Promise me [Levi Ackerman x OC]

XXX: Spotless

"Hazel, tell shortie that my glasses ain't shitty!"

"Thanks heavens you are here, make them shut up." Miche pleaded her covering his face with his hands.

"Alright, kids, behave yourselves." She separated them with her hands in their chests. "I have your consolation prize, Miche." She went to the desk and pulled the things out. "There you go, and give this to Nanaba please." She gave him his lotion which he smelled right away and took the can of wax. "Erwin, Han." Hazel took the can for Erwin, handed to him and Hange was right behind her before she said her name excited taking her lenses.

"Thanks, baby. Goodbye, everyone." Hange gave Hazel a kiss in the cheek and flew away with her new microscope's lenses to her lab.

"How did it go?" Erwin was preoccupied for her and her checkup.

"I'll talk to you later, but everything is fine." She gave him her usual warm smile. "Miche, I ordered the cadets to clean up everything, mind to supervise?" He nodded, pleased with his new lotion.

Levi was sitting in the couch where Hazel left him, looking what she was doing. "I brought you something, come with me." She walked to the door with him following her closely. "See you at dinner, boys."

"Where were you?"

Hazel ignored his question and kept walking to her office. She entered and let the door opened for him to come in.

"I asked you something, Haze." He softened his serious tone with her nickname.

She walked to a counter and pulled out a set of tea letting it over the desk. "Take a seat, Levi." She said in a low and soft voice taking the teapot and go to her room. After two minutes, she came back with hot water and putted it in the desk, pulling the bag of chamomile out, she introduce some flowers to infused the water.

Levi hadn't take a seat and walked behind her grabbing her by the waist and bring her closer to him. "Say something."

Both were facing each other, with piercing gaze making hard to concentrate. Hazel looked down to his lips then his eyes again, she shortened the distance between them taking him by his cravat. "I said: take a seat, Levi. It's an order." She let go from him and his grip.

He closed his eyes defeated and did what she said, sitting in the chair with crossed arms pouting.

She proceed to serve two cups of the tea giving one to him being careful to not spill it. "Here." He opened his eyes by the mild smell, curious he took the cup in his unique way from the rail and give it a little taste. "What do you think?" She was sitting in front of him over the desk, with both hands together waiting for his response.

"Not bad." He let the cup in the desk and she grab hers taking a sip before delight herself with the tea, she sighed in satisfaction. "Where do you get it?"

"Okay, let's talk. I went to Shingashina and..."

"To see your lover?" He interrupted her and crossed his arms again and furrowed his forehead, sour tone.

"I told you not to worry about what they said about me." She copied his posture.

"You also said we need to keep distance, and here we are just the two of us." He rose his eye brow challenging her.

"I know, so don't get used to this. I was trying to do something nice and you ruined the moment." She stepped down the desk clearly disappointed.

He took her hand before she could round the desk. "Sorry." She let go of his hand and went to her chair in the other side, sitting with her feet over the desk.

"I don't want to talk about it anymore. Instead, tell me what happened with Miche." She avoided to see his face.

"Nothing, we made a bet of who was stronger."

A knock in the door interrupted the tension and Hazel felt grateful, she couldn't keep talking with him at the moment. "Come in!" Both looked at the door to saw who it was, revealing that Rose was with cleaning supplies also surprised to see both there. "What is it Rose?" Hazel voice was exasperated and dull.

"Uh, hm." She was kind of nervous. "Is my duty to clean your office, Captain. May I come in?"

"Sure. Ackerman, help her. I want this office spotless."

She stood without saying anything else and walked opening the door to her room and shutting it behind her leaving them to clean. Levi couldn't decipher what happened there. Did it really affected her what he said?

"I don't understand what does she want us to clean, this is already spotless." Rose was looking all around.

"The top shelves. She doesn't like to clean them." Levi faintly smirked remembering how she used to trade cleaning duties back at the underground city making Furlan to cleaned them for her.

"And, what were you doing here? I thought you were sent to the Commander's office." Rose was beside the desk curiously watching the two tea cups unfinished.

"Nothing, let's clean." He let her clueless, and took the duster to start cleaning. He stepped in front of the first shelf looking to the top realizing it was too high for him.

Hazel entered her room and took her clothes off to shower herself after the long ride she had. As the water ran down her body, the thought about what she had expected to happen and what actually did invaded her mind.

She was about to tell him about the little herb store that he might like, about how the people has started to talk about him, about the girl who resembled him, about the ocean Eren had talk about and maybe about what happened to Declan. In all this time she hasn't had the moment to tell him he was gone too.

She putted on casual clothes and arrange her hair in a pony tail making her look younger and innocent. Before coming out her room and go and talk to Erwin, the screaming from the office reminded her that Rose and Levi were there.

"Just finish already!" was like a growl of effort.

"Wait, a bit more! Yes, right there! I'm done!" Rose was screaming triumphantly.
