Chapter 7
I woke up to a loud blaring of my alarm and turned it off without even having to open my eyes. I should really get out of the habit of turning off my alarm, but then again I love sleep.
I pull off the cover, as I go to stand and feel a sharp sting in my back.
'Okay. Maybe not the best idea to provoke him'. But I can't complain, I was able to complete the To-do-list.
I turn on my phone and slide through all the notifications, some from work reminding me of my impending doom teaching French, and one important one that has me practically jumping out of bed.
I push Levi, causing him to curse in a muffled tone before lifting his head from the pillow.
"What??" I turn on my phone so he can see the clock and I toss it to him as I scramble to get my pants on.
"We're late!!! Auditions start in twenty minutes! Get your short ass out of bed and hurry!!"
I rush into the bathroom, wet and smear toothpaste on my toothbrush. I brush my teeth as I run around the house trying to get everything together.
This reminded me of high school when I would accidentally wake up two hours late. It would all start with me waking up feeling suspiciously well rested.
Levi seemed to be in panic mode as well. He ran past me in sweat pants, a loose t-shirt, and flip flops, rushing down the stairs with a large duffle bag.
"Bright eyes get in the car! I got our costumes!" Levi screamed as he slammed the door.
Rushing back to the bathroom I rinse and check my hair hoping it's at least semi-respectable, but with no luck and no time to fix it, I have to settle on major bed head.
I rush outside and meet Levi in the car, and he speeds off before I can even fully close the door.
"Eren I told you to set the alarm!" He glances over at me giving me one of his signature death glares.
"Sorry! I did, I just have a habit of hitting snooze. I probably hit it a good ten times before actually waking up!" I'm nervous about the auditions. If I mess up, not only will that screw up our chances, it will screw up Levi's chances at winning the club back. And I know how much it means to him.
"Damn!" Levi whispers as the car jerks forward coming to a stop. So far we've hit every red light possible.
Thanks god, for not only putting all this anger into such a tiny body, but also feeling the need to poke it with a stick!
I'd like to think he has self control, but I'm pretty sure last week he threw a dictionary at a kid for using the word 'literally' the wrong way, far to many times.
We quickly pulled up to a abandoned looking building with a man in a black shirt guarding the doorway,
"Levi, if I wake up in a tub of ice, clear my search history." Levi punches my shoulder and we get out of the car.
He walks up to the man and hands him the flyer. "We're here for the auditions." The man looks down and sighs.
"Started ten minutes ago. Hurry up and find your place." He opens the black rusty door and my heart begins to race.
We walk down a dark hallway dimly lit by the flickering light bulbs. The place smells like booze and bad decisions.
And overall I feel like I'm in the first five minutes of supernatural.
As we get further down the hall we can hear the slight beat of music getting louder and louder as we approach another man, dressed in black, beside an elevator.
"Um...I'm Eren, this is my bo-Levi. This is my...Levi....we're here for the auditions..." I say shyly scratching the back of my head moving Levi in front of me.
He looks down at his list and nods pressing an elevator button, and the doors open. We step in as the second man begins to speak,
"Bottom floor." Ahh. A man of many words.
I press floor 6, which is as low as you can go and the doors slowly close.
I turn to Levi but he's already glaring.
"Eren, if this idea gets me killed, I will haunt your ass. " I laugh nervously, of course I'm not sure what I'm nervous about at this point. Maybe it's the ominous men guarding the doors, or the creepy dark hallway, or my boyfriends future riding in the palms of my hands, or it could be the death glare I'm receiving.
"If you die I'll probably die too. Then you can't haunt me. It will be like Romeo and Juliet."
He scoffs and leans against the back of the elevator.
"Yeah, except they weren't teachers who died with stripper clothes in a duffle bag, hoping to save their second carrier as pole dancers at a club that's name is literally 'no pants', in the bottom of an abandoned building. But other than that, yeah. Romeo and Juliet." He mocks in a sarcastic tone.
"Listen, Levi, I just want to help. As much as I can. I know I'm not the smartest and more often than not I rush into situations before thinking it out. But, I love you. I'd do anything to make you happy. And that's exactly what this club does. It makes you happy. So I'll be damned if I let it disappear."
I can see a slight blush appear on Levi's face and he grabs my shirt,
"Come here brat," he leans in and his lips meet mine in a swift kiss, that made my heart skip two beats.
"I love you too Eren. Or should I say, Juliet." I laugh as the elevator comes to an abrupt stop and the doors creak open.
Instantly blaring music floods the elevator as we step into a dark room illuminated with flashing colourful lights.
"Well, I think we're in the right place," I say stepping out of the elevator intertwining Levi's hand with my own.
We make our way through the crowd of people and I have to say, it's a lot nicer on the inside; there were white couches, three different bars to get your drinks, a huge centre stage with 3 poles, and leather chairs and couches surrounding the base of the stage which I'm guessing is for VIPS.
As we make our way through the crowd we spot a desk not far from the stage. Levi leads us towards the desk, probably desperate to get away from all the people trying to cop a feel.
He approaches the lady and slams his hand on the desk causing her to look up.
"Levi Ackerman and Eren Yeager." She flips through some papers before stopping at our names.
"You're on in five. You're dressing room 3, behind the stage to the right. Good luck." She winks at Levi and I can't help but feel a tiny bit jealous.
I put my arm around his waist and lean in and say thanks, immediately walking to the dressing rooms.
"Thank you" Levi says just loud enough to catch my ears.
"For what?" I find our dressing room and open the door allowing Levi to walk in first, I close the door behind me.
"Being here for me. Doing all this for me. It really means a lot Eren. No one has ever done anything overly nice to me without wanting something in return." I walk over to him and kiss his forehead.
"The only thing I want in return is your love." He leans in and hugs me, before grabbing the bag and changing into his costume, throwing mine at me.
I try and set the world record for stripping, and change into my costume as fast as possible.
I look over to Levi and my jaw drops, this must be a new costume. I look at my stunning (to say the least) boyfriend, and the only thought that comes to mind is how the fuck did I pull this off.
He smirks and winks at me before speaking, "well Juliet, you ready?"
