And then it was just two. You and Levi. Alone in a dusty old stockroom somewhere in the castle. Each stood on opposite sides of the room but the silence made you feel like you were standing right in front of him. You tried to focus on your breathing as Levi's gaze continued to drill into you.
Levi moved away from the wall as he approached you. The sound of his boots hitting the floor fell in sync with your heartbeat. The scent of peppermint hitting your nose as he stood in front of you, much closer than you had anticipated. Staring into his cold gray eyes as it reflected your nervous appearance. I'm going to kill Hange for even suggesting this. You thought to yourself, swallowing dryly.
"If you don't want to...." Levi murmured in a low tone. ".... tell me now." You bit the inside of your cheek. Hesitating. You observed his pale and exhausted appearance. If he continues like this for the duration of the mission, he'll die sooner or later. Sighing as you closed your eyes, you nodded for him to continue.
Levi's hand moved towards you, his fingers brushing against yours lightly. Dropping his gaze away from your face as he interlocked his fingers with yours. You barely stopped yourself from flinching as you felt the cold temperature of his skin on yours. However, you couldn't stop yourself from shivering as a warm sensation crept up from where the two of you were touching.
"Do you feel anything?" Levi whispered, lightly squeezing your hand. You shook your head. "No." You replied back, happy that you managed to keep your voice stable despite the flutter you felt in your chest as Levi rubbed his thumb across your knuckles.
Levi's other hand moved towards the back of your head, cradling it as he leaned his face close to yours. "Y/N." He shakily whispered as he pressed his lips against yours in a chaste kiss. Oh, fuck. You thought to yourself realizing that Hange was right all along. The warmth you felt from Levi touching you was nothing compared to the tingling sensation happening all over your body as Levi gently kissed you.
Y/N. You heard his voice inside your head clearly, as if it was your own thought. Your lips trembled as Levi broke the kiss to peer into your eyes. "Did you feel anything?" He asked in a gentle whisper as his thumb caressed your cheek. Your gaze wavered. "No." You weakly replied, dropping your gaze to the floor.
You pulled your hand away from his grasp. "We tried." You muttered under your breath, faking a smile. "It's not me." You uttered taking a step back. "I have to go now." You said as you walked away from him towards the door. Keeping your pace relaxed but quick. I have to get out of here fast. You thought as your hand clasped around the doorknob opening it.
Before Levi slammed it back close with his palm, placing his hands on either side of your head, caging you in between the door and his body. "Liar." He whispered into your ear as he leaned in to give it a light nip. "It's you, Y/N." He murmured. "You're mine."
