Once upon land they had found a merchant that had purchased just about everything they had brought and gave a pretty penny for it, the rest they would try and trade or keep for next time. At the same merchant Levi was able to purchase Eren some better fitting clothing. He did admit to himself that the mermaid did look quite fine in the new clothes, the colors suited him well.

Once Eren had changed into the newer clothes they walked out heading to the glassmith, a couple of the crewmen in tow. "How do your new clothes feel?"

Eren looked like a child in a sweets store as he looked around the port as he walked with Levi after getting some new clothing, eyes wide and taking in everything he saw. As they made their way to the glassmith, Eren looked now at Levi as he spoke. "They feel amazing. And fit rather well. I really like them." He said with a grin. The mermaid was excited to see what kind of tub he'd have now, glad that he'd gotten enough stuff from the sunken ships that it made them enough money to buy him one.

They walked into the glassmiths and talked to the smith about what they were looking for. The smith was quite confused about the request but as long as he was paid, he wouldn't question it. Levi and the smith spoke for several moments about what Levi was wanting, a couple of times he would look back at Eren to ask his opinion since he would be the one sleeping in it. Not that the glassmith would know that. All Levi told him was that it was going to be a clear bathtub.

The glasssmith put down his pen and took the payment from Levi. "Alright, Cap'n, I have yer tank ready for ya in two days. I'll have it delivered to yer ship to." With that the two of them shook hands and Levi turned to leave.

Eren was beaming just at the description of his new tub. As they left, the brunet was now looking around as they walked, asking all sorts of questions about the different shops and street vendors. "Levi, what is that amazing smell?" The boy asked, softly sniffing the air, slightly wandering towards one of the many food vendors along the street.

Levi lifted his head and sniffed. "Oh, that? That is the turkey legs at the stand over there." He said pointing over at the booth that was roasting turkey legs. It had been a while since they had eaten and was getting quite hungry himself. Grabbing Eren's arm, he pulled him off in the directions of the booth. "Come, I will get a couple for us."

They walked up to the booth and the lady behind the table handed him and Eren over a leg each as Levi paid for it. Levi nodded his thanks as they walked away. Taking a bite of the meat he groaned as the delicious taste hit his tongue. "Fucking delicious."

A small blush made its way to Eren's cheeks as Levi grabbed his arm, leading him to the stand. The brunet's eyes were wide with excitement as he saw all the food being sold and all the smells from the food as Levi paid. He looked over the food handed to him, taking a small sniff, trying to not look to out of place, before taking a small bite.

The mermaid gave a hum of appreciation before taking a bigger bite, chewing slowly to savor the new taste. "This tastes amazing!" Eren said in a happy voice as he ate, smiling all the while.

Levi noticed Eren's expression as he ate his turkey, happy that he could do that for the boy. Levi paused his eating for a moment, he had just realized that he always called the mermaid a boy, but he had no idea exactly how old he was. Looking over at the mermaid he asked. "How old are you, Eren?" They had moved over to sit on some rocks that looked over the beach as they ate their turkey legs.

Eren turned to look at Levi at the question, swallowing the bite he'd just taken. "Oh. I'm twenty five. Why do you ask?" He asked, sitting next to Levi, smiling when he saw the beach and ocean. He never realized how pretty the ocean looked from the other side of it.

"I've just realized I always call you a boy but I never knew how old you were." Levi continued to look him over, quite surprised about his age. "I would have thought you were younger than that." Levi continued to eat his turkey leg and when he was done he threw the bone into the fire that had been started a short distance from them.

They sat there conversing for several moments when Levi stood up and turned back towards the town. "I don't know about you, but after today, I need to get a drink in me. I'm sure the rest of the crew is already doing that." He then muttered to himself, "And I could sure use some company from a wench." He looked down at Eren and held out his hand for him to grab a hold to help him up. "Come, let's head to the local tavern, we will be staying there tonight anyways."

Eren had followed suit, throwing his bone into the fire, watching the flames spark for a moment. When offered Levi's hand, Eren looked up at him, a smile on his face as he took the offered hand, standing up. The ravens words about wenches confused Eren a bit, but figured it would seem useless to question what he meant.

