I groaned as I came to, the feeling of a soft and plush bed greeted me and I was reminded of Levi and I's bed back home. Although the familiar lemon scent didn't surround me comfortably so I knew that we were still outside the walls. I heard the sound of a door opening and closing as a cool hand grasped at mine, another coming to rest on my forehead lightly. The voice of my lover gave a sigh and I felt the bed shift with his weight before his forehead rested against mine, our noses touching slightly. I wanted to open my eyes or call out to him but my eyes seemed too heavy to lift at the moment and my throat dry and parched. Instead I lifted my hand and carefully placed it cupping his cheek. He gasped his hand reaching up lay across mine as he pulled his head back to probably study my face. A small smile adorned my (L/T) lips as I was finally was able to flutter my eyes open gently. Levi's face who was settled in a worried expression changed to relieved one that held his rare but beautiful smile that caused my own to widen. "(F-F/N), thank fucking god you're okay. And finally fucking awake." I gave a small laugh that turned into a cough and I hurried to cover my mouth as it continued. I only now noticed that Levi was strattled on top of me as he moved off to stand beside the bed.

I moved to sit up as he grabbed for the water canteen that sat on a bedside table. He brought it to my lips and I grabbed it with my own hands to tilt the water into my mouth. The cool liquid soothed my dry throat and I sighed after gulping down a good amount of it. "Thanks Levi." I said happily. "What happened, and how long have I been out?" I asked. My memory was a little hazy of the events since we entered the walls.

"You being a reckless brat cut yourself with your blades, you've been out for three days now. The sun just rose." I gasped slightly as the memories became clearer in my mind.

"Levi! What about your injuries, did you get hurt?" There was concern and worry twisted into my voice and Levi seemed to shush me by placing his lips on mine. Want was present as he gave me a longing kiss. His lips danced with mine in sync and I wrapped my arms around his neck to pull him closer. Lust grew within me but I knew that now was not the time. Levi knew this too because as he pulled away he again put his forehead against mine.

"I'm fine, it's your injury that we need to talk about and now." His tone was gentle but serious which caused confusion to cross my features. He released himself from my grip and pulled a wooden chair over to my bedside and sat down, crossing his legs like always he immediately had a serious aura to him. "When I first caught you, your wound was a clean slice with a single blade that was deep enough to need stitches but not deep enough that you cut anything essential like an organ."

"Levi, why are you being so serious. This isn't the first time I've gotten hurt, although now that I think about it I've never cut myself or anything like that before." I giggled lightly trying to lighten the mood but Levi only looked down at his hands that were laying in his lap.

"(F/N), I think you're a titan shifter." His gaze met mine and I can tell he's serious but I don't want to believe him.

"Wh-what are you talking about, you have to be joking. I mean if I was a titan shifter wouldn't my wound be healed?" I pulled the blankets back to see that I was indeed only in a nightgown that I had brought with me. I lifted it up and was surprised to see my stomach and torso all healed, looking as if an injury had never even touched my (S/T) skin. "B-b-but. Why didn't I know earlier... I-I"

"Hey, (N/N) its fine. You're okay, I'm okay, everything is going to be okay." I didn't even notice as tears began to fall down my cheeks leaving behind cool wet trails for more tears to follow. Levi quickly embraced me tightly, holding my small form to his. I loved his touch, and the warmness that seemed to emit off of him was soothing. Though in an away I felt that I didn't deserve his touch anymore. He is humanity's strongest, a titan killing machine, and I'm his wife that is part titan, the very thing that humanity hates and the very thing the Levi has devoted his life to killing. I moved to be sitting on my knees and attempted to pull away him but he only held me tighter. He moved onto the bed pulling me into his lap as he embraced me even tighter than before, tightly but gently he held me. I eventually gave up trying to get away and instead snuggled into his embrace, I buried my head into the crook of his neck and sobbed out as my hands gripped onto the fabric of his white shirt. "(F/N) I don't know how you feel about it but I know how I feel about it. I don't see this as anything bad, I see this as another part of you to love. I love you so much that no matter what happens to you or me or us I will always love you regardless. I love you so much and that will never change so if that's what worrying you, don't. I don't care what anyone else thinks because you're still the same person that I know and love with all of my heart, okay? We will figure this out but first we have to finish this job and get home, we can relax and figure this out then."
