Chapter 7
————————————————-
Levi woke up with a start.
He wasn’t where he was supposed do be, his body felt like it wasn’t supposed to be.
The mer quickly sat up, steel eyes flashing sharply and his gills flared up in a threatening manner. He looked around to see that he was on a large bed with a thick quilt covering his bottom half.
The raven lifted the quilt to see that he still had those smooth human legs, and was still wearing the shorts and jacket that Hange gave him.
Hange.
Where the hell was that shitty woman?
Levi looked up and noticed that he was in a room, but the place looked like a monsoon had washed over it.
What kind of beast lived in such a place?
The answer came to him in the form of memory, that shitty woman lived here and was responsible for this shitty mess.
Last night’s events came rushing back. After growing a pair of human legs, he checked and yes they were still there, he managed to literally walk out of the medical room he was in and get himself lost while looking for Hange. She found him asleep in the one of the many bathrooms in the research building, completely naked and much more human like. She was shocked at the new development but also because of his lack of clothing, which again he did not completely understand why it was such a big deal. After much convincing from Erwin, the brunette scientist ended up taking him home with her. As soon as they arrived to her humble abode, she took note of the Mer’s exhaustion and let him take her bed, he passed out as soon as his head hit the pillow.
And now here he was, wide awake and sat up straight on his caretaker’s bed and glaring at the mess around him.
Humans were truly a disgusting species.
Sure, the ocean was just as disgusting but Levi always kept himself and the space around him clean. Always scrubbing out the scum and sea foam from the rocks of the underwater caves he would sleep in with sponges and neatly crafting makeshift beds with the finest peices of sea weed he could find. Other Mermyds would make fun of him for it but he didn’t care.
This mess around him was irritating him beyond belief.
The mer tossed the bed sheet off of him and climbed out of the bed before clumsily getting to to his feet. His toes wiggled comfortably at the soft feel of the carpeted floor beneath him. The half man crossed the room with much more ease than the night before and examined the area with care.
The room itself was modest, there here shelves mounted on the cream colored walls that were stacked to the brim haphazardly with books. Next to the bed he slept in was a dresser table that had a small alarm clock and various of half empty cups of who knows what and random wrappers and crumpled up papers.
There was a desk near the door and closet, it held a mess of books, papers, charging cords, pens and pencils. The Chair in front of it was draped with clothing that was also strewn all over the floor.
Levi sighed and bent over to pick up the clothes on the floor and placed onto the chair with the rest of them when something on the desk caught his eye. It was a picture frame, of course but the ravenette had heard stories about how humans could capture the souls of another into into a small square and was awfully curious if this was what hey were referring to. The Mer leaned closer and cocked his head, it was the image of Hange and two other people both blondes one man one woman, they both looked familiar. The woman’s hair was very short and her skin was fair, the man’s hair was a bit long, the bangs covered most of his face and he also had a prominent mustache. They all had on goofy smiles and Hange had two fingers sticking up in the form of a peace sign.
He may not be completely human but he was pretty sure Hange still had her soul.
The mer padded over to the door and slowly turned the knob just like he’d seen Hange do and peered down the hallway. The house was quiet and a bit dark, the only light was coming from the rising sun outside and spilled through the curtains.
He strolled out into the hall and stopped in front a flight of stairs. Levi glared at the stairs with great determination and began to slowly descend them, one foot after the other while tightly gripping the wooden railing. He grinned as he made it to the last step and turned the corner, his bare foot suddenly struck something hard and caused him to fall over with a surprised yelp.
A hiss escaped him when he felt pain bloom from his stubbed toes and curled up into himself on the floor. After a few seconds he sat up to look at what had tripped him.
A cardboard box.
Many of them were scattered around near the landing of the stairs.
The mer frowned and shook his head as he got back up onto his bare feet. He slowly made his way around the boxes and found himself in another room, the kitchen. Like a lost child in a grocery store, Levi stumbled around. It wasn’t until his stomach gargled loudly did he realize that he was extremely ravenous.
