Levi x Eren (Pairing)

Chapter 4: A Problem?


Levi's POV

I let out a huge sigh of frustration and let my back rest against the cold brick wall. Why do you always have to apologize you little brat. I took my phone out of my pocket and my eyes widened.

One miss call – Caller ID – Erwin Smith

Next day…

Why did he even call me? I asked myself while staring at phone. "You sure like to stare at your phone for a long period of time." Petra intrudes my thoughts. I looked up at her like I was lost and confused. "Are you okay? You seem to be… kind of down I guess?"

I shook my head trying to get my head back in the game. "I am totally… fine." I muttered.

"Yeah… right? Did something happen between you and what was his name again… Eren?" Petra asked.

"No, nothing happened between me and that brat… something did surprisingly happen after us separating though." I made the word, "did" pop out the most.

"Which is? I mean you don't really have to talk about it, but if you want to then by sure all means you can." Petra lifted her hands up in lost.

I frowned at her, "Erwin called me last night after Eren dropped me off at my house."

Petra let out a little laugh trying to hold in, "Eren.. walked you home? Pfft."

"Okay, shut up Petra that is not funny!" I scowled at her.

"Oh come on, truth to be told it is totally funny. I think it's because you're short… so-"

"Don't even go that far… Petra." I gave her a warning. She stopped and got serious as I let out a sigh.

"What would Erwin want with you this time?" Petra changed the subject.

"That's what I wanted to know… but at the same time I don't even want to know." I told her. I heard the door slammed shut, as I eyes gazed at the door and I saw Eren. Oh right… I totally forgot that I contacted him to meet me here to do the next photoshoot, shit.

"Wanted to know what exactly?" Eren asked. I sat up while putting my phone in my back pocket, as I walked towards to Eren and ruffled his hair.

"Nothing brat let's just get started on the photo-shoot." I told him, as I walked towards the back room. Eren followed silently and obediently. "Petra, do you mind if you get him ready up for the next photo-shoot?"

Petra walked in, "Of course, that's what I'm here right?" Giving me a look I returned an obnoxious look at her. "Come on Eren let's get you ready." She told Eren and she was pushing him out of the room. I let out a sigh… I've been sighing for the past three days already… or maybe more than that. God dammit, why does life have to be difficult or maybe it's just me making it difficult for me to understand anything?

"Look Levi doesn't he look so adorable?" I was interrupted by Petra's voice. I looked towards my right finding Eren dressed up in a white collared shirt, black vest and slacks, his hair was gelled to the back, and he was wearing glasses.

"Not adorable at all." I teased. Eren just shrugged and Petra just got pissed off.

"Oh, come on Levi! I took my time with making this look! You could at least be considerate." Petra cursed at me. I looked away and looked at Eren again, as he was standing uncomfortably.

"Alrighty… He's not adorable, but he looks good." I had to admit he was classy. If he were to dress like this all day long I wouldn't mind at all.

"That's better now let's get things done shall we?!" Petra shouted with joy. I managed to roll my eyes and got my camera ready. Eren walked on the white cloth of sheet and stood there not knowing what to do.

"Uh… what should I do?" Eren asked.

I clicked my tongue, "I want you to imagine that you're the rich clean guy out there."

Eren nodded I response as he bent his left leg and lifted up his right wrist trying to fold the white collared shirt. I looked through my viewfinder and took a couple pictures. How can I hardly reject this guy? He switched position arranging his neck tie, as I switched angles and took a couple of more pictures.

"He really is a natural isn't he?" Petra asked me.

"Tell me about it." I responded, as I took just a bit more of picture. I was going to demand Eren to sit and pose, but someone barged in and wrapped their arms around me. What in the world?

"I missed you."

I nudged the person behind me, as he grunted. I turned around finding the person I didn't want to see in my life or never… never ever want to hear his name again; Erwin Smith.

"Erwin, what are you doing here?" I snapped at him.

"I was going to tell you that I was going to visit you today." Erwin responded. That's the reason why he called…

"Didn't I told you that I-"

"I don't want to see you again and never ever show my face to you." He recited the same words I told him a year ago. "I know… I know, it's just that I can't bring myself to losing you and not seeing you for a year."

"Well for fuck sake Erwin… If you remembered then you should just at least-" Erwin grabbed my arm and pulled me into a deep kiss, as I pushed him away. "What are you doing you bastard?"

"Go ahead and curse me I don't care. I know I made a mistake… it was a mistake. After, the incident I realized that I could never bring myself to losing you." Erwin's word was sentimental, but hurts like hell.

I stood there not knowing what to do with him, "Uh… May I ask what's going on here?" I heard Eren asking, as he stood beside me.

"Shut up, brat…" I muttered.

Erwin ignored Eren as he looked at me with serious eyes, "Please, just give me one chance and if I ruin it once more time… You can go ahead and do whatever you want with me and I won't ever show my face to you again."

I made a fist with my left hand and bit my lips. Why does he have to appear all of a sudden? Why does love have to be so difficult at some times, but yet addictive? Just what is love anyways? I looked at Eren as I grabbed Eren's hand and looked straight back to Erwin. I definitely don't want to see him again.

"Sorry, I have to reject your offer. I'm dating someone…" I told Erwin, as I looked at Eren. "I'm dating this brat, Eren Jaeger." I looked at Erwin's reaction it was still the same. What is he thinking? Eren looked at me with a confused look wanting to say something, but I decided to let him keep his words in his mouth by pulling him for a kiss. After the kiss broke off Eren blushed madly as a strawberry damn right I have the rights to call him a strawberry.

"… I see I was hoping you'll still give me a chance." Erwin accepted the fact.

"Even though I did give you a chance apparently you would still do the same mistake with what you've done to me." I gripped Eren's hand without noticing.

"I see… I would come back next time and make you fall in love with me again. No matter what you think of me I'll show you that I've learned and changed." Erwin said with confidence.

"No one can ever change that easily, Erwin." I told him. Erwin just looked at me and just gave a slight nod as his response of goodbye. He walked out of the room and with that said it was over. I was there standing and letting out a sigh.

"Uh… Levi… you're still holding my hand." Eren broke the silence. I got back in the world and let go of his hand.

"I… I'm sorry about that holding hand and kissing thing." I apologized to him like a coward.

"… Its fine I mean I was quite shock, but… what was the reason behind it?" Eren asked.

"Love affair shall I say…?" Petra stepped in.

"Oh, shut up Petra like you know everything." I hushed Petra and gave her a cold stare.

I looked at Eren with sad eyes and gave a slight smile, "That guy that just left his name is Erwin and we use to have thing for each other or shall I say… we used to date…"
