A/N: Sorry for the long wait *bows*. It has been a bit hectic on my side and me trying to write another oneshoot (which at the moment has 5.800 words, goal being 12k words) really does not help with the update.
Besides I think I am a bit stuck with this story. I do not know what is happening anymore. xD I mean my goal was to get Eren and Levi together… Well I did get them alone… but now what? The poor babies are running from the titans and I do not see any point to it xD Oh well, I will have to figure something out.

Chapter 7: Missing in Action – Trust
There was a lull and a wet feeling. It was warm but damp. Eren groaned as his consciousness slowly returned. He heard some muffled sound – a name? Someone was calling out a name? Whose name?
“-en”
His head felt like a lead and his eyes refused to open. The occasional sting on his cheeks did not help his head either. It was becoming quite annoying actually. He willed his hand to move and he blocked the next slap by swatting the annoying something away that was hitting his cheeks.
“-ger, you…. –er.. snap…out…it”
Eren furrowed his brows and concentrated on the words he was hearing.
“Kid,” the voice trailed off. “This is fucked up.” There was some sound of water sloshing around and Eren felt his back settle against something firm and warm. “It is getting ridiculous… You hear me, fucking brat? Of course you do not, shit.” There was a sharp intake of air and then a warm breath ghosted over Eren’s right ear. “I should just dunk you and let you drown, you know?” Eren felt how a hand that was holding him tightened on his chest. “Not that I would, I am just a big talk, you know. Fuck, good thing you are unconscious.”
“Um... Corporal?”
Levi jerked in unexpectedness and his hand momentarily let go, which resulted in Eren’s head submerging under some liquid. A second later he recovered from the slight scare and tugged the flailing teenager up to the surface.
“Impeccable timing like always, Yeager,” Levi’s tone was sarcastic.
Eren blinked, trying to regain his vision and smirked before answering, “And you are quite talkative, corporal.”
“Shut up, bra–”
“HOLLY SHIT!” Eren suddenly screamed and started flailing in the warm liquid, breaking out from the corporal’s grip. He managed to turn around and was ready to clamber over the corporal if he had to, to get away from the sight that greeted his eyes.
“CALM YOURSELF,” Levi raised his voice and the teenager stilled.
Eren never heard Corporal Levi raise his voice before, which was enough to snap him out of the panicked state. His turquoise gaze settled on the smaller man, trying to regulate his breathing. Levi was scowling, he noticed, but there was a slight gash on his left cheek. Eren unconsciously reached out and caught a few blood drops from under the wound.
Levi took a shuddery breath. He was tempted to just swat the hand away but he simply let the brat caress his cheek. The whole situation was throwing him off the balance it seemed. He did not know what to expect next and the way things were going… Well they were not going to make it back… ever…
“What happened?” There was a soft inquiry from Eren.
“You did not transform.”
Eren nodded, he remembered the cave collapsing, when he was about to bite his hand. He was too late. Levi pushed him away from a falling boulder. They both fell on the ground. Then there was a titan snout just in front of them, all grinning in a happy blissed out smile, then teeth then… darkness.
“What…? No,” Eren shook his head. He pretty much knew what had happened. The titan had eaten them, judging by all the blood and disintegrating bodies around them. He remembered the first time he was eaten. How scared he was, how angry he was, how he failed in his very first real mission. He lost his leg back then… Later his hand was bitten off; finally, he was eaten…
Eren’s eyes suddenly widened. He snapped out of his thoughts and grabbed Levi’s shoulders slightly shaking the smaller man.
“You… Did… I… that is, your Hands? Legs?”
“Stop shaking me, you idiot, I have a rib broken!”
“Fractured,” Eren automatically corrected the corporal.
“What nonsense are you spouting about now?”
“Are your arms and legs ok? I mean, did the titan… Did he bite…” He trailed off, looking expectantly at Levi.
The man sighed, and rubbed the bridge of his nose, too tired to care that his expressionless façade was crumbling.
“My limbs are fine,” Levi sighed and glanced to his right, “though your left arm is not.”
“Huh?” Eren was confused for a few seconds then his eyes traveled to his own left hand and he gasped.
There was only a stump – no fingers, no palm… and his wrist was slightly smoking.
“Well,” Levi drawled still looking at Eren’s slowly regrowing hand, “at least you have your regenerative abilities. In an hour or so it should be restored.”
“Mmm…” Eren hummed still thoughtfully gazing at his stump. It did not hurt. “So what are we going to do now?”
“I read your file, Yeager, you have been in a situation like this before, so you tell me.”
“I turned into a titan…”
“So turn into a titan again, as I do not feel like testing whether a titan has gag reflex or not, when I shoot the grapple hook to its throat.”
