New Kids (ERERI) *Currently Rewriting*

Chapter 8 (Rewritten)

Eren's POV

After what seemed like hours of being at the football game, it had finally came to an end. Every one got up and started leaving, including us. We all began walking to our cars since we were all going to my house. Erwin was going to come by later on to celebrate the teams win.

I couldn't stop thinking about the smile Levi gave me after finding out that he won the bet. His expression was genuine, and behind that stoic face he put on for show, he was definitely someone who softens up to you after time.

We were the last ones behind every one else as we were walking side by side. Both our hands were in our own pockets as we were engulfed by the silence between us. We finally got to our own cars and waited until everyone got in.

"I'll see you at my house, Levi", I turned to him before getting into Mikasa's car as he replied with a small 'mhm'. Instead of giving my friends my address, I just had everyone follow Mikasa's car.

It was quiet in the car, but I noticed Armin and Mikasa glancing at each other before Mikasa would look at me through the rear view mirror every so often. I shoot her a glare, to which she waved it off. After 30 minutes of driving home, we were finally here and everyone was able to park their car in my driveway.

"Eren, your house is huge!", Sasha exclaimed while she was downing on a hotdog from the game. Everyone began following me to my front door as I struggled a bit to insert my key into the keyhole.

"It's big..but it sure gets lonely", I said with a small laugh. A lot of 'woahs' came from everyone except Armin and Mikasa as they were already used to my house. Levi, on the other hand, seemed very unamused.

"Someone in here can definitely fix that!", I guess everyone was too focused on my house to hear Hange's side comment. She pointed at Levi who was now sitting on the couch before I scowled at her, only to earn a mischievous laugh.

I began my grand tour of my house. It was a two story house with a total of 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. My parents master bedroom was upstairs along with 2 guest rooms, and my bedroom was downstairs with the other 2 guest rooms. Only reason my bedroom was downstairs is because I am way too lazy to walk upstairs. My hallways were filled with family pictures, and a few portrait pictures of me as I grew up. There were a few pictures of Armin, Mikasa and I as well, which showed how inseparable we all are.

I spotted Levi studying one of my family portrait pictures as I walked up to him.

"It's just you in this house?", Levi question, one eyebrow was raised.

"Yep.. my dad is a travel doctor so he rarely comes home. Mom, on the other hand, she works in another country. So, it's just me. Sometimes Armin and Mikasa will sleepover just to fill the lonely void", I finished off. It was just the two of us in the hallway, and we made eye contact.

I noticed that his sterling grey eyes looked at me with lust. I couldn't help but stare as I watch him slowly close the gap between us. Is he going to kiss me?! I thought to myself as I shut my eyes closed.

Then, all I hear is his voice near my ear sending shivers down my spine. "Don't forget the bet we made", he said before pushing me out the way. Here I was, in the middle of the hallway, left dumbfounded by the little stunt he made. He turned back to me with a little smirk after seeing my reaction before making his way to the living room where everyone else was it.

---------------------------------------------------------

We ordered pizza once Erwin came by to celebrate his victory. It was a very enjoyable moment as I watched everyone enjoy each other's presence. Many laughs were shared, including mines.

But I couldn't help but notice the side glances I would catch from Levi and Hange who were sitting across of me, Armin, and Mikasa. Hange would whisper into Levi's ear and he would react either with a scowl or his eyebrows raised.

Armin, on the other hand, was talking to Erwin when I noticed how Erwin had his hand rested on Armin's thigh. I nudged Mikasa to get her to look and we both smiled at the sight.

It was decided that we were going to watch something together and Hange had put on 'All Of Us Are Dead' on my Netflix. I guess I was the only one who has already watched all the episodes as everyone else was hooked on. I sighed and began cleaning up so that I wouldn't have to do it when everyone left. It was a Friday night, and I wanted to sleep in the next day.

I made my way to the kitchen with plates in my hand when I heard a few footsteps following behind me. I turn around only to be met with Levi, again. I stepped back a little bit, not expecting it to be him.

"Oh..hey. Came to help me clean up?", I quietly laughed as I put the plates in the sink. "Sure", he softly said before grabbing the rest of the dishes from the other room. I was now washing the dishes while I noticed Levi watching me. There was an uncomfortable silence between us, but I could also feel a growing tension as well.

"So that bet that we made", he started inching closer to me. I replied with an 'mhm', paying no mind that he was getting closer and closer although my heart was beating fast. Once the gap between us has closed, he turned off the sink before I could say anything.

Next thing you know, I was pinned against the wall by the smaller man. I winced at the fact that he was holding on too tight while water was dripping down my hands from washing the dishes. His gaze never left mines until his mouth was by my ear. I breathed shakily, scared of what he was going to do.

"You better do as I say for the next week", he growled into my ear. Before pulling away, he placed soft kisses onto my neck to which I relaxed to. I kind of enjoyed it, but that enjoyment soon left when he let go of me and looked at me with a smirk before walking back to our group.

Here I was, looking dumb and left speechless, by what this shorter man has done to me.

And the dishes still weren't finished.
