"Agghh" the knife slips on her hand after it glides its sharpness on her index finger. The knife hits the porcelain plates until it drops at the kitchen sink's bottom. She can feel the soaring pain rising on her nerves. It's just a small cut but because of the presence of soap from her sponge, it brought a stinging discomfort to her. She bites her lips as she can see the blood starting to drip out.
Levi stopped his strokes on the plate and hold it down. He turned to her.
"What?"
his voice was so deep with a hint of annoyance.
"It's nothing," she said and shifted her hand away from his sight,. Levi washed his hands immediately with water and grabbed her wrist.
Historia pulled her arm back from his grasp but he holds on to her refusing to let go.
"Just let me take a look." he insisted.
Historia decided not to resist as he tightened his grip on her, it was so tight that she thought her arm would break its bone.
"Your grip hurts," she replied in pain. Great, how thoughtless this man was. Trying to help but not minding his strength would kill her.
She rolled her eyes. The tightness of his grip immediately changes.
"Then stop resisting" he snarled.
Historia didn't moved her hand away as she felt that he searched for her wounded digit, she can see his frowning expression as his strong rough hands grip against her skin lightly as if not to break her.
He examined her fingertips with his serious bored face.
"You cut yourself with a knife. ." he simply said. She felt anxious as she can see the concern in his dark eyes. He's more focused on the wound on her index finger.
" it's nothing. " she tried to smile and pull her arm back but he refused to let go.
"Stay still." He said without looking at her. Her arm slightly trembled as his thumb moves to brush her palm. Then without a warning, he pulled her hands towards his mouth, aiming her wounded finger to his warm and soft lips then it slides inside his warmth and Wet mouth.
Her eyes widened as she attempts to pull her hand back but his other hand caught her arm to stop her. He just glanced at her and looked down at her extended arm. Her other free hand moves to his arm and gently presses his bicep.
"N- no." she was hesitant in touching him this way.
But he didn't listen. Her index finger was in his mouth, the pressure she felt sent a strange vibe on Historia's spine. He just sucked her open wound inside his mouth. It stung when his tongue touched the wound, She breathed hard as she stares at his nose and lips. The air that came from his nose slams on her fingertips which made her cheeks warm, She can feel him sucking on her wound while staring at his mouth. She can feel the wetness of his lips and the tips of his teeth...
Her mind was in a hurricane and her heart was beating so fast and loud that she felt her chest pulsed under her blouse. fluttering butterflies in her stomach have woken up from asleep. She found this moment so sweet and dear from a friend that she can count on always. The captain always looked out for her for the past few years, and she still wonders why she felt uncomfortable when he stays so close like this.
Her whole body freeze and she felt her feet ticklish with disbelief as his mouth moved to tend her wound. She breathes slowly on the gesture that he made to offer. His eyelashes were lowered, her eyes were roaming around his youthful face, his pointy nose, his ravened hair. She noticed the difference between their skin tone by looking at her arm and his face.
She has milky white skin with a few freckles on her arm while the Captain has pale light skin with a touch of greyish peach under his eyes. She can now spot the small faded freckles around his face. The small brown dots were on the sides of his nose, and the tip of his chin. He has thin faded lines at the sides of his eyes and sides of his nose that trailed below his eyebags.
"Y-you don't have to do that you know. It's just a small cut" she moved forward and sneak on her hand and to his mouth, and suddenly she realized how close she was to him. Her chest brushed lightly on his arm that was gripping her wrist.
She stepped back to make space between them so that none of her body brushes the ends of his flesh.
He hummed in a low tone making a sound of disagreement, but his grip on her hand didn't lose. His eyes were looking the other way and his thin lips moved slightly on sucking her index finger, she can't help but moved her digit inside his wet mouth as a sign of resistance. But he just tightened his grip on her hand.
She bit her lips as she stared at his mouth and to his cheeks and his eyes. Her hand rested at his shirt sleeves, tugging the fabric in protest.
Levi noticed her and gave her his piercing look...she turned away and put her free hand at the brink of the sink to calm herself. She can't make him let her hand go from his mouth. His mouth twitched on her wounded finger and she doesn't know how to react to this. She squeezed her thighs together under her skirt and breathed to wait.
She felt the pressure at the end of her fingertips inside his mouth, She looked at him again, making a face to beg him in letting go of her finger.
"Dun-wuk-at-we-wak-awt."
His voice was husky in a low tone, while his dark gaze was in her direction, his tongue brushed her digit inside his mouth as he tries to speak and she can feel that it's soaked with his saliva. Historia's face flushed and she just turned her head away. She hates how her face responds when he does daring things like this.
Sometimes she wanted to ask him if he felt weird by treating her like this. Being so sweet and naive towards her, the Captain must have not seen the flushness on her cheeks when he tells her that she's worth something.
"It's. . not worth it. " her restrained hands moved, the rest of her fingers moved slowly to touched the arch of his mouth. She sighed. The heat on her belly was not helping while he locked his eyes to her.
"Back off, kid." Levi slightly pulls her index finger out of his mouth just to shut her off, but he thrust it back inside his mouth again to suck on her wound. Historia's mind suddenly rumbled when her fingertips felt the dampness of his mouth.
