A/N: So many reviews! If you guys keep that up, I might be forced to update regularly!
The man's eyes widened in surprise as a foot collided with his head. He fell to the side, hitting his head on the floor with a loud crack. Eren looked up in surprise and relief, happy that Levi had gotten there before the man had managed to take away his first kiss.
Levi stood there, pure anger showing in his eyes, his expression, and his stance. He walked forward and kicked the guy again, in his stomach this time.
"Filthy piece of shit." he growled as he kicked him again. The other two ran out, nearly screaming in fright. Eren scooted away in order to avoid getting kicked himself. He was glad Levi had shown up, but Levi was taking it too far.
"Levi!" Eren yelled. Levi stopped, turning his head toward Eren. Eren shrank from the fury he saw in Levi's gaze. "Stop. Any more and you'll kill him."
"And you think he deserves anything less?" Levi practically spat. Eren flinched.
"Just let him go." Eren said. Levi stared at him. Was this boy serious?! Levi had come all this way, gotten sweaty and gross, and nearly had a heart attack, and Eren wanted him to stop?!
Eren kept his gaze steady. Finally, Levi sighed. He stepped back. The man groaned in pain, but got up and ran despite his most likely broken ribs. Eren made a note to memorize his face. He hoped he would be able to recognize him without all of the blood on his face.
Levi untied Eren's wrists, and Eren set to work on his ankles, feeling Levi's gaze on him. It was no longer filled with fury. Now, it was more filled with... thoughtfulness, like he was thinking about something.
Eren stood up shakily. He could do this. He was strong. He walked toward the door, Levi following close behind.
"Thank you." Eren said, smiling. It was a genuine smile. A light blush dusted Levi's cheeks.
"Whatever."
"Oi, brat." Levi said once they reached the street.
"What is it?" asked Eren, turning toward Levi. Levi stood on his toes and brushed his lips across Eren's, causing him to freeze. Levi's lips were soft on his. Levi pulled back all too soon. Eren's face was bright red. His first kiss!
Levi studied Eren's face and smirked, turning around and heading for his apartment. He wasn't even going to bother trying to go back to the cafe. Eren, however, had a lot of explaining to do.
Trying to forget the feeling of Levi's lips on his, he started walking toward the cafe. He wasn't going to tell anybody other than his boss. He didn't want to worry them.
Jean pulled the horse mask off. His face was sweaty from being stuck in there all day. And Eren had disappeared halfway! What a bastard.
Armin was taking off his butler costume. Jean couldn't help but watch. Armin caught his gaze and Jean blushed, looking away. Armin felt a smirk spread across his face as he finished changing and left, Jean following behind him.
It was still cold outside, and Armin was still sick. He didn't have snot running out of his nose anymore, but he still had headaches and was unable to breathe properly. He couldn't wait until it got warmer, but it was still October.
Jean and Armin ended up riding the same train home. They lived near each other, so it would be strange to do anything else. They kept sneaking glances at one another, sometimes meeting each other's gaze and dropping their own.
Finally, the train ride ended and Jean and Armin started to go their separate ways. As Armin began to leave, he felt Jean tug on his sleeve. He sniffled and turned around.
"Armin." Jean said, his face turning serious, then reddening. "Um... Do you want to get back together?"
Armin couldn't believe what he was hearing. Happiness surged up within him and he lunged forward, wrapping his arms around Jean. Jean stiffened, then relaxed and snaked his arms around Armin.
"Yes," Armin breathed.
A/N: How's that for fluff, eh? If you have any requests, please let me know!
Shorter chapter than normal, but I had a bit of a breakdown this morning, so please bear with me.
