"You're ridiculous," Levi flicked my forehead, standing over me as I crouched down to catch my breath.

...

OK ???

AND YOU'RE SHORT . BEING RIDICULOUS IS ACTUALLY ONE OF MY CHARM POINTS <3

"It's your fault really- you attacked me to begin with," I frowned, dusting off my dress as I stood.

if i was in pants i would've destroyed you

"You were the one eavesdropping."

OK FAIR BUT .

THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT ME

AND IT WASN'T ANYTHING BAD .

NOT THAT I NEED AN EGO BOOST OR ANYTHING

IT'S JUST NICE TO HEAR THAT THE GOSSIP IS IN MY FAVOR FOR ONCE

"You would've done the same," I shrugged his comment off. "Besides, they didn't know that I was there until you showed up."

it all circles back ..

levi is the root of all evil

and i love him despite that <3 i should get a raise

"How was I supposed to know you were avoiding being seen?"

THAT FEELS SELF-EXPLANATORY

"BECAUSE I WAS LEANING AGAINST A DOOR LISTENING IN ON A CONVERSATION INSTEAD OF GOING IN TO JOIN IT ????"

COMMON SENSE ??

"In my defense you're we-" I cut him off with a glare, "you have quirks."

that isn't any better .

that's actually worse

i would rather be weird than quirky- quirky is trying too hard

"I didn't even mean to eavesdrop initially- I was looking for you."

YOU WON'T BELIEVE IT

MIKASA TOLERATES ME

MAYBE WE'LL GO ON A DATE NEXT OR SOMETHING

"I don't believe that for a second," Levi's gaze shifted to something past me, out of a window.

duchess ackerman divorces husban-

"You caught me the man I was looking for was likable- I wonder where he went?" I mocked, looking around exaggeratedly.

"Should I help you search? He sounds insufferable. I don't know why you would-" a cold draft cut him off.

GHOST ??

"Is there a window open?" I glanced around, unknowingly I had chased Levi into one of the side rooms, specifically a room that led out to a certain hidden balcony.

oh-

"Was someone out there?" I glanced down the hidden corridor, beginning to walk towards it.

"I was," he paused, following after me, "I had a brief conversation with Eren."

ON OUR BALCONY ??

WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU

THAT'S OUR SPOT

"I can't believe you."

"What."

"YOU LET EREN ONTO OUR BALCONY ?? THAT'S A SPECIAL PLACE."

YOU'RE TAINTING THE MEMORY

"I-"

YOU WHAT

"IT'S OUR PLACE-"

levi ...

"DID YOU TAKE OTHER PEOPLE HERE BEFORE ME ???" I cut him off before he could speak.

"Eren a few times-"

"I can't believe that I'm on the same level as Eren to you- I'm supposed to be your wife."

I THOUGHT WE LOVED EACH OTHER

"Are we seriously doing this?"

"YEAH ??"

DOES THE NIGHT I DRAGGED YOU OUT TO GO SNEAKING AROUND YOUR OWN HOUSE MEAN NOTHING TO YOU ???

"You're being ridiculous."

"YOU'RE THE WORST."

I MEAN IT

"You have an entire ring of keys that all lead to hidden rooms and you decide to take Eren here-" I gasped in horror.

A BETRAYAL OF OUR LOVE

"I had no idea you existed," Levi sighed, "and to clarify I didn't take Eren out here while we were talking, I came by afterward."

...

"I just feel like maybe you should've saved a couple secret rooms and hideaways for your future significant other-"

a secret place that only exists for special plot-relevant scenes & to develop the romance between characters . that becomes a symbolic representation for one character opening up to another by letting them into said room or balcony in this case

a what

nothing- something i read in a book once <3

"Most of the keys belong to buildings off of this property," Levi chuckled, coming up next to me by the edge of the balcony. "Besides, I haven't taken Eren here in several years, I doubt he remembers this spot exists."

good i don't want eren knowing abt our special spot

but also

it's our special spot how dare he not be so invested in hating me that he knows everything about me </3 fake hater

"Last time the two of us were out here together I was scared of you," I muttered, looking out over the landscape below us.

well i wouldn't say scared

like i wasn't actually scared of levi . bc ... lets be honest i would win that fight

but i was scared of the (false) idea of levi that i had in my head

"Could've fooled me," he paused, "last time the two of us were here it was warm out."

can't handle the cold old man ??

"Are you trying to tell me something?"

"I'm cold."

ok

"Leave then," I rolled my eyes, still focused on the wintery landscape.

"I'm thinking of spending time in the library, I'll ask the kitchen to bring in snacks if you'd like-" he trailed off awkwardly.

the image of levi eating little cakes is going to make me smile

"Is that an invitation?" I turned towards him, beaming at my imagination.

"Come on," he huffed, reaching for my hand.

"You can just ask next time-"

"Whatever, come spend time with me," he rolled his eyes, pulling me along behind him.

even if you're walking in front of me i can see your blush

is asking me to spend time with you really the embarrassing part?

cute
