Summary: Rivetra Week 2018 Day 6 Prompt

Petra's brow furrowed. "Where is it? Where is it?" She mumbled under her breath. Her entire suitcase was unpacked around her.

"What's wrong? Looking for something?" Levi asked.

"I can't find my body pillow."

"I doubt it's in there." He looked around. "Maybe it's in the car. I can go check," he offered.

"Thanks."

Levi left the room and went to the parking lot. He, Petra, Gunther, and Oluo had driven to a neighboring city for a comic con. Erd was sick and between the four of them, they decided to get two rooms with two beds each. Levi had made sure to claim Petra before telling the other two men about the plan.

"Was it in the car?" Petra asked hopefully when he returned.

"No. Sorry." Levi shrugged. "Are you sure you packed it?"

"Yes," she replied, frustrated. "I can't sleep without it. I've gotten so used to it and I need to wrap my body around something otherwise my limbs won't know what to do and I'll get all restless!"

"Just use one of these." Levi picked a pillow from her bed.

"No. It's too small and fat." She tossed it back. "Ugh! How am I supposed to sleep now?"

"Pity. Guess you're just going to have to suck it up."

Levi's phone buzzed and he didn't miss her staring at him as he checked his messages. "It's—"

"Can I sleep with you?"

"Well, it'd be nice if you took me to dinner first."

Petra rolled her eyes. "Nothing like that, pervert."

"You want to sleep with me and I'm the pervert?"

"Levi." She pouted. "Please? I know you're not big on touching people but if I can't get a good night's sleep, well, it'll ruin my experience if I'm sleep deprived."

"Fine," he relented. "But only because you get cranky when you don't get enough sleep and I don't want you raining on my parade."

Petra beamed. "Thank you!"

"Don't try anything funny."

"Relax," she snorted, "your virtue is safe with me. Who was it? The text."

"Oh. Gunther. He wanted to know if we wanted to shower first or have food delivered here."

"Shower," she answered. "Can I go first?"

"Go ahead." He watched her grab her things and disappear, hearing the water run a minute later. Smiling, he lay back on his bed. He couldn't believe his luck. Not only would they be sharing a room but a bed as well.

Levi decided he was looking forward to cuddling with Petra more than the convention they were there for. Just imagining holding her, feeling her warmth and softness, it felt so good he was tempted to grin like an idiot, feeling a rush of excitement and happiness. I want to hold her. He wanted to smell her skin and her hair and feel her against him. To curl himself around her and pull her close as possible and never let go.

He shook his head of the thoughts. Looking at his wrist, he checked the time. Levi couldn't wait until it was time to go to bed.
