"What… happened… to the part… that you could… walk… by yourself..?!" You huffed and puffed as you dragged Levi through the hallways of the scout regiment base. "Your legs just suddenly gave up?! Luckily we're almost there… I think." What was supposed to be a mere ten minute walk had taken you almost half an hour― Which was a pretty good achievement, taken into account that you had to basically carry him almost the whole way. "Thank god almost everyone are in bed…" You muttered under your breath, scanning the empty hallways as you waddled forwards with him. "I'd rather have no-one witnessing this anyways… You sure this one is the right hallway?" You had crisscrossed all around the building for a good while trying to find his room― Needless to say that the drunkard captain wasn't much of a help. "Hey? ...Hello?!" You had to shake him a couple of times before he sluggishly raised his head, only to grunt and nod at the door to your left before falling back to his coma-like state. "This is it? Really?" You blinked surprised. "Finally…" Inching the final meters forward, you reached to open the door― But it was locked. "You gotta be kidding me. Alright… The key?"
"...In my pocket…"
"Ugh… Fine." When he show no intention of handing over the key, you took the matters to your own hands; You somehow managed to place him against the wall, but to be able to use both of your hands you had to hook his arm over your shoulder― Normally being this close to someone you barely knew would make you feel rather embarrassed, but at this point you were simply too tired (and drunk) to give a fuck. "Get him into his room. Go home. Go to bed. SLEEP." You repeated in your mind as you began going through his jacket pockets. "Any idea which pocket they're in?"
No answer.
"You gotta be kidding me…" You felt a warmth creep onto your cheeks as you reached down to check his pants' pockets. "Damn military and their ridiculously tight pants, I swear I'll―" Your heart missed a beat when just then Levi lifted his gaze, staring you straight in the eye. Not daring to move a muscle, you just stood there frozen, face only inches away from his. For your surprise, after a second― which felt like an eternity― he broke the eye contact to look at something behind you.
"Oi. What are you staring at? Trot off, will you?" He snapped at someone behind you. Glancing over your shoulder, you caught a glimpse of a somewhat shocked looking cadet who quickly skittered away as commanded. "How long he was standing there?! No, wait..! I hope he saw the whole thing, otherwise this could almost look like we're―" Only now realizing your hand was still on Levi's upper thigh, you knew exactly how it must have looked like― You squirmed away from his immediate presence so swiftly you almost knocked the poor captain over, but managed to grab onto his shoulder barely in time.
"Captain; Please hand over the key." Although you made it sound like a polite request, the tension in your voice told more than enough about your current mindset. And of course, that flaming red face of yours. Trying your best to hide it, you kept your gaze down until Levi finally found the key and handed it over to you.
"Finally… I thought this day would never come…" You squealed as you dragged the drunkard captain across the bedroom. Mustering all your remaining strength, you flopped him on the bed― Or that's what you were trying to do, but ended up crashing into the bed with him. "Oh for fuck's sake..! Do you have any idea how much trouble you are?!" You whimpered, all exhausted and very much annoyed as you tried to squirm out of the bed. It proved out to be more difficult as expected; You could barely see a thing in the darkness, not mentioning all the blankets and sheets you kept tangling into. Levi didn't say a word, steady breathing telling you he was already fast asleep. "What a day… How on earth I ended up in this situation..?" Giving up on your struggle, you rolled next to him to catch your breath. "Emmett wants my head on a stake if anyone finds about this… Why I can't just stay out of trouble..? If there's anything good in this situation, at least you won't most probably remember this cringey adventure of ours, right?" You glanced at the sleeping captain next to you. "I'll get out of here and it's like you never even knew I was here. You didn't seem to remember me earlier, anyways…"
"My poor head… I swear, I'll never drink again…"
You didn't even drink that much last night, but the lack of sleep definitely affected the state of your hangover. Your legs felt like mush, which wasn't really a surprise after dragging Captain Levi through the city and all around the scout regiment HQ. He wasn't exactly a big guy, thank god, but neither were you! Overall, you felt like shit at the moment and wished you could just sleep the whole day― But the sunlight behind your eyelids told you were already running late. Whimpering and groaning at the nauseous feeling in your stomach, you finally forced your eyes open.
"What the-?! Oh no-no-no-no-!" Now wide awake like from the hit of a lightning, you sprung up, unable to believe your eyes. "I'm still here?!" It was true; You were still in his bedroom. "I must have fallen asleep-" Feeling of a pure shock bolted through your body when you glanced at the raven haired man next to you. The whole situation looked very different with a sober mind― Much more horrifying, that is. "Oh... fuck. Oh fuck!" You were out of the bed in record time, but all the ruckus you made woke up Captain Levi who had still been fast asleep a moment ago. He looked just as shocked as you, but more than anything confused as he stared down at the person on the floor of his bedroom.
"I… Uh…" You stuttered, unable to take your eyes from his as you stumbled up from the floor. You had no idea what to say― Part of you just wanted to bolt out of the room without a word, but you had to say something! Something, anything! "I'm… I… Sorry, thank you and goodbye!" After squealing out those words accompanied by a brief bowing gesture, it didn't take longer than two seconds until you were out of the room, leaving extremely confused Heichou there by himself. In the doorway you almost bumped at the Commander Erwin Smith, who looked very surprised to say at least when you bolted through the door. "Eh?! Uh… Good morning, Commander!" After giving him a hasty salute, you rushed past him and dashed towards the nearest exit.
Only merely 10 minutes later you stood in the line with the other commanding officers at the military police HQ― You had ran the whole way over there, even going through the trouble of climbing into your room through the window so no-one could guess you had spent your night elsewhere. Thankfully you weren't the only one who was late; "So far so good―" You thought as you scanned your comrades with your gaze. Emmett was nowhere to be seen; Called in sick so he could spend the day nurturing his shattered ego, you guessed. "I just slept in due to my hangover like half of the people… Like I actually did, but that's just half of the truth." Finally starting to relax a bit, you straightened your posture when Commander Nile Dawk arrived to go through the assignments of the day.
Rest of the day went really slowly. You spend the morning patrolling at Stohess district, which was exactly the job you needed at the moment; Normally you didn't like patrolling too much, so tedious as it mostly was, but you felt like you'd already had enough excitement for today. You tried your best just to forget all about your nightly adventures, but something you overheard during lunch piqued your interest:
"...Yeah, I know, right?" One of the cadet girls giggled. "But it doesn't stop there~! After he got his ass kicked by Emmett, he was seen making out with some gal― I mean, he's just a man, alright, but just wait until you hear the rest..!"
"He? Captain Levi?" You frowned to yourself. "It was Emmett who got his ass kicked, nice job on checking the facts- Wait what?! Making out?!" What they were talking about?
"They were all over each other right out there in the scout regiment base hallway! He's a captain and everything, he should be a bit more careful where and when he lets his manly-man hormones take over!" All three girls erupted into a loud giggling, but you weren't laughing― Eyes glued onto the half eaten meal in front of you, you sat there holding your breath as you waited them to continue. "You haven't even heard the best thing yet― That girl… was a military police officer!"
