The stars in the sky gently shown down on you, illuminating your soft features. You stood in front of the open window of your room and closed your eyes as the wind gently blew a cool breeze through your silky hair.



Feeling the curiosity to venture outside, you walked out of your room and gently closed your door behind you before walking out. It was a beautiful night out, only the soft sounds of crickets chirping could be heard and the rustling of the wind in the trees. You slowly breathed in the scent of the cool air as a small gust of wind blew through your locks of hair, making them float in the wind. At this moment you could truly feel contentment.



Little did you know,someone was watching from the distance. A certain raven haired man who enjoyed the sight of you so happy. He watched as the corners of your mouth curved upwards into a brilliant smile, causing his heart beat faster, and cheeks reddened slightly.



“Tch…”he let out, not knowing these feelings that were rushing into his system as he looked at you, yet at the same time, not minding them. He slowly crept up behind you, wanting to say something to you. Perhaps it was to tell you how he felt about you, but in the end he held it back.



“Squad Leader _____. What are you doing up past curfew?” he growled lightly. In truth, he mostly was beating himself up about not being able to speak his mind, but it seemed to come out as irritation and anger towards you; not intentional of course.



You jumped slightly, startled as you looked back into the stormy grey eyes of the one and only Lance Corporal Levi. Quickly saluting him, your head bowed lightly in embarrassment.



“I am truly sorry Heichou. I did not mean to stay out past curfew...I just...I guess I was drawn towards the stars...Reminds me of home…” your eyes remained downcast.



Levi studied your beautiful features, wanting to reach out and run his fingers along the contours of your face. He noticed the light redness of your cheeks, finding it quite cute actually, and the way your eyes lit up when he saw that it was him. For minutes both stood in silence as the swelling in his heart continued to grow at a unfathomable rate.



“______?” he softly said your name.



“Yes, Heichou?” your bright eyes looked up at him with curiosity and a hint of nervousness.



“I…” Levi stuttered, his hand gently reaching up, almost touching your face but let it fall back to his side and looked away.



“Good night, ______. Get some sleep…You’ll need it...”



“Thank you...Heichou...You as well...Good night…” you nodded and smiled.



“Levi...You can call me Levi…You know that already...” he said as he stuck his hands in his pockets before walking away, his back somewhat slouched over as if in disappointment.



“Levi…” you said softly, a smile spreading across your face as you said it.



Curiosity built within your mind. ‘Was he trying to touch my face?’ you thought to yourself as your fingers gently ran over your heated cheek. ‘No...he couldn't have...how could he want someone like me?’. The thought of him seemed to be ever crawling back into your mind lately. In truth, you were deeply, and irrevocably in love with him. But if you were ever to admit it, was unknown.



As you lay in bed that night his face came into view in your mind. His stormy grey eyes that stared into yours intently, his sharp and handsome features, the strength and weight that he carried...He was a man. But he was more than that. He was Humanity’s Strongest, yet everyone seemed to forget about one fact : he was still a man with a beating heart and feelings, even if he may not show them. You never forgot about that part of him. You thought of him as a man, a great man at that. You respected him, admired him. Other’s might find him cold, but you knew that only as the surface to Levi Ackerman.



You knew more than others did about him, knew some of the depth of him that he willing showed. Only for you.



You took every opportunity to help him, even if it were to do something simple as making tea for him. Some might see this as trying to “kiss up” to the Corporal to get out of cleaning duty, but the simple fact was you were more than willing to do it if it helped Levi stress less.

2 Weeks Later



“____??? _____???? Dammit ____! Stay with me, brat! Don’t you dare die on me!” the faint sound of Levi’s voice came from the edge of your consciousness.



The mission had been a total failure. The female titan had decimated your whole squad, and left you in a crumpled heap. You weren't sure where the main injuries were located in your body; everything hurt in a white blinding pain. Your blood was slowly draining from your body with each passing moment.



“_____!!! Don’t you fucking leave me!! _____….” his voice was cracking, eyes watering and teeth clenching as you were being transported back through the city.



When faced with  death, all thoughts cross your mind. Thoughts of the past, thoughts of what are, and thoughts of what could have been. Your life was slowly draining, you didn’t know how much left you had in yourself.



As you slowly drifted off into unconsciousness, you heard three words come from Levi, that you never thought possible.