Food
The animalistic side in him protested for sustenance, a low growl rising from his chest as he breathed in deep. The mer sniffed the air around him and followed the scent of what he assumed was food and ended up in front of the refrigerator. It was silver and had a touch pad on the right door. It was a smart fridge, but of course Levi didn’t know any of that.
He sniffed around it and inspected it with a cautious gaze, before grabbing one of the handles and yanking it.
It didn’t open, but the whole refrigerator almost tipped over from the force.
Levi huffed and attempted to pull it open again, a little more gentle this time. Another growl ripped from his throat in frustration before he slammed a hand against it, right where the touch pad was. The refrigerator beeped and he hissed and skittered backwards at the sound. Both the fridge and the freezer door opened, effectively surprising the raven yet again.
Once he was sure the contraption wasn’t going to attack him, he approached it and sniffed inside. He shivered from the cold and tucked himself further into Hange’s jacket as he peeked inside of the fridge.
The scent of fish wafted lightly in his nostrils and made a beeline towards the freezer and produced a bag of frozen salmon. Levi sat himself on the kitchen floor infront of the refrigerator and tore the bag open. He frowned in annoyance when a few fillets fell onto the floor beneath him.
After he picked up the mess he took one and attempted to take a large bite. He hissed in mild pain and extreme aggravation when his sharp fangs met cold hard resistance. The mer continued to gnaw on the frozen peice of fish out of hunger and desperation, his teeth made a loud clacking sound as they hit against the frozen surface. Once he got fed up he just tossed the fish back into the freezer and huffed.
Then a different smell teased his senses.
It was salty and meaty, and it made his stomach grumble loudly.
Levi leaned his small frame into the fridge side and dug around for the source of the delicious smell.
He produced a package of smoked cold cut ham.
The small ravenette wasted no time on ripping it open and shoving the slices of deli meat into his watering mouth. His eyes widened in surprise at the taste and he hastily shoved more of it into his already full mouth, which he would have found disgusting but he was too hungry to care.
It was was absolutely scrumptious, the meat. Of course nothing could compare to fresh fish, but this was absolutely hitting the spot.
“...And while he is in your care, you will be responsible for him and his actions and needs. As long as he is out here in the world the way he is he will be considered human. It will be your responsibility that he understands what that means, we don’t need anymore mass hysteria about Mermyds being dangerous and evil creatures. The tabloids would have a field day.”
Hange chuckled wryly at Erwin’s last comment.
They were all in his office in a meeting about Levi. It was just Hange, Erwin and Mike.
“I will make sure that everyone else here knows about the current situation as well, but for now it’s business as usual”
“Understood,” Hange nodded as she got up from her seat in front of Erwin’s desk. “Permission to leave early today? I kinda left the grumpy fish alone at home, haha.
Her boss gave her an unimpressed glare. “Just go.” He waved at her dismissively.
She just grinned sheepishly before grabbing her bag and waved goodbye to both Erwin and Mike and trotted our of the door.
Half an hour later, Hange arrived home and almost tripped over a box on her way over to the dining room area.
“Jesus I should really unpack those.” She muttered to herself as she caught herself against the wall that connected to the kitchen.
It’s been six months since she moved into this house. It was her mother’s house, she had inherited it when she died those months ago. If she was honest, she hadn’t really felt anything when she died. Their relationship wasn’t really normal nor close. Her mother would leave her with her father a lot to business travel when she was young. She’s much more close to her father, even though now he lives in Germany. But know here she was living alone in a unnecessarily huge house- well not alone, she now had Levi to look after.
Hange huffed and set her bag on the dinner table before making her way into the kitchen. The brunette immediately stopped in her tracks when she saw that both of the doors of the refrigerator were open. She quickly walked up to it and saw that inside was a whole mess of empty containers, bags and wrappers, but nothing inside of the freezer was messed with except for a bag of frozen salmon fillets. The biologist let out a surprised squawk.
