My eyes fluttered to the boy beside me, positioned upon the rocks on the beach as I was too. He didn't have a particular expression upon his face, though I could see purr bliss and ecstacy within his breathtakingly bluey-grey orbs. His cheeks were stained red due to the coldness of the air; his heavy breathing formed clouds in the air after every time he let out a shaky breath. A smile flickered upon my chapped lips when I observed how concentrated my soulmate was when he was glancing at the beautiful view, though it was nothing compared to him -- he was amazing both inside and out.

"Levi," I started, watching as he ripped his gaze away from the sea and settled his eyes upon me. "Isn't this nice? Watching the sea, I mean, even if it is in fact winter." I spoke.

"It is indeed. You're such a soppy brat you know that?" Levi spoke, allowing what could be interpreted as a smile to twitch at his lips.

The waves crashed against the soft layer of sand that was a feet away from us, I sighed and intertwined my fingers with Levi's and felt fuzzily warm inside. He was the moon to my sun; the cherry to my cupcake. He was everything I had been waiting for and everything I felt that I didn't deserve, but I was too selfish to let him go. I deeply enjoyed his company -- I loved the warmth he radiated throughout my body, I loved how he made my heart flutter inside my chest and the way he was constantly on my mind.

I loved the days when he would hurriedly rush to my apartment, with redness kissing his cheeks, and his scarf wrapped around his neck -- he had insisted I let him in and we spent a few hours cuddling upon the sofa whilst the TV softly played in the background. Those were the days I gave him my pastel beanie to flatten down his hair and I stole his gloves to provide my hands with much-needed warmth.

I still remembered the day that he confessed to me, I got a surprising knock at my door on a summers day. August 3rd; that was the day he confessed and the day I said yes. He appeared at my door, hands in his black jeans as he nervously looked up to the light outside of my apartment; once I answered, his cheeks flushed with colour and his words didn't form properly. The sun glared down upon his pale skin as he managed to speak -- though I wasn't prepared for what was to come: "I like you." Was it really happening? That's what I continuously thought, but I didn't let my mind steer my decision instead I let my heart do so. That's what made me so happy today.

Levi was extremely successful with his job; he was pre-eminent with his work, so much so that he often had the opportunity to travel the world. One problem: I wasn't allowed to go with him. It was an autumns day, the red and orange leaves were positioned outside my door and there was a letter posted through my letter box. It was a petite letter, merely a piece of paper inside a small envelope. Though it was sweet and my emotions spilled from my eyes when I read it.

Eren,
You're everything to me and I cannot describe how much so. When I look at you I see romantic poetry and I so desperately wish to say it, but the words cannot seem to form so I write them down instead. I may never let you glimpse at the words that dance across the paper, but I will tell you how much you mean to me. I have to go on a trip to Japan, but when I get back I will write my poetry and steal your beanie when I visit your house; I will kiss your cheeks and lips no matter how bitten they are.
Love Levi.

"I'm glad you're back, Levi." I spoke, glancing at Levi when he softly smiled and turned to face me.

"I missed you."

His lips grazed against my own in such a desirable manor; I partially tasted the chocolate bar he had eaten an hour or so beforehand. He didn't rush the kiss -- nor did I -- instead we embraced the moment and let it flow freely, with no chains to control how things went. I let my heart decide what to do, not my mind.

Love is not just an emotion, it's a choice and I chose to be with him.

Snowflakes fled the clouds above us, and cried as they melted upon our slightly hot skin. A snowflake fell upon my cheek, and Levi kissed it away with his luscious lips that were not either rough nor smooth. Oh how I loved the feeling of his lips; of him.

I didn't used to believe in love; I just thought it was made up for TV shows and books, however I soon came to realisation that love was indeed deathly beautiful. Some aspects were ugly, but even a pile of ash can be beautiful if you look at what it used to be -- if you look at what's hidden inside. Sometimes diamonds are disguised beneath things that are considered average, but if you strip the outside you'll soon discover how beautiful normality can be.

He was beautiful.

He was a dream come true.

He was all I ever wanted, all I ever yearned for.

He made my heart throb inside my chest, and my cheeks flush with colour.

He became my life source; he became the only thing that could keep me whole again.

He might break me someday, but I'll just enjoy what's happening now.

Gosh, he was so incredible.

"I love you, Levi." I confessed, listening to the waves crash against the surface and slowly erode the ground that wasn't too far from us.

"I love you too, Eren." Levi planted a soft kiss upon my lips and a snowflake fell upon each of our noses; I realised love wasn't a fantasy -- in fact, it is so majestically beautiful to be caught in the web.
