The Wolf and The Bat

Succubi and Incubi

Returning to college after Thanksgiving break was nice. Levi didn't have to deal with his father's glares, though he would miss his mother, as usual. Eren was happy to be away from the house because his mother kept asking questions about Levi and it was beginning to creep him and his father out.

They sat next to each other in their Mythical Studies class and they just looked at each other.

"How was your break?" Eren asked. Levi rolled his eyes.

"My father nearly had a conniption because I told Mother that my parnter in my minor was a vampire." Eren frowned.

"Yeah, that was most of my family, until Marco flipped his shit." Levi cocked an eyebrow.

"Marco.. that's your bratty nephew right? The one in Farlan's Politics class?" Eren nodded. "And when you say flipped his shit?" Eren paled.

"He swore. He never swears." Levi rolled his eyes. "I mean it! He never even implies swears, and his eyes only ever turn red when he's drinking blood. They were blood red, he was yelling, even at his own parents, and it was horrifying. And he only said fuck! Only swore he said. And it shut the entire room up. Not even kidding. Of course then my dad stepped in and sassed the entire room so..."

"Entire room?" Eren nodded.

"Every stepmother, sibling, and their children down to I don't want to know how many generations." Levi cocked an eyebrow.

"Seriously? The entire fucking family? It's only my mother, father and I." Levi said. Eren sighed.

"It's better with the whole family because then Mom isn't just focused on me and I can easily push her onto Marco or something." Levi nodded.

"Looks like our mother's are the only ones fine with us being friends. Besides your dad and Marco obviously." Eren shook his head.

"No. You remember those three nieces I told you about? The ones determined to be my brides?" Levi nodded. "They're okay with it too." Eren purposely avoided talking about any of this being not because he was friends with a werwolf, but in love with a werewolf, Levi to be exact. Then Vix walked in.

"Hello class. Our next section in Succubi and Incubi. Now, raise your hand if you don't know what these are?" A few hands went up. And so Vix began explaining what they were.

"A succubi is demoness that steals men's vitality while they sleep. Incubi are men that steal women's vitality while they sleep." Afterwords the class went threw the 'what I know about blank' and Vix said that this'll be a short section like the mythical horse section and that she hoped everyone paid attention closely because along with the final project, which she gave a heads up was going to be an essay, there was going to be a closing test over all the sections.

"This is bullshit." Levi said as him and Eren walked out of the room. "We went from girly cute fantasies to sexual predators of the night. Vix has a few screws loose." Eren nodded a little.

"At least she's not making us learn aboout Big Foot." Levi pinched the bridge of his nose.

"She's probably going to next semester." Levi groaned. Eren sighed. He really would rather not. He was still enjoying the class, learning about real myths now, but it was still a little draining how predictable the sections were. Eren smiled a little.

"Hey Levi?" The werewolf turned towards him. "I'm going to be recording something after dinner. I was wondering if you'd be interested in helping me." Levi cocked an eyebrow.

"What the fuck could I help with?" Eren shrugged.

"Well, I'm trying to find something to do for the club, and Pixis doesn't want me to start with Christmas stuff until next Friday." Levi just watch Eren for a minute. He wouldn't mind helping the brat with that, so he agreed and after dinner the two met up in Eren's dorm in his bedroom.

"Why the hell are we in your bedroom?" Levi said, looking around the room. The room was indeed clean, even if it didn't meet his standards. Eren went over to his camera and recording equipment and started to set it up.

"Armin's studying in his room, and though the rooms are pretty sound proof, sometimes sound from the sitting area can be heard in the bedrooms, so I record in here." Levi nodded.

"And you record with a camera because?" Eren blushed a little.

"I may or may not post them on YouTube...." Levi cocked an eyebrow.

"You're shitting me right?" Eren turned and pouted.

"Hey! It's just another way for people to know who I am. And it's not like I only do covers you know." Levi nodded as he remembered Eren saying something about trying to write a love song during one of their conversations before break.

"So why the fuck am I here again?" Eren grabbed his bass guitar as he looked through a notebook.

"Well, I wanted to see what happened if I recorded in front of someone." Levi cocked an eyebrow.

"What do you mean?" Eren blushed a little.

"I've never recorded anything with another person in the room. I wanted to try it. That's why you're here." Eren was scanning one page and his eyes brightened. "Here we go." Eren positioned himself before looking to Levi.

"Oh shit! One second." Eren put the guitar down and ran to his closet, opening it and pulling out a red bean bag chair and, after making sure it was clean and the floor he was going to put it on was clean, put it down and Levi sat in it as Eren went pack into position. He held a remote and pointed to the camera. He smiled over at Levi before pushing the button and after waiting a few seconds, started playing something on his bass guitar.

Levi couldn't recognize the song, but he didn't stop to think too long on it as he watched Eren play. Eren was tapping his foot to keep the beat as he watched his fingers move along the neck of the bass guitar, every so often singing something that Levi wasn't really paying attention too. He was to focused on Eren. Outside of the club, Eren looked a lot more free and instead of thinking Eren was being seductive and slightly arousing, Levi couldn't help but think that Eren looked absolutely beautiful and natural.

When Eren finished, he waited a few seconds before picking up the remote and turning off the camera.

"What did you think?" Eren asked, looking like a child trying to impress their mother with a drawing they worked hard on. Levi blinked a few times.

"Not bad." Eren pouted and Levi couldn't help but think it was cute.

"Not bad? That means it could be better right?" Eren started to stress out. He thought he had played flawlessly, exactly how it was supposed to be. Levi seemed to pick up on this and sighed, rolling his eyes.

"'Not bad' is my way of saying 'it was good' Yeager. You really need to calm down and not take it so personal." Eren's pout changed to slightly annoyed.

"I'm pretty sure that if someone said that about your art, you'd break their arm." Levi was quiet before whispering a 'fucking touche' quietly under his breath.
