Chapter 7. The Cherry Popsicle

A cheerful ding announced her arrival at floor 35 and the elevator doors slid open smoothly. Hanji stepped out and leisurely made her way to room 670. Today was the least busy day they'd had in weeks and the calm atmosphere that radiated from the hallways was a complete three-sixty from the usual frantic bustling and activity that always permeated from the offices. The redhead passed Levi's office and finally faced the designated door. She grabbed the steel handle with bubbling enthusiasm and turned it eagerly.

"My friends! How fare thee on this glorious day?" The door was flung in the room and it crashed noisily into the wall. The people inside jumped and turned to look at her with dark and accusing looks on their faces.

Oops, that was a bit loud... Oh well. Hanji thought with a cheeky grin. She had always been fond of dramatic entrances.

"Are you guys ready for our lunch date?"

Auruo scowled and squinted at her suspiciously. "Date? What date? I don't remember agreeing to any kind of date with you."

"Awww don't you remember? At the club we all agreed to order pizza and have lunch together! It'll be barrels of fun."

Nellie was seated at her desk and she paused in painting her nails a deeper shade of red, sparing an amused glance at her friend. "Barrels? What kind of measurement is 'barrels' of fun? Nothing comes in barrels."

Hanji frowned, sidetracked by her question. "Apples come in barrels... Don't they? Like the saying, 'a bad apple ruins the whole barrel'."

The chestnut haired woman giggled and nodded her head. "Sure, sure; barrels of fun it is."

Hanji's attention shifted and she peered around the room, her sharp eyes quickly noticing that two of her fellow workers were missing. "Hey, where are Annie and Eren?"

Erd sniffed. "Levi's got the kid on cleaning duty and Annie went to go get coffee." He said quietly and flipped through a black folder.

"Awww, my poor bunny boo! I hope that demon isn't working him too hard!"

Nellie frowned and looked at the door. "Do you think they made up after that fight they had?"

Hanji nodded and grinned happily. "Yep! I texted our favorite midget over the weekend and found out that he apparently 'apologized' for being a mean drunk and then gave Eren a ride home."

The brunette laughed and pursed her scarlet lips. "Well good! But knowing Levi, he probably didn't even-" She shut her mouth with an audible snap and quickly glanced away when she saw said man stride in with his tall secretary in tow. "Speak of the Devil..." She murmured.

"And he shall appear." Finished Hanji with a low chuckle.

She pranced over to the ebony haired man and latched on to his arm after giving Eren a firm pat on the rump. She pinched Levi's cheek in greeting and jumped away before he could get any ideas on hitting her.

"Heeeello, my little prickly pear! How goes it?"

"Fuck you."

She laughed and sat down on top of a nearby desk, not fazed in the least by his harsh reply and even harsher glare.

"What the hell is a prickly pear?" Asked Eren; bemusedly watching the exchange.

"Eren." Hanji giggled and looked at him with fake haughtiness. "A prickly pear is this fruit that's all pinchy and... well, prickly on the outside but yummy and sweet on the inside!" Glasses glinted under the fluorescents as she motioned her head towards Levi. "You know, like shorty over there." The redhead yelped when she was roughly pushed off the desk and she fell to the floor in a groaning heap. "Awww! Levi, there no need for violence- you know I say it with love!"

Levi scoffed and looked unimpressed. "Keep your disgusting 'love' to yourself. I sure as hell don't want it." He stepped over her immobile form and nodded at Erd. "You needed me to look at something?" Erd held up the black folder and passed it to Levi, speaking quietly while gray eyes scanned its contents.

Hanji let out a despondent sigh and latched on to Eren's jeans. "B-bunny boo... Levi is sooo mean!"

The brunette laughed and helped her up. "Honestly, Hanji. You should know better than to make any references to Levi's height in front of him."

She waved his comment off dismissively. "Yes, yes, yes. I know."

Eren stilled and scrunched up his nose. Something smelled like... Pizza?

"Hey y'all, I brought lunch!"

He turned his head to see Petra, Annie and Erwin walk in. Petra and Annie both held a pizza box and the stoic blonde had a cup of coffee balanced on top of hers. Erwin smiled and said hello, giving Auruo the box of frozen popsicles he had under his arm, and made his way to where Erd and Levi stood discussing between themselves. Annie dropped the pizza and some napkins on a table and walked over to her cubicle.

"Hi Annie," Nellie said, "are you staying for lunch?"

The blonde shook her head and grabbed her jacket and gloves. "Can't. I'm busy."

"Noooo, you haveto stay!" Hanji whined. "C'mon, you'll have a good time."