“I love you ____…...I love you…”

2 days later



Levi sat at his desk, staring at the tea in his cup, a cup of tea that you hadn't made. He glared at it, and let out a small “tch”. An uncomfortable Sasha gulped nervously as she awaited to be dismissed.



He took a sip of the liquid, scrunching up his face as it entered his mouth.



“Tch...disgusting…”



“Uh...I uh...want me to make you a new one…?” Sasha nervously asked.



“No _____...I... “ his eyes widened as your name accidentally escaped his lips and his hand turned into a fist and he slammed it onto his desk. “ GET OUT!!” he yelled, his grey eyes furiously burning an imaginary hole in her head and threw the tea cup in her direction.



Sasha’s eyes widened, ducking out of the way before she ran out of the room quicker than she could scarf down a loaf of bread. The cup shattered against the wooden door, the contents of it spilling not only on the door but onto the floor.



“Dammit...Tch...idiot…” he scolded himself and sighed, standing up slowly and walking towards the mess. He got got his duster and rags, slowly cleaning up the mess that he created. He sighed sadly and ran his fingers through his raven locks.



“Shit” he hissed lightly as a piece of glass cut into the tip of his pale finger, a small drip of blood forming and dripping down into his palm. All thoughts seemed to flow into his mind like the drips of blood from a wound ; painful, and slowly draining all that is left. His whole squad was dead, because he had made a bad call. In his mind, he hated himself, blamed himself. He would never show it, but it was wearing him down. And now with you in the infirmary, he blamed himself even more. How he should’ve told you that night how he felt about you. It all haunted his mind.



Now...he may have lost his chance....Or had he?



***


3 weeks later



You were on the mend now, your wounds had been attended to and checked up on each day. You weren't yet ready for full active service yet,  but you were determined to do so. The day you lost your whole squad still haunted your mind, and you couldn't even begin to describe the amount of guilt that you carried on your shoulders. It was a loss you thought you would never get over.



During the days in the infirmary your friends visited you, making sure to bring you something to eat and adjusting your pillows every so often. It was good to see their faces, even if they were not those of your squad. They kept you sane.



At night when you were asleep, sometimes you woke up to see Levi asleep in the chair next to your bed, his face twitching every so often, signaling that he was having a bad dream. It was a sight you liked and hated seeing. Having him being by your side was something you loved, yet the idea of him having nightmares worried you. The thought of the words he had said before you had lost consciousness during the trip back to the city after you had been injured, played in your mind over and over again.



‘I love you ____… I love you’



You didn’t know what to make of it. Had that have been something that you had made up in your head? Some fantasy you had created to provide yourself comfort? Or had it been real? Had he actually confessed to you his love? In your heart you knew it was real...but...how were you to bring that up? You had no idea.



That morning Sasha came to your room and helped you out of your bed, slowly helping you walk. Your ankle was still badly sprained, but it was healing slowly, and the Doctor told you to make sure you had even the slightest bit of exercise, but not in excess.



“ You know...you should really talk to him about it ____...You know you have to address it at some point” Sasha looked at you knowingly, causing you to sigh. You knew she was right. But what were you to do? What if what he said was only something he said in the heat of the moment?



“I know Sasha I just...I don’t know what to do. How would I even bring it up? I’m not...good with this sort of thing…” you sighed lightly.



“ ____ he said he loved you. He wouldn't have said it if he didn't mean it. And the way he always looks at you, the way he stays with you over night even though you're asleep. It’s obvious to everyone but you ya know. Always has been”



You bit on your lip lightly as you continued down the hallway, thinking about it. That’s when you felt Sasha stop and turn around to see the person who tapped on her shoulder. It was Levi.



“Cadet you’re dismissed. I will take it from here” Levi nodded to Sasha.



“Uh...right! Yes Heichou. Uh..I guess i’ll see you later ____!” she smirked at you and winked, mouthing a  ‘Good luck’.



Levi quickly put an arm around your waist, allowing you to lean into him for support. You hissed lightly at the slight pain but was then led forward again.


“You seem to be progressing better lately” Levi spoke up.



You nodded lightly, your cheeks dusted lightly pink. “I...yes...Much better. Our Doctors are quite skilled…”



“Yes indeed. You are fortunate you made it just in time. I almost...We almost lost you” Levi frowned and looked ahead.



