(AN: switching to past tense bc im too used to it ugh)

-3rd person

Eren and Levi don't have much in common but they had a few things that they both hated and one of them are parties. Sure any guy would find a party an excellent way to hook up with some pretty girl and maybe even flirt if they were lucky but this isn't the case.

People getting drunk annoy them both and they just didn't want to deal with anything weird while people were turnt as fuck.

It's now late evening and the majority of the people at the party are indeed drunk but this is only the beginning.
The air smells of sweat and tequila and possibly even vomit which disgusts Levi on a very high level. They were all at Hanji and Erwin's new house and the lights have went down so it was very dim. The house was a little too big for just a newly wed couple and people were easily lost in here.

Everyone was dancing- well...not really but basically just swaying their hips from side to side and jumping up and down like school children would at pre-teen dances. The house wasn't filled with much furniture besides couches and alcohol battles so it very much resembled an exclusive night club.

Loud and heavy dubstep filled with violent drops and beats were playing but even so, Hanji and Erwin were both slow dancing in the middle of the room as if they couldn't hear anything at all. Eren was sitting on a black, leather couch with his head resting on the arm.

He didn't do much besides chat a little to Hanji and a few other people like Christa and Armin but that was about it. He wasn't bored but just tired and he hasn't seen Levi much during the party because he was probably making sure that no one would make a mess.

He really hoped Mikasa wouldn't find him and talk to him because she didn't know yet despite Levi being all touchy and close with Eren. He sighed and closed his eyes for a while. His life has gotten better since he started living with Levi but it still felt like such a mess.

There were a lot of reports on the news about Grisha and possibilities saying that he might me out there, alive and breathing. It scared Eren but his father couldn't find him if he no longer lived at his old house because of course it was burnt down to the ground in ashes.

Everything was perfect the way it was so why was he worrying so much?

After a while of deciding weather he should fall asleep or stay awake, he felt someone plop onto the couch beside him. He instantly scooted away a little to make some room but he felt hands wrap around his waist so he immediately opened his eyes.

"Hey," Levi said sheepishly with a bored expression...if that was even possible.

"Can we go home?" Eren complained. "I want to sleep."

"No."

"Why not?" he demanded.

"Because who's supposed to make sure that no one starts a riot when the alcohol is all gone? I can't just leave them here when they're all dead drunk, Eren, and it is their wedding night after all," Levi told him in a quiet voice.

Eren frowned but nodded.

"Hey, I'll make it up to you, okay? Tomorrow can just be you and I and wherever you want no matter how expensive it is," Levi declared.

Eren grinned a little; he couldn't stay mad at Levi because all the older male wanted was for Eren to be happy.

"Okay," he replied.

"Besides, if I weren't here everything would be fucked up," Levi told him. "Just hope and pray no one vomits on you."

"Please don't jinx it," Eren said tiredly.

"If it happens, I'd be glad to clean you up," he smirked and nuzzled his face into the crook of Eren's neck.

"Levi, please don't start this now," Eren said and shivered.

"Start what?" he asked and peppered his jawline with small, cold kisses.

"Levi, someone's going to see-"

"Eren! I didn't you'd actually show up at the party," Mikasa said when she was suddenly standing beside the couch. She was holding a glass of a mysterious liquid and by the way her voice sounded, Eren could tell she was a bit drunk because she didn't see Levi right away.

Levi didn't pull away when she showed up because he wanted her to know that Eren was his and his only. Mikasa was standing silently by the couch now with Eren looking frantically at Levi and that was when she dropped her glass. Of course the music was too loud to hear the glass smash into a million pieces so no one but Mikasa and Eren reacted at all.

"E-Eren! W-what-!" she exclaimed and she was shaking. "I thought you weren't interested in anyone!"

"I-" Eren began was shortly interrupted when Mikasa stomped over in front of the couch where Levi was still ignoring her presence.

"You dumped me for this midget?" she yelled but again the music was still louder than her. "Isn't he like thirty years old?"

"Whoa," Levi said and finally pulled away from Eren. "Twenty seven."

"That doesn't matter!" she bellowed as Eren flinched. "He is way too mature and old for you and you never told me you were interested in the same gender as you! You always used to tell me things and now it's like you don't even trust me anymore!"

"Someone's mad," Levi snickered with a smug face.

"Of course I'm mad! You don't even talk to me anymore and I never knew you would drop this low, Eren, he's nine years older than you and he was the one keeping you away from me and Armin and all of your other friends."

That wasn't true. He saw Armin more often than Mikasa and he still saw his friends at the bakery because he still works there with a lot of his friends actually. He just didn't talk to Mikasa as much because he knew she would react this way. She was an amazing person, really, but she was selfish.

