A/N) I have lots of requests for stuff and am going to try to fit it all in somewhere, but for now, some actual story! No warning of intense or heavy sex, just an actual plot! Crazy right? Hope that doesn't make anyone lose interest. This is totally necessary, because some pieces of a puzzle are going to start coming together. So, please enjoy. Sorry if I hurt the feels...just a warning.
Oh, big thank you for those who requested kinks. You just wait, next chapter with sex is going to blow some minds, I hope. (aren't I so confident) And thank you to all the new favs and follows! Seriously guys, totally humbled. Like just beyond belief.
The same night that Eren got collared by Levi, Armin got a call from his boyfriend, and was promptly smothered by him.
Erwin ran one hand across the gentle curves of the beauty beside him. He nuzzled his face against the long blonde hair, and inhaled deeply "Remind me to never let you have days off."
Armin giggled, and turned around to look at Erwin with big blue eyes "Why?"
"You're the only bartender who I can say 'give me my usual' and it's in front of me in a blink."
"And here I thought you'd say you missed seeing me."
"Well, that too, but I can't fuck you at work. Professionalism and all that."
Armin snorted "At a gay strip club? Professionalism?"
"Hey! I try. Oh, hey your friend Eren showed up!" Erwin said, pulling his girlfriend closer.
"Yeah, he is pretty much smitten with Levi. Makes me sad Levi has other clients and stuff."
Erwin laughed "Other clients? Please! Men throw themselves at Levi, and he tells them no. I'm confused as to why he still plays with Eren."
Armin sat up, staring at Erwin "Wait! Eren is his only sub? Why aren't they hooking up?"
Erwin looked away "That's not my story to tell. Levi just has something's to go through."
Armin has already learned that Erwin and Levi had been friends for years, but that was it. Everything else was only Levi's story to tell.
"This is great news! Maybe Eren could worm his way into Levi's heart. They could be a couple!"
Erwin kissed his girlfriends forehead "Don't count chickens before they hatch. This is their lives, not ours. Now come here and let me love you."
Armin giggled "You don't have to try very hard." she cuddled up to him "I, uh, started my hormone therapy today."
Erwin held her tight "You did? That's wonderful. How did it feel? Knowing you are starting the transition?"
"Scary. And exciting. You are absolutely sure that you are okay with this. I mean you adore my body already the way it is. Will it change if I change?"
"Armin, baby, I already told you, I love you for who you are. Even if your physical appearance changes, you will still be the same. No matter what you physically look like, you will be Armin. The person I love."
"Really? You really mean that?" her eyes filled up with tears. Her tiny body trembled in the strong embrace.
"I think you need to meet a friend of mine tomorrow. Let's get to sleep. I need to make a phone call in the morning."
Armin looked up curiously at her boyfriend but merely snuggled against him. She trusted him, but she was curious as to who Erwin was talking about. Well she just had to sleep to figure it out, and next to Erwin, that wasn't hard.
The next morning, Eren woke up, and didn't know where he was. He rubbed at his eyes, and realized there was an arm around his chest. He looked over, and felt his heart melt. Levi looked absolutely adorable while sleeping. Eren wanted to coo, but decided against it. Especially, because his collar still jingled against his neck. He smiled, the two of them had a lot of play time, and he had been exhausted. He stiffened when Levi groaned and rolled over. He was struck breathless when grey eyes opened up at him. He had never seen them before. Not this close and tired looking. The last time they stayed together, Levi was gone before Eren woke. He wasn't upset, he knew it might have been awkward.
"Your breathe smells like shit, brat." Levi said, before turning he head and yawning. He looked over and saw those stunning eyes, and gorgeous smile. He reached a hand up, and ran his fingers through chocolate colored hair. He felt a shock in his chest. He pulled away, lightning fast, and looked away "Want me to remove your collar?"
"If that's what master desires." Eren said. There was a look in Levi's eyes he couldn't quite pin, but he ignored it.
"Turn around then."
