Goodbyes

A/N ;

so, i have no idea if telephones are
in the AOT verse, BUT microphones
are in AOT, and microphones and
telephones were created in the same
year i think ?? SO YEAH.
bear that in mind.

One Week Later ;

You sadly sat cross-legged on your bed, your lips curled into a permanent frown.

You sighed, hearing the 'click' of a bag as Levi folded a pristine, creaseless shirt into the left corner. Your fingers traced his navy tie, curving around the edges and ripples of the soft fabric.

The windows were tightly closed to avoid the cold, autumn air; rain fell against the shining glass that had been freshly cleaned by your boyfriend just an hour before.

You sighed once again, this time a little louder to get his attention as his head perked up.

Levi's eyebrow raised, his chin tilting up, "'you alright?"

"No."

He parted his lips before shifting his figure to sit beside you: his hand slowly traced down your back, making you shiver in place.

Levi leaned closer to you, his lips pressing to your cheek one before softly whispering into your ear: "What's wrong?"

You eased at his touch, your head falling onto his shoulder, "I don't want you to go."

"We've talked about this." He placed his hand against your head, ruffling your hair with a faint hint of a smile, "It's only for a few weeks."

Your eyes widened as your body jumped up, watching him flinch, "Yeah.. weeks."

His fingers traced your cheekbones, lacing around your jaw to pull you into an intimate kiss. His lips melted into yours; your hands held onto him by his waist.

"Y/N, we talked about this the other day.." He parted his lips from yours for a few moments, "It's part of my job to obey the Commander's wishes, not only as a Scout, but also as a friend. If they want me on the job, then that's that." He tilted his head, his fingertips resting against your chin, "Besides, Hange offered for you to come with me, as well. We could've had a good time together: hotels, travelling.. it could've been like a romantic get-away."

You shook your head, "I have too much work to complete, and they need Scouts to stay in Paradis incase anything happens. I want to stay on guard."

He paused.

Levi's head tilted with a disheartened frown, "You could still change your mind, you know.. Hange won't mind another person going along, especially if it's you."

You swallowed, lowering your head: you knew that it wasn't right to leave given the situation of the previous few weeks - and if anything happened in Paradis, at least they'd have four titans at the ready. You liked to stay precautious.

Levi sighed slowly, before pecking your lips, "Fine: I understand. I won't try to change your choice.." His grey eyes slowly drifted up to lock onto yours, "I'll miss you. It'll be weird not waking up beside you: or, not knowing how your day was."

You offered a gentle smile, smoothing out his black-blazer with your palms, "We can talk on the telephone."

Levi scoffed, "You forget we're in Paradis, Y/N, and not in Marley." Your boyfriend murmured, shaking his head, "I think in my life I've seen around three phones, including the one in the Barracks."