"I'm busy."

The redhead frowned. "You're busy?" She squinted at the blonde and asked moodily, "Busy doing what?"

The blonde girl looked at Hanji indifferently, sipped her coffee, and strolled out of the room without a backwards glance.

"Busy going out on a date."

The door clicked shut and the room was quiet with shocked silence. Seconds passed and nobody moved, even Levi looked a bit stunned. Nellie's shoulders began to tremble and then shake in silent laughter. She snorted loudly and snickered, a few tears streaming out of her eyes as she pointed at everybody in the room. "Y-your faces! Oh, god, you look like you just saw Annie grow horns!"

Hanji turned to her friend incredulously. "Can you blame us? Annie... Annie is on a date..." She shook her head from side to side. "What the actual fuck!?"

Red nails tapped an annoyed pattern on her desk and Nellie let out an exasperated sigh. "Hanji, it's not such a big deal, It's not like Annie hasn't ever dated before- I'm pretty sure she has. I'm kinda surprised she told us, though... I wonder why she did." Her expressive brown eyes unfocused and her eyebrows scrunched up slightly.

"Who cares why she told us, the fact remains that she's going out on a date." The redhead peered at her friend. "But the real question is whois she going on the date with? Aren't you just dying of curiosity?"

Nellie exhaled despondently. "Not really."

"Che. You don't have a researcher's soul like I do." Hanji sniffed and looked around the room, ignoring the brunette's muttered, 'thank god for that'. "Does anyone have even an inkling of who she might be dating? Anyone at all?"

Auruo grabbed a slice of pizza and chewed thoughtfully. "You know, at the club, there was this muscly blonde guy chatting her up at the bar. Maybe it was him?"

Hanji steepled her fingers and her lips turned down at the corners in a small pout. "Hmmm. Maybe."

"Speaking of the club," Petra interjects, handing out slices of pizza on napkins, "Eren promised to tell us all his dirty secrets, remember Hanji?"

Hanji's face brightened considerably and she turned to look at the young secretary expectantly. "That's right! Eren, tell us all you know on the art of sex."

Eren choked and coughed to dislodge the piece of cheesy goodness stuck in his throat. "Y-you mean tell you right now?" He looked around the room apprehensively, noticing how Erwin, Levi, and Auruo were blatantly staring at him. "I thought I'd tell you girls in private or something." He mumbles.

Nellie gave him a Cheshire Cat smile. "Oh yeah? Well too bad pretty boy. Now spill."

The younger boy nodded hesitantly and placed his pizza on his napkin. "Ok, go ahead and ask whatever you want to know."

"Um- can I go first?" Petra asks, her hand going up as if she were a student and Eren the teacher. God, he thought and snorted softly to himself. I'd be one hell of a teacher. 'Hello class, today we'll be learning about the thing that makes the world go round- SEX.'

"Sure, shoot."

The short blonde twirled a strand of champagne colored hair around her finger and stuttered out, "A-are you a t-top or bottom?" Petra blushed fiercely and turned an alarming shade of puce. "Or," she whispered and licked her lips nervously, "or are you both?"

The room became as silent as it had been during Annie's shocking deceleration, and Eren felt a slight blush curl up and warm his neck and cheeks from all the attention he was getting. He stood up from his chair in one fluid motion and prowled over to where Petra was sitting. Eren stood right in front of her and scorched her with his suggestive once-over. "Top or bottom, luv?" He grinned flirtatiously, letting his light accent shine through, and caged her in with his arms braced against the edges of the desk on either side of her. He leaned down dangerously close to her mouth and slowly rubbed his nose against her own. "Which," he breathed out in an inviting whisper, "do you think I am?"

Petra gasped softly at the sudden closeness and ogled at him, completely mesmerized by Eren's stormy ocean colored eyes. "Uhhh... yes?" He softly laughed at her dazed look. "I-I'm sorry... W-what was the question?"

He chuckled sultrily and straightened back up when he noticed Auruo glaring daggers at him from the other side of the room. "You asked if topped or bottomed. I've actually done both." He looked down at his combat boots and forced a small smile. "But it's been years since I bottomed, I did it when I was younger... And it- it was just awful..." His lips drooped and his eyes took on a faraway look, pinching at the corners. "I top but if I ever bottom again, it'll be with someone I actually care about..." Eren trailed off and finally snapped back to reality when Hanji made an approving noise.

"Good for you Eren, I'm sorry you didn't like your bottom experience but I like the way you think! Plus," she said with a cheery wink, "you just proved Nellie wrong. She thought that you were a die-hard top." Hanji turned to her red lipped friend with a satisfied grin. "My dearest love, you owe me twenty bucks for losing that bet. Now," she stood up and looked across the room at Levi. "How 'bout you, my prickly pear- pitcher or catcher- which is it?"

Levi scowled darkly. "I don't see how it's any of your business, you little fucker."

Erwin began laughing next to him and the tall blonde received a hard kick to the shin in punishment. Erwin gasped and leaned against the wall, still chuckling. "Hanji, I think he prefers the terms 'seme' and 'uke' instead." He looked at the redhead jokingly and she began to laugh.

"Hell." Levi pinched the bridge of his nose and tried to ignore Hanji's gleeful cackles. "I know that you'll never give up until I tell you, so shut up and listen." He hissed menacingly. "I'm a top. I've never bottomed in my life- nor do I plan to." He shuddered and scowled at them. "That's just plain unsanitary and disgusting."

Eren didn't even hear the teasing and jokes that followed, he was too busy processing the fact that Levi was gay. Does this mean that maybe... maybe I have a chance with him? Do I even want a chance with him? Damn it, he's a total jerk- I shouldn't even be attracted to him the first place...He glanced over at the older man, noticing the strong jawline and slender form and couldn't stop himself from hoping that maybe- just maybe he could just give it a try. Throw the line; see if anything bites... perhaps even launch a seduction campaign against him. Eren stared at his boss with gleaming determination and smiled to himself.

Oh yes, he'd definitely give it a try.

"Ok, ok." Nellie said, making a calming motion with her hands. "Not that this isn't all extremely interesting, but let's get back to the topic at hand, shall we?" The office quieted back down and brown eyes glinted mischievously at the secretary. "Eren's plethora of slutty bedroom knowledge. And this time, it's my turn to ask a question." She said smugly. Eren waited for her to continue and she took a small breath.

"I want to know how to give good head." Nellie giggled at his astonished expression. "Not that I'm planning on giving anybody a blow job any time soon, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to have the knowledge- and who better to tell me how a guy likes it than a guy himself."

Eren blushed and stammered, "W-well, umm it all depends on the individual really... I don't really know how to answer this. Do- do you want a description or do you want me to show you or..." He looked away uncomfortably and made the mistake of meeting piercing gray eyes. His throat became dry and his flush intensified. "What exactly do you want me to do...?"

Hanji, Nellie, and Petra silently looked at each other before turning back to the brunette. "SHOW US!" They said as one.

He faltered under their collective might and looked at the pizza boxes awkwardly. "A- alright... But… how?"

Hanji regarded the occupants of the room, eyes lingering on Levi, and asked with a shit-eating grin, "Are there any volunteers?" She ignored Nellie's cries of 'Me! Ooh pick me, pick me!' and kept staring at her expressionless friend. "Nell, hun, you can't volunteer- you don't have a dick." The raven haired man returned her gaze stonily and she finally looked away. Nobody could beat Levi in a stare down. "No one? Really? Ok then, your loss. Here, Eren- catch." Hanji tossed the box of popsicles that was sitting next to her at the young male. "Use one of these tasty treats as a pseudo-dick."

He caught it and looked seriously at them. "I'll do this once, and only once." Why did I ever agree to this...? "And pay attention because I'm not going to explain everything I do." Eren randomly pulled a popsicle out of the box and unwrapped it. It was a bright artificially red cherry flavored one, and it was already beginning to melt. Eren looked around and was flustered and disconcerted by all the attentive stares.

Well if it's a show they want, a show is what they're going to get.

Determination welled within him and he said, "Alright, Nellie, never forget to use your tongue- guys like seeing it and being teased by it. Just don't slobber everywhere, that's gross." He winked at her. "Observe."

He glanced at his boss and noticed his statuesque appearance. Maybe he could begin the seduction campaign right now… hmm. That was certainly an interesting idea. Levi's observant scrutiny burned into him as he placed the red ice against his lips. His pink tongue darted out and swiped the tip of the ice cream, his seawater-green eyes on the shorter man standing across the room the whole time. Eren licked the popsicle from top to bottom and saw Levi's adams apple bob in a hard swallow. The younger male chuckled and parted his lips, ignoring everybody else in the room and focusing solely on his boss and his task.

"It's fine if you can't deep throat, you can always use your hands to help you if needed." Eren said to the brunette sitting beside him.

