(Levi) 
He's standing on the ledge. He's gonna jump. Levi stood frozen for a moment staring at the  brunette and he slowly leaned forward and over the edge. Then all at once Levi came alive, jumping forward to catch him.
                          
His stomach hit the roof and he was half hanging over the edge reaching out and catching the stupid brats wrist.
                          
The boy's head snapped up to stare at him, tears in his eyes and staining his cheeks. "You aren't dying today"
                          
Levi was surprised at how light the boy was, he expected him to weight more... Well not that Levi thought he was gonna be heavy its just... He seemed underweight for a kid his age. Only Mikasa was this light weight, but she was a neko.
                          
"J-just let me fall" the brat wanted Levi to let him fall?! Like that was gonna happen.
                          
"No" Levi's voice was hard. I am not letting him kill himself I don't care how much he wants to. I WILL NOT DROP HIM. 
                          
Levi pulled him over the edge and back onto the roof. And without thinking pulled the brunette into his lap, hugging the boy close. The brat sobbed, the whole time he kept muttering "Why?... W-why would you s-save m-me?"
                          
And Levi didn't know how to answer him. Because I felt like it? That's not the whole story though. Levi just couldn't come up with the answer. Levi said nothing to the brat for what he figured was the better part of an hour. The stupid suicidal brat was unable the quiet his hiccuping sobbs. While Levi was unable to answer his question. Slowly he stopped crying and only sniffled slightly with his head still hung and his hood pulled up, his beautiful eyes hidden behind his hands. 
                          
"Hey" it was supposed to be reassuring. But he could tell it wasn't when Eren jumped and stiffened. Did I scare him? Is he scared of me? "Eren right?" He nodded. "Levi" Eren said something but it was muffled due to his hands being over his face. "What? Speak up and move your hands brat"
                          
"I-i k-know... I r-remember" it took Levi a moment to figure out what the boy was saying. "Your n-nametag..  At the c-cafe." Thecafe... His wrists. .. The scars. Levi snatched Eren hands from his face, the boy made a strangled sound of surprise. Levi yanked up Eren's sleeve in search if scars, in hope of seeing nothing that it had all been a trick of the light. 
                          
But no such miracle happened. Old scars and new ones, blood still on his wrists slightly drying. "Eren..." The boy shook in his grasp. "Why?" Tears threatened to spill onto the boys cheeks. Levi pulled Eren up as he stood. Then bent over kissing Eren's wrists and the scars on them. He pulled his sleeve back down and intertwined their fingers pulling the traumatized boy along with him to the elevator.
                          
Back then while kissing Eren's wrists he realized something. Why he had been obsessed with the boy sense seeing him in the cafe at work. Why he had saved him. He had the answer to the brats question.
I love him?
