Soulmate

First Encounter

Eren shivered lightly, the thin jacket he was wearing barely doing anything against the gusts of wind. The male stared up at the sky, dark yet soft clouds hanging limply in the air, waiting to pour their load of rain over Trost. He shoved his hands into his pockets, the tips of his fingers dusted pink and almost numb. "Fuck this weather," Eren mumbled to the sky, his brown locks of hair constantly being pushed into his line of vision. Why did he decide to walk to school? Mikasa offered to drive him after all. The brunette strolled into the school yard and a few people said their greeting to him. He tried his best to be polite to them, despite his newfound shitty mood.

With his face buried in his scarf, a raven-haired male stood at his locker, easily slipping his shoes on. He wasn't the popular type like Eren was. In fact, everyone disliked him or hated him. No one ever talked to him and he never tried talking to them. Levi's life as a school outcast was hard. People would stare at his blank and expressionless face as he walked to each of his classes, whispering to each other and giggling. Of course he tried ignoring them, but it was difficult.

Eren passed all the irritating people that greeted him and made his way to his locker, thankfully without any interruptions. He noticed the raven haired male in the corner of his eye whilst putting his combination in. He was spinning the lock around 360° several times before he noticed that he was distracted and definitely staring at the male. He looked quickly away with a blush, desperately hoping Levi didn't notice. The brunette had to redo his code to gain access to his locker, keeping his gaze deep in the old locker to hide his embarrassment. God, why was he so adorable?

Levi glanced at him as he stuffed his face in his locker before slinging his bag over his shoulder, closing his locker and heading to class. 'What was up with him' he shook his head as he thought to himself, reaching his first period class and placing himself in the back of the room next to the window. He stared intently at the cloudy sky until class begun.

Eren waited until the shorter male had left before sighing heavily with exasperation. He put all his shit away and pulled out his binders. The brunette slowly made his way into the same classroom as the ravenette. What pissed Eren off the most was is that he had every class with the male, fueling his awkwardness. He sat in the back row was well, but on the opposite side of the class, the class began right when he sat. He stole a few glances at the other male but kept his eyes on his desk.

Levi didn't redirect his gaze to the teacher while he was instructing. He just listened. He didn't need notes because he had such a good memory, which everyone called him a freak for. He didn't even turn his head when he answered. He just knew them. The only time he redirected his gaze, was to check the time.

Upon noticing Levi didn't seem to ever keep his gaze off ever, the brunette found it safe to stare upon him. The brunette admittedly admired him, finding him adorable yet attractive in every single way. "Jaeger!" The teacher suddenly snapped out, and he stumbled up with a squeak of his chair "Y..yes?" The teacher scowled, "Pay attention in class you dimwit." He mumbled a 'yes mam' before sitting with a wild blush.

For once, Levi directed his gaze right towards Eren. His cold looking eyes stared at the brunette who's face had a dark shade of pink on his cheeks. 'Tch- popular kids' he thought to himself once more, looking back out window. The bell rang, and he calmly got up and left to his next class. Not a single word spoken. Just eyes on him and whispering coming from every corner.

Eren got up slowly as well, pulling his binders close to himself. He lingered for a bit but left then classroom swiftly, trailing after the male silently. He made sure to keep distance, his head empty as he stared ahead at the brunette. He bit into his bottom lip, wanting desperately to interact with him. Eren couldn't think of a single thing to say, he just wanted to hear the ravenette talk honestly.
