LevixInjured!Reader {Place of Safety}

You limped towards HQ as pain coursed through your body, you weren't a soldier but you had to reach there, it was your place of safety. Blood ran down your face, the source from the forehead, ankle throbbing in pain as a nasty bruise formed on the left cheek, you didn't know if anywhere else hurt since your entire body was painful.

You didn't know what happened, all you remembered was bumping into your bully from childhood and then everything was a blur from there, all you remembered was the pain.

You had fled and you also remember the taunts your bully and his gang threw at you, not being behind the wall was safe. You paused as the pain continued but you kept on going.

You huffed and kept on going. You looked around and you were paranoid that your taunter was following you, but can you blame yourself? You had been picked on by him since childhood and he hasn't changed, he claims he's a man and yet...He's picking on a woman, some man huh?

You clutch the side of your stomach, feeling sick you felt warm blood on your hand, you kept on going, not stopping at all, you wanted him, to be safe in his arms.

“I found you!”

Your eyes widened as you broke into a run, limping as you did so. You shrieked when you felt something heavy on you and you fell. You hit your head and blacked out instantly, the last thing you heard was laughter from your tormentor.

Close, you were so close to HQ just another few more steps and you would have been within your place of safety.

You came around as you blinked, you felt numb, hurting when you moved, winching as pain shot up your body, soft, something soft was underneath you and on top of you. You looked at your surroundings, your head throbbing in pain, your head on a soft pillow.

You furrowed your brows, how did you get here?

“Ouch.” You whispered.

“Oh, you're awake.”

You looked to see a nurse approach you. You said nothing but blinked.

“Where am I?” You whispered.

“Survey Corps HQ dear, you hit your head and blacked out.”

Then you remembered. You blinked the tears away but said nothing else. You shifted winching as pain shot up your body.

“Don't move too much, you broke your ribs, left hand and ankle, your right wrist and hit your head, the nasty gash you had on your stomach, the bruise on your left cheek and the split lip.”

You winched, ouch, that was a lot of bones you ever broke.

“What happened out there? You're not strong enough to harm yourself.”

You were about to say something but the sound of the door opening got your attention. You pulled the cover over your head, she gave you a sad look but turned her attention to the door, you managed to turn onto your side which wasn't easy.

“Is the patient alright?”

You curled up and bit back the whimper that wanted to escape.

“She's alright, but, her injuries are that of someone coming back from an expedition.”

“Do we know her name?”

“No Commander.”

“How the hell did she get hurt?”

You perked up at the familiar voice and then relaxed knowing you found him.

“Erm...I don't know, you have to ask her.”

You shifted until the cover fell off the top of your head and you turned to lay on your back. You heard footsteps and the cover was pull off your head.

“_____? what the hell happened!?”

You turned your head and your gaze flickered to the other face and was met with steel blue eyes.

“Levi.” You whimpered.

“You know her?” The nurse asked.

“She's my girlfriend.” He explained.

The room fell silent. You closed your eyes as you felt dizzy again, in response he ran his fingers through your (h/c) locks, lips pressing against your forehead.

“Was it him again?”

You slowly nodded, a low growl escaped his throat, he had heard all about your tormentor and got a glimpse of him, but Levi didn't think he would stoop so low, anger was slowly building.

“U-Um, are you sure it's wise to move her?” The nurse asked when you were picked up.

One glare from him made her let out a small squeaked and shut her mouth.

“I want her to rest in privacy, not here where shitty brats can walk in anytime.”

“A-Alright, I'll be over tomorrow morning to change her bandages.”

He grunted and left the room.

By the time he reached his office you had fallen asleep, head resting on his shoulder, he had a careful hold on you due to your injuries, most Cadets glanced in his direction during his journey to his office, curious about the woman in his arms.

Levi narrowed his eyes, not liking that everyone is staring at you, but they never seen you before and it was understandable that they're staring but they looked away when he glared at them. You shifted in his arms.

He mumbled and reached his office door.

“Oi! Jaeger!”

The brunette perked up and looked at him, his gaze went to your sleeping form, a bit confused.

“Open my office door, I got my arms full.”

He nodded and opened the wooden door, with a grumble. Levi walked through the door and closed it with his foot, heading into the next room he gently laid you on the bed, pressing his lips against yours, you fluttered your eyes open.

“Where are you going?” You mumbled, watching him turn around.

“That is no concern to you, you know where my shirts are.”

You watched him go as you slowly sat up, you had a feeling you knew where he was going and damn did you pray for your tormentor, you knew your tormentor wouldn't walk out of this encounter unscathed. You laid back down, relieved you made it to your place of safety.

The tormentor felt damn good, he had hunted you down like prey before you could reach your place of safety, he had been doing it for a long time, since he first set his sight on you when he was much younger.

To him your personal life was a mystery, he wasn't too sure if you were dating or single, his gang had went home for the night. His smug look faded when he spotted someone near the end of his path, leaning against a wall with their arms crossed, when he got closer he noticed it was a male with a green Scouting Legion cloak on him.

Ignoring him your tormentor just went on.

