House Cat [Neko!Levi x Eren, Attack on Titan]

Chapter XXXIII

"You ready to do this?" Eren asked Levi as he finished putting in his uniform.

"Yes," Levi responded simply.

Eren went up to Levi and buttoned his top button. Once finished he kiss Levi's forehead.

"Promise me you'll be safe?"

"Of course."

Annie had agreed to help them and she called in a favor with the person in charge of the janitorial staff. He would take Eren, Levi and Jean into the building. Levi would change and go to the "target's" office. Erwin learned that Zackley followed a very specific schedule and always left his office at 7:10 for coffee came back exactly eight minutes later. So that would be Levi's window of opportunity.

They entered the building, Eren was honestly kind of disappointed that they didn't have cool hidden ear pieces but he knew now wasn't the time. They were checked by security and passed through into the building. Jean and the real janitor split off from the other two. Levi and Eren went to the janitorial closet, Eren stood outside the door while Levi went in and transformed. Eren went in five minutes later, looked down at the floor and smiled.

"You're so little," he grinned as he looked at his transformed boyfriend.

Levi glared up at him and flicked his tail. Eren giggled a little and picked Levi up and set him gently inside the tote bag that hung over his shoulder. He walked to the elevator and pressed the button for the floor that Zackley's office was located on. Eren didn't get off but he let Levi out.

"Good luck," he said. "I'll be back in about eight minutes."

Levi nodded and ran down the hall. He had memorized the floor plan but from such a small perspective everything seemed so much bigger. He eventually found the door in question and he sat close to the wall, near to the door. Not that Levi knew the time, but at precisely 7:10 a man who looked to be well into his sixties, left the office. Between the time that the man opened and closed the door, Levi had slipped in unnoticed.

The office was very nice, potted plants adorned all corners, the sun shone through the curtains, it was not the place that you would initially think someone with nefarious motives would reside. Levi hopped up onto the chair then jumped up to the desk. Every piece of paper of which there were many, was stalked and organized so neatly on the desk.

Levi searched for the papers and when he happened upon some with Petra's name, he carefully bit the corner and dragged the paper off of the desk. He then positioned himself at the door once again, this time he had to be careful not to make any noise while moving the documents and be as quick as possible.

The door opened once again and Levi was able to safely back step quickly out the door while dragging the papers. Once the door had fully closed, he ran through the hallway with the paper in his mouth, trying his best not to trip. Finally he reached the elevator, he looked to his right and then to his left. Not many people worked on that floor but Levi was nervous nonetheless. But then the elevator reached his floor and he rushed inside. Eren, with a relieved look on his face, took the papers as well as putting Levi back in the bag.

"That was amazing, thank you so much Levi," he said scratching Levi behind the ears.

Levi nuzzled his small face into Eren's hand which made Eren grin. When they reached the main floor once again they went back to the closet and Levi changed back. They then met up with Jean and the other man, in order to not look suspicious they did a days work, which made Levi very happy as he got to clean all day.

Once done they headed down to the lobby with the intent to leave, but someone grabbed Eren's arm. He turned around and it was Zackley! The older man looked angry and Eren could see fear in his eyes.

"Did you clean any of the offices on the eleventh floor," Zackley demanded.

"U-uh, no sir, we did not," Eren responded nervously.

He kept ahold of Eren's arm and stared at him.

"Sir, if you don't have any other business with us..." Jean started.

"Have I seen you before?" Zackley asked, gripping Eren's arm tighter.

Eren's eyes widened in fear, they brought Jean just in case Zackley would recognize Marco but they didn't think that he would know or remember Eren. He attempted to stutter an answer but Levi cut him off.

Levi grabbed Zackley's wrist and pried it off Eren's arm. "You're are not going to find what you are looking for here, now please leave," Levi said with a glare that scared even Eren.

Zackley reluctantly let go and glared back at Levi. "Tsk, to think we hire Nekos," he spat and walked away angrily.

Eren smiled gratefully at Levi. When they finally left they met up with everyone else at the shop. Everyone was happy and relieved that the plan had gone so well. Levi even let Petra hug him.

"Thank you so much I owe you everything!" She thanked him over and over again.

"You're welcome," he said as he tried not to be suffocated by the hug.

The group celebrated and many people came up and thanked Levi which made him a bit uncomfortable. Eren stayed by his side the entire time though. When they were finally able to go home they immediately laid down on the couch, exhausted from the events of the day.

"I kinda feel like watching a spy movie now," Eren joked.

Levi rolled his eyes and curled into Eren's chest. That adventure had taught him that he preferred staying at home where everything was consistent and safer. But he was glad to have been able to do something for Eren. Interrupting his train of thought, Eren shifted and brought Levi up, closer to his own face. He kissed Levi softly.

"What was that for?" Levi asked, a little annoyed by having been moved.

"It was a thank you," Eren said grinning.

"I told you, it's not necessary."

"Yes it is, I have to be able to show you I love you and you can't say that that you don't like it," Eren wrapped is arms around Levi.

"I don't like it," Levi said with a straight face.

"We both know that's not true."

"Are you calling me a liar?"

"Maybe," Eren said with a giggle.

He attempted to kiss Levi again but he tried to move away. Keeping a firm hold of the Neko he kissed him forcefully which caused Levi in turn to kiss back with even more force. Eren eventually won their little fight and ran his fingers through Levi's hair as they continued to kiss.

Eren broke the kiss briefly and stared lovingly at his Neko. "I love you," he said breathlessly.

Afterward Levi snuggled himself once again onto Eren's chest. Eren still had his arms around the Neko and used one hand to pet him. Levi purrs under Eren's touch and they both fall asleep that way.
