Author's Note: I recently have become obsessed with AOT, and I just couldn't help but write something about them. I don't own any of the characters, please review and let us know what you think!

Waking up late

A small itch on the top of his head is what awoke him from his wondrous rest; Eren slowly reached up and itched his head as he used his other hand to pat the other side of the bed. Eren's eyes widened when he realized that no one was in the bed beside him. Eren sat up in his bed and looked around the room quickly realizing there wasn't even an indication that anyone had been in the cellar will him. The dungeon, itself, was always black whether it be the middle of the day or midnight so he couldn't tell either way. Eren shrugged and figured that corporal simply left to go to the bathroom. Eren let out a small yawn and slowly laid back down in his bed. Once Eren was all tucked in and snuggling with his pillow, it hit him like a brick; he had overslept.

Eren's eyes shot open and he went to jump out of his bed, but then a sharp pain from his backside radiated through his body and he fell to the floor. He let out a frustrated groan as he began to curse the shorter man.

"I wish I could show him what it feels like to be drilled all day and then again all night," Eren mumbled as he rubbed his butt trying to relieve some of the pain.

With a very loud groan, Eren slowly pushed himself off of the ground and began to rush around the room trying to put his uniform on as quickly as possible. Eren had to slow down for a moment when he was buttoning up his shirt because the first two times he tried to in a rush he messed it up in someway. Eren carefully pulled the pants over his shaking legs and sighed in relief when the pants were finally over his ass and hung nicely on his hips. He dreaded putting on his straps as they would put pressure against all of the places that were already sore. He quickly got the pain over with and strapped up his legs and hooked them around his feet. Letting out a hiss of pain Eren sat back down on his bed; trying to ignore the throbbing pain in his backside, he quickly put on his boots.

He jumped off his bed and once again the pain that was radiating in his hips caused him to stumble and almost fall. There was no way he was going to go throughout training today without someone noticing. He let out a sigh as he grabbed his jacket and tried to make a beeline for the door. Eren hoped that no one realized that he was late and that he could just slide into training without bringing suspicion to himself. He began making his plan as he tried to attach his 3D maneuver gear to himself as he made his way throughout through a side door as he was hoping to sneak into his place.

Eren followed the wall hoping to hide behind all of the bushes till he could see what his companions were doing. When they fell into his line of sight he realized that his fellow companions were already lined up and ready to begin; Eren let out a silent groan, there was no chance in hell that he was going to be able to sneak into the lineup without everyone seeing he was late. But he could definitely try and just hope Levi was in a good mood today. Levi was walking up and down the front of the lines so all Eren had to do was time it so he would sprint when Corporal's back was to him.

Eren timed it perfectly; when Levi had his back turned during one of his morning yelling sessions at the new recruits, Eren quickly sprinted to his spot with a huge grin on his face. It was going to work! Eren mentally gave himself a pat on his back when he was almost in his spot. Well, it almost worked except his hip tightened up just as Eren was nearing his spot and Eren tumbled to the ground. The smile on his face quickly faded as he fell straight on his face in the mud. Not only did everyone now know that he was late, but now everyone saw him fall, plus now he had a ton of mud in his mouth.

Everyone's eyes flew from Eren to the Corporal who stopped dead in his tracks due to the noise. The aura around the shorter man grew darker as the seconds ticked by; Eren didn't dare to move a muscle; he knew how harsh the Corporal could be so he just laid in the mud until orders were barked at him. But as the seconds ticked on, no noise was said and no one dared to move an inch.

"He is going to get it now." Jean whispered to Armin who was standing next to him. Armin's eyes narrowed and threw a harsh elbow into Jean's side.

"Shut up." Armin whispered back, "Unless you want to be the next person face first in the mud." That instantly shut Jean up as he knew what the underside of the Corporal's boot felt like, and there was no way in hell he wanted to end up under it again.

After what felt like centuries, Eren heard the slosh of boots taking steps in the mud towards him. Eren's heart beat began to race as the sound of the footsteps became louder; the boots stopped right in front of Eren's head and Eren's heart was pounding in his chest so loud he swore the Corporal could hear it.

"Jaeger." The dark voice seemed to echo in Eren's head; Eren mumbled something, but it wasn't even close to being understandable. "Do you like laying around in horse shit or are you going to stand up."

Eren could feel his cheeks grow read as he quickly tried to push himself off of the muddy ground, but when he jumped up pain rocked his lower half and Eren fell to his knees.

"Can you not stand, brat?" Levi spoke as he watched the brat fall back down to his knees one more time. Eren just sat there for a moment looking into the mud as if he was trying to push through the pain.

