Toothpaste

It's only begrudgingly that Eren and Levi finally get out of bed this morning. Honestly, if they didn't have brunch plans with Petra to plan her baby shower they might have stayed in bed until well into the afternoon.

When they get into the bathroom, Eren is still half asleep. Levi starts brushing his teeth while Eren is clumsily putting toothpaste on his own brush.

Levi notices, though, that despite how tired Eren looks, he's still watching with rapt attention while Levi is brushing his teeth.

He has always done that, every single time they've gotten ready in the morning together Eren always, always stares when Levi brushes his teeth.

Levi decides today's the day to ask about it. "The hell're you looking at brat?"

Eren tilts his head at Levi, still giving him a funny look. "You're just so clean all the time," Eren says. "I didn't expect you to be so messy about brushing your teeth."

"Toothpaste is clean."

"Not when it's all over your face," Eren says, grinning and fighting back laughter as he brushes his own teeth.

Levi rolls his eyes and turns back toward the mirror, continuing to brush.

Toothpaste foam is covering his lips and smeared all over his chin and around his mouth, he admits it does look a little silly.

He puts down his toothbrush and wipes a handful of water over his mouth and chin to wipe away the foam before continuing to brush his teeth.

Eren's reflection looks vaguely disappointed. "What?" Levi asks.

"It was cute, you didn't have to wipe it off," he mutters.

Levi frowns at him. "Why the hell did you bother mentioning it then?"

Eren puts his hands up defensively. "You asked."

Levi just shakes his head and spits in the sink before rinsing out his mouth and putting back his toothbrush.

When Eren finishes Levi leans over and pinches the brunette's cheek harshly before pulling him down for their first kiss this morning that doesn't taste like morning breath.

"What was that for?" Eren ask, rubbing the now red spot on his cheek.

"For calling me cute."

Eren can't decide if that is good or bad.
