Chapter 003 (Mike?)

Levi woke to the sound of Erwin waking up from his slumber. It was never loud, but Levi was a light sleeper.

"Levi?"

The brunette grunted, still tired from last night. He shot up, 'Last night!' He quickly glanced around the room looking for wherever he threw down his probably sandy shoes and clothes. Hell, he probably even reeked of the ocean breeze. Could Erwin tell?  "Erwin? What?"

Already dressed up in his uniform--white dress shirt, khakis and a gray tie this time--he sat on the bedside near Levi.

It was unlikely for Erwin to wake Levi up just because he was leaving for work. He usually would have left on his own, regardless of whether he knew Levi was awake or not. He had a very discerning look on his face. Eye lids drooped slightly downwards, he let out a barely noticeable pout.

Levi caught it, assuming he was too tired to go to work. Levi never knew how to encourage him or anyone, so he was at a loss.

"I'll see you later." The man voiced as he turned away.

"Yeah." Levi shifted a bit on the bed, curling back under the sheets. Erwin always had the air conditioner on too high for Levi's tastes. He frequently got colds because of it, but if the air conditioner weren't on, Erwin would overheat into a big sweaty chunk of meat that Levi would have been less excited about cuddling next to.

Then there was a dreaded click of the door as Erwin exited.

Instantly Levi grabbed the remote to turn the air-conditioner off, and let out a long sigh, placing his forearm on top of his forehead. 'Did last night really happen?' He asked himself. It all happened so quick that Levi didn't even remember the details about their short fuck session. But that's all it was. That's all he would ever let it be.

After a nap, Levi did his regular routine. He made himself breakfast, regularly consisting of cereal and a banana, then coffee or tea depending on his tastes that morning. Today it definitely was going to be coffee. He strained his brows as he drank it, the thing nearly burning his tongue. "Tch." 

He thought about whether or not he should tell Erwin. He had no right to be mad because they really weren't in a relationship. They were more like friends with benefits, or even just people who lived together and occasionally--more like rarely--fucked. He did seem bothered about something this morning, but Levi thought to ask about it later if he weren't having a bad day.

There was a slight murr and vibration of the washing machine that Levi had thrown his beach-covered clothes in, and he couldn't help but remember what had happened. That Eren kid wasn't a bad fuck at all, and unconsciously Levi smirked at the thought.

He tugged his boxers slightly downwards, as they seemed to ride up as he sat. He was wearing his comfy clothes, which really consisted of undies and one or Erwin's oversized t-shirts that he only ever used to work on cars. Today Levi was borrowing an obscenely yellow one that clashed with his dark green boxers.

Levi stared at his phone. The thing was often on silent, with hardly any notifications turned on. In the back of his mind he wondered if Eren had messaged him at all, but there was no need to act desperate. When he finished his coffee, Levi went on to sketching. There was a bunch of commissions and a few collabs that he would like to get done by next week, and thought it best to get started.

He blasted his music in the background using the app on his phone called iHeart radio. A band called Starset was playing a song he knew--'Fallen'.
