The Ereri Project!

Intimate (Blind)

"Hm," Levi hums, finishing the sixth chapter of Eren's first book, which Eren brought with him as a gift on his first official visit to Levi's apartment today.

"What?" Eren asks.

"Nothing," Levi replies. "This just really reminds me of a dream I had once."

"Really?" Eren asks. "Because they're based on a dream I had."

"Seriously?"

He nods. "Which I thought was a little weird," he says. "I mean, I lost my sight when I was still a kid so there were a lot of things I can only imagine because I never really saw them, so usually when I imagine people they don't have very distinct faces. But the strange thing about that dream was everyonehad a distinct face. And I saw myself but I wasn't me, you know. I was talking to that me and another man... who had the same name as you actually, and they told me all about their world."

"Hm."

Eren scooches over and so his hip is touching Levi's. "Can I feel your face?"

"What?"

"To see you better, I mean."

"I guess," Levi replies, closing the book and setting it on his coffee table. "But we've been dating for almost two weeks, I expected this before now."

Eren moves to straddle Levi's lap, resting his hands on Levi's cheeks. "It's just a little more intimate than some new people are comfortable with." Eren traces Levi's features slowly and gently, using as little force as possible.

"Especially because when we first met I expected you to be the type of guy who doesn't really like touching much."

Levi closes his eyes and when Eren's thumb brushes his lip, he says, "I can see how this would feel too inti-"

Suddenly Eren's lips are touching his so he snaps his eyes open. Eren is leaning back, looking unusually nervous. "Was that okay?"

Levi answers by pulling Eren down for a second kiss, this one more insistent than the first.

"So it was okay?" Eren asks when he pulls away.

Levi chuckles. "It was perfect."

"And you're definitely officially my boyfriend?"

Levi nods. "Yes."

"Good, cause I want to introduce you to my sister next weekend."
