▪Steel Eyed Saviour▪ (~Eren x Levi~)

.:Secrets:.

**Sorry it took so long, guys. But, I'm snowed in so today I had plenty of time to sleep in and write. Enjoy! This is in the POV of Eren**  

    With yesterdays eventful run-in with Mikasa and Armin, I was incredibly happy to learn that they were moving in just down the hall. Levi leaves tomorrow, which makes my heart hurt. Eren, you fool! Stop thinking like that! Currently, it was 5:15 a.m., which was 2 hours before I normally woke up. I was just laying in my bed, scrolling throughTwitter. Clicking off my phone, I turned over in my bed. I wasn't sure what I expected, but what was there caught me way off guard.

     A peacefully sleeping Levi was next to me. I noticed the door to my room cracked just enough to where I could see a messed up blanket on the couch. I felt my face begin to flush, and put a hand over my mouth to stop myself from making some stupid noise. After a few minutes, I removed the hand from my mouth and started to roll over. A cold hand placed itself on my arm, keeping me from going anywhere.

"I'm....cold...." Levi groggily muttered, still with closed eyes.

"O-Okay, Levi..." I whispered, my face blushing harshly as he pulled himself into my embrace. Not sure where to place my arms, I threw one over him and placed the other under myself.

     Being in this situation made me smile. My heart soared, and my mind couldn't figure out why. What was this? I closed my eyes, resting my chin on Levi's head and falling back asleep.

"Eren, just trust me on this." Levi smirked, taking my wrist and leading me through an up-hill trail in the woods. I brought my arm to my forehead, shielding my face from any branches that surprisingly came up. "Levi, are you sure? We've been on this trail for a while now." I complained, lowering my arm. We ran some more, Levi ignoring my pleas to stop and rest. Once we reached a peak, I put my hands on my knees and gasped for air. "Eren, quit being a lightweight and look up." I felt a fist nudge my shoulder. "Fine! What's so important about-" I stopped once my eyes had set on the sight before me. Below the mountain ledge we were on, was a luscious meadow. I stood up straight, my mouth hanging open in reaction to the sheer beauty. "I love you, brat." I felt Levi intertwining his fingers in mine.

"Eren! Wake up!" I heard Levi yelling at me. He was standing at my door,fully dressed for the day.

"Wuh..what time is it?" I asked, rubbing my eyes and sitting up in bed.

"It's 7:45, you dink." Levi turned and left the door, sitting on the couch.

"7:45?! Dammit!" I cursed myself...I was going to be late for work.

     Rushing around my room, I threw on some random outfit and hastily tied on the Starbucks apron. Stuffing cookies in my mouth, I tossed half of one to Otto and grabbed my phone from my room. Checking for any missed alerts, I shoved the phone in my pocket and ran to the door.

"Have fun, Eren." Levi called. I waved, cookies still making my cheeks puffy.

     I ran down the stairs, hoping they would be quicker. Getting to the lobby, I noticed moving men carrying several boxes. Today must be Armin and Mikasa's move in day. Running out the front doors, I slumped myself down on a bench to wait for the bus. Once it finally arrived, I noticed I was the only one on. Happily taking one of the seats at the very front, I took out my phone, to which I had a text from Levi.

     "Levi: Otto and I hate being alone...-sad emoji-" attached was a picture of Levi face-to-face with my German Shepherd. I grinned at the sight, saving the picture. Going into my photo album and finding it, I saved it as my home/lock screen backgrounds. Feeling the bus come to a screeching halt, I slipped my phone back into my pocket and walked off, thanking the driver. Opening the door to Starbucks, I noticed an almost empty shoppe.
