The moment Levi came back to consciousness the next morning he instantly became aware of how absolutely filthy he was. He could feel the left over sweat coating him like a second skin. He could smell the musky scent of BO and hell it was so freaking nasty. Eww. Eww. Eww. Levi pried Eren's limbs off of him in a frantic state and scrambled out of the bed. He practically ran to his shower. He paced impatiently outside of the shower curtain waiting for the water to heat up. Over and over he stuck his hand under the spray testing it. It wasn't even hot by the time he was jumping under the torrent of clean clean soothing water. A relieved sigh escaped him as he felt the filth being removed from his pale toned body.
After quite a long time in the shower, Levi finally tore himself away. It was hard though. Levi loved his beautiful clean shower. He wrapped a fluffy white towel around his waist and stepped back into the bedroom. Eren had rolled over and the sheets were wound tightly in his legs. Levi made the tiniest of sour faces. His poor innocent sheets were getting up close and personal with a sweaty and dirty crotch. He might even have to wash them twice. He was so tempted to kick Eren out of his bed, so he could clean it this very instant, but a glance at the clock changed his mind. It was only 4:47 in the morning. They had maybe only gotten a total of about 3 hours of sleep. He just couldn't bring it in himself to wake the beautiful man in his bed. His sheets and pillows would just have to suffer through the filth and drool.
He could however take his time to stare at the man in his bed and oh for pete's sake it gave him all these warm little fuzzy feelings that he wasn't used to feeling. He crept up to the bed and ran his fingers through Eren's messy hair. Eren made a pleasant sigh in his sleep and buried his adorable face further into the extra fluffy pillow below it. Levi could have this brat in his bed for the rest of the eternity and be content. Even if the brat was filthy and stinky. With one more little loving caress to that soft cheek, Levi turned around and proceeded to pick up their dirty clothes that were spread throughout his immaculate house. He paused hesitantly in front of the washing machine. Was it weird to wash his clothes with Eren's? He shrugged and tossed everything in. It wasn't like he didn't already have his dick all up in that cute little bum.
He spent the next couple of hours in his office in the basement working through different case files with a steaming cup of coffee. At 6:30 he ventured back upstairs after throwing the clothes into the dryer to watch some morning news on TV. At 7:00 he peeked back in on the man in his bed and found him in the exact same position sleeping like a bear in hibernation. At 7:30 he folded. He was bored and lonely. He wanted to be spending his time talking to Eren not just watching him sleep and petting his hair. At 7:30 he started cooking breakfast. He figured Eren would have a sweet tooth, so waffles it was. He cut up some strawberries and laid a couple of strips of bacon in a pan.
A little before 8:00 he went to go wake up his sleeping beauty. His attention was stolen from the brunette to the brunette's phone buzzing on the dresser where he had left it with Eren's wallet. An adorably sweet picture of Mikasa burying her face in a red scarf flashed on the screen. Levi hit the silence button and let it ring all it wanted silently until it hit voicemail. He started his journey back to wake the Snorlax in his bed, but his own pocket started ringing. Levi fished it out of his pocket and saw Mikasa's name flash across his screen. Maybe giving her his number hadn't been the best idea. He let out a sigh and regretfully walked out of his bedroom to deal with the cock destroying woman.
"Hello Mikasa" Levi greeted neutrally has he went back into his kitchen. Might as well set the table while he was busy on the phone.
"Hello Levi" Mikasa replied coldly.
"What can I help you with this early in the morning?" Levi said as he set two plates down on his dark oak table.
"Well see this morning I woke up and my brother never came back with our friends last night. Not only that, I had to listen to Jean complain obnoxiously about Eren ditching them for a short little grouchy shit with black hair. Now I hate to jump to conclusions, but is Eren with you right now?"
Levi set down some forks next to the white ceramic plates. "Yes."
Oh there is that lovely little growl. "See that's funny because I was under the assumption that you wanted to keep your dick."
"Well you are correct in that assumption" Levi replied as he set down two glasses in the spot above the plates.
"Levi" Mikasa started in a thoroughly 'I'm done with your shit' tone. "I thought I warned you about using my Eren."
"Yes you did. Here's the thing sweet little cousin of mine, I'm not planning on using Eren. I'm planning on dating him." Levi set down the covered plate of waffles and syrup as silence fell on the other line of the phone. It stretched long enough for him to add the strawberries, a can of whip cream and bacon on the table. Hell it even stretched long enough to start another pot of coffee. He had already gone through the two servings it held. "Still alive over there?"
