes him to the bone.
   " it's just a dream. Are you finished? I could have helped you." he looks at Levi again not being too remember more of the dream, but he glances to the overgrown bushes a few feet away from them to his right. Something is there, but maybe not. It was just a dream after all right?
   " Where do we got the documents? I want to look something up."

It was starting to get dark and Levi stood up in front of him. He didn't exactly know a lot about Erwin's past. It was something not only Erwin knew. But Levi too wasn't without any secrets. He had only told Erwin half the story and that was just a few months ago when he was questioned about Kenny Ackerman. So he didn't feel offended when Erwin didn't tell him about his past. He could tell Erwin if what he remembered was true or not, so the man would have to keep wondering until he got his memories back.

"It's getting late. Let's go inside"
He offered Erwin a friendly hand.
"Documents? As in a study room? I think I found some cases with documents in them"
He wasn't quite sure what Erwin desired to do, but he was willing to help the best he could. He cocked his head towards the house to signal Erwin they should head back.
"Come on, I'll show you."
He smiled and headed back to the house in peace.
"I was expecting your praise like always."
He said with a cocky tone.

He took him to the study room and leaned against the door,
"The papers are all in here. I don't really know what they are. Doesn't even look like your handwriting."
He said as he looked at Erwin calmly.
