Third Person POV
It has been a couple days since the unfortunate expedition.
Levi hasn't left his room yet. He only leaves to grab some food before heading back to his room to eat. In the comforts of his room, he laments over the death of his two friends.
Four words keep playing through in his mind like a broken record.
It's all my fault.
He torments himself as the same four words constantly invade his thoughts and dreams.
Nightmares plague his mind every time he closes his eyes. Not a single night has gone by where Levi has been able to sleep in peace.
(Y/n) worries every second of the day, but gives him space. Mike, who had formed a brotherly relationship with Levi, worries as well. Every time the couple passes by Levi's room, they hear nothing.
One night, Levi emerges from his room and wanders the halls. It's several hours past curfew and all the cadets and their superiors are asleep.
Or so he thought.
While pacing the halls, Levi noticed a faint glow of light escaping thought the crevice between the bottom of the door and the ground coming from (Y/n)'s office.
The clicking of the heels on Levi's boots ring throughout the hallway as he makes his way to her office. When he finds himself in front of the door, he hesitates before knocking.
Knock knock
"Name and business."
Her voice was stern, but soft.
'She sounds tired,' Levi thought before responding quietly.
"It's Levi ... May I speak with you?"
"Yea, of course. Come in."
He opened the door to see his sister sitting at her large, mahogany desk. Large stacks of papers covered the surface of most of the desk.
'How much work does she have?'
The door closes behind Levi as he inches his way closer to (Y/n). (Y/n) looks up from her paperwork and sets her quill down. She gives Levi her undivided attention.
She takes note of the dark circles under his eyes, and Levi does the same about her. (Y/n) slowly gets up and walks up to Levi. Her arms wrap around him and pull him close, his head resting on her shoulder.
She quietly whispers to him,"How are you feeling?"
The only response (Y/n) gets is a slight whimper as Levi buries his face deeper into her shoulder. Without saying another word, she squeezes him tighter and strokes his silky, black hair with one hand.
They stay like this for a while. The silence is comforting, along with the presence of each other. Eventually, they break away.
"Would you like to stay with me tonight?"
Levi quickly nods in response before (Y/n) nods back. She heads off into the bathroom to change while Levi climbs under the sheets.
After changing into a pair of (color) loose-fitting sweats and a (color) tank top, (Y/n) emerges from the bathroom and curls up under the sheets next to Levi.
Arms snake around each other. (Y/n) rests her head into Levi's hair and Levi nuzzles his face into the crook of (Y/n)'s neck.
Tears start to escape Levi's eyes. His sharp breathes alert (Y/n). She rubs soothing circles on his back and quietly sings to him.
Die Stühle liegen sehr eng
Wir reden die ganze Nacht lang
Dieser niedrige Raum ist nicht schlecht
Wir können uns gut verstehen
So ist es immer, unser Licht ist nur das
Trinken und singen wir, begrüßen morgen
So ist es immer, unterm riesigen Himmel
Leben wir zusammen, die Nacht ist lang
Da die Sterne nicht leuchten
Kann der Mond auf diese Stadt nicht scheinen
Schauten wir das Licht selbst an
Singen wir unter dem Sternenmeer
Chairs so close and room so small
You and I talk all night long
Meager this space but serves us so well
We comrades have stories to tell
And it's always, like that in our evening time
We drink and sing when our fighting is done
And it's always, so we live under the burnt clouds
Ease our burden, long is the night
Just as no stars can be seen
We all starve for a moonbeam on our town
We must all gather as one
Sing with hope and the fear will be gone
Hearing the soft, angelic voice of his sister, in contrast to her usual cold, emotionless voice, lulled Levi to sleep. After hearing Levi's breaths even out into a slow pace, (Y/n) kissed his forehead and closes her eyes.
The two peacefully slept that night; Their dreams devoid from the usual terrors that haunted them every night.