"Yeah…" Mikasa said slowly. "I'm just deciding if I still want to cut your dick off."
"If I have a vote in this decision, I vote against it. Listen Mikasa, your brother is special and I like him. You can't shelter him forever from the dating realm no matter how much you want to." Levi walked into his bathroom and started filling the tub with warm water.
He heard Mikasa make a little huffing noise. "I just don't want him to get hurt…"
"Well good. That makes two of us then. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to get your lazy brother out of my bed, so we can have a pleasant breakfast. I promise to bring him home intact eventually today."
"Just please don't hurt him Levi" Mikasa pleaded softly.
"Alright. We'll see you later." Levi stood up from the side of the tub and started walking to his bedroom.
"Yeah bye" Mikasa said in a grouchy little tone.
Levi put his phone back into his pocket and glanced down Eren. He nudged his shoulder. "Eren time to get up."
Eren made a disgruntled little noise and rolled over onto his stomach causing the sheet to slip enticingly down his bare ass. Levi trailed his fingers down Eren's spine and when he got to the edge of the sheet he pulled it down lower to get a very nice view. A little wave of tingling feelings exploded inside of him landing in his groin. Fuck. He could spend every morning like this. He crawled onto the bed next to Eren and leaned in next to his ear as his fingers continued to run paths on Eren's filthy body. "Wake up Eren…" he whispered into Eren's ear before pulling it between his teeth gently.
Eren groaned and turned his head away from Levi freeing his ear from further torture. Levi sat back on his heels and stared at the zombie in his bed. His eyes landed on those plump little cheeks. Hmm…slap that ass or tickle the living fucking hell out of him? Levi smirked deviously as he ran his hand slowly over Eren's ass. Even though it was tempting, he didn't want to wake Eren up that painfully. Tickling it was. Levi trailed his fingers up to Eren's side with feather light touches. He let them rest there a moment. "Eren get up." After no response, Levi buried his fingers deep and tickled without mercy.
Oh did Eren wake up to that. His body jerked violently as he swore and squealed. Levi smirked. It was so freaking cute. Eren tried to roll away from Levi, but only got tangled more in the sheet and couldn't free himself. When he got to the edge of the bed he fell off and landed hard on the bedroom floor with an oomph. Levi peeked over the top of the bed. "You awake down there sleeping beauty?" And oh god did Levi love the little death glare he was receiving from violent green eyes.
"Fuck you" Eren said grouchily.
"Might want to eat breakfast first before going another round" Levi teased. He climbed off the bed and reached his hand out to help Eren to his feet.
Eren slapped his hand away and used the bed to pull himself up. His face scrunched as he got to his feet and tried to take a step. "Shit. My lower back hurts."
Levi gave him an amused look. "I ran you a bath and can carry you there if you can't walk."
Eren was still glaring at him. "I can walk" he growled out.
"You sure?" he asked as he let his eyes run down Eren's naked body. Hell it was beautiful. Eren noticed and quickly covered himself up with his hands. Levi looked into his face and let out a chuckle at the red blush that was slowly spreading on those tan cheeks. He quirked an eyebrow.
"S-shut up and just show me where the bathroom is."
Levi nodded and walked to the bathroom without looking back. He didn't have to. He could here Eren's uneven steps and grumblings. He opened the bathroom door and gestured Eren in. Eren's eyes looked around his bathroom with a little awe. Levi felt a little bubble of pride pop in him. Yeah. His bathroom was freaking amazing and clean, so wonderfully clean.
Eren proceeded to climb awkwardly into the bathtub. Where the hell did all that gracefulness go Levi wondered? Even without it, Eren was still just enthralling. He let out a pleasant sigh and his eyes fell closed as he tilted his head back. Levi walked over to the little basket next to the tub. He fished out an orange and pink bath bomb. He tossed it into the water and Eren made a little noise of surprise before bursting out laughing.
