It was Sunday afternoon and Eren sat in a stool chair with crossed arms as his face flushed of red, Of all the people who had worked here why did it have to be him?

At the cafe, Armin, Jean, Mikasa and Eren all sat at the Kenny's Cafe sitting in the stool chairs of the counter as Kenny Ackerman worked behind the counters, and while Levi Ackerman glared at the four students as he dried off a mug with a white rag. 

"Sooo..," Levi rolled up his white sleeves as he slapped the white rag on his shoulder as he place his hands on the counter,"what can I get you?"

"Oh, where not here to eat or drink anything," Mikasa said. 

"Then why the hell are you here?" Levi asked. 

"I should ask you the same thing...," Jean said with a slight smirk and a raised an eyebrow as he turn to give a sly look at Armin who sat next to him. 

"Oh haha very funny that your teacher is working part time at a cafe...Just helping out my old man," Levi said. 

"You're old man?" Armin and Jean asked on cue. 

"Here we go again," Eren sighed as he leaned his cheek on his fist. 

"Mikasa...and Mr. Ackerman...are related?" Jean questioned, He looked at the man known as Kenny as he asked,"So, You're Mr. Ackerman's dad?" 

"There's no way I could be Kenny's son," Levi said with an irritated look as Kenny turned around with a booming laugh.

"Aaawwwwhhhh- when are you finally going to accept my fatherly love?" Kenny laughed as he place an arm around his shoulder.

"So, Mr. Ackerman and Mikasa are more like cousins," Jean simply put it. 

"So you work here only part time?" Armin asked his teacher.

"Yeah...this job isn't much but I do what I can," Levi said. 

"Anyway, what brings you kids here?" Kenny asked them. 

"We have some unsettling information that we hope you can help us with," Mikasa said. 

"Oh?" Kenny raised an eyebrow.

Soon enough Kenny along with the gang all sat upstairs at the dinning room where they all discuss about the strange texts and emails. 

"So... first thing's first, I'll need copies of all the emails and text messages you guys have received and I will do some investigating... but in the mean time I suggest you guys to be in groups no less then two or three and be aware of everyone." Kenny said in a serious matter. 

"What do you mean? We have to stuck together, all the time?" Mikasa asked.

"Well yeah if you don't want to be targeted by this unknown person," Kenny said in a matter of fact,"Actually, It'll be best if no one is alone when traveling."  

"Okay, I can give you copies tomorrow," Mikasa said.

"you guys can just email me all your messages and I can print them out here," Kenny said.

"Okay that makes sense," Jean said as they all pulled out their phones.

"Send them to [email protected]," Kenny said. 

"got it," Jean said as the others forward their messages to the account.

"Now regarding this person...," Kenny began with a sighed as he asked,"Now is there any other messages where one or many of you guys are interacting with this person, personally?"

"What do you mean?" Eren asked.

"For instance is this person talking to anyone directly?"

"Well, there is a particular person who was stalking one of us but we don't know if that person is this "Hunter" character or is working along side em," Jean said.

"Oh? How so?" Kenny turn to him with attentive eyes.

"Jean's talking about me," Armin confessed,"There is this guy at school who used to bully me until Eren confront him. Zander went to the lengths of bullying be from the sidelines as he stalked me and took pictures of me to keep taps on me. Even black-mailed if I told anyone my delima,"He said looking down.

"I see," Kenny said then he asked,"And this Zander isn't related to 'Hunter'?" 

"I don't think so...but I could be wrong. The person goes to extrem lengths to get what he wants," Armin stated,"...this person was even targeted regarding the last email."

"...This...person would followed you, it's safe to be suspicious, " Kenny said, "However we also can't rule out that maybe he too is also a victim," 

"huh?" Jean and Eren raised an eyebrow. 

"Whether you all like it or not, this other person is involved just as much as all of you and frankly...this other person needs to be in the loop too," Kenny said.

They all turn to look at each other with wide eyes.

"Fuck that!" Jean said,"I'm not letting that druggy come around us!"

 Eren agreed,"He's a suspect to us after all!"

"We don't trust him," Mikasa also chimed in.

"Is that so?" Kenny asked flickering his eyes.

"Zander isn't one of us," Armin said with his hand into a fist. 

"Very well," Kenny paused as he then stated after viewing all their texts and emails, "From the looks of your phones and the strange emails I can't tell you if this Hunter person is a male or female nor is an adult or teenager... And I can understand why you all seem suspects of Zander considering his threatening emails to Armin; however,  I can try to track down this Hunter's location..." Kenny said as he stood up to turn to a desk in a corner and unplugged his laptop as he placed it on the table then opened it up.  

