A Night at the Bar

Levi and Eren were drug to a bar by Hanji on a Friday night, as usual. Leave it to Hanji to want to spend her time at a dirty, smelly bar. Eren didn't mind the bars much, but Levi hated them. The second he entered one he could smell sweat and all kinds of alcohol mixing. The music was always too loud, and there was always someone who wanted to hit on him, male or female. He was glad Eren was there, and that they both wore their wedding bands.

They had come in and sat down an hour earlier. Hanji had wandered off a long time ago, and Eren had just left to go to the bathroom. Beer always made him have to pee. Eren hadn't been gone two minutes when Levi, sitting at the bar and feeling like he needed a shower, felt large hands on his waist. Thinking it was Eren, already returned from the bathroom, he allowed it, but it didn't last long.

"Hey, baby. What do you say I buy you a drink and take you home with me?" Levi's eyes widened at the strange voice. He quickly knocked the man's hands away from him and turned around.

The first thing Levi noticed was rotten breath being blown right in his face, and when the man smiled, Levi could see why his breath smelled so bad; his teeth were yellow, starting to turn brown. The man was obviously a heavy drinker. Levi glared at the bearded man, "no," he stated clearly and simply.

"Come on, baby. You'd love it in my bed with me deep inside you." Levi almost gagged at the thought.

"No way in hell."

"Why not?" The guy turned to come closer, and Levi pushed him away.

"Three reasons. First, I'm married," he held up his left hand, showing off the blackish silver band on his finger, "two, I'm a top. Three, and probably most importantly, you are disgusting. If you're going to try to seduce someone you should probably brush your teeth, and shave. Do you know how many germs that beard holds?" The man looked completely flabbergasted, "A lot. Now leave me alone before my husband comes back and we both kick your ass."

The man walked away, dumbfounded by Levi's attitude and comments, but Levi could feel the man watching him for the rest of the time he spent there.

When the raven turned back to his drink on the bar, he also looked at his watch. Eren had been gone a little longer than expected, but he didn't worry about it too much, he just wanted the younger man to come back before someone else tried to take him home. Levi could handle it, he was a martial arts black belt, but that didn't mean he wanted to deal with it.

He sat there for a few more minutes, and when Eren didn't appear, he put his palms to his eyes, rubbing them and attempting to work up to going to the bathroom to retrieve his husband. As he was about to get up from the stool, he felt a pair of strong arms wrap around his waist.

Levi was about to seriously lose his shit, ready to hurl the man across the room, but when he inhaled he caught a whiff of Eren's cologne, and immediately relaxed into the embrace.

"Did you miss me?" Eren whispered into his husband's ear. Levi relaxed even more, turning around on his stool to wrap his own arms around the other male and bury his face in his husband's broad chest. Eren laughed, "I take that as a yes."

Levi groaned, "I had some jerk try to seduce me while you were gone." He pulled away, grabbing Eren's left hand and rubbing his thumb over the matching ring there, "He was a disgusting creature. Nothing like the man I love so much."

Eren smiled fondly down at their entwined hands, then pulled Levi back into a tight embrace, "I love you, too."

They were enjoying their embrace when Hanji came barreling through the crowd, screaming for Levi to help. The short man stood quickly, and Hanji crouched behind him.

"Why are you hiding behind me?" He heard and angry voice from the same direction Hanji came from. When he looked back to the front, the same man from earlier came bursting through the crowd. Levi looked over his shoulder at Hanji, glaring at her, "what did you do?"

Hanji glanced up at him sheepishly, "I may have seen him trying to hit on you, so I may have teased him about it." Levi glared harder, and turned back to the bearded oaf, who was scanning the room for Hanji. He spotted her peaking over Levi's shoulder, and approached, his chest puffed up, trying to make himself look bigger. Levi thought he looked like a blowfish: ridiculous, but poisonous.

He looked angry when he started talking to Levi, "I thought you said you had a husband, not a wife." He glared at Hanji, who hid once again.

"I do," replied Levi, who pointed to Eren, who was standing to the side and just behind Levi. The younger man held up his left hand to show the matching wedding band.

"Seriously? That kid?" Levi glared hard at the man, ready to pounce for insulting his husband, but the man saved himself just in time, "Whatever, I don't care. Just let me have the girl who insulted me, and I'll be on my way."

"I can't let you do that. She might be pretty dense, but she's still my best friend," Levi stood his ground.

The other man growled through gritted teeth, "hand her over now, or I'll pound that pretty little face, then take you home anyways, and your face won't be the only thing I've pounded tonight."

Now it was Eren's turn to react. Eren stepped in front of Levi. He was just as tall as the other man, "If you lay a hand on my husband, I'll beat you within an inch of your life. You'll wish you'd never been born." Levi raised and eyebrow at his husband's words and actions. Normally Eren wasn't the violent, confrontational type, unless it was horse-face Jean, then all bets were off. Levi was another exception though, apparently.

The two tall men stared each other down, and finally, admitting he was outnumbered, the other man grunted and walked away. Levi convinced Hanji it was time to leave, sick of being hit on and confronted by the same man.

Needless to say, Eren and Levi had the best night of their lives from their earlier displays of devotion and affection, which escalated quickly once they arrived home and kicked Hanji from the house.