"Fuck Levi that startled me" he said between giggles as his fingers trailed patterns in the fizzing orange and pink bubbles. Levi couldn't tear his eyes away from Eren's extremely happy face as the room filled with a citrus smell. It was perfect. The way his eyes crinkled when he laughed and the wide toothy grin. All those warm little fuzzy feelings inside of him were threatening to consume his very being. He reached out and ran his fingers through Eren's hair softly. Eren looked up at him with those shimmering happy greens and Levi felt like he was turning into a puddle of goo. He leaned forward and Eren's smile dropped just like his gaze dropped to Levi's mouth. He leaned forward quickly and closed the distance between them. Levi parted his lips just far enough to let his tongue run along the soft crease of Eren's lips just to feel them. To taste them. Eren made a pleased hum and parted his own lips. The slow exploring kiss started getting heated soon enough and Eren's fingers were buried into Levi's own hair tugging hungrily.
With more effort than Levi thought possible, he disengaged himself from Eren's mouth. Eren's grip relaxed, but he didn't release Levi. A chuckle escaped Levi and he rubbed his nose against Eren's gently. "Finish getting cleaned up and then come join me for breakfast." Levi left a parting little peck on Eren's flushed cheek before getting up.
First thing he did when he left the steamy bathroom was tear the dirty sheets off of his bed and throw them in the washing machine. He was sitting at the table sipping his cup of coffee as he watched the bathroom door that he had a clear view down the hall of. He rolled his eyes at himself. He was acting like a fucking dog waiting for its master to get home. What the hell was wrong with him? He instantly perked up however when the door creaked open and a towel clad still slightly damp Eren ventured out scratching at the back of his head.
"Uh…Levi where are my clothes?" Eren asked as he walked into the dining room.
"I washed them. You can have them back after we eat. Do you want juice? Coffee?" Levi asked as he stood up from the table.
Eren plopped down on one of the chairs. "Both?" Eren asked.
An amused puff of air left Levi's nose. "Alright. Do you need creamer or sugar?"
"Both" Eren said again slightly distracted as he started looking at the plates of food with interest.
"Go ahead. Dig in and have whatever you want."
Eren grinned at him and did just that popping a piece of bacon in between his lips as he piled his waffle with strawberries, syrup and so much fucking whip cream. Levi was right that Eren very much had a sweet tooth. He also made mental note of how much creamer and sugar Eren put into his coffee, so next time he would be able to do it for Eren. They chatted excitedly as they ate. Well Eren chatted excitedly. Levi just listened to him. He was pretty sure Eren could be talking about taking the biggest smelliest shit in the world and it would still sound wonderful.
When they were finished, Eren helped clear the table and load the dishwasher. He stood awkwardly next to the couch where Levi had settled once they were done. "Uh…Levi can I have my clothes back now?"
Levi's eyes flickered up at him and trailed over his towel clad body one last time. "I suppose" he said dispassionately. He opened the door to his basement to go get Eren's clothing. Eren watched him from the top of the stairs. "You can come down here too if you wanted."
"Are you sure you don't have some prison chamber down there that you'll lock me in the moment I set foot on that floor?" Eren called down in amusement.
"You'll never know if you don't come down here" Levi called back. He smiled to himself when he heard Eren's graceful gate down the stairs. He glanced long enough to see Eren's eyes raking over everything.
"You know Levi, you have a really fucking kick ass house" Eren said with awe as he walked into Levi's decently sized laundry room.
"Thanks" Levi said as he tossed Eren his boxers. He waited to toss anymore clothes as he wanted to watch those slim hips wiggle into those tight little briefs.
Eren absentmindedly started slipping them on, but paused and his eyes flickered up into Levi's face. "Do you mind?" Eren asked with some exasperation.
"No I don't. Please feel free to carry on" Levi said back with a hand gesture to continue.
Eren rolled his eyes and tore his towel off chucking it at Levi's face. Levi caught it with a laugh. When he glanced back at Eren, he already had his briefs on. Wow. That was quick. Levi was still laughing as he tossed Eren his remaining clothes.
They were sitting on couch playing some video game that Levi hadn't touched in years, but Eren insisted they play when he saw it. Levi didn't mind. Not at all. It was actually quite fun. Especially listening to Eren's laughter and swearing. It was after a particular bad loss that had Eren flopping down across the couch in defeat. His head landed on Levi's lap and he was gazing up into Levi's amused face. Levi set the controller down and ran his fingers across Eren's cheek and jaw. They were just trailing against those kissable lips when Levi's doorbell burst their pleasant little bubble.
"You should go see who's at the door" Eren said casually right before he rolled his face into Levi's stomach and bit it.