Soon they all gather around the laptop,"I would need copies of all of your phone numbers and current email address," Kenny said as pulled out a small notebook from the desk. 

One by one they all wrote down their email addresses and their phone numbers.

"So how are you gonna track this person down?" Jean asked. 

"Well, it all depends on what device they are using. If the person are using a laptop I have to hack into a server to find the IP address and the suspects location. If the person is using a cellphone I have to find which cell phone tower the signals are bouncing off to find the location." Kenny said. 

"I see," Jean said. 

"It will not be so easy considering I have to hack into the person's account either via mobile or by the web," Kenny said. 

"Hang on a second," Jean turn to Eren,"Didn't something weird happened to Armin's phone at the hospital?"

"You mean Armin's screen turning black?" Eren recalled. 

"Yeah so you think Zander hacked into Armin's phone to do that trick?" Jean ask.

"There are ways to control a device by hacking it without having to touch the phone if that's what you are wondering about." Kenny said. 

"Scary," Eren looked at Armin as they exchanged unsettling faces.

"Okay, I think this is a good stopping point for today," Kenny said as he looked at the clock which read eight pm. 

"I'd say," Jean said as he looked at his phone to a text message he received from Macro.  

"Marco asked me to pick him up," Jean announced to the group. 

"Pick him up?" Eren question. 

"Did something happened to him?" Mikasa asked.

"I'm not sure it just says," Jean turn his phone to show them the message which he read...

"Jean come get me...," Jean read.

"Let's all go," Mikasa said.

"Now hold on," Jean said as he thought about this more clearly. 

"Before I came with you guys, Marco told me he was hanging out with Sasha and Connie," Jean explained,"I'm going to call him before we all jump the gun if something bad happened to him or not," Jean said as he picked up he phone and left the room to make a phone call. 

The phone rang for what it seemed like only three seconds before Jean heard Marco's voice,"Hello?"

"Marco? What's going on? Are you-?" Before Jean could finish he can hear loud music and laughing in the background.

"Ahahahaa-yeahhhh I-I need some..ass-uh--hahaha assistance ahahaha!" Macro said over the phone, his voice sounded loud and goofy.

"Are you okay?" Jean questioned.

"YYYEEEEEEEAAAHHH BBBOOOIIIIII-I'm chillin like a villain bruh-when you coming to-to pick me up?" Marco said. 

"Are you drunk?" Jean asked.

"Uh...nah man im cool im cool-uhhhhahahahahaaha you caught me boi," Marco then laugh obnoxiously.

"where are you? And is Connie and Sasha?" Jean asked.

"I-I dunno mann, they gone," Marco said. 

"Okay where are you?" Jean asked.

"Ya know, i'm at da corner of...of Mackly and..uh, McGover's..." Marco said. 

"Okay I'll be there soon! Don't go anywhere," Jean said as he hung up the phone.

He turned back to the room as Mikasa turn with widen eyes,"Is everything okay?"

"Marco's...drunk and needs help walking home," Jean said. 

"drunk?" Eren and Armin turn to each other.

"I'm not sure, what's going on...It's not like him to be drinking," Jean said with a concern look. 

"We can take my car to go and pick him up," Kenny suggested.

"Okay thanks," Jean said with relief.

"Wait didn't you say that he was with Sasha and Connie?" Mikasa asked.

"Yeah before we got off the phone he told me he was alone," Jean said.

"Let me come with you,"Mikasa said,"I have their numbers so I can call them if they are near by," 

"Sounds good," Jean said. 

"As for Eren and Armin, maybe it's best if you too stay put here," Kenny said. 

"Oh okay," Armin and Eren said. 

"We should be back shortly," Kenny said as Mikasa and Jean followed him out of the room. 

Eren and Armin didn't move from the dinning room table. In fact the atmosphere was still and quite. 

Why does it feel awkward between us? There is just some many question I want to ask but I can't...

"Hey," Armin ironically began the conversation. 

Eren turn to him,"Yeah?"

"Something has been bothering me..." Armin said,"I've been kind of worried about you," 

"What, why" Eren asked. 

Levi had closed up the cafe shop downstairs and just before Kenny had left with Mikasa and Jean had briefly told him of there whereabouts. Levi had finished cleaning and decided to go upstairs to gather some new kitchen supplies which where still in storage. It was then walking up the stair and entering the other room next to his students which gathering supplies he briefly overheard the student's conversation.

"Before all this mess, I've noticed a change in your behavior and it got me thinking...," Armin paused, "Is someone taking advantage of you too?" Armin asked with a demanding look on his face.

