Attack on Titan / Shingeki no Kyojin belongs to Hajime Isayama.
Monday
Eren let a tired sigh escape him as he trudged through the door. He tossed his bag onto a small end table and slipped off his shoes. He promptly fell into the soft cushions of the couch, burying his head in one of the pillows that were scattered about.
"Eren? You home?"
"Yes," he called back wearily. He didn't move an inch from his sprawled position.
A hand found his brown locks, massaging his scalp a bit. "How did everything go?"
He hummed a bit in appreciation, his eyes falling shut, "Well, I didn't die, so that's a plus."
Levi let out a deep chuckle. "Yes, I suppose death would be a downside."
"I probably failed, every answer I wrote out was 98% bullshit and me repeating myself," he muttered.
"Sounds like a personal problem - you should've gotten more rest. I made sure you were ready," came the nonchalant reply.
Eren merely huffed, "Yeah, yeah."
"That being said, I'm seriously going to kick your ass if you did fail."
"Mmm-hmm.."
Levi's gray eyes narrowed, "I'm serious shitface."
"Yeah okay," he agreed sleepily.
Smack!
"OW! WHAT THE HELL LEVI!?"
"Don't fall asleep while we're having a conversation," the raven growled, arms crossed as he peered down at the other.
Eren's oceanic orbs narrowed, "I'm tired."
"Personal. Fucking. Problem."
"You're a personal problem," he shot back in rising agitation.
Levi glared, "Come talk when you can act like a normal fucking human being."
As his senior walked away towards the kitchen, he immediately felt guilt. He couldn't help that he got snippy when he was tired. Eren ran a hand through his hair. A quick glance at the clock made him feel worse - not home ten minutes and he had already pissed his lover off.
"Dammit," he cursed, looking towards the kitchen. Perhaps if he apologized and sweet talked Levi, he could convince him to join him in an afternoon nap. He deliberated it a bit before rising. It couldn't hurt to try.
The brunette padded into the kitchen, looking around a bit for Levi. "Levi? You in here?" A strike of confusion went through him as he scanned the surrounding rooms. "Levi?"
Suddenly his shirt was yanked back and cold things were tumbling down his shirt.
"AAHHH SHIT THAT'S COLD!" Eren yelped loudly, struggling to free himself of the ice cubes. He danced around like a fool, beginning to shiver. He glared in an accusing manner at his boyfriend who stood with his arms crossed, having deposited the ice cube tray on the counter.
"Maybe now you'll chill the fuck out."
He stared for a few minutes before breaking into hysterical laughing. Tears formed in the corner of his eyes as he continued to howl with laughter.
Levi allowed himself a small smile at the display. His plan had worked better than intended.
When he had calmed, Eren wiped at his eyes and smiled at his lover. "Asshole," he muttered, smile still in place.
A smirk was the only reply he got.
"Whatever the hell your plan was, it worked," he said lightly. The brunette hugged the smaller body to his own, "Thanks babe."
"Ugh don't call me that," Levi groaned in distaste, "I have a name, you know."
Eren only laughed again. He relaxed readily when a pair of lips found his. "Indulge me in an afternoon nap, my love?"
"Hnnn why not."
They walked hand in hand to their bedroom, Eren quickly stripping into more relaxing clothes. Levi had already sat on the bed and grabbed a book. The younger couldn't stop a fond smile from slipping into his face.
"Y'know in a world of black and blue, I'm sure glad I ended up with you," he murmured.
The raven rolled his eyes, "That was so fucking cheesy."
"But true."
"Whatever, brat."
Eren got onto the bed put a small pillow in Levi's lap, then promptly stuffed his face into it. He gave a pleased sigh when a hand began running through his hair.
"I'll let you nap for a couple of hours and then we are going to eat and watch a movie. Then we're getting your ass to bed early," Levi said with authority.
"Mmmmm'kay," came the sleepy reply.
Knowing that his lover couldn't see it, the man smiled. He bent down a placed a kiss on the other's head. "Rest dumbass."
