Erwin grew up in a time period where being gay wasn't necessarily a good thing. He'd had thoughts about it, especially about his bestfriend, but had he ever acted on those feelings he'd be disowned in a heartbeat. He's 23 with a beautiful girlfriend and a stable job, he doesn't have time to worry about his parents hating him. He knows his best friend is gay, he came out to him a decade ago. And knowing this makes it even harder to control himself around him, he wants to kiss Levi more than anything. But he's not gay. 'Gay people are repulsive' , 'I only hang out with Levi out of pity.' He would tell himself. But recently, his feelings have begun to overpower his thoughts of common sense.

Erwin walked in the door, ready to greet his girlfriend with flowers and chocolates, as today was their 5 year anniversary. But as he walked in, he was met with loud moaning and his girlfriend being absolutely raw-dogged by her co-worker that she specifically told Erwin not to worry about. He dropped the vase and chocolates, not believing what the fuck he was seeing. Marie gasped and pushed the man off of her.
"W-why are you home.." She asked, in pure shock.
Erwin didn't speak. He couldn't speak. His entire world came crashing down in a matter of seconds. His words were caught in his throat and he just watched both of them quickly put their clothes back on.
"Get....out of my house." Erwin finally said, glaring down at Marie.
She began to cry and begged Erwin not to do this to her. Her co-worker grabbed her and had to practically drag her out of the room. He was smaller than Erwin, and didn't wanna find out if Erwin was the 'i'm gonna whoop your ass for fucking my girl' type. Erwin went to bed early that night, not understanding what he did wrong. He deleted Maries' contact from his phone, all their photos, packed up all of her things and left them on the front lawn. He cried knowing he could get rid of her, but not their memories.
His alarm sounded that next morning, but he couldn't bring himself to get out of bed. He had to get to work, and he was 40 minutes late. It wasn't until his door was unlocked and he heard the familiar light footsteps. He wanted to spring up and jump into Levis' arms, but decided to just wait for him to come into his room. He shifted his head slowly as his bedroom door opened, light creeping in. Levi turned on the light and looked around the room. Pictures of Erwin and Marie were torn off of the walls and her stuff was cleared out, not a single thing left behind. He sat on the bed next to Erwin, running his fingers through the matted blonde hair.
"What happened?" He asked softly.
"She cheated with that dumb, stupid, small dicked--"
"Erwin." Levi cut him off.
Erwin calmed himself down and spoke again. "She cheated on me, with her co-worker."
Levi nodded and slowly peeled the covers off of Erwins' body. Erwin had barely bothered to take his clothes off before he went to sleep, and still had his shirt on. Levi grabbed him by the collar and yanked him up into a sitting position. Erwin groaned groggily as Levi practically dragged him into the bathroom down the hallway. He leaned Erwin against the sink and unbuttoned his wrinkled shirt. Erwin looked a total mess, his hair was everywhere, he was only in underwear, he had red rings under his eyes-- from crying. Levi turned on the water and tested it until it was the temperature Erwin liked.
He motioned towards the shower and Erein rolled his eyes like a toddler, taking off his underwear and stepping inside. Levi left him in there, as Erwin could bathe himself. Later, when Erwin stepped out, Levi handed him a pair of clothes and combed his hair down for him. Erwin tried to do something hisself, (embarassed Levi was taking care of him) like tie his tie. But unfortunately, he was too pissed off to focus and kept fucking up. He was getting frustrated and was contemplating punching the mirror until he felt small hands wrap around his. This was out of character for Levi--and out of character for him too. Usually its the other way around, Levi overreacting and Erwin helping him calm down. He watched intently as Levi tied his tie, he then realized they had matching ties.
Levi led him to the kitchen, where he'd already cooked something while Erwin was showering. Erwin smiled warmly as he ate, he always loved Levis' cooking. Marie never did anything like this for him, not that she had to--but it would've been quite nice. Erwin finished his food and stood up, brushing crumbs off of his suit jacket. Levi discarded his plate into the sink and returned to Erwin.
"Thank you, Levi." Erwin smiled, thankful his friend had a soft spot for him.
"Shut up, don't mention it." Levi spat back.
Nevermind.
Erwin laughed at Levi's change in atmosphere, which caused Levi to start laughing. They laughed for a few minutes, uncontrollably. Erwin stopped to admire Levi, who was still trying to hide his laugh. He let his emotions wash over him and dipped down, kissing Levi. Levi made a surprised noise in his throat and stumbled back, expecting anything but this. Erwin pulled back as Levi stared at him wide eyed. The weight of the situation hadn't hit Erwin yet, as Levi cupped his face and pulled him back down in a kiss--nothing really mattered. Levi put his leg up and Erwin hooked his hand under it. They pulled back for air and panted, a string of saliva connecting their lips. Then it hit Erwin.
He just kissed a man.
He stumbled away from Levi, watching the flash of hurt disappear from his eyes just as quickly as it appeared.
"I'm-I'm sorry Levi I-"
"Erwin-"
"I need to go, I'm sorry. I'll see you at work." Erwin said, hurriedly rushing out the door.
"Erwin, wait!" Levi shouted after him.
But it was too late, Erwin was already almost at his car, and Levi was left alone to deal with whatever the fuck just happened.
