(Y/N)

A soft sound was heard around the office as my glass and Levi's met. We were in his office, it was nearly midnight and most of the people had left. In fact I'm pretty sure the only ones still here were us and the night guards. Why are we still here? Until an hour ago Hange, Erwin and the others were still here celebrating the successful end of the collection and when they left me and Levi just kept talking. I guess we didn't notice how time went by.

"You did an excellent job arranging everything for the first time. I'm impressed. " Levi said taking the last sip of his wine.

"I didn't really do too much. I only did what you told me to, I'd be concerned if I couldn't do something as simple as that. " I finished my drink as well and placed it on top of the desk.

The moment I did Levi pulled me close to him by my waist. He was leaning on the desk and the moment my body touched his he lowered his head to kiss my neck. The warm wet feeling of his tongue against my skin made me close my eyes and lean my head slightly to give him more space. He slowly made his way up until he reached my ear and then kissed his way to my lips. His hand moved to lift the skirt of my dress while the other remained on my waist. He lifted my leg his hand immediately going under my thigh and I pulled back from the kiss needing air.

"Have you come to a conclusion yet? " he asked me looking into my eyes.

His hand returned on my waist.

"Conclusion? "

"Yes. " he nodded. "Do you want to continue this or end it? "

"Oh, " that. To be honest I had completely forgotten about it. "I think my answer is clear. " I kissed him. "Don't you think? "

"So I'll take that as a yes? "

"Sure." I wrapped my arms around his neck and he let out a sigh.

I could clearly see the different emotions in his eyes but the most clear one was... Fear. Why was he scared? Shouldn't he be relieved?

"In that case I have something I need to tell you..." he looked down not meeting my gaze.

I pulled back not feeling comfortable in his arms anymore and I crossed mine. There were a lot of thoughts running through my mind with two of them taking dominance. One, he has someone else in his life other than me, thought I doubt it seeing as everyone in the office including people that are very close to him have told me his been alone for a while. Or two, I'm going to lose my job, which is what I feared the most. Like if he told me that he can't be in a serious relationship with someone that works in the same place as him and that now he would provide for me and Miles. Is it something he could easily do? Absolutely. Is it something I would accept? Never.

"What is it? " I asked, my voice coming out a lot colder than I expected.

My tone caught Levi by surprise, it was clear by the way his eyes widened slightly and he stood properly to continue the conversation.

"Why are so tense suddenly? "

"What's the problem Levi? What do you want to tell me? " I really tried to soften my voice, I really did. But I couldn't change my tone.

"Okay, first I want you to calm down a little bit. There isn't a problem. At least not with you, I promise. I just haven't told you something... I was going to tell you earlier but I didn't see a reason for you to know if you decided to end things early. " he reached out touching my hands with his. 

Hearing him say that surprisingly calmed me down. I run my hands up and down his eventually lacing his fingers with mine. 

"Okay then, what is it? " finally my voice returned to the tone I wanted to have from the beginning.