“You can hit a woman, yet you're ignoring someone of the same gender.”

Coming to a stop. The tormentor turned to face the raven haired man who was no longer leaning against the wall.

“And you are?” He asked, realization hit him. “W-Wait, you're Lance Corporal Levi.”

“Well you're not as stupid as I thought.” He sneered.

“What do you want?” The tormentor asked.

“What do I want? To watch you suffer that's what.”

“Wha?”

“Does _____ ring a bell?”

He paled, crap, Levi knew you, he didn't know how the raven haired Corporal knew you but he knew you and that may be a bad thing and he knew the stoic man would of seen your injuries.

“I found her like that, she was jumped.” The idiot explained as Levi placed gloves on his hands. “I managed to get her away from her attackers.”

His explanation was fallen on deaf ears as a fist connected to his face causing him to fall to the ground, a foot slammed onto his chest as the bully wheezed.

“How is it? How is the pain?” Levi asked him, the foot going back down on the chest again. “Do you find attacking a woman fun?” A kick to the side. “You think attacking a woman to the point they have broken bones is fun?”

A foot stomped on the stomach. “You're pathetic, scum, a coward.” A kick to the head. “Do you have any idea how mad I got when I saw my girlfriend in the infirmary injured, do you!”

“G-Girlfriend.”

Another kick to the head. “Yes, _____'s my girlfriend you pig, I have never seen her so scared in my life.”

“I-I didn't mean t-to.”

Levi grabbed him by the collar of his shirt. “You sure scum? I find it hard to believe that a coward like you is telling the truth.” He threw the bully to the floor. “Once a coward always a coward, if I find out you hurt my girlfriend again I will hunt you down and kill you!”

The bully fell unconscious, not dead since Levi wanted him to suffer. He walked off leaving the man unconscious, he had better things to do.

You blinked when you heard footsteps. You slowly sat up, winching as pain overwhelmed you.

“You confronted him, didn't you?” You asked.

“Tch, how can you tell?”

“Your gloves got blood on them.”

He looked at you, he found it amazing you managed to change despite your injuries, your shirt, skirt and bra on a chair in the corner in the room with your shoes on the floor.

“You managed to change?” Levi asked you.

You blushed. “It wasn't easy, but I managed.”

“You sure shitty glasses didn't enter the room?”

You tilted your head, confused of what he was saying, he was satisfied that you didn't know who he was on about. You said nothing and went back to lay down on your side. You snuggled into the covers and closed your eyes, you were about to fall asleep but you opened your eyes when you felt the bed dip. Levi moved over to you since he didn't want you to move too much because of your injuries. You sighed and snuggled into him, he mumbled and wrapped his arms around your fragile body at the moment.

You were slightly worried your tormentor would strike again but you pushed that one aside for now.

You remained within your place of safety while you healed, the healing was slow but painful and Levi refused you to walk alone, if you wanted to go somewhere he sent someone he could trust to keep an eye on you and help you get things you couldn't get because of your injuries.

You spent your days sleeping and eating, walking when you felt like it or when a nurse encourages you to.

To your relief your tormentor hasn't appeared at HQ, as a matter of fact, you hadn't even heard from him, nobody has talked about him, nothing, you felt relieved but you didn't dare wonder out of HQ, you were too scared to.

“You didn't kill him did you?” You asked your boyfriend.

He paused in his paperwork. “No, I just hurt him to the point he fell unconscious, since he did it to you.”

You frowned. “But...Isn't that...Illegal?”

“Not unless you get caught, nobody was around when I beat the shit out of him, and besides, if people did find out they would be against him.”

“I guess you got a point.” You mumbled.

“Anyway, forget about that idiot, he wouldn't dare come near here.”

You nodded. “I guess...”

He got up from his chair and walked to sit next to you on the sofa.

“Stop worrying idiot, I won't allow him to hurt you.”

You slowly nodded, ever since the bullying began you flinch when someone raises a hand at you, your parents did nothing to help you or get rid of your bully.

“I know.” You mumbled as you leaned against him, closing your eyes.

“If he does return or if he bothers you don't hesitate to tell me.”

You smirked. “So you can beat him up again?”

“Shut up.”

You were getting there in healing, you could walk despite it felt weird since you had broke your ankle. You paused and frowned to see your tormentor was intruding in your place of safety. He looked at you and you stiffened.

“What do you want!?”

You turned your head to only see it was Eren, more or less everyone was told about your bully.

“Err...Well...” He mumbled.

You said nothing as the brunette scowled

“Didn't you learn your lesson from the last damn time!? And how the hell did you get in!”

You perked up and the bully shrieked as your boyfriend came into view, you bit back the urge to snicker at his girly scream.

“I'm sorry I won't bother you again!” He shrieked again.

The tormentor left as the three were left standing there. You rubbed your arm.

“Tch, what a wimp, he wouldn't stand a chance on an expedition, he would be good as Titan bait.” Levi grumbled.

“I didn't know he could scream like a girl.” You admitted.

You felt a hand on your right wrist and the two of you walked off.