"Love you…"
"Yeah love you too."
Tuesday
The rain that was coming down suited his mood a bit too well. Levi had reminded him to bring an umbrella but of course he had forgotten it. So he trudged home miserable and cold. Plus he would have to wait for his lover to get home which was still two hours away.
He shut the door to their home with a long sigh, dropping his jacket and backpack onto a pan that would catch any water that came off of it. His shoes met a similar fate.
Eren made a quick break for the bathroom connected to the master bedroom. He stripped bare and threw his wet clothing in the bathtub with the intent of taking care of them later. He then dried off any extra water and got into his softest and warmest pajamas.
Then he headed into the kitchen and made himself a cup of hot chocolate. The cold began to leave his limbs as he sucked in the heat of his drink. But it didn't help how miserable he felt.
If he hadn't completely and utterly butchered his math final, he would be amazed.
Eren sulked into the living room, wrapping himself in the huge fluffy blanket he had insisted they get. He switched on the TV out of habit. The Christmas specials that were on held no interest for him… But the background noise helped fill the silence of the house.
He curled in on himself, rubbing at his eyes to try and stop the tears he knew wanted to fall. He failed in his attempt and ended up crying to himself.
Those two hours seemed to flash by as before he knew it, the front door was opening to reveal Levi dressed as sharply as ever.
The raven deposited his umbrella in the bin they had, rolling his eyes as he spotted Eren's wet attire. Once he had removed his shoes, he moved into the living room. A twinge of concern hit him as he took in his boyfriend's upset disposition.
He continued quickly into their bedroom and changed into his own pajamas. Then he traveled back to the living room, slipping under the blanket alongside his brat and bringing him in for a tight embrace.
Eren said nothing as he huddled against him, trying to calm himself.
"It's alright, I know you're stressed out," he soothed.
Levi eventually reclined on the couch, dragging Eren to lay over him with his head on his chest. The blanket cocooned them with a comfortable warmth. One of his hands found the other's hair, running his fingers through it gently.
"That's two days out of the way though," he murmured, "only three more."
"That's way too many," Eren muttered against his chest.
The raven rolled his eyes, "That's almost halfway, dumbass."
"Mmmph… Still too long."
"How did it go today?"
"Terrible," he replied dully, "I know I failed this time."
A small smirk came to Levi's face, "Is that why you were crying?"
Eren pouted, "Maybe I was sweating from being under the blankets - or maybe I was eating an onion! Don't jump to conclusions, asshole."
"Because those are both normal things that happen."
"S-Shut up," the younger spluttered.
"Honestly you make it so easy to tease you," the raven haired man commented.
"And you make it so easy to kiss you!"
An elegant eyebrow rose in question.
Eren said nothing more but surged forward and kissed his boyfriend. When they at last broke apart, he smirked, "If I get sick from being in the rain, guess you're going down with me."
A look of mild horror appeared on his lover's face, "You little shit!"
The brunette squealed loudly when two hands began to torment his sides. He choked on his own laughter as he writhed about, "L-Levi haha s-stop it!"
Their positions had somehow flipped and Eren realized he was staring up at the other. He flushed a bit when he noticed Levi's exact potion. He breathed in heavily with a mock glare, "I hate you."
A hand reached down and palmed his crotch, "Really? Because this is telling me otherwise."
He let out a strangled whine, eyes going wide, "L-Levi!"
Those gray eyes reflected mischief, "I know the perfect way to relieve stress, Eren..."
The boy shuddered, "God… S-Stop teasing just get on with it.."
"On the couch?" Levi looked uncomfortable with the idea.
"You'll have to - hahhhh - c-carry me because my legs are useless at t-this point," he murmured, wiggling as his senior continued to palm him.
"Done."
On the walk to the bedroom, Eren began kissing any flesh he could find. "L-Love you."
"Hmmm, love you too dummy," he replied before he shut the bedroom door.
