AN: Ok, so many things! I'm going to be getting a lot of ideas from OTP Prompts on Tumblr (like this one) because I want different types of one shots, but I didn't want all of them to end up with them having sex or something because I don't want this to be consistent and make people lose interest.
Also, I'll be doing the Disney Princess AUs on here too. Lastly, I wasn't planning on updating, but it's April Fools Day and it seemed appropriate!

Eren sat there, pondering on whether or not he should pick up his phone and send a text. He inspected the gadget, as if it were a complicated bomb that he needed to dissemble before it blew up. It might as well have been. One little stupid text could blow up a great relationship. Eren didn't want that. He wanted his and Levi's relationship to deepen- and not in the "friends to best friends" sort of way.

Eren liked Levi. A lot. Hell, maybe even loved the guy. And he wanted to confess. But was he ready? He rotated the smartphone in his hand, still starring at it. Taking a deep breath in then releasing it, Eren put in his code of 1 2 3 4. He clicked the messages icon and scrolled until he saw the name Levi with the heart-eyes emoji following it. He took another breath and tapped his finger on the messages between the two.

This may have been stressful, but it was simple. He just has to be cool about it. But then again, some greater force would have to bestow great luck on Eren for him to be cool when it comes to love. Just be cool and casual then confess. Simple. Eren began typing, backspaced everything, took a breath, and typed again. You can do this, Eren.

EJ: hey

FUCK, I sent it! Oh my god, Eren thought. He waited, his patience only lasting for ten seconds. He wondered if he should've sent it until his phone buzzed, which was followed by a silent fangirl from Eren.

LA: Hey

EJ: wyd?

LA: Taking a shit. Wbu?

EJ: haha always with the shit jokes. I'm just on my laptop

LA: Who said it was a joke?

EJ: um...

LA: Jk brat

EJ: lol ok. So uh can I tell you something?

It took a few extra seconds for Levi to reply.

LA: That depends on what it is.

EJ: oh ok. um well promise you won't tell anyone if this goes south

The wait was even longer.

LA: Sure whatever.

Eren took a deep breath, his heart racing faster and faster with each letter he typed.

EJ: I'm just gonna say it. I really like you. And I was kinda hoping that you feel the same way.

Pressing the send button was the hard part, but he did it. He internally screamed, waiting for Levi's reply. He saw the three gray dots, indicating that Levi was typing. Oh fuck, what if he's rejecting me. Goddammit!

Eren suddenly remembered that it was April 1st, April Fools Day. He could probably save himself by saying that it's a joke before Levi could respond. He did it, sending the text the exact time he received his from Levi.

LA: Took you long enough, brat. I like you too

EJ: April fools!

SHIT! That was the only word that could process through Eren's head. What did he just do? He was happy, no doubt, that Levi felt the same way, but he literally just said April fools to him as if it were some kind of a joke. And man, he could only imagine what Levi must be thinking, especially because he hadn't received a text back. He had to make things right.

EJ: ok wow. That was a bad idea

LA: YOU FUCKING BRAT

Eren may have made things worse.

EJ: no no. Bad as in I shouldn't have said April fools. I really do like you but I chickened out and said that. I swear!

It took a while for Levi to reply.

LA: Well this is awkward because that's my joke too. April fools

Eren's heart dropped.

EJ: WAIT WHAT?

LA: Jk. Now we're even.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

EJ: that's not fucking funny

LA: It's a little funny

Even though Eren was mad, he was still smiling.

EJ: but just to confirm, you do like me?

LA: Yes, idiot

EJ: ok good.

LA: And you like me, right?

EJ: yes of course

LA: Good

EJ: wait so what are we now?

LA: Do I have to connect the dots for you? We're dating now. Unless you don't want to

EJ: no I do! I want to be boyfriends

A small hue of pink lied on Eren's cheeks. He was feeling all types of emotions, but mostly happiness.

LA: Good. You shitty brat

EJ: so what now?

LA: I'll be over in 20.

AN: I know this was short but that's because it was sorta last minute. Hoped you enjoyed it thoooo!!! Some nice, cute, and funny fluffy stuff for your souls. I feel like there should be a part 2 but idk. I'll do it if you want it.

Also, as I said, feel free to make requests if you want to see a certain thing!!