Eren complied, and Levi took a minute to regain his bearings. He began unlocking the mechanism sealing the collar onto Eren's neck "I'll keep this okay? That way, no one but I can put it on your neck."
Eren shook his head "I wouldn't dream of letting someone put a collar on me...I mean while I'm training." Almost gave himself away.
"Yeah...training..." Levi got up and stretched. Poor Eren bit on his lip, watching those taut muscles stretch. Damn Levi was so fucking sexy. It should have been a crime to be that hot.
Eren figured he should start getting dressed too. While fumbling with his pants he asked "When do I get to see you again?"
Levi chuckled, throwing a shirt at the boy "Whenever you want, brat."
Eren smiled happily. To know, in a way, he had his Master at his beck and call, was thrilling. To know Levi wanted him to be happy, made him happy. This was the perfect...maybe not relationship, but partnership. One that was discreet, and professional. But damn if Eren didn't want more.
When they left they each went separate ways. Levi berated himself. Eren looked so cute this morning, and Levi had to swallow down a comment about waking to that face every morning. He was falling, fast and hard for Eren, but his damn past kept rearing it's ugly head. He decided to take a detour on his way home.
Eren was greeted in a not so nice fashion.
"Eren Yeager! Where have you been? We have a brunch with some high class people in exactly forty-five minutes!" Carla yelled at her son, as he came waltzing in the door. "I called your phone and it went straight to voicemail!"
Eren's face paled. He had forgotten. He pulled his phone out, and sure enough, it was dead. "Shit! Mom I'm so sorry! I'll be ready in ten!" He rushed upstairs. How could he have been so stupid. He got so worked up and caught in his own happiness and pleasure, that he almost forgot about his obligations to his family. Sometimes he wished he wasn't so good at his job, and could be free and taken care of, but this was better than being a doctor. Speaking of doctors "Hey Mikasa, long time no see."
The girl gave a tired nod "Sixteen hour shifts interning at the hospital is killer, but we saved a lot of lives. Where have you been? Not out visiting seedy strip joints?" She said with a small laugh.
Eren let out a forced laugh, desperately fighting an oncoming blush. It was crazy how close to the truth she really was, but as far as he knew, she knew nothing. "No! Of course not, hanging with Armin, and just getting away for design inspiration. Coming up with new clothes for my line is getting difficult."
Mikasa nodded. She decided to stop the conversation because he needed to get moving, and she needs to sleep. "I'm going to bed."
"Night Mikasa." Eren took off to his room.
His sister wasn't as stupid as he thought she was. Those red ears were a dead give away. She just hoped her brother wasn't being stupid. One thing she learned as a doctor was, you can't save the world. You can only hope for the best sometimes.
Mikasa Ackerman was the same age as Eren, and was adopted by the Yeager family when she was around nine. She had no idea if she had any family other than them because she was too young to remember if she met any family. Plus, losing her family, caused her to lose some of her memories. Trauma, is what they said. Apparently, there was a wealthy businessman known as Kenneth Ackerman, but he died before Mikasa could research the relation possibility. She loved the Yeager's. Carla and Grisha were her parents, but a piece of her wished she knew some of her real family. Thanks to Grisha, she was able to devote her life to helping others. Since she lost her parents to a horrible hit and run accident, that's why she became a doctor. To help people, and save lives. She didn't want any kid to go through what she did. They say no parent should ever bury a child, but to her, no kid should ever have to go to their parents funeral, and learn they aren't ever coming back. That, in her mind, was the worst fate ever.
Levi pulled up to his destination, and walked past many marble slabs until he found the one he was looking for. He knelt in front of it "Hey Farlan, how's death treating you?" He let out a shaky laugh, trying to choke back the tears "Ever since you've been gone, my life has been one fuck up after another. I don't know what to do anymore. I'm getting involved with some heavy shit, and I just...I miss your smile and your hugs." He reached up, and touched to collar lying on the headstone "I miss my pet..."