"Shit…" Eren mumbled to himself as he slowly raised himself so he was looking down at the Corporal. The Corporal raised an eyebrow at the way that Eren's hips seemed to be shaking ever so slightly. Jean began to snicker to himself and the Corporal's eyes seemed to follow the noise. The Corporal sent daggers at Jean from the corner of his eyes; when Jean noticed the glare he instantly shut up.

"Did someone work you too hard last night?" The Corporal's face didn't change as he watched Eren's eyes grow wide and a rather nice blush began to cover his face. All the trainees didn't know what to do as they just watched the two and try to hold in their laughter.

"I don't know what you are talking about, sir." Eren sneered at the shorter man, "I am perfectly fine." Once again Levi simply raised an eyebrow at the brat but decided not to say anything, yet.

Corporal Levi simply nodded at the taller man and walked past the man as if he was paying him no mind. Eren let out a sigh of relief; he had gotten out of this situation without causing too big of a scene. Boy, was he really wrong. Corporal Levi had taken two steps then swiftly turned around and kicked Eren right in the arse causing him to drop like a stone. Eren let out a loud groan as he fell onto his hands and knees; he had to resist the urge to rub out the pain that was ten times worse now that the devil himself decided to kick him there. Eren lifted his head up just high enough to glare at the Corporal who was now standing in front of him with a rare smirk filling his features.

"What is it, Jaeger?" The Corporal asked as he glared down at the younger recruit who looked as if he was going to simply combust, "Can't stand up? Why do your hips hurt so much?"

Eren shot daggers at the shorter man as he pushed himself off of the ground for what seemed like the umpteenth time in the last ten minutes. Eren's hips wobbled and swayed a little bit, but he stood up with his chest held out and his chin up high, but a blush still covered his face. Corporal was having fun teasing the younger male until the he saw how much mud Eren had accumulated on the front of his uniform and it almost made him twitch it disgust.

"Go clean your uniform off, and return on a timely fashion." Corporal spewed out at the younger male. "Your hips better work by then." Eren's blush deepened as the images of the night prior erupted into his mind, and this did not go unnoticed by Levi. The Corporal began to walk by the taller man, but as he passed him he halted and whispered, "Because later I will destroy them."

Eren's face turned beat red as the blush began to travel down his neck and his mouth fell open, but no words came out. He couldn't believe that Levi had just said that in public, sure no one heard him, but still. Eren must have been taking too long because Levi once again had to stop in his tracks to yell.

"Jaeger! Make this like one of your quickies and hurry it up!" Levi's dark tone seemed to shock some sense into Eren.

Eren jumped a little, but he turned towards the Corporal saluted him and then, as soon as he could, he sprinted off towards the barracks. Once the doors closed behind him he leaned up against the door trying to catch his breath. His face was still flustered just as his heart was still pounding in his chest; Eren let out a groan as he could feel the heat rising in his stomach, yet he was also extremely pissed that Levi would do that in public.

Eren pushed off the door and made his way to the showers, but with every step he was thinking of a way to get back at Levi later that night.

Levi stormed his way throughout the hallways; he was extremely livid at a certain brown-haired man that he couldn't seem to find. Ever since training that morning the stupid brat had been avoiding him like that plague; Levi sighed when he looked in the mess hall and saw that Eren wasn't there either. Sure, Levi had gone a little rough on him this morning before training, but Eren had shown up late and Levi can't show favorites. Although, that sweet blush that trickled down Eren's neck and chest was so delectable that it made it too easy to continue teasing the younger trainee.

Levi was about to leave the mess hall, but the sound of dishes shattering on the ground caused him to pause by the doorway. Levi turned on his heels and began to walk towards the kitchen; whoever he found in there was about to get the shit kicked out of them for being in there after hours. With every step he took towards the door, the sound of yelling seemed to grow louder as did Levi's annoyance.

"Oi, what is goi-" Levi began to say as he pushed open the door, but stopped mid-sentence when he noticed what was going on.

The first thing that was out of place would be the puddle of water that was spreading throughout the room; the next would be the white pieces of Levi's cup shattered all over the floor adding to the destruction that seemed to be appearing the more Levi looked around. Soon Levi's eyes fell to the two people in the middle of the floor who froze in their exact positions and hadn't moved a muscle since he walked in. There was the brown-haired brat he was looking for laying in the puddle of water; the only problem was that Jean was draped on top of Eren with his on hand in Eren's and the other one twisted up into Eren's shirt.

Horror flashed across Eren's face when he watched Levi enter the room; he didn't want Levi to see that he had broken his cup. Eren couldn't find it in his the ability to move in his brain so he just laid in the puddle of water until Levi said something.

"Clean this shit up." Levi stated before turning his back on the two, "And Jaeger?" Levi spoke without turning to face the brown haired boy, "You are being switched off night watch from now one." The words seemed to be filled with venom, as they seemed to take away Eren's ability to breath.
