The Sound of You - Ereri - (Boyxboy)

Chapter 9: Eren's Big Break

        EREN'S POV

        "LEVI! LEVI LEVI LEVI LEVI!"

        I yelled excitedly, as I flew down the hallways of the dorm. I couldn't stop the excitement pouring out of me, and I couldn't resist the smile that was plastered on my face. Not even as I tried to turn a corner too fast and skidded into the wall. I barely saved myself from falling as I continued to run down the halls as fast as my legs would go, and yell exasperatedly as loud as my shaking voice would get.

        I paused, wincing slightly once I had heard what had been probably the third 'SHUT THE HELL UP' that had been yelled at me since I entered the building. It probably didn't help that it was only around 7:30 on a Saturday morning.

        Once I got the the familiar door of our dorm- familiar meaning it looked exactly like every other door in the dorm room- I resumed my buoyant vocalizations, struggling as my shaking hands struggled with the task of unlocking the door.

        Once I had conquered the burden of getting through the door, my eyes shot around the room exhilaratedly, closing in on my target who was standing by his bed.

     "Levi, guess what, guess what, guess whaaat!" I cried, launching from the doorway, and involuntarily slamming the door behind me.

        I slammed right into him in what would have been a hug, were I not charging at him, and what ended up with us falling back onto his bed, him on his back, and me hovering over him, my face beaming.

        "Today is the best day of my life! You remember helping me rehearse for auditions for Les Miserables? Well I-"

        "I thought you were auditioning for Fiddler on-"

        "No, I auditioned with a song from that, but I auditioned for Les Mis. Anywho, do me a favor and shut up. I just got back from the theatre where I talked to the casting directors, and guess what!"

        "You got the-"

        "I got the part, Levi! I got the part!" I smiled even wider- if that were possible- as I stared down at him. My face was aching, and my heart was beating erratically.

        "Well, congratulations you little shit, you got a part in the big bad school play," he responded, finally being able to get a full sentence out.

        I rolled my eyes, choosing to remain optimistic. I squealed again happily, still feeling euphoria from the great news I received that morning.

        After a few moments, Levi cleared his throat, and I suddenly became aware of the fact that I was on top of him. On top of his bed. Which he had probably just gotten out of when he heard me, seeing as it wasn't made. And he didn't yet have a shirt on.

        I felt my face flush beat red, mumbling out an embarrassed apology, and quickly scrambling to get off of him.

        After I had backed away a bit from the bed, and he had stood up and stretched a bit (and I totally did not stare at his smooth, pale skin, or the way his muscles moved when he stretched...) I replaced my gleeful smile, despite my face still feeling hot, and my heart beating with a new vigor.

        He was smirking at me, which definitely did not calm my heart any, and I frowned inwardly when he reached into his nightstand drawer and pulled out a shirt before putting it on.

        "And you, of course, being my loving, supportive friend are going to come to the very first showing, and give me all your support and praise!" I said, returning his smirk.
