Who Said Swimming Wasnt Sexy?

Ch:11

"So you and Armin... You do realize that kid is totally gay for you right?" Levi asked Eren while sitting on the couch. Eren shook his head.

"Nah. He is questioning his sexuality but he's not gay for me. Probably for one of the guys on the team or something, but not me."

"I see the way he looks at you." Levi replied, looking down. Eren sighed.

"You do know I don't like him right?" Eren said seriously.

"I love him as a best friend and a best friend only." Eren insisted. He was serious, he honestly had never felt anything for his blonde friend. Levi clicked his tongue.

"I'll believe you, but only because I love you." Levi said, before standing up to whisper in Eren's ear.

"You belong to me." He said in a low tone before biting Eren's ear lightly and purring. Eren's face flushed, and Levi walked back to his spot on the large bed to sit back and read. Eren opted to plug in his headset and do some more Internet stuff, he could never get enough music. He loved music, all types of music. So he did that in silence while Levi read his book. Armin had already left, he said he had some things to do to prepare right after breakfast. Eren got the feeling he didn't like Levi and Levi didn't like him, which was sad in a way.

Eren wanted to confront Levi about his apparent hatred for Armin, but he decided not to press his luck today. It was only 11:30 AM and they had been silent most of the day. The silence was a little unsettling, Eren could feel the tension hanging in the air as he pulled off his earphones.

He slowly rose up off the bed when Levi interrupted.

"Where are you going?"

"I need to piss, you made me drink like 5 glasses of water."

"Oh."

So Eren went to pee, and Levi continued to read. In all reality, Levi wasn't reading. He was nervous about the swim meet. Eren had substantially sent his pre-meet ritual and mentality askew, and even as he tried, he couldn't bring himself back to his intense meet mental state.

Much to his annoyance, he really enjoyed having Eren being around 100% of the time. Living completely alone and not socializing had actually taken a toll on Levi, whether he would admit it or not. He really enjoyed the company of another person, even if it was just complete silence.

Eren got back on the bed and resumed his Internet searching. Levi let out a sigh of relief. He didn't want Eren to ever go away.

"Hey, Levi?" Eren asked a little too loudly. Levi leaned over and pulled off his headset.

"You're being loud brat." Levi said, shaking his head at the boy.

"Sorry. I wanted to ask if you were nervous for the meet." Eren stated sheepishly. Levi breathed loudly.

"Maybe a little bit." Levi said, before closing his book.

"You've sent my routine down the toilet, you know that right?" Levi asked Eren. Eren grimaced and looked down.

"I am so sorry. I really didn't mean to screw you up, I really didn't." He said, still looking down. Levi took his hand and reached it out to it grabbed Eren's jaw.

"Look at me." He commanded, and Eren did just so.

"I really hope this new ritual works out, because if so, we'll be having a lot of fun for weekends to come." He finished as he pulled Eren into a sweet and soft kiss. There was no tongue, no biting, no voracious sucking or moaning either. Just a very sweet, gentle, genuine smiled, his face reddening. Eren loved the way Levi tasted, he always had fresh breath.