Historia wanted to smile as she realized he looked stubborn after threatening her to back off. His hostility sometimes doesn't work on her anymore but in return, she's dumbfounded by his actions right now.
Kid. He always calls her kid whenever he felt that she's inching so close to him. To make her break away and ignore the pull that they felt for each other's presence. She can see his eyes trembling as she slowly moves her pace towards him. All this time they knew what was there between them, and historia's waiting for something that shows he's into her somehow.
She tilts her face to him just to confront the greyness of his dark eyes.
Levi's expression softened when he caught her gaze. his grip on her arm loosened. Their eyes locked together for a moment and it reminded historia of the unspoken words that the captain had inside his greyish blue eyes. Her anxiety subsides as her body tolerates the warmth that is pulling her close to the man.
She bravely moves one step forward.
Then she touched the tip of his nose lightly with her restrained fingertips. Her thumb moved awkwardly to his chin and ran up to the bottom of his thin soft mouth. Tracing the shape of his pinkish brown lip. She relaxed when he didn't wince as she caressed his lower chin.
Then he pulled her wounded finger out from his.
"What?" He groaned. His gaze is enough to blank her mind, he's empairing her senses. Her heart was beating so fast like a horse running in a race.
He closed his eyes and pressed his face to her small hand, he let her touch his cheeks, his face was calm against her flesh. His fingertips were caressing her skin behind her palms. Despite the roughness of his calloused hands, he never failed to trace her fingers with gentleness. She swallowed as he looked at her with those intimidating eyes.
she doesn't want to move away from his gaze. She wanted to confront him with her own eyes that are now whispering thousands of what-ifs. This is to let him know that she's not afraid of staring games.
Not anymore.
She wants to move closer to him.
Then like an answered prayer, he moved closer now without moving his eyes away from her gaze. Closer until their chest touched. His face was unreadable but it doesn't show any signs of hostility or disapproval. He let go of her hands and moved them both to the brink of the sink, placing her in between of his arms. He's looking straight at her now.
She felt like there' were colorful butterflies on her stomach.
She knew that the Captain looked at her this way. But she never assumes anything else.
All her assumptions were kept deep inside her consciousness.
It's part of the monkey business that they have had since three years ago. But now? She rather meets his intriguing eyes since it's expressing more feelings than his words of insulation...
he didn't look away, he can give all the burning gaze as long as he likes, though it pierces through her soul, she will withstand it. Such a powerful gaze that she thought she's willing to give him what he desires.
"Why are you blushing?" He asked
"Do you have to ask?" She said in a disturbed tone.
"Yes," His face moved closer to her face as he responds to her question. Now their nose was inches away and the first thing she put her gaze on was on his seductive mouth. She felt tempted to do something, he's leaning towards her.
The drumbeat of her heart was getting louder, she's afraid that he may hear.
"Because You are distracting me." She said while staring at his mouth. She felt his other hand moved to her hips, it stayed there, she can feel his hesitation as it landed on her like a feather. She jumped, she barely breathed.
"Am I now?" He said and looked at her entire face. She can feel him when he exhales. Her body shivers. Even his breath smells lemon and tea. Sweeter than the tea that she made and tasted from her cup not just long ago.
How much more if she. . . taste his mouth, slowly she noticed him move closer to her. As his arm bend slowly until his face was just an inch away from hers. his pointy nose touched the side of her cheeks and she wanted to jump in disbelief.
She hoped that he's not out of his mind by entering her zone this close...
She can't hold back, he made it this close and Historia doesn't want to expect that much.
She grabbed his collar and pull him but he refused to budge his chest and stayed where he was. She can feel him exhale and his face frowned against her forehead.
Oh no. If it didnt work.
He breathed sharply as he looked down on her. He paused for a moment and moved the tip of his nose. It brushed against her nose and he leaned his mouth. She shut her eyes and refused to breathe, waited for his lips to touch hers.
But it never came.
He stopped
She slowly opened her eyes and found his gaze so close to hers. His eyes were still wide open and it's staring down at her like he understands that she longed to be kissed by him.
Shit. his hand touched her neck and She just closed her eyes again so that she can feel him more. Her heartbeat speeds up, like a bird flapping her wings so hard to fly.
this is not just an imagination, her mind whispered to her. The sensation in her belly is getting worst when their knees are touched. His belt on her tummy.
Her stomach lurched and wanted to pass out.
"What the hell are you doing?."
She whispered against him. To wake them up, to cut the crap that she was expecting, to avoid getting rejectment.
He didn't respond.
Levi just kept on closing the remaining distance between them until their lips brushed each other lightly.
Light
Not pushy, not tender.
Just light as a feather, light as a hair that falls on your skin, just brush but not entirely. Just a dot and she will catch him leaning.
They are not kissing
yet
Flowers began to bloom at the corners of her ribs, All her senses stopped and it's like the time just stopped ticking. Like her world runs around him now and she can hear is her throbbing heart like she had the loudest heartbeat in the world.
"Are you afraid, Your Majesty?"