In the other room a Levi froze as he stood almost terrified to hear what would come out of the boy's mouth. 

"What? No...no one is messing with me...I've just been going through some stupid shit...," Eren said some what stalling.

"What kind of shit?" Armin asked the choice of words. 

"Well...Emotionally I guess...," Eren said,"I can't really explain it," 

"Are you just overwhelmed with stress?" Armin asked. 

"I guess stress is a big part of it," Eren said honestly," But more importantly what about you? Armin should should at least tell someone what Zander did to you," 

Armin looked down and for a moment he didn't say anything until he said,"I can't..I'm utterly and completely numb," 

Suddenly with Eren slammed his hands on the desk,"I'm just so pissed I could kill him," He spat, "I understand you don't want me to make anything worst but IF you're not telling Mr. Pixis along with these strange emails I can tell em for you," Eren said. 

...What is going on? Levi thought as he heard the conversation. 

"Eren I told you don't," Armin plead,"There's no point of dragging it any farther," Armin said. 

"What if he tries to drug you again? What will you do?" Eren protested.

Armin stood up,"I won't," 

"Armin, I've seen these type of behavior before, he's not going to stop. I'm afraid he's gonna do something bad," Eren said with consider,"Maybe we really should go to the cops. He has stalking pictures of you," 

"I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE HE HAS PICTURES OF," Armin spat out.

Eren froze, I can't believe...that I completely forgot...

"Don't you remember I told you he has a picture of you too?"Armin said. 

Levi stood in the other room as he listened. 

"Fuck Zander Meyers!" Armin made a fist,"He got a picture of you kissing some dude..."

"What dude?" Eren protested. 

"I saw the picture but it was only for a glance but who knows how many pictures he has and of who. We all know he got exposing photos of me," Armin said.

"Then lets steal his phone," Eren said. 

"What why?" Armin asked. 

"I don't care about the photos he has of me," Eren lied trying to be more heroic for his friend,"But we gotta get that phone so we can delete your photos Armin," He said,"What if he exposes those photos of you?" Eren said, Not just you're photos but I'm more concern if Zander's got any photos of me and Mr. Ackerman on there... 

"If anything I know about Zander is that he wouldn't do anything too crazy like murder or anything," Armin trailed off.

"Are you sure about that?" Eren questioned with crossed arms,"He has the possessive trait," He paused.

"...He just made me feel so...weird," Armin said as his face turn red recalling those hands he once felt. 

I understand, Eren observed his expression, Maybe his like me...BUt he was drugged so maybe the experience was more intense...more sexual?  Eren trailed off into his thoughts as he remembered that kiss he felt from his teacher,"Like you are different from everyone else?" Eren said out loud. 

Armin turn to him with a puzzled expression,"how did you..," Armin blinked,"He's not targeting you too!?" 

"No, but I can only imagine how you feel around...Zander." Eren said the name as he turned to see Armin's expression hoping mentioning his name wouldn't upset him. 

"yeah," Armin turn to look somewhat disappointed, imagine.

"I'm going to use the restroom," Armin said as he stood up to go down the stairs to use the cafe restroom. 

Eren stood up as he ran his fingers through his hair feeling a bit overwhelmed.

"I couldn't help but to over hear," The voice cut Eren like a knife as he quickly turn to face Levi. 

"L..levi," Eren said stepping back, as Levi approached him,"I need to go," Eren said as he turned from him but just before he leaves a hand gently grasp his hand as Levi's words lingered,"Wait." Which Eren stops only momentarily.

Eren's face was hung low, too embarrassed to look at Levi as Levi spoke almost in a whisper. 

However it was the words that made him turn,"About that kiss..." Eren turn his face only to see Levi's red face as he hid it away,"I'm sorry."

Eren turns to Levi in a shock, He's apologizing?

Levi gently let go of Eren's hand as he turn swiftly around as he raps his hands around Eren's face pulling him close and for a moment Eren's heart might stop as he kissed Eren's forehead in a sincere loving way which only made Eren burst with butterflies. He's kissing my forehead... Eren thought, But the way he is doing this is almost like...a goodbye...don't tell me....

 Levi slowly turn without even looking at him which leaves Eren with the fleeing feeling of a goodbye. 

Is this the end?

Don't tell me....

....this is the end...

Eren felt like reaching out to Levi as if he didn't want him to leave, an overwhelming feeling of sorrow over came him. He wanted to reach out and chase after him, but his hands and feet where frozen like ice.

Is this is the feeling of a heartache...a heart break...?

Don't tell me this is...

Goodbye..?
