"Levi?"

"What?" He snapped, obviously irritated and I wasn't surprised but I couldn't help it.

"Can you get me the book I left on the bedside?" I'd been reading a lot since I'd gotten injured, there wasn't a whole lot I could do with my arm in plaster. Especially since Levi had his 'No Sex' barrier back up. He grumbled and trudged off to his.. Our room.

We'd been sharing for the past several weeks, almost five to be exact, since the night we... You know. He'd told everyone it was so he could look after me, an excuse to try and stop people finding out about us. Although, it was such an obvious lie. There was no way Levi would allow Hanji to sleep in his room over a simple injury... I hoped.

He came back a few minutes later and threw the book onto my lap. I picked it up and set it down on the table beside the couch where I was sitting in Levi's office. I reached out in an attempt to grab the grumpy guy's hand but he brushed me off and continued over to his desk which was overflowing with papers. Having no movement in my right arm was becoming a real pain in the neck.

"Hey," I sighed as I got to my feet and walked over to him, wrapping my still working left arm around his waist, resting my hand against his back. He made no attempt to push me off which I took as a good sign. "I'm sorry."

"No, you're in pain, you're allowed to be a pain in the ass." He picked up a small stack of papers and moved them to the other side of the desk.

"Thanks," I spoke with my best non-amused tone.

Levi turned around in my grip, making sure not to hurt my right arm in any way. Gently he brought his hands up, his right resting on the curve of my neck and his left rested on my cheek as he leaned closer. I got a little flutter of excitement as I awaited the kiss that never came.

"Stop being so fucking affectionate towards me in the middle of the day," his eyes cold and beyond pissed. His left hand shifted from my cheek down to my chin where his fingers extended and dug into my cheeks. "I'm you team leader and superior officer, got it?"

It seemed I'd been too lax with my attitude towards him and Levi had grown sick of it. But it did make me wonder if the man had also grown sick of me...

"Levi-Kun?"

He made a soft "Tsk!" noise as I addressed him in such an informal way. Probably only adding fuel to the fire at this point.

"... You're hurting me..." I mumbled between puckered lips. He released his grip on my face but continued to give me an unloving glare. I stood still, keeping my arm tight around him, I tried my best to give him an innocent smile but that just appeared to make him grow irritated. I sighed and took a step back, reluctantly withdrawing my arm from around him. His expression softened and he seemed to disapprove. "Are you sick of me?"

His eyebrows furrows and a trace of hurt and anger sparked in his eyes. He grabbed a handful of my shirt and yanked me closer to him once again. His face was close to mine and I swear I could feel the almost demonic aura he was excreting. I winched, disliking being treated in such a way but I'd angered him so it was probably my own fault.

"No. I hurt you. It's because of me you hurt your arm. Why the hell are you so damn loving towards me? You're such a fucking weirdo, always staying by my side! You never give a shit that I deny loving you to others nor do you say anything about the way I treat you. What's wrong with you!?"

I blinked and just stared blankly at him for a moment, I wanted to make sure I'd heard him right. Was I dreaming for Levi to say such a thing?

"Well!?" He yelled as he gave me a violent shake.

I lifted my left hand and placed it on his which still had a tight grip on my shirt. I smiled brightly as I leaned closer to him, closing the small space between us and kissed him. His grip softened gradually until he released my clothing, however he seemed to refuse any enjoyment in the kiss.

"I love you, I don't care if you do everything you can to deny it to other people as long as you don't deny it to me." I gave his chest a playful poke as I continued. "Your treatment of me isn't bad, you could do to be a little kinder but I don't mind it. That's just who you are, you're rough around the edges. I was joking when I said that, you were in no way responsible for me getting slammed into the titan. I don't mind being a weirdo if you allow me to stay by your side, even if our true relationship is kept secret from others."

He seemed stunned but that fact didn't stop him from wrapping his arms around me and hugging me tightly. I leaned against him and inhaled his smell. His scent was mostly disinfectant that he had on his hands and the faint waft of the coconut shampoo I left in his shower which he'd obviously used, but most of all he smelt like Levi. It wasn't anything I could describe, it was just him. An aroma I loved more than any other, it was far more seductive than any cologne I'd ever smelt and more enticing than a flower.

We stayed like that for a while until we were interrupted by a knock to the door. Slowly, Levi pulled away from the tight embrace and kissed my cheek before shouting for them to enter. I moved back to the sofa as some soldiers I didn't recognise along with Hanji entered the room. I returned to my book but didn't concentrate on it at all. I was far too busy grinning as I remembered the odour of Levi's neck and the warmth of his arms around me. I was rather glad to get those things said, I could tell they'd been bothering him for a while.

Blood. Red hot and running around the place. I was stuck on my knees, unable to move as I lifted my hands to see the crimson stained skin of my palms. So much... It was soaking into my clothes and I could feel the moistness clinging to my body. I inhaled a deep breath and released it in a loud scream. Dead. Everyone was dead. I was the last one left, alone... All alone... Tears streamed down my face as I cried out. Hell, it really was hell.

"Tasha! Tasha-Chan!" My eyes snapped open and the first thing I saw was Levi. Alive and well. I lifted my hands, poking around his face just to make sure he was real. My skin was covered in a cold sweat as my chest rose and fell, I was panting like crazy. "Geez! Tsk, get the hell off of me." he spat as he grabbed me by the wrists and pulled me off of him. Feeling his warm grasp I realized how badly I was shaking.

"What's wrong with you?" He asked as he wiped the tears from my face. My body didn't seem to have enough strength to support itself so I rested my head against his shoulder. Levi gently patted my head and stroked my hair back, he leaned down and kissed my forehead. I clung to his sleepy shirt that he had on, it hung loosely on him as if it were two sizes too large for him. It was obvious the clean freak had acquired it specifically so it would seem as if he'd just been looking after me as it'd be inappropriate for him to sleep without clothing or just boxers, but I doubted anyone believed that. I hoped they were all smart enough to know better, although it was obvious they would never say anything or ask Levi because they didn't wish to get killed or beaten half to death. But Eren did know, that was for sure, the kid never spoke of it though.

However, there was also another reason. It was harder to get him into bed, so to speak, if he had more clothing on.

I took a deep breath and tried to calm my breathing. "I just... It was a bad dream." I didn't want to remember it and talking about it, saying anything about it would only make it seem real.

"It's just a dream, idiot, no need to get so worked up." he scoffed as he relaxed back onto the bed. I looked down to him, still clinging onto his shirt. It had been over three months since my accident and received the injury to my right elbow. I was out of the cast and only in tight bandaging, there was no real reason for me to still be sleeping with him, but there was no way in hell I was going to point it out. I'd slept in that bed every night since we'd made love and I'd grown rather fond of it.

Talking of making love...

I leaned down and kissed his neck, all thoughts of the nightmare right out of my head as I began working to slowly push up his shirt. He grabbed my hands, turning away from me as he grumbled. "Go to sleep."

"Oh come on, you're already awake." I attempted to coax him as I edged closer, burying my head into his back and hanging my arm over him lazily.

"Fine." he sighed.

If I'd ever been shocked it held nothing to that moment. He rolled over and looked at me as he tilted his head into position and pressed his lips softly to mine. Every time the kiss dared to become deep and passionate he pulled away, starting from the beginning as he reconnected our lips. I almost grew frustrated that he refused to have any depth to the show of affection but then I felt the hand slip down my back and under the pair of boxers I'd nicked from him to wear on a night. He gripped my right butt cheek harshly making me flinch away. He smirked, that look he got when he knew he'd won. I despised that look more than most things.

In retaliation I shot my hand up his shirt and before he was able to stop me I pinched his nipple. He grunted and gritted his teeth, his usual sense of domination gone as his cheeks flooded in a hot red. Shock..? That didn't even cover it. "Do you like that?" I snickered. Although... Should a guy like such a thing?

His teeth ground together as he glared at me, if looks could kill I would've died one hundred times in that one second. I sat up, loosening my hold of the nub under his shirt, using my left arm I elbowed him in the side to get him to roll onto his back and sat over him.

Levi looked up at me in surprise and seemingly shock. "Listen here, I understood the no sex while I was all bashed up but I'm practically all better now and a woman has her needs." I bent down and gave him a strong kiss, not allowing him to break away. "I-I'll play with your body if you play with mine?" I offered. It was my turn to blush.

It'd been a while since we'd done anything, even me pleasing him hadn't been done since before we did IT. I worried I might of lost my touch, so to speak. He rolled his eyes, obviously giving in. Throwing his whole weight into it, he rolled over and pinned me to the bed. "How's this, I'll get you warmed up and if you play with me a little bit while I'm at work..." he paused a moment to give my throat a gentle kiss, it felt almost threatening. "And I might consider doing that filthy act with you again." He spoke in such a bored, disgusted tone that I wondered if he even wanted to do such things with me. But he was Levi and hated to show any other side to himself that wasn't a cold, calm, collected soldier.

