My Story of Love (Ereri/Riren)

Chapter 45

When Eren got back in he still had the cigarette. I looked at him.

"I told you to put it out." I said quietly.

"I know. Drive." Eren smashed the cigarette against the outside of the moving van and dropped it.

We sat the next 10 minutes in silence. Once I parked and turned off the car, I looked at Eren. "Babe, are you okay?"

Eren was still in his seat. He looked over at me and smiled. "Yes, I'm okay."

"Kiss me."

Eren gave me a look of suprise and then smiled. He leaned over and pulled me by my shirt towards him. He kissed my cheek and then my lips. I was happy.

----Eren's POV----

That was a year ago, it is now March 15th. Levi and I now been dating for 2 years and living together for 1. Living together has had its own difficulties, money, space, all of my crap. But we made it work. Levi taught me how to speak general french, too.

"Oii!" I heard Levi call from downstairs.

"Wha-at!?" I whined back.

"I want to take you out. Be ready by 8!"

I looked at the time. 7:30pm.

"Thanks for the warning!" I yelled as I crawled out of bed. "Am I dressing fancy or not?"

"Stop yelling, I'm right here."

I jumped at the sound of his voice. "I thought you were still downstairs."

"Dress in a tuxedo or something."

8:00pm

No matter how many times I see Levi dressed in a tuxedo I always get the same feeling. I screamed.

"Eren! Calm it. What's your problem?"

"Your face brings out my inner fan girl."

"Get in the car, Eren the fangirl." Levi smiled. I love his smiles. I love his hair, his eyes, his lips, his body, his stubborness, his lack of a sense of humor, his moodiness. I love Levi Ackerman.

I happily jumped into the car. I always felt good about myself when I dressed like this. Levi seems to look at me more. The only time I can tell he's looking at me a lot is when I'm naked.

I didn't ask where we are going or why. I'm just happy because its been a few months since we've gone out to a fancy place. I bounced around happily in my seat. I think Levi wants to kill me.

I sang to myself, "I'm going on a date. I'm going on an a date.."

"What are you? 2?" Levi had a neutral voice, thank god.

"What are you? 2?" I mocked playfully and then laughed. "Im 22 thank you very much, gramps."

"What did you just call me?" Oopsies.

"I didn't call you anything. I said cramps." I held onto my stomach as if I was cramping.

"I'll kill you."

When we arrived at the restaurant, my jaw dropped. This place is drop dead gorgeous. I almost forgot how to walk and stumbled slightly. Levi snickered and I glared at him.

When we sat down Levi said he'd be right back and walked away. A waiter came up to me and starting speaking. I could understand some but I wasn't comfortable so I said the line Levi and I practiced constantly.

"I'm sorry, I don't speak much french, but my partner does. So when he returns, please talk to him."

The waiter nodded his head and went to another table. I let out a huge sigh and Levi randomly appeared in the seat in front of me.

"Oh god! When did you get here?"

"Right after you scared out waiter off with your terrible french." I blushed.

"Was it that bad? I was nervous okay!"

"I'm just kidding. Your french is fine."

"Thank goodness. You look really attractive, Levi. I mean you're always attractive but this is just insane."

"You look great too, Eren." Levi smiled at me as he sipped at his red wine.

"I'm so hungry." I groaned. "I haven't eaten all day."

"What do you want to eat?"

"Food. Food is good."

"Thanks, Eren. I was just stressing so hard over whether to give you food or my wallet to eat."

"Technically, I-"

"Don't even start it mister."

I laughed and placed my hand over Levi's on top of the table. I really do love him.

"Okay, but seriously. Just feed me. Pasta is yummy, burgers are yummy. Food is yummy."

"You're yummy." Levi whispered softly.

"I don't know what you mean by that but thank you anyway."

We ordered our food and continued talking. I rarely shut up but
Levi replied to almost everything. Halfway through the meal he stood up.

"Where are you going?"

"Nowhere."

Levi walked over to me and knelt down on one knee. I heard some "awwhh's" in the background.

"Eren, will you marry me?"
