#NO ONE'S  POV#

"So Jaëger, do you want to learn or die?", Levi states as if it's the most normal thing in the world.

Eren stares at him wide-eyed and maybe a little turned on..."L-learn sir."

"Good, now come here.", he says but when Eren doesn't move he decides to walk to him instead. "I'm gonna let you borrow Killer here...", he explains while stroking Killer's back.

"K-killer? Oh, you don't have to sir! I'll just ride on Hope here...", he denies Levi nervously.
"Did it sound like a request?", Levi snaps at Eren while taking Killer closer to Eren. "We will use Killer or it's to the Titans with you. It's your choice.", Levi states calmly, almost bored.

"I'll take Killer sir...", Eren says softly not making eye contact with Levi.
"Good, come here!", Levi says while Eren slowly makes his way towards him. "Yes sir?", he stands so close that he can almost hear Levi breathe.

"Ok, you'll have to take the reins and put your foot on the footrest over here-", he points to everything he talks about so that Eren knows what to do."- then you pull yourself up, throw your leg over to the other side of the horse and sit on the saddle.", he finishes his lesson.

Once Eren has done everything Levi showed him he sits up on the horse excited over his first ever horse-riding lesson, and not to even mention that it is being given to him by his CRUSH!!
How did he get so lucky...

"Ok sir, all done.", he tells Levi excitedly and Levi can swear he felt his heart skip a beat.
"Ok, then you take the strap and flick it gently, as a signal for Killer to move forward. If you want to stop or turn just pull the strap backwards or in the direction you want him to go. Ok let's see you try that...", he steps back to give Eren some space to practise with Killer.

Eren flicks Killer's reign strap, gently, but he doesn't move an inch. He tries again and again but nothing can get Killer to move from his position. Levi raises his brow and steps closer to the frustrated Eren, who he had to admit looked rather cute, on his horse.

"Why isn't he moving", Eren whines frustrated.
"Are you afraid? Nervous?", he asks the boy on the horse's back, casually crossing his arms.
"Maybe a little sir...", he rubs his neck in nervousness, a habit he picked up back home...

"Well, that's the problem. He can smell fear, he won't move if he's not sure that you KNOW what you want him to do-", he approaches Eren, unknowingly, and gets on Killer's back, with Eren in front of him. "-here, let me show you...", he says as he gently cups Eren's hands, that are still holding onto the reins, and together they flick the strap and Killer moves forward and stops when Levi makes them pull on the strap again.

"See. Confidence is keen. Now you try.", he says as he lets go of Eren's hands, the younger hoping he wouldn't.
Eren takes the strap from Levi, their fingers brushing against one another in the exchange, both boys' hearts nearly jumping out of their chests.

With a deep breath and eyes full of determination, he flicks the strap once again and this time around... Killer moves!!

In a matter of seconds Eren's gloomy, nervous appearance combusts into a happy, joyful, smiling face. He turns around fast and unconsciously gives Levi the biggest hug he's ever had, and when he realizes what's happening, he quickly spins around, his back turned to Levi, trying to shield away his burning, cherry-red face, not knowing that behind him Levi still sits shocked, confused, maybe even a little happy and with a lot of red across his cheeks.

After a few seconds of awkward silence, Eren gets off of Killer and onto Hope (thanks to Levi's lesson) and rides away on her, back to where the rest of the members are waiting for them to finish.

#EREN POV#

Oh, no!! I can't believe I did that! I'm so embarrassed! Why, Eren, Why!!?!?
He doesn't like you, so why would you do that? You have to get your emotions under control!
But the way he helped me... I felt something...and he didn't push me away. Was he just too shocked to do anything? or was it because we were on a horse and he couldn't push me away without falling? I-i don't know...

#LEVI POV(same time as Eren's)#

OH! MY!! GOODNESS!!! Did he just hug me!! I can't believe it! He was so warm I didn't want him to let go, but the way he looked at me afterwards... in shock, maybe even disgust? Now I know he doesn't feel the same. No one looks at someone they like, like that...but the way his hands felt on mine...it's like nothing I've ever experienced before. It's almost like- and I know this is clichè- but it felt like we were made for each other.

I don't know if I should tell him. Should I? Will I just scare him away? What if he isn't even into guys? I don't even know if there's something worse than the rejection I might get from him... What if he laughs at me? Should I just laugh along and say it's all a joke... well it's not... at least not to me...

He continues to ride on to the place everyone is waiting at, his mind still going crazy over 'what if's?' and 'maybe's?', still blushing like crazy and when he sees Eren all he can see is the boy of his dreams with his adorably pinkish cheeks.

Later on, after the training mission everyone ate and went to bed early, exhausted from the day's activities. Eren and Levi are still on each other's minds...
