One dance (AU)

Soldier!Levi x Reader 

In the midst of a crowd of people; you, is the only one he searched for.. His heart pounding when he sees you on the dance floor, unaccompanied and waiting for someone to take you away. Your hair was tied up as a bun with some curl left off the bottom of it, your slender back complimented your (f/c) cocktail dress as it motion gently with the music rhythm with the DJ put on a song.

(Baby I like your style...)

You noticed the short man presence behind the crowd, you tempt him with swaying your hips and walked down the nearest stairs gracefully.. His gaze follows you to your destination; the balcony. Your figure lean forward toward the stand as you wait for him to come to you, your (e/c) eyes met with his steely grey ones that almost spark within the moonlight. He was a perfect example of a gentleman with dignified suit and smooth complexion, his undercut matched beautifully with his structured face... As the music continues, he gestures his hand to waltz with you. You calmly takes it as he leads you to the center of the balcony.

He put his left hand onto your waist while his other entangled with yours. Your other hand rests on his shoulder as you softly touch his neck gently stroking it. For him, your touch intoxicated his action.. You two waltz to the rhythm of the slow music that match the balcony moonlight scenery, your (e/c) orbs stare onto his grey ones as he leads you on the dance.

"You look charming my king..." you said with the gentle voice of yours while your lips gives him an alluring smile at his oh-not-so stoic expression...

"You look addictive my queen..." he respond your conversation with his signature smirk that always melts your heart..

Your cheeks turn red by his compliment, he was teasing you and you know it by the tone of his voice reflects his behavior.. This unseen sight of him makes your heart flutter, you know he already won your heart and yet you always denied it. He released your waist for your to twirl around before he pulls you back, you ended with your back against his chest.. This warmth of his calms your thoughts down about his upcoming expedition, yes he's a soldier which that's the only reason you can't hold back your tears and worries he might never come back one day.

"Be careful when I'm gone okay? I need you to promise me (y/n)..." he said it with a slight hint of pain.

"I will... You be careful too, don't you dare dying on me Levi." you answered back while you hold your tears before they trailed down your face.

He turn you around to face him, but you kept your gaze on the floor because you know he usually do this heartbreaking moments one day before he goes to serve his country.

"Why won't you look at me (y/n)..." he asked, 'because it's difficult and hurt to see you like this' is what you wanted to say but you just keep quiet.

He put his finger on your chin and gently bring it up, your eyes on his face. His gentle expression were visible when he's alone with you. You look at those pair of grey eyes which full of uncertain thoughts on whether he'll make it back alive this time, his friend Erwin almost got killed but only lose his left arm right below his shoulder. He was lucky for being able to return to his beloved wife, Hanji (I ship them..). After that incident, Levi got promoted and frequently went on expeditions that last for two weeks at least one week after he returned home.

"I'm scared Levi..." you put your hand on his chest pressing against it to feel his beating heart..

"I'm scared that you might not being able to return home this time..." as you said those words, tears started to fall down your cheeks dampening the (f/c) dress. Levi kissed your cheek and hugs you by the waist, reserving the little heat left by you for him only.

"I'm scared too (y/n), beacuse I can't make promises that I will return this time and if I did and didn't return, it might leave a big scar on your heart... I'm not scared of death (y/n) cause that's what being a soldier is, I'm just scared of what comes next after my death... Are you gonna be okay? Who will take care of you? Will you eat? Why won't you sleep? Please stop crying for my sake." Levi holds your face and gently swipe away the tears with his fingers, "Because of my uncertainty, will you give me this one dance (y/n)?" Levi looked into your alluring (e/c) orbs and smile generously..

"I will Levi and I will not regret your decision because I know that you will not forgive me. Let alone to leave me..." you held his face and stroke his raven undercut hair. Levi's hands left your face and get back to his dance stance..

"Will you (y/n) (l/n) honor me with this dance..?" he asked you again with his genuine smile.

"Yes.." you dance hand in hand slowly moving to the beat of the music, 'I will give him the honor to dance with me even if it's the last time we see each other' you thought with your open heart as you prepare yourself to accept the gruesome fate that you abhor everytime you see him depart to his duty...