“Who the hell ate all of my food?!?”
The culprit waddled into the kitchen with a bored expression, barefoot and clad in the same spandex shorts and her jacket from the day before.
“Levi?! Seriously?!!!!”
He flinched at her volume and gave her a confused but annoyed look.
“Why must you humans be so loud?” He grumbled.
“Oh I don’t know, maybe because YOU EMPTIED OUT MY FRIDGE!”
She knew that Mermyds had a large appetite but damn.
Levi shrunk back away from her, sensing anger rising.
“I was hungry...” he mumbled, not looking her in the eyes.
All of the anger in her drained out once she saw his demeanor. She sighed and closed both doors of the fridge before walking up to Levi and placing a comforting hand on his shoulder.
“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have screamed like that, you don’t know any better. You were just following your instincts. I also shouldn’t leave you alone anymore.” She told him apologetically.
The raven looked up at her and she gave him a warm, reassuring smile that made him feel weird again.
“I have an idea!” She perks up and Levi flinches away again, this time from her exuberance.
“I was planning on doing some grocery shopping this week...that was before you suddenly become so human.”
Levi gave her a death glare. “Not human.”
Hange grimaced and laughed awkwardly. “Ah, right sorry, before you grew legs, that’s what I meant.”
“... and I can’t really leave you alone again, you’ll probably chew on the furniture or something.” The brunette joked and the mer gave her a confused look.
“You look acceptably human,” his caretaker continued as she examined him from head to toe. “We’re just going to have to conceal the parts of you that are..not human.”
He fidgeted underneath her experimental gaze. The Mermyd was able to keep up with what the woman was saying, he just didn’t know what the hell she was thinking to do with him. And what the hell was ‘grocery shopping’ ?
His thoughts were interrupted when Hange grabbed him by the wrist and pulled him along with her.
“Come with me!” She said over her shoulder as she dragged her upstairs and towards her bedroom.
Levi tried his best to keep up with her, his bare feet often tripping and catching against the steps.
“Oi,Oi you shitty human! What did I say about suddenly doing that?! Are your ears that filthy?!” He spat at her as they finally entered her room and he yanked his wrist from her grasp and rubbed at it with his other hand.
“Sorry, sorry, I’ll be careful next time hehe.” She apologized before heading to her closet to dig through it.
Hange’s companion made a ‘Tch’ sound before sitting himself on the edge of her bed that he woke up in earlier to observe her actions.
“Can you explain all this mess?” He grumbled and Hange emerged from the closet with a sheepish grin and a black turtleneck sweater.
“Haha, I don’t really have the time to do house cleaning. Of course it must have been easy for you, the whole ocean was your home.”
A sudden sadness passed through his system as he looked down at his lap. He missed the ocean, he missed the feel of it’s salty currents against his slick tail as he glided through the blue canvas. He missed racing against Farlan, from the bottom of the reef floor to the surface of the water, not quite breaking through it as Isabel would cheer along. His heart squeezed at the memory as his eyes began to glisten.
Hange suddenly wished she hadn’t said anything once she saw the moisture that began to collect in his silver orbs.
“Oh no, hey I’m sorry, I should’ve known that would have been a sore subject for you.” She said to him softly as she sat next to him, close enough that their shoulders were touching.
The mermyd closed his eyes and shook his head softly, causing a lone tear to escape and trail down his cheek. Hange really had to resist the urge to wipe it away.
Levi wasn’t stupid, he new that he wouldn’t be able to return to the life he had before, living- no surviving in the vast blue. He had lost too much, Isabel, Farlan and his tail, it wouldn’t be the same. He is so much more vulnerable, subjected to live among the humans now. Isabel would be so envious of him, she was so obsessed with the human world. She’d often watch them from the surface as they would walk along the shores of the beach with families and small little humans-children, yes children. Isabel taught him most of what he knows about humans and their manurisms, she would often drag him up to the surface to do ‘people watching’ is what she would call it.