"What are you trying to say?" Eren finally said and sighed. "That going out with you would be better? Are you saying you're more superior than Levi?"

He gently tugged Levi away from his which earned a frown but Eren got up so he could talk to Mikasa face to face.

"You're the one that I don't see anymore. He hasn't been keeping me away from anyone at all. I've texted you too many times to maybe come visit me at the bakery but of fucking course you were way too busy with your boxing lessons and I understand that. I understand if your precious boxing is more important than visiting me at least once," Eren commented sarcastically.

Mikasa was absolutely stunned but she didn't speak and that was good because Eren wanted to say what he really felt.

"You were the one who always pestered me about heading over to my place or your place and you always insisted that I should hang out with you all the time. But Levi? He always insists that I stay by his side all the time but I like it that. He never pushed me into some relationship that I wasn't even interested in so it's your fault, Mikasa, it's your own fault that I don't see you anymore."

His words hit Mikasa like the atomic bomb exploding in those Japanese cities Nagasaki and Hiroshima. She was trembling and biting her lip to keep tears from spilling over her eyes.

"I'm sorry for your stupidity which made you think you would be better for me than Levi," he said and shook his head sadly.

They were both dead silent before Mikasa started to talk again.

"I'm sorry you feel that way, Eren," she said before walking away slowly and fading away with the crowd of sweaty bodies and the beat of Skrillex dubstep.

Eren was hardly yelling at her but his breath came in a ragged rhythm and his heart was beating as loud as a drum. He shook his head and stared over at Levi who seemed to still have a bored and neutral expression but by the light of his eyes Eren could tell he found this rather amusing.

"You're so mean," he said and laughed coldly. "I'm impressed."

"Oh shit, She's never going to talk to me ever again," Eren said nervously and collapsed back onto the couch. "This was partially your fault for making me say those things to her."

"Me?" Levi asked and raised his eyebrows. "The fuck did I ever do?"

"YOU'RE MAKING IT TOO PUBLIC," Eren said through gritted teeth.

"So you're embarassed?" he asked with a perked eyebrow.

"H-hey I never said that," Eren stammered in response.

"Oi, come closer, brat."

"No. You're going to do something."

"You always say that," the older male whined.

"Well it's always true."

"Ah, you know me too well," he said and brushed the black hair out of his eyes so that the sharp glint of desire was visible in his steel, grey eyes.

That was partially true. All Eren knew was that Levi was a twenty seven year old doctor who played League of Legends and went to the library in his free time but that was about it. Rather than those things there was nothing else because Eren wasn't very observant.

"I'm bored," Levi complained as his lolled onto Eren's shoulder which caught the teen by surprise. "All everyone's doing is getting drunk and vomiting."

"That's why I asked if we could go home, stupid," Eren said and rolled his eyes. "I'm sure Hanji and Erwin would be okay here without you and Erwin didn't even drink too much."

Levi stayed silent before speaking up again as if he were thinking of a very hard and challenging question.

"I guess you're right," he finally agreed.

"So can we go home?" Eren begged.

"Alright," Levi whispered. "Only because I love you."

Eren's face started to heat up and his avoided Levi's piercing gaze.

"Shut up."

It was almost four AM in the morning once they returned to their small yet cozy apartment. After Hanji came back from Eren he did manage to convince her to let him stay with Levi and like the yaoi fangirl she is of course she said yes.

A dark, dim light was peaking through the curtains of the room like they would at hotel rooms; that one moment in the middle of the night when you would wake up and stare at the window and you would see the comforting darkness of the night. 

Eren immediately started to remove his suit as he headed to the bedroom while Levi followed sleepily.

"Tomorrow we should walk around the park," Eren suggested and flopped onto the bed with nothing but his boxers.

Levi threw a tee shirt at him and frowned. "That sounds normal."

"What is that supposed to mean?" Eren asked and laughed.

"You're a pesky child; don't you want to go to the amusement park or skating like any child would want to do?"

"Anywhere is perfect if it's with you," Eren admitted shyly as he quickly changed into the given shirt and of course it was one of Levi's because it had the AP champ yordle also known as Teemo on the front and he looked quiet menacing even though he was tiny and fluffy.

"Cute," he replied in a deadpanned voice but he smiled a little and seeing him smile for real was pretty rare and made Eren happy for some reason. His smile was so fucking beautiful it would make any teenage girl cry.

"If you're refering to Teemo I guess you're right because look at that panda and astronaut skin is wonderful and the animation is amazing."

"I meant you, dumbass," Levi responded and sat beside the teen.

"Gee thanks."

"Night, Eren," Levi said and pulled the blankets over the both of them. He switched off the lamp light but even so they still continued to talk.

Eren's voice was Levi's favourite sound and Levi's name was Eren's favourite word.
