So I have three chapters to post that are finish. I decided since school is starting soon I'm just gonna reward you guys with yet another chapter early. Enjoy! Also...
That awkward moment when you have to add the word fisting to the dictionary on your computer, but your phone knows the word...
"Eren, I'm never letting you go back to the survey corps! I'm not risking you dying on me again!" Mikasa demanded. Eren shook his head weakly.
"No, Mikasa, you won't. It's where I belong," Eren said. Armin nodded his head in agreement.
"But you got hurt, Eren. Next time a titan gets its hands around you, you won't be so lucky."
"Mikasa, I'd understand if Eren wanted to leave the survey corps, but he doesn't so just let him do what he loves to do," Levi said, a bit annoyed by the woman. She wanted to be in the survey coprs with Eren, but decided it was best to quit once she and Armin got serious.
"Levi is right, dear," Armin said to his lover. He touched her arm, but she shook it off and glared at Levi.
"This is all your fault. If you would've killed that titan faster, he wouldn't be like this!"
"Don't you think I wish that I did? I want him to be alright just as much as you do!" Levi shouted back. Armin tried to get between them, only to be pushed back.
"Why are you even here? You don't love him so get out and let his family handle him!"
"Guys, stop it. You'll get kicked out if you fist fight here in a hospital room," Eren said. His voice was weak from the heaviness of his chest, but loud enough for them to hear. They both looked over at him and step away from each other. After finally getting Mikasa calmed down and convincing her to let him stay in the scout legion, Eren asked to be alone with Levi so they could talk. Of course, Mikasa refuse and almost blew a gasket, but Armin got her to leave.
"What's up?" the raven asked. Eren patted his hand on a spot next to him on the bed.
"Come sit," Eren said. His voice was weak, but firm. Levi did as he was told. "I wanted to talk about my living arrangements with you."
"Why? Are you planning on moving out right after you heal?" the brunette grit his teeth, swallowed his pride, and continued on.
"No, that's not it. I wanted to know if I could stay indefinitely."
"Eren, you know you don't have to ask me that. My answer will always be yes to that," Eren pursed his lips and reached his limp hand out to touch Levi's.
"That's not all I wanted to talk about," Levi looked down at their hands, then back up at Eren, heart pounding just as much as the brunette.
"Levi, you made me feel like total shit when you left. You didn't even leave a letter or stay a bit longer to say goodbye. I guess maybe that was your pride preventing you from doing it or it was too painful. But our second time meeting would've gone smoother if you did."
"Eren, I'm sorry for not considering your feelings when I did that, but it hurt too much to say goodbye. That's why I left. I guess I didn't want you to see me the way I was when I had to leave," Levi attempted to intertwine their fingers, but the brunette refused to let him, and pulled his hand away.
"I don't know if I'll be able to fully forgive you for what you did, but I'm willing to try and get back together under one condition," Levi silently nodded. Eren could see a glint of happiness under the blank mask he kept in his eyes. "If I want to leave, you have to help me get a place of my own," a small smirk formed on the raven's lips.
"Is that really all? I expected something along the lines of more house decorations or I have to make you food anytime you want it."
"Asshole, those are already included in my package and you know it," the brunette smiled the weak smile he could. Levi smiled a genuine smile, teeth showing and everything, and brought his lips closer. Eren shut his eyes and winced back to keep his lips away, but found that the raven wasn't aiming for his lips.
Eren felt the warm lips press onto his forehead. He opened his eyes blushed slightly. The male separated his lips from the brunette's forehead and instead replaced it with his own forehead.
"Thank you, Eren."
"For what?" the younger male asked.
"For giving me another chance."
For the next month, Eren laid around the house while Levi took care of him. Mikasa came over to help when Levi had to work, or Armin when she couldn't. The brunette was fascinated by how gentle and kind Levi had actually become. It was honestly weird for him, and he purposely tried pissing the guy off to see if he'd go back to being his ignorant self. But no matter what he tried, the asshole never faltered. Finally the brunette said "Just yell at me already!" and Levi just shook his head at him.
After that, Levi did return to his normal self verbally, but stayed gentle and never once tried kissing or doing anything to Eren. He did have his moments with him, but no advances were taken since the brunette was still injured.
