It was early morning and still dark out when they were all checked into the hotel. Eren was amazed at their room. When you first walked in through the door, there was a small living room and connected was a bedroom. Eren walked into the bedroom and saw that a large bathroom was connected to it.

He went back to the living room to find that Levi was already on the couch with the papers spread out on the coffee table.

"Aren't you going to get some sleep?" Eren asked.

"I'm just going to finished reading over these papers. You go ahead, I'll join you in a bit,"

Eren frowned but walked back to the bedroom. Levi had only slept for about an hour on the plane, surely he couldn't function on only that. But nonetheless he stripped down to his boxers, pulled back the covers and got into the bed. He wanted to stay awake and wait for Levi but the bed was so soft and comfortable that he found himself dozing off.

Two hours later, Levi heard Eren yawn from the direction of the room and turned around. He smiled at how cute his boyfriend looked. He had a white sheet wrapped around himself, and he was rubbing one of his eyes. Levi wanted to take him in his arms and smother him with kisses because of how cute he looked, but he was still going over the papers.

"Levi," Eren whined as he made his way to sit next to him, immediately resting his head on the older's shoulder, "I thought you were going to come when you were done,"

Levi spoke softly, he knew Eren was still half asleep, "I'm not done yet,"

"I think you are," Eren grabbed Levi's hand and made an effort to pull him away.

Levi chuckled at the lack of strength, "Eren, sweetie, why don't you go back to bed?"

"Are you going to come with me?"

"In a bit,"

Eren looked at Levi, pouting, "that's what you said last time,"

Levi smiled at Eren, he was so cute when he was sleepy. He quickly decided he liked sleepy Eren more than drunken Eren.

Levi reached for a paper with the hand that wasn't in Eren's and began to read it, but Eren was tracing an invisible pattern on his arm and he couldn't concentrate.

At some point Eren sighed and snuggled closer to Levi. Levi shivered, he hadn't realized he was cold.

Eren suddenly sat up straight which surprised Levi. He took the papers from Levi's hand and set them on the table, not that Levi tried to stop him. Then he gripped the edges of the sheet in his hands and straddled Levi's lap, wrapping the sheet around both them. Levi could feel the instant warmness.

Levi wrapped his arms around Eren, Eren hissed at Levi's cold hands, but protested when he pulled them away. Eren kissed his cheek before laying his head on his shoulder and then squirmed around until he got comfortable. Levi heard him let out a content sigh. He wrapped his arms tighter around Eren.

Levi couldn't quite explain how much he cared for Eren. He wanted to protect him from anything that could hurt him. He didn't want anyone else to touch him. He wanted nothing more than to stay cuddled with Eren for as long as he could. He missed him as soon as he left, and he felt lonely without him. Levi craved his presence. He had never cared for anyone as much as he cared about Eren. He showed his soft side to him, which was something that took him months to do with Erwin and Hange. He was always so closed off with everyone, but he felt he could open up to Eren.

He kissed Eren's head, lingering a bit. He loved Eren's natural scent, it was like cinnamon and lavender. Two scents that didn't seem like they would make sense together, but they were perfect for Eren. Eren was perfect.

Levi cherished this moment. The way Eren felt in his arms and the way their bodies pressed against each other. Eren's soft breaths against his neck and the way he his arm had let go of the cheek and was now on Levi's other shoulder. He pressed his cheek against Eren's temple, closing his eyes and breathing in the scent of Eren. He said three words he never thought he would say out loud to anyone.

"I love you."

I have to say I really enjoyed writing this chapter. I know the lengths of the chapters are inconsistent but I just write until I reach a point where I'm satisfied with what I have and I usually upload as soon as I finish writing. So I apologize if that bothers anyone, but it's just how my writing works.

But I hope you guys like this chapter. I've been having so much fun writing this story. I'm not sure how many more chapters it will have but I have some things that I know I want to happen so there will still be AT LEAST two or three more chapters.

I love reading your reviews so please leave me your thoughts! C:
