You and I LevixEren

The tension is real

Levi draped the cape snugly over his shoulders, before briskly turning on a heal, and sauntering out the door. The morning was gleaming with hope, and practically oozing with opportunity for him to be able to see his brat, alone, for the first time in weeks. Needless to say the corporal was in one of his lighter moods, though his exterior did not show it. His tough façade, however, did not faze a unknowing Eren as he almost dropped the dishes he had been caring from the kitchen, to the floor. He simply looked up at his commanding officer from behind the locks of messy dark hair, and smiled earnestly from his spot on the floor, dishes in tact and accounted for.

"Back to work Yeager." Levi's voice showed no emotion, but still the younger beamed.

"Yes sir." Collecting himself, Eren rose from his place on the wood floor, heading off for the days duties.

Yes, that brat would be the death of Levi if kept pulling stunts like that. There was no doubt in either of their minds concerning that matter. There had been nothing but an increasingly hard to conceal amount of tension between the two for far to long. Both of them just needed something to happen so they could think about something besides each other for at least a moment. Of course, there wasn't much time, or there were to many distractions around. It seemed that the only time they could share together was by crossing paths in the corridors between scions when countless solders trampled through the halls. Or at dinner, Levi hardly able to glance at the younger one as he occasionally brushed his leg over the others, blushing profoundly.

The corporal sucked in a long breath and continued his walk toward the kitchen. Most of the troops would already be at training, and the reaming half would be sleeping off the horrors they had witnessed outside of the walls. This meant he could possibly have time to eat his breakfast in the company of his own mind, a rare occasion.

His boots echoed in the empty corridor, against the boards, reminding him he was indeed alone for a moment. He let his mind wander, never to far from his reach. All the same, it seemed to stray. A peculiar notion to one of human kinds truly strongest.

Reaching the end of the corridor, Levi pushed open the dark wooded door and stepped into an empty dining hall. His breakfast had been sat in his place at the head of the large table with a few volumes of regulations and training techniques he had asked to be delivered to him previously. Smelling the musty air of the dark room, he quickly perused a widow to be opened at once. He would have to have someone thourly dust this room later today.

Fresh air hit him, and he took only a moment to breath it in before seating himself in the hard faded brown chair. Rather than start to eat he decided to flip through the books first. He ran his fingers over the worn spines and wondered who had set them here, knowing he would be here at this time. As well as wondering who had made the food and brought it to the private dinning area for his squad and commanders only. As he picked up the first thick volume a scrap of parchment fluttered out.

Curiously Levi extended his fingers to reach the small note. Written in beautifully crafted penmanship was the phrase,

Your room, after breakfast

- Your brat

Suddenly things became very clear to Levi.
