A knock at [Y/N]'s dorm door made her jump slightly. The shirt that was in her hands ended up flying into the air and landed on the floor next to her. Who the hell could that be?

She walked over to the door and looked out of the peephole into the hallway. She was caught off guard by the person standing outside.. hands in their pockets, hoodie over their head, eyes not even visible. She would be able to point out that signature pose, jawline, and permanent scowl anywhere, though.

She turned and leaned her back against the door for a moment. A small smile and subtle blush crept up her cheeks. That feeling in her gut was unmistakable. Butterflies. A feeling she didn't get as often anymore. She couldn't believe it wasn't even her own 'boyfriend' giving them to her. It was Levi. She turned back around and nervously opened the door.

"Levi.. what are you doing here? How did you.."

"Hange told me where your building was located on campus and what your dorm room number was. Hope that's alright.." He glanced down quickly and noticed [Y/N] was wearing nothing but a black bra and a pair of black leggings. His eyes wandered up and down as if he was unable to control them. He gulped. "You.. um.. going outside like that in the middle of November?"

"Oh.." [Y/N] looked down. "..fuck. I'm sorry." She ran and grabbed the shirt that had fallen on the floor and quickly threw it over her head and onto her body. Levi made sure to look down at the floor the whole time, hoping not to make her feel more uncomfortable. He also didn't want her to notice, but there was a smile tugging at his lips.

She finished putting her shirt on and then threw a sweatshirt on over it. The leaves were now falling, and the weather was now getting chillier by the day. She hated coats or jackets, though, even in the dead of winter.

"Why did you come here? I told you I just needed to pick up clothes after class, so I had some more stuff at your apartment. We could have just met back there." [Y/N] said as she grabbed her overnight bag, which was overflowing with clean clothes.

"This was on the way anyway. Thought it would be easier just to meet you here." Levi looked down at her bag, cramped with clothes. "Just leave that here. I can grab it for you on the way back to my place."

[Y/N] nodded and dropped the bag back down on the floor next to her bed. "Are you sure it's okay if I keep an eye on you for a few more days?"

"Yeah." Levi replied. I'm sure it's okay. I'd miss the smell of your perfume. The way you greeted me in the morning. I'd miss your voice.. the way you'd say my name and sound so sweet when you needed help with homework. I'd miss the way you'd always ask me if I felt alright. I'd miss the way you'd always worry about me..

They both made their way out of the door, down the stairs to the main entrance, and left campus. The walk through town on the way to the hospital was fairly quiet between them. Just the sound of chatter and laughter from other people around them on the streets filled the air. [Y/N] thought she would say something.. anything to kill the silence between the two of them.

"Soo.. can you believe Zeke called me like 10 times today?" She said as her footsteps slowed. What the fuck.. why did I say that? Why would he care about that? Stupid [Y/N], stupid.

"You still haven't told him where you are staying, huh?" Levi said as he passed her a side-eye glance.

"N-No.. I haven't."

"Seems to me like he doesn't really care. Don't you think your boyfriend should want to know your wearabouts?"

"I.. guess. Things have been weird between us since he's come back. I wish I knew where he was that whole time, but.."
