Eren:
Tutoring with Levi had gone without a hitch for the first 2-3 weeks, but by the time Tuesday of the fourth week rolled around I knew something was wrong. Levi still hadn't told me what was bothering him from that day a month ago and I could tell that it was still getting to him.
So, being the ever annoying asshole I am, I decided to ask.
"Are you okay, Levi? You don't look too happy." He looks up at me from my math textbook and glares.
"Of course I'm happy."
I smile at him. "Someone forgot to tell your face."
I expect a smirk or something but nope he's still just glaring at me.
"I don't know if you're aware but this is a tutor session, not a feeling circle." He looks back down at my text book and highlights a part that I'll have to study later.
"You just seem really sad and since you always help me out with math and stuff I thought maybe I could try to help you." I blush after I say that because, holy shit I didn't mean to say that. What was originally going through my head was along the lines of me putting my feet on the table looking all bad ass and saying, "I am aware, Levi, very aware. Now out with it."
He looks up again and takes note of my blush. A glint of amusement is shown in his grey eyes. Finally some sort of emotion.
"I thought I told you to control your hormones, brat." I sputter a bunch of incoherent syllables and my face ends up even more red than before. At my pathetic display he starts laughing. Let me say that again, Levi is laughing. Not even chuckling, he's full out howling in the seat across from mine.
More than a few glares are sent our way which I've had to ward off with a sheepish smile.
"Sorry I guess." I say awkwardly running a hand through my unruly brown hair.
He stops laughing and looks at me with the amusement still showing in his eyes before saying, "I'll tell you what happened."
I sit up straight and lean forward before signalling him to continue.
"Eager much?" I nod quickly and he laughs a little before he continues. "That day my dad had called me to tell me that my mom had some sort of heart problems and had to go to the hospital. He called me again a few days ago to tell me the surgery they'd preformed had basically backfired and they had to go back to the hospital." He shakes his head a little and then says, "It sucks enough that she's hurt, but I don't have enough money to go see her."
I get up from my seat and walk over to him. He starts to ask what I'm doing when I bend down and hug him. His body goes rigid at first, then relaxes into my touch.
I tell him about my parents and by the time our study session's over we both realize we've spent more time talking about ourselves and bonding than actually studying for my finals.
We stay an hour later than usual to do what we actually came here to do. By the time we're packing up to leave it's 7 and snowing outside. Mikasa's already texted me 10 times asking if I was okay and if I was coming home for dinner. Shit I knew I forgot something. I text her back telling her my study session ran late before clicking the invite Armin sent me to some Christmas party after finals.
Levi's done packing his bag and getting up to leave and I'm grabbing my backpack from the back of my chair when my mouth opens before my brain is even able to register it. "Hey, Levi there's a party after finals wanna come with me?"
He smirks "I don't go on dates with horny teenagers." My eyes go wide and I'm stuttering about it not being a date when my arm misses where my backpack was on the back of the chair and I accidentally push the chair to the ground and fall down with it.
Everyone's conversations are halted and yet again their eyes are on Levi and me. Well mostly me because I caused a ruckus and am currently on the ground. More than a few of the people are stifling laughs. Great.
Levi's smirking while helping me up. "Damn, kid, you really know how to make a scene." I'm sure my face by that point was bright crimson.
I push the chair back in grab my backpack and hastily stalk out the door. I'm halfway home when my phone buzzes with 2 texts from Levi:
You still coming Thursday or is your pride forever scarred?
You better come Thursday because you never told me the details of that lame ass party.
I smile and respond that I am coming Thursday.
Finals came and went but this year I actually knew more than half the shit on the tests. Thank god for Levi and Armin because without them I'd probably spend 20 minutes on trying to write and rewrite my name in different fonts and then then another 30 minutes trying to figure out the date.
I was so pumped for the party because I was showing up with a really hot college student. Suck it, Jean. Armin came over to my apartment after he got done with his tests so we could help each other pick out what to wear. Okay that sounds a little girly, but mainly he came over because I think it's okay to wear navy, black, and brown together. In my defense no ever told me you can't wear certain colors together.
I end up in dark wash jeans, converse, and a Fallout Boy t-shirt. Armin's wearing jeans, and a baby blue checkered button up shirt rolled up to his elbows. Mikasa's wearing a black and white striped sweater with black skinny jeans, flats, and her signature red scarf.
By the time we pick up Levi the party's been going on for 30 minutes. Oh well, fashionably late they say. Levi's main dorm door opens and he walks out. I'm pretty sure my mouth drops open because HOLY SHIT HE LOOKS HOT. I mean uh, he looks nice. Very nice. He's wearing Doc Martin's with really fucking tight skinny jeans, a Pierce the Veil t-shirt and on top of all that badass-ness he's wearing a leather jacket.
He hops in the back with me and Armin drives us to the party. Mikasa ends up drilling Levi with various questions about himself while Armin tries to make small talk. We end up having to park two blocks away because of the huge swarm around the house and the fact that all the possible places to park are taken.
We find a place to park after driving around the area for five minutes. When we get inside i head straight for the kitchen with Levi to grab a few drinks for the four of us but it seems Mikasa has vanished somewhere, probably with Annie, and Armin is hanging around Jean and Marco. So that leaves me and Levi. Alone. I open a bottle on the edge of a table and give him one before I open the next one for myself and take a sip.
After his third drink, Levi starts speaking fluent French and because I was so drunk off my ass I popped an awkward boner from the way his voice got deep when sounding out the syllables.
At some point during our fourth drink he took his leather jacket off and tried to make it into a hat to put on my head. When that didn't work he kind of just threw his jacket on my head to make a tent, which according to him is much better than a hat.
Jean stopped by at one point to tell me that I'd obviously paid Levi to come to this party with me because according to him, it was practically impossible for me to ever get a date of any kind to which I responded, and I quote, "Go back to, Freckled Jesus." He got confused after that and decided to leave me alone for the remainder of the party.
Towards the end of the night, Levi had tried to teach me French but the only thing that stuck was how to say fuck which was merde. Even though that was only word I'd managed to learn, I knew I would put that knowledge to good use.
Armin and Mikasa found us on the back porch and somehow herded us back into the car in under 15 minutes. The car ride was filled with Armin telling us about who had made out (Jean and Marco, Christa and Ymir, and Sasha and Connie) and who officially became couples (Reiner and Bertholdt, and Mikasa and Annie.) Mikasa was blushing the whole way to Levi's dorm.
He stumbled out of the car and I followed him to the main door. He was saying something about doing this again and shit like that but I wasn't listening because all I could think of was how nice it would be to kiss him.
He starts walking in the building when I grab his arm and pull him back. His eyes are wide with curiosity but then change into something I can't really decipher but that's all pushed into the back of my head. All I know is that my brain isn't working but my body sure fucking is because the next thing I know my lips are on his.