One whole month after the incident, Eren was allowed to go back to work, but Levi didn't allow him to kill any titans just yet. Eren was forced into doing daily combat training (sparring) with Levi in the back yard of their house until he thought he was good enough to go back out there.
During the training, Levi made it clear that he wasn't going to hit him in the torso, but did everything else to knock him over. Their last training session ended pretty awkward.
"Come on, Eren. You need to be quicker than that," the raven said. Eren tried kicking the man again at the same spot, but failed. He was getting really tired, panting hard, but refusing to back down. Levi knew that even if he asked, Eren wouldn't stop until he got a good hit on the man. He was always like this. Eventually, he'd tire himself out until he collapsed to the ground.
This time, Eren tried a new tactic to get a hit on him. He dropped to his knees, holding his rib cage.
"Fuck..." he said weakly. Levi fell right into his trap, rushing to his side to see what was wrong.
"Eren, is it your rib cage again?" Levi asked. Eren nodded his head, internally smirking as he swept his feet around, knocking the raven off his feet. He was sent forward and grabbed onto Eren, pushing them both to the ground. Levi groaned and pushed himself up with his hands. He opened his eyes and saw exactly what had happened when he fell. He was on top of Eren, and he had one leg between both of the brunette's.
Eren got really flustered at how turned on he was at the moment, but found himself laughing anyway.
"I finally got you," he said.
"You little shit," Levi said, smirking slightly at how sly Eren really was. Then it got really quiet as Eren's laughter died down and they were staring into each other's eyes.
"Y-you can get off me now," the brunette said, but Levi just stared at him. The raven put a gentle hand to the younger male's cheek, and slowly moved in, closing the distance between them. He stopped an inch before their lips met, and slowly climbed off him, leaving the brunette laying there stunned.
(Did he just almost kiss me? Why did he stop? Did he think I was going to reject him?)
Levi looked back down at him.
"I think you're ready to kill titans again," was all he said before heading back into the house.
"YES!" Eren shouted, jumping to his feet and fisting the air victoriously.
*Levi's POV*
"Come on, Eren. You need to be quicker than that," I said. Eren was trying his hardest to get a hit on me, I knew that. But he was getting tired. I knew he'd collapse to the ground in a heap of gross sweat and pants soon. The brunette tried to kick me on my side, but I quickly blocked it. Before I knew it, though, he was dropping to the ground, holding the side of his chest where he had it broken. I immediately stepped towards him and leaned over to get a better look as best I could.
"Fuck..."
"Eren, is it your rib cage again?" Eren nodded his head and the next moment, I'm being swept off my feet, falling forward onto him. I ended up taking him own with me, and groaned at the annoyance of what just happened. I propped myself up on my hands and looked down to see that I was in the most awkward position I could possibly be in. My left leg was wedged between his, and I was looking directly down at the flustered face he had.
(Fuck, I never thought we'd be in this position again.)
The brunette started laughing out of nowhere.
"I finally got you," he said, looking very confident.
(Did he just trick me?)
"You little shit," I gave him my signature smirk. Eventually, Eren's laughter stopped and we were left just gazing at each other in silence until he finally broke it.
"Y-you can get off me now." he said, I was almost temped to. But something told me to kiss him right there. My hand moved on its own, cupping his cheek I adored so much. I leaned forward, just about ready to kiss him.
(Stop, he might not want that.)
Just as I thought that, I stopped in my tracks. I kept quiet as I got off him and stood up. I looked down at him, seeing how flustered and shocked I left him and knew it was the right choice to wait just a bit longer.
"I think you're ready to kill titans again," I said, and started walking back into the house. I could hear the brunette screaming behind me.
"YES!"
(He may be a grown man, but he's still such a kid sometimes.)
I shook my head at the fact that I'd actually fallen in love with such a childish man.
(But I wouldn't trade him for anyone else, even if his sister is a crazy bitch.)
How do you guys feel about Eren getting possibly drunk and possibly screwing around with Levi in the next chapter? I promise you there are funny parts and serious parts in it so the next chapter is well rounded.
