Color [ Levi x Reader AU]

Chapter 38

Levi's pov:

I woke up to the sound of piano keys. The sweet melody drifting into my ears, humming a sweet sensation telling me that today is definitely a good one.

I dashed down the stairs to see who was the one emitting these sounds. It couldn't be Y/N, she doesn't know how to play.

Or so I thought.

I saw her playing the keyboard gracefully. Her fingers gliding from key to key. A beautiful sight to see if you ask me.

This brat didn't tell me she could play; if she didn't play right now, I wouldn't have known otherwise.

I walked up to hear steadily. Opening my arms, trying to sneak up a warm embrace from behind. She was so focused on the music piece that she didn't notice my presence behind her.

I carefully snaked my arms around her waist taking her in the hug. She was surprised by my sudden gesture that her hands lifted away from the keyboard. The keyboard that was probably brought here.

"I didn't know you could play," I said lazily. I just woke up so it was no surprise that I still had my bed hair.

She looked at my lazy eyes and unattended self, ruffling my hair and kissing me by the cheek. She greeted me good morning, a smile beautiful painting her gorgeous features.

So early in the morning, yet I won't complain. If I'd be woken up like this everyday, I wouldn't complain at all.

A morning with her, a day with her, a life with her; I'd be using up all my luck.

If it would be anyone else waking me up like this at this hour, I would've ransacked the whole house. That would be too much, probably just curse at them.

However, it was her; I have no objections to living life like this everyday, if I had the choice.

"I'm sorry woke you," her voice murmuring in a soft tone, enough for me to hear. I bury my head into the crook of her neck and hum as affirmation.

"I'm sorry," she apologised. I shook my head gently to ease her that she wasn't at fault.

How the fuck did I become this soft. I've become softer than a plushie. Not to mention me becoming more clingy.

I've been used to her company, her touch, her presence. I wouldn't be surprised that I'd even cry over her. Hell, I don't even know what I'd do without her at this rate.

I'm getting used to her, I'm afraid that if I might lose her, I'll lose myself in the process.

If so, let me just enjoy the angel in front of me, here beside me, the one with me right now. I'll savour every moment.

"Levi, don't fall asleep. I don't want drool on me."

"Tch, I don't drool," I immediately stood up and turned away to wipe my face, checking if I do actually have drool.

Thank Satan's ass that I don't.

I could hear faint chuckling from behind. Y/N. This dumbass really got to me.

"You really thought you had drool?"

"No."

"I'm leaving you with the benefit of the doubt."

"Tch."

"Uhuh, I love you too."

I turn to her with those words spitting right out of her mouth. She said that she'll say it more often, and she really did. I can't believe it. I didn't think she would.

A light smile forms on my lips as I nodded and turn away to go to the washroom.

"HA. I SAW THAT!" I could hear very well. Too well that I think my ears are on the verge of tearing up to bleed.

"I can hear you," I stop mid track on my way to the washroom to face her.

"Good. I just wanted to say that that smile made my day. Keep that in mind."

She never fails to make me happy. The warm feeling I feel inside whenever she's around, whenever I see her, of even at the slight sound of her voice. I think I'm about to go mental.

I nodded and turned away, headed to the washroom—again.

Today wasn't as bad as I thought. I was happy with my morning, I wonder what the afternoon brings, hopefully not shit.

"Do you wanna know why I suddenly know how to play the piano?" Y/N basically wanted me to ask. She was wiggling her brows like a madman.

"No, you're capable of anything," I teased her, although I did want to know how she earned that achievement in such a short period of time.

"i knew you'd ask," she said with pleasure. She's losing her sanity.

"You're crazy."

"For you, that is," she finished. I just chuckled lightly as she bursted out in a fit of laughter. I don't think I'll get enough.

She sounds like a megaphone—she's laughing so loud. Dear Lord.

She continued on about how she learned the piano or keyboard from Eren's mother. She was capable of teaching her so why not. She even asked Y/N to be her student, but she refused. She said she wanted me to teach her if ever she wanted to learn the piano. I'm glad that this brat knows how to rely on me. I know that I'm not a burden, but someone she needs too.

She continued rambling on as we sat on the couch. I wasn't bored, nor was I drowsy, I was enjoying her telling me about herself. I just listened intently to what she has to say.

Our conversation was suddenly interrupted by the sound of my phone's ringtone going off. I have a message?

I open my phone to see that it was an unknown number. Y/N stopped her story and leaned in closer, to which I obliged. I pecked her cheeks as I had the chance to. She then got flustered and hid in the crook of my neck.

After a few moments, she sat back up to see the message that put our interesting conversation to a halt.

:Levi, I like you.

The message was sent from an unknown number so my brows were furrowed. Y/N was confused. I know that she trusts me and I trust her.

"Who is that?" She asks intently giving me the same look I have on my face as well.

"I don't know either. Should I ask?" She nodded her head. I knew she'd find this interesting. Weirdo.

:Who the fuck are you?

"You're enjoying this aren't you?"

"Hell yeah," she smirked. She was the one who sent the message. She snatched my phone out of my hands immediately taking it into hers.

Her chuckles faded away as soon as she read the message the unknown number sent. I leaned in closer to have a look. And to my surprise, it was..

:Petra Ral

"What the fuck?" I exclaimed.

"Exactly, same thought."

We were both astounded by what we just saw. There were no arguments, we just talked it out and questioned each other gathering thoughts as to how and why she likes me.

Eventually, we ended up deciding to block the number.

A/N: I'm deciding to finish this book by the next chapter or so.