Levi made a surprised noise. He pushed Eren off of him chuckling as he stood up to see what obnoxious pest was ruining his perfect day. The door opened smoothly without a squeak revealing one of the most annoying people Levi knew. "Of course it's you…" he said with an eye roll.
"Just want to make sure you're alive after partying all night long" Hanji said cheerfully as she pushed her way past Levi. "Plus you make the best coffee."
Levi tried to grab at her and push her back out the door. "Now is not a good time. Please leave me in peace Shitty Glasses."
Hanji dodged his grasp and strode into the living room with a purpose. She needed coffee like right now. Her journey to the kitchen halted however when she saw the brunette laying on the sofa. "Well hello there cutie. Long time no see" Hanji said with too much happiness in her voice. She practically pranced to the couch and plopped down on it. Eren had to scramble to a sitting position to avoid getting tackled in the ambush. His eyes went wide with some terror when she got all up in his personal bubble. "So please fill me in on why you're here at…" she paused to look at the watch on her wrist. "11 in the morning?"
Eren looked at Levi with pleading eyes. Levi sighed and sat on the chair next to the couch. "Eren is here because I invited him over."
"Eren? So you two are on a first name basis now huh? That must have been some lap dance…" Hanji trailed off suggestively.
Eren's flaming face had a heat creeping up on Levi's as well. "Please refrain from talking about that. Eren is more than a stripper and just so happens to be my cousin's adoptive brother. He's here because we like spending time together."
"Ohhhh… Is that so? And Levi of course Eren is more than a stripper. I mean just look at how adorable he is" Hanji beamed at them as she smooshed Eren's cheeks.
"Pleash maksher stop" Eren said. His words getting garbled by Hanji's assaulting hands.
"Oi. Let go of him Glasses and I'll make you a cup of coffee. Than you can get the hell out of here."
Hanji gave one more quick squish and release a terrified Eren. He scrambled up after Levi and followed him into the adjoining kitchen. All the main rooms were connected with decorative arches. Hanji also jumped to her feet to follow them much to Eren's horror and Levi's amusement.
Unfortunately Hanji didn't leave after her cup of coffee. Fortunately she didn't stay as long as she could have. Levi could've spent the rest of the day wrapped up in Eren, but Eren needed to get home and work on a school assignment. Oh the drag of banging someone that was still in school. Did Levi have the brief thought that Eren was too young for him? Of course he did and then he told that thought to go fuck itself.
When they pulled up to the house, Mikasa was outside with a giant trimming shears taking care of grooming the lower branches off of the tree in the front of the house. Her narrowed gray gaze locked onto Levi. She lifted the shears up to one branch and pushed the handles together causing the branch to fall to the ground with a clean cut. Levi gave her a bored look ignoring the very clear implied threat.
There were also two other obnoxious college kids outside having a squirt gun fight. Levi recognized the ponytailed brunette with chestnut colored eyes as the woman Eren had been grinding with last night. She was laughing like a maniac as she chased down a shorter boy with a buzz cut. When Eren caught their eyes they both froze mid-step and grinned at each other wickedly. Eren had his back turned to them, so he did not see his impending doom creeping up on him. Levi kept his mouth closed and watched with amusement.
Eren's screech tore through the air when ice cold water hit him. His back arched at the assault. He turned quickly on his heel to glare at the two. "Oh I'm going to get you two for that" Eren threatened in a low voice and tore after them around the house. Levi smirked at the shouting he heard coming from the backyard.
Mikasa stalked over to him. Giant shears in hand. "Levi."
"Mikasa." They stared at each other for a good couple of minutes before a thoroughly soaked Eren slunk back to the front of the house.
Mikasa glanced at her downtrodden brother and her eye twitched. She glanced back at Levi. "Don't think this is over…Now if you excuse me, I have to go do something."
After she disappeared around the corner, Levi gave an unimpressed look at the soaking man next to him. "It looks like you got your ass handed to you."
Eren huffed and folded his arms across his chest. "They played dirty grabbing the garden hose."
Levi chuckled and ruffled up his hair. "Go get dry and do your homework like a good little student. I'll text you later."