"Oh. Okay. Are the drinks going to be like that brown liquid in your cabin?" He asked, letting his curiosity run his mouth.

Levi let out a chuckle. "No, these aren't going to be as strong, so don't worry." He made his way towards the tavern that they were going to stay at, Eren following close behind.

They walked inside of the tavern and Levi spotted a table for them to sit at. He was unfazed by the intimate acts going on inside, it was a usual occurrence during the evening all the way till morning. Tavern maids were bustling about serving drinks and food to their customers, while the tavern wenches were performing other "favors" for their customers.

Levi looked up at Eren, who looked slightly confused and patted him on the back as to reassure him everything was fine. As he ushered their way to the table as a wench made their way to Levi.

"Well, look what we got us here, Cap'n Levi." She said slinging an arm around Levi's shoulders as he walked to the table and sat on his lap. He was only slightly known at this port, he had visited it several times with his crew. The wench motioned for a Tavern maid to bring the two of the men a tankard of ale. "So, who's this pretty boy ye got here with ye Cap'n?" She asked.

Levi wrapped an arm around the woman, looking over her a few times making sure to get a good look at her breasts that were practically shoved into his face and took the tankard of ale as it was handed to him. "Oh, this is Eren. A new crew member of mine, just joined a couple of days ago."

Levi took a big gulp of the ale, drinking a few more tankards of ale as a the moments passed and became more handsy with the wench. Some of his men already getting down to business with their tavern wenches.

Eren took a few tentative sips of his ale, finding the taste a bit off, but not as bad as the drink from the previous night. The brunet saw how Levi eyed the woman in his lap, a small coil of jealousy making its way in his stomach. In the back of his mind a voice screamed that he wanted to be in the woman's place, but ignored it. He hid his look of minor disgust by taking another swig of his ale before greeting the woman. "Pleased to meet you ma'am." He said, keeping a calm tone to his voice.

He ignored the sight next to him in favor of looking around the tavern. The mermaid saw other members of the crew being more handsy with other women. He noticed the women wearing interesting things on their legs and made a mental note to ask Levi about it later. For now, he had a better idea as he saw some of the other men kissing women.

Eren turned back to Levi and the wench, putting on a complete air of innocence. "Hey Levi, why are they eating their faces?" He asked in a whisper loud enough for him and the woman in his lap to hear.

Levi was surprised by the sudden question and about choked on the chug of ale he just took. Setting his tankard down he looked over at Eren. "They are not eating each others faces, they are kissing." He looked back at the wench and ran a hand up her bodice to her neck, cupping the back of her head and brought it down to him. "Here, I'll show you." He said and brought his lips to hers in deep wet kiss.

The wench leaned into the kiss, making sure Eren got a good look at their tongues rubbing together. After a moment she pulled away from Levi, giving him a smile and a playful smack on the shoulder. "You're such a dog, cap'n."

The brunet had not expected that. For Levi to kiss the wench right in front of him, making the jealousy grow in him, but Eren didn't let it show. He only made a small pout. "I can see what they're doing and how they're doing it. I wanna learn how to do it too." He said, taking another drink of his ale.

Eren thought of something, knowing there was only a small chance that it would work in his favor. He knew exactly how to kiss since he and his friend Armin used to practice with each other when they were younger for when they found someone to be with. The mermaid turned to Levi again, keeping the air of innocence he had when he first brought up the subject. "C-can you teach me how to kiss, Levi?" He asked, making sure he kept his eyes big and innocent looking.

Levi looked over at him in shock. He didn't know what to say, let alone how to react. This mermaid that he had plucked out of the ocean only just the day before was asking him to kiss him. Granted they had gotten pretty close rather quickly, but it still didn't prepare him for that question. He opened his mouth to decline but the wench spoke first.

"Oh Common cap'n, teach the poor boy to kiss." She ran a hand down Levi's chest, pulling at the loose string that was to tie the chest of his shirt together. "ye can't just let 'em go without knowin. How is he ever gonna please a lady."

Before he had a chance to think about it, he grabbed Eren by the back of the neck and brought his face close to his. "You're a little shit." With that he leaned in and touched his lips to his, gasping when he felt a slight shock when they touched.

