Levi's POV:

Tonight was the study session with Alvin, and I was unbelievably nervous. Although Alvin called it a date, he was probably just messing with me. I didn't quite understand why I was so nervous, but I knew that I wanted to impress him.

It was strange how I sought his approval, but wouldn't anyone want to? If they were going to the most popular guy's house, then surely they would want to make a good impression.

Since it was just a casual hang out at his place, I decided to wear a comfortable outfit. My go-to style was always comfortable, and I hated tight clothing.

With almost all my outfits, I tend to wear mainly loose or baggy clothes and usually just throw on whatever I can find. My fashion choice is not picky and although I may look like a hobo, at least I am always comfortable.

When I was finally ready to leave my house, I jumped in my car and drove off to Alvin's house. As my car approached Alvin's property, I felt the pace of my heartbeat quicken and my palms begin to sweat.

I kept reassuring myself that this was normal and that anyone would be nervous, but the more I said it, the more I second guessed myself.

"Why am I actually nervous?"

Before I could think about a reasonable answer, I noticed Alvin at my car window, signalling for me to put my window down.

I obliged and greeted him, as he escorted me into his estate. The whole house was extravagant and well kept, almost like a royal castle. Though this claim was an over exaggeration, I still expressed my thoughts.

"You have a very lovely home."

I said, blushing only a little.

"Thank you ! I really appreciate it."

He gave me a warm smile, that made a jolt of electricity run through my body. Alvin seemed to notice my reaction and stared at me, confused.

I began to stammer, trying to think of a worthy excuse for the situation.

"I- Um-Well-"

Alvin continued to stare at me, with the same clueless expression he had plastered on his face, this whole conversation.

Alvin's POV:

I didn't understand why Levi seemed so flustered and waited for an explanation, but all that came out of his mouth was mumbling.

"You're kind of cute when you're like this."

The words slipped off my tongue, before I could realize what I was saying. Levi, who had been an awkward mess only a few moments ago, now had a face covered in bright red.

The embarrassment I felt was unbearable and I quickly apologized, while covering my mouth in shock.

"I'm sorry I-"

Levi interrupted my apology and fidgeted with his thumbs.

"Never mind it, I know you were just joking."

Was I joking though? That must have been true, it wasn't like I actually thought he was cute. Right?

"Y-Yeah, I was joking, that's all.."

For some reason, I felt like I was lying, but I decided to shrug it off and lead Levi to my room.

"We can study here, if you'd like."

Levi looked around my room and walked toward the bed.

"Your house is very nice, Alvin."

He sat on my bed and continued to observe his surroundings.

I sat down on a chair in front of him and replied.

"Thanks, what do you want to do for the project?"

Levi looked around the room trying to think of an idea, but ended up with none.

"Sorry, I don't really know.."

He looked embarrassed, so I tried to reassure him.

"Oh no worries, we can think later. Do you wanna watch a movie in the meantime?"

Levi's eyes widened and for a second and I thought I saw something pink on his face.

"S-sure we could watch a movie t-together.."

He seemed to be stuttering a lot, but I ignored it and started to browse the movie catalog.

Levi's POV:

Why am I acting so awkward ??

I couldn't understand why Alvin made my heart flutter and made my cheeks go pink. We were supposed to be enemies, but maybe I didn't want that. Maybe I wanted to be his friend, or something more..

Alvin continued to look through all the movies, until he stopped on one.

The Notebook.

"A romance movie??"

I didn't realize how distressed I sounded, and apologized.

"I mean, I guess we could watch a romance movie.."

Alvin asked if I was sure and I nodded.

He shrugged, pressed play, and got up to leave.

"Where are you going?"

My eyes followed him, as he got closer to the door.

"Oh, I'm getting popcorn. Want any?"

I shook my head dismissively, and he continued out the door.

The opening credits started and I watched intently, waiting for Alvin to come back.

About five minutes into the movie, and Alvin came back with a bucket of popcorn in hand. The aroma wafted into the air, and I suddenly regretted not asking for some.

Alvin sat down on the bed, beside me and watched the T.V screen.

He grabbed a handful of popcorn every few minutes and popped each one into his mouth.

While we watched the movie, I had a sudden craving for popcorn and decided that Alvin probably wouldn't mind if I took some of his. My eyes stayed on the TV screen, as my hand reached into the bucket of popcorn.

I felt fur rub against my hand and I realized that what I had grabbed, was not popcorn. Alvin's hand was under my own and he didn't bother escaping my grasp.

"A-Alvin I'm sorry I was trying to get the popco-"

My words were cut off by soft luscious lips and I gasped at the sudden contact. Alvin's face was pressed against mine and I couldn't help but fall deeply into the kiss.

Was this wrong? But, it just felt so right...

Suddenly, a loud knock came from outside Alvin's door and it creaked open to reveal a shocked figure.

Alvin broke our kiss and pushed himself off me.

"What are you doing here, Simon?!"