“Riight… I was alone back then though… What if I step on you? What if I…”
“I will kick your ass if you–”
“What is the fascination with my ass?” Eren blurted out before he could stop himself.
“Eren,” there was a distinctive warning in Levi’s tone. He opened his mouth to say something but then seemingly changed his mind and closed it with a snap. He simply shook his head. “That is probably our only way out, kid. Even if I manage to somehow get up there with the 3DMG, I will not be able to force-open its mouth. We will have to take the risk of you shifting, or be... digested or whatever that thing does until it shits us out.”
“Ugh, I would rather we live,” Eren said with scrunched up nose. His eyes landed on his slowly smoking stump. There was no time for waiting. They had to do it now or never.
Eren took a deep breath and looked around once again. The sight was just as gruesome as the previous time. Bodies all around, the redness… His gaze traced upwards but all he could see was darkness. Well, duh, the titan did not walk with his mouth open all the time. He took another breath and looked at Levi, who was watching him expectantly.
“Well, here goes nothing,” Eren lifted his hand to his mouth and was about to bite down on it, when he felt Levi’s fingers on his upper arm.
“I trust you,” Levi’s eyes were serious but his tone was the same as always – flat.
Eren’s heart skipped a beat and his breast filled with warmth. If he was hesitant before, now he was determined. He could do this. Everything will be all right. As long as they are together and as long as corporal trusts him, they will be all right. They will make it back to the wall. They will be safe.
“Your trust is not misplaced, corporal,” he whispered to the man and bit hard into his hand.
“I hope so,” the man said when a bright flash filled the titan stomach.
Everything went in a blur, in a matter of mere seconds. He felt himself pushed harshly against a huge palm, fingers curled loosely around his form and the formed fist flew up and out of the titan’s head. A few minutes later the fist uncurled letting the man step out of the palm on the smoking ground.
Levi looked around. There was a shredded carcass of a titan a few feet away from him. Blood was strewn all across the clearing, smoking slowly, dissolving into the air and purging the ground of the gore. He turned around, facing the shifter boy, who was at the moment in his titan form and silently watching him.
“We should get going, Eren,” Levi shouted up at the kneeling titan. “This will attract other titans and we better get our asses as far as possible before that happens.”
Eren grunted and placed his hand on the ground, palm facing upwards.
Levi understood the invitation and climbed on the proffered hand.
Eren stood up and brought the corporal to his chest. He seemed to hesitate for a few seconds as if not knowing what to do with the small burden in his palm. Then he curled his fingers loosely around the corporal, shielding him from the wind that will be blowing as he will be speeding through the fields. He started running.
Levi seated himself on the palm and huffed out a strained sigh. All the movement was not very good for his slowly mending rib. It was not the right time to complain though. He closed his eyes and tried to think.
Alright, so they were in that forest, then they got eaten by some titan… who was fighting with other titans. What the hell did that mean? Yes, a question to be pondered at a later time. Now, they were eaten… and they spent some good 3 hours inside the stomach. All that time, the titan was moving. So they traveled quite some distance.
Levi opened his eyes again and peered through Eren’s gigantic fingers. The scenery was not familiar. Were they even heading to the right direction?
Eren grunted, a rumble coming from deep within him and travelling up his chest.
Levi looked up. All he could see was Eren’s neck, chin, and a mass of longish hair blobbing about him as he ran. He frowned. Eren wanted to communicate something to him but he was not sure what.
Eren suddenly changed running direction and Levi fell on his side, grunting in pain. He quickly pushed himself up on his hands and scanned the surroundings. He saw an aberrant charging at them with its long hands swaying merrily at its hips and with an eerie smile plastered on its face.
A battle was unavoidable now. Not good. Levi was being a hindrance. Even if he was transferred to a shoulder or other place on Eren, the titan shifter could not utilize his full strength.
Aberrant was now on Eren’s heels and Levi was about to tell him to just let him go, so he can use his 3DMG, when Eren spun around and smashed a fist into the titan’s face with such force, that he punched a hole through it. The heavy body fell down on the ground with a shuddering thump and Eren jumped on his head, trampling on it a few times. The skull of the titan was now just a puddle of red goo and the slumped body started to evaporate.
“Well that was gross,” Levi whispered to himself.
Eren turned away from the carcass and started running again. A few more titans appeared but they were dealt with in a similar manner. When the sun started setting the pair finally found a cave that was quite sturdy looking and Eren changed back. They walked inside.
Again they were lucky enough to find a small pool of water inside it and they both took turns to bathe.
A rucksack survived through this whole ordeal as the corporal did not let go of it when they were eaten. They still had the blankets and some water. After sharing the water they both curled up in their respective blankets and prepared for a long night.