A small gasp left the mermaids lips from surprise at feeling Levi's lips on his, having not warned the other about the small bit of electric shock. Eren let a hand rested on Levi's shoulders and the other on his waist, slightly parting his lips. The brunette slowly deepened the kiss, hoping Levi didn't mind.

As the two kissed, Eren cast a sideways glance at the wench, a small glare in his eyes as a way of telling her to back off and leave.

Levi leaned in closer to Eren, letting a small moan slip as he let his tongue slide against the mermaids. For some reason, he couldn't bring himself to let go of the boy and it confused him, it was like he couldn't get enough of him.

Removing his arm from around the waist of the tavern wench he paced it on Eren's hip and pulled him closer causing him to slid over on the bench. Shit, he was enjoying this to much, the little mermaid was a sneaky little brat, there was no way he hadn't known how to kiss when he was this good at it.

The tavern wench continued to watch the two men kiss but after she noticed them become a little more into the kiss and a glare from the younger boy she took that as her time to leave. Getting up from Levi's lap she walked away without disturbing them.

A shiver went down Eren's spine as he heard Levi's moan. The hand on the ravens shoulder made its way to the back of Levi's neck, gently holding him as the mermaid was pulled closer. After seeing the woman had left, Eren let his eyes flutter shut at the feeling of Levi's tongue against him, a small groan rumbling in his throat.

The kisses he'd shared with his friend had never felt like this and Eren enjoyed it. Occasional small sparks sent tiny jolts through both of their lips from the mermaid. He craved more of Levi's taste as it lingered on his lips as he pulled away, dizzy from the kiss.

A small blush formed on the brunette's cheeks as he brought his hands back to his own lap, eyes downcast to his hands.

Levi sat back up straight and grabbed his tankard, downing the rest of the contents before raising it for a refill and was brought one promptly. "Shitty little sneaky brat, I didn't need to teach you, there is no way you didn't know how to kiss when you kiss like that." He then noticed that his wench was gone and cursed. Glaring over at Eren, he took a large chug of his new tankard of ale.

He was quite confused, he was oddly turned on by what just happened and was sporting a very awkward semi hard-on that he was now trying to conceal by crossing his legs. He had never been with another man before, usually the only sexual urges he had were dealt with tavern wenches at port towns. He wasn't quite sure what to do with this feeling, he took another large chug of his ale to help him deal with his confusion and frustration.

Eren took a decent drink from his tankard, cheeks still red from the kiss. "I was just playing. I hadn't really expected you to actually kiss me. I.. I'm sorry." He said before finishing his ale and following Levi's example, raising his glass for another, replaced just as quick as Levi's had been.

After taking another sip, The brunet kept his head down, not knowing what to say now. He knew what he felt for the other, but didn't mean to take his joke that far. He hoped Levi wasn't to mad at him, but didn't dare ask. Attraction to anyone, despite their gender, wasn't uncommon with merfolk, but Eren forgot he was no longer with merfolk and things were different with humans.

He didn't want to make things more awkward than they were, so he kept his legs crossed as he leaned over his lower half a bit, resting his elbow in the table, to hide his half hard erection.

About an hour and a few more tankards later, Levi had loosened up immensely and had forgiven Eren in his drunkenness. He was still sporting the semi hard-on and the wench was no longer giving him any attention much to his displeasure. Looking over at Eren, he gave him a long once over, admiring the boy's body in his new clothes. Trying not very hard to not get caught staring at the skin of his chest that was exposed from the opening of the shirt. He let out a loud sigh and looked back down at his tankard. His hard-on didn't seem to go anywhere and sitting next to the mermaid, looking up and down his body, just seemed to make it worse, but he just couldn't keep his eyes off of him.

Levi let out another loud sigh and moaned as he leaned up against the mermaids side, resting his chin on the boy's shoulder and glanced up at his face before glancing at his neck, which for some reason looked very delicious.

As the two drank, Eren found he was content to just listen to the noises of the tavern, talking casually with Levi as the two became more inebriated as they drank. The mermaid's gaze wandered to Levi on more than one occasion, eyes lingering over his frame. Now that the mermaid got the chance to look at Levi more, he found the man really was handsome.