“Thank you Levi...if it weren’t for you...I would be dead for sure…” You paused for a moment. “ Levi…?”



“Hmm?” Levi raised an eyebrow at you curiously.



“I remember...I heard...I heard what you said...when...back when you were taking me back to the city. I remember everything…” you shyly looked down and he stopped in his tracks, halting you both to a stop.



He swallowed lightly and breathed deeply, not looking at you. “And?”



Your heart sped up faster and your cheeks were  burning. “I…” You started and paused for a moment as he turned to you and stared at your face with his stormy grey eyes. Your cheeks were quickly reddening.



“You what?” Levi gritted his teeth “You don’t feel the same way. I get it. Just... forget about it”. He hissed as he walked away, his hands in his pockets once again.



“Good morning Hei--” Eren was cut off as Levi hissed at him.



“Go help_____ back into the infirmary” Levi said as he walked passed him and around the corner.



“Levi!! LEVI!!! JUST LISTEN!!” You yelled at him, shocked at his sudden reaction and quite angry as well. How could he not even let you speak before he came to conclusions? You loved him with all your heart, but how could you tell him if he wasn’t even going to listen. Your teeth gritted and your hands balled up into fists. The man was so damned complicated sometimes. Why was he acting like this with you? When you saw him next you were going to knock some sense into that man.



“What was that all about?” Eren raised an eyebrow as he helped you back into the infirmary.



“ Heichou being a pain in the ass” you growled.

1 Week Later



Your ankle had healed mostly, it was a bit painful to walk on but you could put more pressure on it than before, as well as walk on your own. Now was the time where you were going to talk to Levi. It had been a week since you had seen Levi. You were pissed to say the least that he hadn't let you finish your sentence , but today you weren't going to hold back nor let him interrupt. You didn't care if you got punishment you needed to say what you had to say.



You lightly knocked on the door and heard a heavy sigh from within.



“State your name and business” Levi said in an irritated voice from his desk.



“______.And we need to talk. Now” You hissed, your teeth gritting.



A moment of silence passed before his voice rang out from his room.



“Leave”



“Pfft fuck that” you opened the door against his wishes and barged in, going right up to his desk and slamming your hands on it.



Levi’s stormy grey eyes glared at you dangerously as he sat up from his desk “What the fuck do you think your--”



You cut him off “ No you shut up and sit the hell down. You’re going to listen to me whether you fucking like or not”



“Tch...brat your going to regret this...” his grey eyes held surprise that you would speak in such a manner, but he knew you were being serious. He reluctantly sat down and continued to glare in your direction.



“ Last week you stormed off like a 2 year old who doesn't get his way. You didn't even let me finish my sentence! If you had bothered to wait like any other human being, you would know that I would have said that I fucking love you too, you idiot!!” you yelled at him, your fists clenching at your sides.  “But no. You just stomped off and---” This time, it was him who cut you off again. This time, in a way you didn't mind in the slightest.



While you were busy yelling at him, he had stood up and pulled you to him, smashing his lips against yours in a heated kiss. His arms wrapped around your waist as he hoisted you up onto his desk and stood in between your legs, kissing you deeply. His fingers tangling in your silky locks as you gently place your hands on his chest and kiss him back passionately. He took the opportunity to gently nip at your lip, begging for entrance, which you eagerly allowed as he explored the depths of your mouth as if trying to memorize every bit of it.



Eventually the need for air became too much, and you both pulled away panting, and rested your foreheads together. For a few minutes you just stood there, eyes baring into each others' eyes with undeniable love and relief. His hand gently caresses your cheek and thumb gently rubbing the softness of your cheek.



“I’ve been wanting to do that...for a damned long time…” he smirked.



“Me too...Dummy…” you giggled and kissed his nose. “You just had to listen”



“Dummy?” he smirks cheekily “You're going to be punished for that ”



“Oh? And what punishment might that be?” you smirked coyly causing him to chuckle.



Levi kissed you lightly before holding you close against his chest.. “You’re stuck with me”



“I don’t see a problem  with this arrangement” you giggled and blushed.



“Good” he smirked lightly and kissed the top of your head.



With all the days of confusion, all one needed to do was listen to hear the soft whispers of the heart that finally started to bleed.
