The world against the two of us (Levi Ackerman X OC)

chapter 7

3rd Persons Pov

The sun shone through a small gap in the curtains in Juliets room, training starts in half an hour and she was still sleeping. Eren, who was fully dressed and just had his breakfast, in his right hand he held a plate of food that he had made for Juliet for her breakfast. The boy knocked on the door several times, with there being no answer he opened the door and walked in. This was really unusual for him, Juliet was always the first awake.

The boy places the plate on the girls desk and walks over to her bed. He must admit, he had developed a small crush on this girl and to see her sleeping peacefully made his heart leap.

"Juliet, you need to wake up now" Eren says softly as he shakes the girl

She slowly opens her eyes and sits up.

"Sorry, I should've woken up earlier" Juliet says, looking at the clock

"Its fine, I've left you some breakfast on your desk, I'll wait outside here then" Eren says with a smile and leaves the room

It takes Juliet ten minutes to get ready and eat her toast. She meets Eren outside her bedroom and puts her plate in the kitchen before heading onto the training field. They pass the squad training and go to a complete different area of the field, where Hangi was cloud gazing.

"Okay Eren, first we will spar so I can see where you're lacking, okay? I'll make sure to hold back though, don't want you breaking any bones, do we?" Juliet says and stands opposite Eren.

Eren nods and charges straight for Juliet with his fist, Juliet steps aside so Eren misses and nearly falls over. Juliet goes to hit his stomach, which he wasn't quick enough to dodge. Thankfully, Juliet realised this and stopped her fist as it was about to make contact. Eren tries to trip her up but his attack missed and Juliet lands a soft punch on his arm. Eren goes to punch her but he doesn't use as much power as he should have.

"Okay, we can stop now." Juliet says and Eren stands still
"Im useless" He says sadly

"You need improvement for sure, but you didn't do as bad as I thought you would. Lets discuss your weak points" Juliet says and sits down, Eren then does the same

"Okay, first of all when you ran into me at first you were so heavy footed that when I dodged you nearly lost your balance, lets work on that first." Juliet starts "You need to be light footed and have less power in it so if your opponent does dodge, you can swing to whichever side they moved and still hit them"

"O-okay" Eren says, taking it in

"Let's go through that slowly," Juliet says and stands up

"Slowly?" Eren questions as he stands up himself

"Come at me slowly and then when you have more control we'll speed it up" Juliet explains and stands opposite Eren
Eren does as he did before but this time very slowly and Juliet talks him through it.

"Okay, when I dodge, pivot on the ankle that's furthest away, make sure you don't turn too powerfully or you'll lose control" Juliet says as Eren nears her

Eren manages the move when hes doing it slow and it takes about half an hour for him to do it right in proper speed.

"Okay, so... when I went to punch your stomach I expected you to stop me but you weren't quick enough. We'll do it slow at first like last time. I want you to grab my fist, and pull it back towards me and trip me up, you can do that to any punch, got it?" Juliet says

"Yeah, but I don't want to hurt you when I trip you up" Eren says guiltily

"Its fine. I can handle falling down, Eren. We'll try it with stomach a few times but then I'll go to different areas" Juliet says
