"What are you all doing awake?"

Levi's murderous monotone voice resonated within the dining hall (as it resembles those last chilling words you hear from the psychopathic serial killer behind you before you turn around and scream your lungs empty until you choke on your own bloody saliva) when he spotted a hand full of cadets all gathered up at one of the corner of the room as he was doing his nightly routine rounds of the castle.

Everyone visibly stiffen, with the exception of Ymir, and they stayed rooted to their spot as they dare not turn around to face the wrath of their Captain. Save one brave ( foolish ) soul who pivoted around in complete and utter fear for his vertically challenged superior with a hearty salute.

"S-Sir! We were, uhm, jus-just-"

In spite of his rapidly perspiring palms and moist forehead due to the intense glare Levi was giving him, Jean tries to swallow down the lump of growing anxiety in his throat and explain the situation at hand before the shorter man starts to flip out punishments upon the small group like patties on a grill, but obviously that didn't work as he trips over his words ungraciously.

"Shut up."

Just as said words left his vocal chords and into the perpetrators' ears, the momentary flash of a lightning bolt had temporarily blessed Levi with vision as it lit up the dim room, allowing him a clearer view of the perpetrators as well as Jean's pale and frightened expression, followed by the crackle of thunder as it blocks out the heavy drops of rain.

"Someone tell me properly what is going on here or everyone will suffer an extra 5 hours of training tomorrow. " Levi said in an exhausted voice for he was so done with Jean's attempts.

Everyone had then simultaneously moved aside with their heads hung low, counting out Ymir, in order to show their superior the reason why they had all been there in the first place.

"We-We've been trying to get her back to bed but she won't budge, and we don't know why. She's too shaken to even speak..." Christa explained softly as she kept her eyes strained with worry on the trembling, crouching body huddled up by the corner.

Stepping closer to the cause of all this commotion, his anger dissipated as he found that he recognized who the trembling mess of human mass was — his lover.

"Everyone back to bed, I'll handle her. " Levi orders the rest of the soldiers without even bothering to tear his silently sympathetic eyes away from your shaking form.

They didn't want to leave you alone with their tyrant of a trainer; although, that was because they didn't have a single clue as to the two of your being romantically involved with each other, but they had to obey him nonetheless seeing how he had authority over all of them.

So without a word of protest, they left to their sleeping quarters while Levi had stealthily inched closer to you as he evaluates your form that seemed to tremble endlessly.

To say it pained him slightly to see you in such a compromising position, was a lie. It had pained him greatly, not only because his significant other of 3 years had not call for his help (but instead, a bunch of unqualified brats), but also because he hadn't a single clue of this fear of yours. Until as of right now that your fear has come to light due to the small whimper his sharp ears picked up right after the previous flash of lightning.

"(Name)."

He called out for your response but no avail for your hadn't even moved a millimetre — if you minus out the trembling that is. Sighing in defeat, he sits himself down right next to you, but you still hadn't notice for the wind had started to scream and howl, similar to those who fell prey to the jaws of a merciless titan.

Running out of options, he opted to soothe you with his touch by placing an arm over your shoulder. His touch startled your entire being, bringing the trembling to a halt and instead, graced him with a jolt, but once you looked up into those breath-taking orbs, it was as if everything that was scaring your conscience to kingdom high had just dissolved into background noise.

"Why didn't you come to me?" He whispered softly. You almost let the words slip by your ears for you had been too over-whelmed with anxiety and fear because another roar of thunder came to.

"I didn't want to bother you, I'm sorry. I wanted to-to go back, but it got worse..." You replied with a coarse whisper that ended off in a weak trail.

You leaned onto his muscular shoulder as his unoccupied hand came to caress your tear-stained cheek in the most gentle manner he could as a way to soothe your nerves. A trick that never failed and it proved its success rate seeing as you had calmed down significantly.

"Bullshit. You can come and mess up my office for all I care. If you ever need me, don't you dare hesitate. " he scolded you with a hard glare and a motherly tone and you couldn't help but smile gratefully at him as your silent appreciation.

"Thank you, Levi. "

Reaching up, you ventured on a short lived kiss of appreciation and deep fondness with Levi as he wholeheartedly reciprocates it.

"Now, let's get your ass to bed. "

With one swift motion, Levi had your body in his hold— much like a Prince would carry his Princess.

Giggling heartily as your previous fear of the storm now completely fading into the back of your mind, you looped your arms around your lover with a content sigh as he continues on to his bedroom where he would proceed to hold you in his arms until morning comes around.
