Chapter 7
I was cold in this bed usually. And you can't blame me because the blankets I had were on the floor and since I was chained up during the night, I couldn't get up and grab them. That is one reason why I fucking hate the agreement that I have to follow with how the whole court trial went and all.
This time when I woke up in the middle of the night, it wasn't because I was cold. It was because I was having a dream and it ended as I woke up for some reason. I looked to my right and saw the wall and bed side table I had. Then I looked to my left and saw...
Captain Levi?
I was extremely shocked to see him lying on the bed right next to me. I turned over to make myself comfortable. That got Levi's attention.
"S-sir why are you here?"
"Eren..."
His voice sounded like he had been crying and that he was scared. I wanted so badly to comfort him.
"Are you ok Sir?"
"Levi."
"Hm?"
"Call me Levi. When we are alone like this it's just Levi."
"When we are alone?!"
"Eren."
"So wait why are you here?"
"I...I had a nightmare."
I was slightly shocked at this. The strong and stoic captain Levi was crying over a dream he had had.
"What was it about?"
"It was about the first expedition I ever went on when they...when they..."
And then he broke down in tears again. He brought his hand up to his face and covered it with them. And in the quick few seconds this had happened, I had pulled him closer to my body in an order to comfort him. He cried into my chest and slowly his sobs subsided.
"Eren please stay by my side."
"Are you asking me out?"
"Eren just please promise me that you will survive for as long as you can. Live your life to the fullest and..."
I interrupted him by pulling his head towards mine and pushing our lips together. He seemed shocked at first but I felt him relax and then he started kissing me back. He wrapped his arms around my neck and I wrapped mine around his waist. Then when we both needed to breath, he pulled away.
"I really like you Eren," he said as his face went a deep shade of pink.
"I really like you too...Levi."
And we fell asleep together in my bed.
