Eren's head was spinning from all the different opinions that flew around the room. He couldn't believe there were so many stories about their teacher. He understood, that maybe the man was little demanding, but he didn't really seem like the type to be wrapped up in anything illegal. He was glad when the girl interrupted them. "Don't worry...I don't really believe that he's running around town shooting people, like some of our classmates think." He laughed softly.
He sat straight, and tried to take notes as quickly as he could, with how erratically the teacher was speaking. She would go this way, then suddenly change paths and go another way. Someone he had learned twenty times more about how rocks formed, than anything about mitosis (which was what they were studying.) When the bell rang to release them to lunch, Eren felt dizzy again. He walked down the halls, trying to process everything that he had been told, just in case it was on a test.
He got his food, then looked around the room for Reiner and Bertolt. The tall young man wasn't honestly hard to find. He quietly made his way over to the table, where a few other people were sitting. There was Mikasa, Armin, Bertolt, Riner, a mean looking blond, a sweet looking blond, and a tan brown haired girl who was hanging onto the sweet one tightly. He got cold feet about going to sit with them, when he saw how many people were sitting at the table. He would have felt like such an outsider if he just wondered in to where they were having their fun. Besides, Mr. Ackermen had asked to see him during his free period.
He turned around to leave, but Bertolt's voice stopped him. "Eren!" He called, waving his arm back and forth. "We're sitting over here." He had a soft smile on his face, which made Eren feel guilty for planning to just leave without saying anything.
"I'm sorry." He said gently, making his way to the table. "But Mr. Ackermen asked me to come and meet him during my next free moment, and I think he meant now."
"Oh...that's too bad-"
"You should be more careful kid." The mean looking blond said, brushing some of her hair out of her eyes. "With sweet doe eyes like yours, a man like Levi will take advantage of you."
"I don't think...." Eren was really confused. "He seems nice enough. He's a bit strict, but that's only because he wants us to be good people one day."
"Alright." She waved him away, turning her head.
"I'll see you later then." Eren said, then made his way out of the cafeteria and down the hall, with his tray of food. He found his first period classroom, and opened the door, only to discover that Levi wasn't there. He put his food down on a desk, and looked around. There were books, and other school supplies. Eren could look out the window, and watch the rest of the students who had gone outside.
