UnderWater

Chapter 4

Around midnight, My head started to throb again. But this time it was heavier and dizzier.

My co-worker convinced me to take a short break at the back while he covers me. Luckily, the headche lasted shortly.

This happens a few times for about a month or so.

Mikasa had move out to Sina after a hard convincingness that I was okay, in truth I wasn't. I tried to go to the doctor to check if something was up ,But they brushed me off saying that I was just exhausted.

Armin, who accompanied me there, told  me to take a short leave from my night job.

In two weeks, the headache started to calm down. I was staying with Armin the whole time.

First reason , was the condition Mikasa set me up before she left. She was dead worried ,But we convinced her that Armin could look after me.

Second one, was so I could see the ocean to calm myself when the headache started again.

And I was still at Armin's, after the headaches were gone. I started going to my night job again the next day.

But after the headache stops, I constantly been having this particular dream.

Its not scary or shits like that. I don't hate it. I just couldn't hate that weird dream.

That dream was so mysterious but calming.

I dream about looking at the ocean at night.

It was beautiful and captivating, the moon especially.

It feels like I don't want to stop looking at it, as if I'm drawn to it.

At first the dream was a bit of a blur and short. But it keeps getting more vivid and longer each day.

The feeling of the night breeze, the sand and the water splashes. I could feel the little details in the dream.

It feels too real..

Then at some point, I noticed a man.

This man got a raven short hair. But I still couldn't see his face clearly. Half of his body was in the waters. I assumed that he was 'standing' in the ocean. But the odd thing is, the waters that he was 'standing' in were a bit deep.

Well, It's just a dream..

It was Thursday night. I was at, Legion Bar, my workplace. That man had come again for the third time this week.

He had become a regular for the past month. He got a pale skin and a raven undercut hair. He always dressed neatly with a suit.

He was a bit below average in height ,But he got a well-maintain fit body.

"Welcome back ,Levi-san." I greeted,

He had given me his business card a while back, for introductions.

"I'll like a martini tonight, Eren." He ordered,

"Of course, the usuall I assume?" I asked, While keeping my professional act.

"Yes.." He confirmed,

As I made his drink, I could feel his gaze at me. I could feel my ears a bit heat up. I admit, he is hot.

I placed the drink infront of him and gave him my best professional smile.

"Enjoy.." I said as I smiled,

He only responded with a little hum.

That night, the bar was empty. Well there were a few people here and there. But the bar side was empty. So I wasn't as busy as the other days.

"So Brat.." he called ,as I was polishing the glasses,

I pouted a bit when he called me that.

"I'm going 23 you know, so I'm not a brat.." I said,

He lets out a smirk at my respond and continued,

"Well you're still a brat to me.."

I pouted more at his response. But, My God.. that smirk was sexy.

Then he continued,

"Anyways.. When will you give me your phone number?" He said as he took a sip of his martini ,still looking at me..

I bet my whole ears were red when I heard that.

It may not be the first time I got hit on while working, but I got a little crush with this guy, okay?

Then I tried to regain my compossure,

"If I give you my number, what will you do to it, Mr Levi, Sir?" I asked with my 'working' smile.

"Well, I'll ask you on a date.." he said with that charming smile of his.

"Hmm.. And what if I don't give you my number?" I said with a teasing smile,

"Oh ,come on. Don't play 'hard to get' with me now, brat." he said with a smirk,

"Well, Mr Levi, your chances had gone to zero when you called me a brat just now." I said still with a teasing smile,

After placing the money at the counter , he stood up and said,

"Well then, Eren, I'll be waiting outside till your shift is over, and fyi I don't take no for an answer.." He said and winks at me while walking to the door.

I could feel my face as red as a tomato right at that moment.

I didn't even realized he had finished his drink.