Eren swatted his hand away. "Yeah alright. Talk to you later." He started walking off towards the house. He stopped for a moment looking lost in thought. He turned back towards Levi with an evil little smirk. Levi had a feeling that he should run, but the stubborn side of him stood his ground. Eren moved faster than Levi expected and a second later he was enveloped in a wet soggy cold hug. "I had fun… Let's dance together again soon…" Eren whispered in a low tone and hell Levi didn't care about being wet anymore.
Eren was already up the stairs when Levi snapped out of his little daze and became aware of just how wet Eren made him. "Oi! I'll make you regret getting me wet Eren" he called after the laughing brunette that just sent a wave behind his back.
x-o-x-o-x
Levi endured a Monday morning of Isabel gushing over the fact that he took Eren home on Saturday night. She also begged him to invite Eren to the wedding because she thought they were adorable together and wanted Levi to find all that lovey dovey happiness. Of course Levi refused. It would just be weird. He had literally only known Eren for less than two weeks and barely at that. Yeah he was a little infatuated, but that didn't mean he wanted to metaphorically bring Eren home to meet the family this soon. It was just too soon. They hadn't even gone on a real date yet. He didn't consider a night screwing each other a date. Not even close. Dates involved fancy restaurants or walks around a pretty park. Shit like that.
He sipped on his Starbucks coffee as he casually trailed behind a suspect for the case he was working on. He kept his eyes scanning casually around and he kept his ears open. It was because of that, that he heard a very familiar laugh coming from somewhere behind the trees to the right of him. He was completely drawn to the noise like a bee to honey and he forgot about what he was supposed to be doing. With a quick glance around him making sure no one was looking, he ducked into the trees with every intention of scaring Eren. He never got the chance though because the sight before him had him stopping in his tracks confused.
Eren was sitting on a bench with Mr. Two Toned Asshole laughing. The man's arm was resting on the bench behind Eren's back and he was handing him a half-eaten bagel. Levi felt a little twinge of jealousy hit his stomach and just a tad bit of confusion. Wasn't this the same asshole that Eren wanted nothing to do with on Saturday?
"Go ahead and have it. I'm full anyways" the stupid man said as Eren grabbed the bagel. Their fingers brushing for a split second.
"Alright. If you're sure. Thanks Jean" Eren said casually. Oh so stupid horse face did have a name. Levi didn't like it.
"I can't believe you left me hanging Saturday night to go home with some short grouchy old dude. How old is he anyways?" Levi felt his eye twitch in annoyance. Yep. He definitely disliked this man.
Eren chuckled. "I have no idea and I don't give a shit. It was the best fucking sex I have ever experienced in my life."
The dickhead named Jean hit Eren's arm. "Hey fuck you too."
Eren chuckled again. "No thanks. Why would I settle for mediocre sex when I could have mind blowing sex with the hottest guy I have ever met?" Levi smirked. Yeah. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it Jean.
"God you're such an asshole. Give me my bagel back" Jean grumbled and held out his hand.
"Yeah no way in hell. I'm eating the rest of this bagel. Deal with it." Eren proceeded to claim the bagel as his own by licking all over it.
Jean made a disgusted face. "God I hate you."
"Feelings mutual."
"So I'm guessing I'm not getting any action from you for the foreseeable future?"
"Hell fucking no. Why don't you just tell Marco how you feel about him?"
"Why? Because I don't want to be rejected again. We just started being good friends and I don't want to mess it up."
"Jean it's been three years. Just tell him that you're in love with him."
"No" Jean said all grumpily.
"Fine whatever." Eren proceeded to eat the rest of the bagel while they sat in silence. "You still coming over this Saturday for game night."
"Yeah."
"Cool. I got class in fifteen, so I'll see you later."
Levi watched as Eren stood up and grabbed his school bag. He also watched as Jean's eyes lingered on Eren's cute little tushy and a disgruntled sigh escaped the horse face. That little twinge of jealousy shot right back through Levi. Oh hell fucking no did Levi want Eren spending this Saturday with Mr. Perverted Gaze. He quietly fished out his phone and did something that he said he wouldn't do. He invited Eren to Isabel and Farlan's wedding this Saturday.
Levi's eyes flickered up to where Eren had been walking. Eren had slowed down fishing his phone out of his pocket. His steps came to a stop as he read his message just like Levi's breathing stopped as he watched. Eren's hand dropped and he started taking slow steps again. Levi's stomach dropped at the lack of response. Was it really too soon? Did he just fuck up? Was Eren getting creeped out? What was going through his head?
