LEVI'S POV

You and Levi had spent several minutes lying next to each other, still trying to catch your breaths. As he brushed his fingers through strokes of his black hair, he gently closed his eyes, trying to take in every sensation in his body.

He felt so...different around you. Complete. He didn't have to pretend or perform, he didn't have to be tough or mean. He didn't feel like he was a cripple when he made love to you, and he didn't question how he felt about you for a single moment.

Every feeling, every sensation he was experiencing beside you made complete and utter sense to him. Even if he didn't understand exactly why he felt this way about you, he didn't have to.

Levi then slowly turned his face to meet your gaze. You were laying with your eyes locked on the ceiling, your lips parted as you breathed deeply and rapidly. He observed your glossy lips and his mind took him back to your taste and just how addicting it was for him.

Rain started to pour: soon enough it had completely taken out the bonfire outside the tent. Levi loved the sound of rain, it would usually be one of the things that would help him sleep. Something about the smell of rain and the violent sound of storms would bring him inner peace.

But, sometimes - around certain dates - it would also bring back terrible memories of missions... of lost loved ones. Though, there was something nostalgic about it to him. It would take him back to memories with the people he cared about the most: even in pain, he appreciated when his loved ones came across his memory.

It didn't matter if those weren't happy memories - for seconds, he would find himself reunited with the people who were forever gone from his life. And even if it wasn't quite real, it sure felt real to him.

You then met his gaze - your eyes narrow and filled with light and playfulness. Something about your expression made Levi's heart sink into his chest. There you were, laying completely naked by his side, that odd pendant decorating your chest and collarbones.

He then turned his whole body to the side and placed his fingers over your abdomen - in slow, circular motions, Levi continued to stroke your soft skin. He admired you as he did this, observing every inch of your body as he felt you quietly chuckle.

'That tickles', you sighed as you continued to look into his eye. The sensation of your skin against his burned him deeply.

He met your gaze, softly smiling, now placing his hand onto your chest, and then on your pendant. He grabbed it with his fingers and looked into it in detail; it reflected it's crimson light in such a way... it was quite hard to describe for him. It almost felt like a part of your body, something that couldn't quite be separated from you as a whole.

He hated that idea - knowing how much you had felt it controlled you, knowing how little anyone understood it. But Levi found solace in your new theory: maybe it was suppoused to lay on your chest for a reason. Maybe it was shielding you, after all.

He then felt your hand place itself onto his, your eyes still locked on his.

'Do you think it will work? Will I see Ymir when I take this off?', you whispered, a slight frown in your expression. Levi could sense the fear in your tone - he felt sick to his stomach, as he knew he wouldn't be able to make you feel less scared and worried.