A sudden small noise escaped him, similar to the whine of a dog, when Hange wrapped her arms around his small frame.
“W-what are you doing, shitty glasss?” He sputtered embarrassingly, his face was pressed against the nape of her neck and he’d hope she couldn’t feel the way it burned at their closeness.
She smelled of the water from the place he was in before- the ‘rehabilitation center?’- sweat and a hint of something sweet that he could not decipher. The mixture was kind of weird but it comforted him a little.
“I’m hugging you, grumpy.” The brunette said in slight amusement as leaned her head against his and ran her thin fingers through the shorter side of his hair.
“..and why do you keep doing it?” He asked in confusion, not yet surrendering to her hold, Hange sighed at his tenseness.
“I do it to help you feel better, that’s usually the case with human contact- or any physical contact really. You know that during the process of skin to skin contact a type of endorphin is realeased-”
The ravenette tuned her out, he’s been around her enough to know when she was about to talk his ear off, he didn’t hate it but he really couldn’t grasp everything she was saying ‘endorphins?’ Hah.
He found himself relaxing in her arms, Hange had noticed to but didn’t comment, she just smiled and gave herself a mental pat on the back for her success.
The two of the stayed like that for a while, Levi let his slate eyes droop as he snaked his arms, that were trapped in between the both of them, around her waist and his clawed fingers gripped the back of her shirt just like he had done the night he broke down.
“I’m glad that you’re enjoying this.” The biologist teased as she patted his head gently.
He blushed furiously and yanked himself away from her with an unconvincing glare that made the bespeckled woman laugh profusely.
“That’s enough of that.” The mer stated before crossing his arms in front of his chest and looked at anywhere but her.
Hange chuckled and shook her head, aburn flyaways shifting from the movement, and pushed her round frames up the bridge of her nose as they began to slide down.
“Okay haha, but put this on.” She tossed the black turtleneck sweater that she recovered from the closet at to him and got up to rummage in it once again.
Levi picked the garment up with the sharp nails of his thumb and forefinger, not sure how exactly it worked yet. It did not have an opening in the front like the jacket he was wearing, so he guessed that you had to shove it over yourself. He did just that.
Hange caught him before he could pull it on.
“Wait, wait!” She giggled at him and he paused his actions to give her a confused glare.
“What? I’m putting it on.” He grunted at her and she had to cover her mouth with her hand to keep herself from laughing. He was halfway in the process of putting on the sweater, his head was poking out through the head hole and one arm was halfway in one sleeve while the other dangled helplessly.
“You have to take the jacket off first or you’ll suffocate.” She explained as she pulled the sweater off of him and unzipped the jacket and let him shrug it off.
That’s when she blushed lightly at the sight of his bare chest, it was like she was looking at some kind of sculpture. She shook her head, he had to swim for all of his life so of course he was ripped- it was natural, yes very natural, why was she acting like she’d never seen it before?
Levi sat there in front of her with his usual ‘bored with life’ expression, only wearing a pair of her spandex wet-shorts and waiting for her to come out of whatever trance she was in.
He made a small grunting sound when Hange quickly snapped out of it and quickly pulled the sweater over him and helped him slip his arms through each sleeve. Once it was on, she handed him a pair of her baggy boy jeans and told him to put it on like he had put on the shorts, but of course remove the shorts first. The mermyd nodded and stood up to take off the shorts and Hange quickly spun around and made a mental note to buy him some underwear.
Once she was sure he had the jeans on, she turned around and snorted at the image in front of her. The jeans were a bit too long for him and he left them unbuttoned, Levi frown down at himself and then looked at her for help. She assisted him by pulling the pants a little higher for him, effectively earning herself a surprised squeak from the poor mer, he had to hold onto her shoulders to keep himself upright as she bottoned it up. The brunette then bent down to cuff each of the pant legs so it ended just above his ankles.