Eren was zoned into listening some of the music that was being played by a few of the crew members, clapping along with some of the others when he felt a small weight on his shoulder. He turned his head to look, blushing when he saw Levi resting his head on his shoulder. "You alright there, Levi?" He asked.

Levi looked up at him with a sultry look. He brought a hand up to toy with the strings of Eren's shirt at his chest before fishing the fabric in his hand. "I will be if you kiss me again." He said as he brought his face closer to the boys.

The brunet swallowed hard, cheeks heating up. He could smell the ale on Levi's breath as he had brought their faces closer. Eren almost gave it a second thought, but the alcohol in his system shut those thoughts down as he closed the distance, pressing his lips to the ravens in a searing kiss, hand abandoning his tankard on the table in favor of resting on Levi's hip as he turned his body more towards the others.

"Oi! Look 'ere boys. The cap'n is kissin' 'imself a mermaid!" Eren heard one of the crew members hollar, but opted to ignore it as he parted his lips, nipping at Levi's bottom lip as if silently asking for entrance.

Levi let out a groan at Eren nipping at his lip and gladly parted them for the mermaid. Leaning into the kiss more, he brought his hand down from Eren's chest to his waist and then to his hips, pulling him up onto his lap as he kissed deeper.

He had all but forgotten about the crew and everyone else in the room and completely toned out their comments and shanties. As they kissed he wrapped an arm around Eren's waist and let the other caress the boy's thigh.

A small moan left Erens lips as he was pulled into Levi's lap, straddling his hips. He let his arms drape over the others shoulders as he gently grinds his hips against the ravens, a surge of lust coiling in his stomach as they deepened the kiss.

Reaching around Eren he slid his hands down and cupped the boys ass as he ground against him, groaning loudly into the deepened kiss. Breaking the kiss he trailed his mouth down Erens neck, sucking and nipping down to his collarbone and back up. "E-Eren, we should head upstairs." Levi half whispered and half moaned into his ear, the boys grinding driving him mad.

Moaning softly as Levi cupped his ass, Eren bared his neck more for the others lips as he nodded. "That sounds like a grand idea." He said, grinding his hips against the others one last time, before pulling away, standing to let Levi stand and lead the way.

Levi stood up and grabbed the boys wrist, pulling him behind him towards the room that they were staying in for the next few days. Upon entering the room and closing and locking the door, Levi pushed the mermaid against the wall and smashed his lips back against the others.

Reaching his hands down, he tugged his shirt out from his trousers and pulled him close against him before shoving him towards the bed.

As he was shoved to the bed, Eren has gotten the hint and rid himself of his shirt, pulling Levi on top of himself as he laid back on the bed, reaching up to press a kiss to the pale expanse of Levi's neck. His hands moved to cup the others ass, pulling his hips down to Erens, aching for more friction.

Levi ground up against Eren from between Erens legs, rubbing their now very hard erections against each other though their trousers. Leaning over he placed his lips at the mermaids ear and whispered. "You're a fuck'n sexy mermaid, ya know that?" Levi continued to grind against the boy as he kissed down his neck, nipping and sucking as his hands roamed the boys chest, tweaking his nipples. "I'm gonna fuck you so hard."

The moans that came out of the mermaids mouth were like music to his ears and made him burn. He trailed a hand down and gripped the boys hardened member through his pants and bit down on his shoulder.

A bright blush tinted Erens cheeks at Levi's words and grinding. He let his head fall back against the bed as a moan escaped his lips as the others lips attacked his neck while his hands teased his hardening nubs. "Gods Levi!" He panted out, his hips bucking weakly against Levi's.

A sharp moan left Eren as Levi gripped his member and bit his shoulder, feeling a wave of pleasure crash through him as he reached his limit, cumming in his trousers. With a shaky breath, he slowly came back to his senses, he noticed Levi's hands and lips were slack against him. Hearing a faint snoring sound, the brunet turned to see Levi's face and sure enough, the man was sound asleep. "Fuck. At least one of us got to finish though." He said with a soft chuckle, not even daring to move.