I narrowed my eyes at him and smirked, I knew where I was going to start. I wanted to see that expression again, that look of almost complete submission, as if he were at my mercy. It was almost refreshing to see something like that come from Levi. He'd always been the one to get me to make such expressions, never had I seen one on his slender face.

I leaned up and kissed the curve in his neck. "Don't hold back..." I whispered. Although the first time we'd done it was great, I'd known he was holding back in roughness. He'd hesitated to mark my skin and grip at my body. He just did his job and kept touching to a minimum. Well, this time I wasn't going to let him get away with such a thing.

He began to lean over to his bedside locker but I threw my arms around his neck and stopped him. I knew what he was going for, those damn rubber gloves. I'd originally found it funny when he'd pulled them on but when he was trying to 'stimulate' me, it wasn't so funny. The latex had rubbed against me in such an irritating and itchy way it turned me off rather than on. He was lucky that his other actions made up for it.

He froze and looked to me. "Tasha-Chan?"

"You use gloves and you'll no longer have the tools you need to have sex." I said bluntly.

"Tsk!" He spat. I knew even having sex with me using gloves was a big step for him but I didn't want barriers. I wanted him, myself and our actions. Anything else wasn't needed so I didn't want it. The only thing that was needed were our bodies. "Fine, but you can't blame me if I shower straight after." I nodded and smiled, it was a compromise I could live with.

He moved back so he was square on me, a slight hint of a smile on his face as he leaned down and kissed me. He started off slow and tender but gradually grew deeper and filled with passion. Our tongues began to lick out and bat against each other as we attempted to explore the other's mouth.

His hand slid up my baggy shirt and made no hesitation about grabbing my breast, there was no bra there to get in his way. I in return ran my hands through his hair, feeling each strand against my skin. I gripped a large handful and gave a gentle tug as he pinched on my slowly hardening nipple. Our lips separated for a moment and I gasped before they locked back together. My legs slowly raised and wrapped around his hips, our bodies pressing tighter together so I could literally feel him against me.

His free hand traced all the way down my body, leaving a shiver to run down my spine. It went all the way down to the end of the leg of the boxers and then slowly slid back up, stroking the outside of my thigh and then rounded back around to give the inside of my leg some attention. The stimulation had me moaning into his mouth as I my body prepared itself for what was promised to come.

I realized that I hadn't done much in the way of getting him as excited as I was so I decided it was only fair to give his body some attention too. Without a fight I rolled him onto his back, and reluctantly pulled away from the kiss. With the sudden change in position my hair flipped over and covered our faces. Levi didn't seem to care though, he simply slid a hand through my hair and slid it out of the way, problem solved.

I gazed into his thin, unusually warm and caring eyes for a moment. I smiled before I began to kiss my way down his neck. Sliding my hands up, I raised his shirt, rushing too much to bother removing it. "Here, keep this out of the way." I pushed the shirt into his mouth and without instruction he held it between his teeth.

He eyed me carefully with a look that said I should watch what I did or he might kill me.

I slid my hand over his tones muscles as I leaned down and gave his right nipple a lick. It was my first time ever doing such a thing, it was surprisingly smooth under my tongue. Levi's teeth clenched down on the fabric as his cheeks grew red again.

There it was, the expression I'd wanted to see. Red cheeks, eyes almost closed yet still open a small bit, showing so much emotion despite the lack of exposed pupil and iris. I gave another lick, this one longer and stronger. He gave a sharp gasp as his hands gripped at the bed sheets under him. I recalled the few times he'd fondled and played with my breasts, he often sucked and nibbled, that got me excited.

I traced my tongue around the pink skin before pressing my lips over it and sucking on it harshly. Another gasp but this one filled with a deep grumbling moan, his eyes shut tightly and his hands gripped on the sheets once more. His cheeks were really red and I could feel his hard erection in reaction to my actions. I smiled and parted my mouth from his skin.

"Gross." He spat between hot pants. I grinned as I too, blushed. I'd actually managed to be dominant and make him give such reactions, I was rather proud of myself! But soon his eyes were open again and had the look of determination.

In one fast movement he'd regained the seat of power, once against on top. He looked irritated and as if he were going to beat the crap out of something.

"No holding back, right?" He asked as his lips twitched up into a smirk.

"Right!" I nodded.

Boy, this is going to be fun.

It was so hard for me to believe that such a horrible dream, the hell that my imagination had allowed me to see, could turn into such a sweet heaven. Levi was my heaven, my source of bliss and pure happiness. He could take any nightmare and turn it into my paradise, as long as he was there I didn't care about anything else.

A/N: I wasn't too sure about this chapter, I think Levi seems a bit OOC at times but I hope it wasn't too bad.