This time was in a low husky tone that only she can hear in this entire room, every syllables brushed against her lips and reach her ears like a poem. Her heart is twisting inside her. She longs for him to be more stern to her.
"I - I am. " She said and let out an annoyed sigh, her frustrated mouth twitched against his lips. Her chest rises and falls against his broad chest.
Afraid
Yes, she is.
She's afraid to be drowned in his touch, that her connection, in reality, will affect her judgment, just because this man was stirring things up.
Her hands crumpled the fabrics on his collars. Hoping he will make the next move. She wants to explore more, she wants him to open his fucking mouth, to enter his world,
And down his heart.
Then He withdraws his head back. Like she just offended him. He looked at her with confused eyes. He swallowed and she can see how his throat and jaw moved.
The definition of desire is reflecting upon his face. Historia's happy to make his face flush just like how her face turns red when she stared at the mirror thinking about him...
She wondered if he can see the same facial expression on her face.
"Then " he gestured over her hands. "Let go o me."
He tilts his head, His eyes looked at her, it's so close that she can see every detail of his irises. A dot in the center, with a Dark grey-blue surface and a black outline, long lashes. Thin eyebrows that meet at the center. There were more than what she can see in his orbs. It is like a small world with a crystal clear lake.
The world inside Levi's mind. Her dream home out of this entire cruel realm.
Will she let go? Will she end this moment?
She met his deadly gaze and shook her head, to admit."I don't want to."
Then he made a Tch sound against her mouth and
He finally kissed her
She inhaled for air in her nose as if she's going underwater.
Not light as a feather
Not hesitating
but pressed and tender
Not so rough but smooth with a blur hint of love and respect
Her eyes immediately shut as He pressed his lips to her, his hands scrambled quickly to wrap on her waist and thrust her body to his. They are both leaning at the sink now with the heavy rain outside. His tongue moved to enter her tongue and tasted her.
Her hands tighten her grip on her collars as the Captain entered his mouth from her hungry mouth.
He tasted tea and Levi Ackerman
The heat within her rose as she felt his broad chest pressed against her body. She felt safe as heaven. Like no one can ever drag her to hell outside this roof.
Something woke up in her body as their parts brushed.
She put her strength on her arms and lifted herself, at the same time, Levi picked her legs to let her seat on top of the sink as they burned in each other's kisses. He pulled her waist and placed himself between her legs, their private parts rubbed.
She tousled his hair, feeling his undercut, down to his neck, she thrust her hips to him and it just made everything burn. Her breath, her muscles, her legs and
In between.
And she's willing to get burned while his tongue entered her mouth.
Levi explored his hand on her legs, yanking the fabric of her skirt up so that he can touch her thighs. She just allowed him to get under her clothes, his touch translating his manly needs.
Then his mouth moved to her chin, down to her neck. She leaned backward and stretch her neck upward to give him access. His wet trail tingled her nerves and her mind refuse to think of other possible things within this state...
She suppressed a soft moan that she didn't expect to hear from herself before. It was so bold and daring. like she's tempting the Captain to explore on her. He went to taste her neck and moved lower.
In one blink, his hands were already unbuttoning her shirt, it took. him a moment to manage the buttons so he ripped the fabric of her clothes.
She gasped, but the Captain's mouth silences her already, his kisses were demanding and seducing that she can't think of the facts. She even forgot her name while lost in his desire to duck her.
His hands pulled her bra up so harshly and the next thing she felt was his large hands cupping her breast.
Her legs went numb as he moaned against her flushed face. His kisses were tender as his hands played her nips. He pressed his body to her and her heart flipped when she felt something hard between her legs.
She tried to wrap her legs around him, to pull him closer and he was so eager to press harder than he moved towards her, pushing her weight to the other side brink of the sink.
Spoons and forks fell onto the sink floor, it was so loud like a bomb that it made both of them jumped. Historia unconsciously jumps off from being seated at the brink of the sink, her heart was about to get off of her chest in anxiety though that somebody entered the kitchen and saw them like this, But Levi didn't budge, he immediately closed the distance on the second time and devoured her mouth entirely that she grunts. She pushed him away but the more she does it, the wilder he becomes. The harder he smash his mouth to at the sides of her mouth.
"Damn it, Historia, the kids are sleeping . . ."
he whispered, his voice cracked while catching his breath against her mouth.
Before she could respond, he immediately brought his face to her exposed chest, his mouth planted kisses on her puffed mountains. she moaned as his long tongue went out to lick her breast's dark spot.
She made a low sound of pleasure and tugged on his undercut. Her legs are weakening again on the sight of the Captain...
She's speechless, she was defeated by the desire to go farther with the man who choked her once, and helped her to build an orphanage.
After being drowned by his intense romance to her exposed chest, the Captain brought his lips to her ears and spoke,
"I'm blaming the tea for this"
His dark solid tone entered like a rhyme against her ears,
Historia wants to laugh, but instead of doing it her arms snaked his neck and she leveled her lips to his red flushed ears. "The tea's innocent." She made it sure to whisper it with longing.
Then She might not see it but she can feel his lips twitched against her skin.
the Captain smirked against her neck, making her bit her lips
"I know."