He tilted his head back and shoved a few inches of the popsicle straight down his throat. His bright green eyes lidded and locked with gray ones as he hollowed out his cheeks and pushed the remaining cherry flavored ice in his mouth. He took a second to think about how different it was from the real thing. It was a lot thinner than a cock but it was sweet and so cold that it burned his mouth and tongue the longer he kept it shoved in. Eren gave a long suck and slurped down some of the melted liquid. Levi was wearing a neutral expression and appeared to be frozen in place, but when the secretary looked down he saw evidence that the older man was not as unaffected by the lewd display as he seemed. Levi's pants showcased a slight tent and Eren swore he saw it twitch in response when his boss realized exactly where his ocean eyes were looking.

He pulled it out until just the tip of the popsicle remained and swirled his red-stained tongue over it. Eren gave one finishing suck and the melted ice trickled down his throat with a few stray scarlet drops rolling down his chin. He pulled the leftover wooden stick from between cherry coated lips and smacked them wetly, savoring the taste. The young male glanced at Levi evocatively under lowered lashes and smirked when he saw that his boss was now holding the black folder that Erd had given him in front of his crotch, concealing the erection. Levi might have been able to hide evidence of his arousal, but he couldn't hide the way his slate colored eyes were devouring his young secretary with their heated gaze.

"Oh. My. Fuck... Eren... Will- will you do that again?" Nellie's brown eyes had widened impossibly and her cheeks were heavily dusted with a deep flush. "Please?"

Eren pulled his arm up and chucked the popsicle in the nearest trash can, gracing the lovely brunette with a sultry grin. "Sorry, luv. I told you it was going to be a one-time thing."

Hanji and Nellie groaned in displeasure with grumbled, "Aww's!" and "no fair!"

Auruo glared at the younger male when Petra giggled. "Shameful." He muttered, taking an angry bite of his pizza and harshly wiping his mouth on a napkin. "It was like watching bad porn."

Petra stood up from her seat and fanned her face. "No, Auruo. If that was porn, then it was definitely not bad." She fanned her reddened face and giggled. "Is it hot in here or is just me?" The short blonde walked towards the open door and threw her pizza crust in the trash bin. "I think I'm gonna go splash some cold water on my face before I combust."

Hanji hooted and collapsed into fits of laughter. "Pffft! Go take a cold shower, why don't you?! Your boner is showing!" She cackled and pounded the table noisily with both fists.

Eren chuckled a bit bashfully and noticed Levi straightening from the wall.

"I'll go work on this proposal you gave me." The ebony haired man said, motioning to the folder he held in front of him as he looked back at Erd and Erwin. "I've reached my idiocy tolerance quota for the rest of the month." Levi met his secretary's amused face and the tips of his ears pinkened imperceptibly. "Excuse me."

He strode out of the room and avoided looking at Eren as he passed him.

Hmmm... I wonder if he's still hard... he was holding the folder in front of his pants, but he looked completely calm when he left… Wait. Is- is that why he's going to his office?! Eren bolted upright from his chair and looked at the startled residents of the room apologetically. "Sorry. I'll be right back- I have to… ask Rivaille a question." His mind was so occupied on his thoughts and on trying to walk casually out of the room when all he wanted was to run, that he missed seeing Hanji's knowing grin.

"A 'question', huh?" She chuckled and glanced at Nellie. "Is that what kids are calling it these days?"

The brunette shrugged and giggled. "I guess it's that and 'looking over proposals'." She looked bemusedly at the closed door. "Oh Levi, I hope he knows what he's getting into."

XxXxXx

Eren rushed once he got out of sight and jogged over to Levi's office. He reached the room and took deep breaths to control his erratic breathing before pushing the door open silently. The lights were turned off and Levi sat immobile at his desk, starkly silhouetted by the afternoon sun streaming through the large window behind him. Eren shut the door and Levi's head rolled up.

"Get out." He growled. "Get out now."

The younger boy ignored him and came closer, noticing his boss's slightly flushed look and hand that was partially covered under the desk. His arm moved back in forth in a stroking motion and Eren grinned.

I knew it.

"Brat, thought I told you to leave." Levi scowled and his breath stuttered slightly.

Eren looked him squarely in the eye. "I'm not leaving."

"You..." Levi grunted in a mixture of anger and some other emotion before giving in and returning the other's intense look. "If you won't go, then I hope you're here to finish what you started."

Eren quietly walked across the carpeted floor and kneeled in front of the older man's chair. He gently pushed away the hand that was wrapped around the other's cock and leaned forward hungrily. Eren's breath ghosted over the dark red flesh, making it swell in response as he sighed. He tore his eager eyes away and met molten gray ones as he bent down and placed his crimson lips against the wet tip of the hot length.

"Your wish is my command."