“There!” She chirped before getting up to head back to the closet to look for her smallest fitting shoes, she ended up deciding on an old pair of high top chucks. When she presented them to Levi he grimaced and shook his head at her.
“I’m not putting those on.” He states while glaring at the dirtiness of the shoes, and Hange rolls her amber eyes.
“It’s fine Levi, humans wear shoes all the time. You can’t just be barefoot, you’ll hirt your poor little feet and get them dirty.”
The short half human glared at her when she called his feet little, but it was true, his feet were small. Shoes just looked so restricting and uncomfortable, but he also didn’t want to get his feet all torn up and disgusting so he complied and sat on the bed. Hange gave him some socks to slip on, after a long explanation on what they were used for, and helped fit the shoes on his feet.
“Now,” the woman sighed as she sat crouched down on her heels in front of him. “ I will eventually teach you how to tie your laces but for now I’ll do it for you so watch me closely.”
Levi nodded and directed his attention to what she was doing. She grabbed both of the laces and crossed them over each other before pulling one underneath the other and yanked them to tighten the shoe. Them she formed one lace into a loop and wrapped the other one around the loop before pulling it underneath and creating another loop and tightening both of them so that they now resembled bunny ears.
“Ta-da!” Hange cheered up at him while gesturing towards the now tied laces after she finished the other shoe. If he were anybody else they would be embarrassed with the fact the he couldn’t even tie his own shoes and that she had to do it for them like they were a child. But Levi was different, he didn’t know any better, he didn’t know the norms of the human world, hence why he sat there with an impressed look on his face as he studied Hange’s handiwork.
“Don’t worry I’ll show you again later,” she reassured the raven headed mer as she gestured for him to stand from the bed. “Let’s get a good look at you know.”
The brunette looked him up and down, left to right to make sure she didn’t miss anything while Levi stood awkwardly tugging at the neck of the sweater, it covered his gills uncomfortably and it was hot.
“Hm, we’ll this will work for now until we can get you something more comfortable and less warm, especially since it’s summertime, but hopefully nobody will question it- Oh wait your ears!”
She reached a hand over and gently brushed her fingertips against his pointed, web-like ears and Levi shuddered and slapped her hand away before covering his ear with the sleeve of his sweater with a glare.
“Sensitive, huh?” Hange asked him with a sincere expression and he nodded. “Ah, sorry.”
The brunette quickly walked over to her nightstand and rummaged through one of the dressers before pulling out a dark blue beanie and let out a small noise of success. She the walked back over to the small mermyd and carefully fitted it over his head snugly, making sure to cover his unusual ears in the process. Taking a step back to examine hime one last time, she cooed adoringly.
“Oh, you look so cute!” She squealed and Levi’s pale cheeks darkened with a shade of pink.
“Shut up shitty glasses I don-” Hange pulled him in front of a long mirror that hung behind her bedroom door and he frowned deeply. “Oh I look stupid, humans and their stupid ‘clothes’, how ridiculous.” The raven crossed his arms like a pouting child.
“Would you rather have yourself exposed to world? Our society has already deemed your species as dangerous and hostile, once they catch wind that they can somehow evolve to roam on land they will panic, lock you up and subject you to all kinds of unethical experimentation.”
The mer blinked and was silent for a few seconds before catching Hange’s hard gaze with his own conflicted one.
“Levi, it’s my job to make sure that none of that happens. What I- what we do, back where we took care of you, we make sure that all kinds of marine life, exotic, dangerous and all in between, are cared for and protected. You’re no different, i promised you before and I’m keeping it. I promise we’ll find out what’s happening to you as well.” Her voice became more tender towards the end and Levi had never felt so cared for before, it almost freaked him out.
He swallowed thickly before turning to look at Hange in the eyes, his own betraying the emotions inside him.
“I believe you.” He muttered and she smiled widely, light brown eyes shining softly behind her crystal lenses. The moment was ruined when the brunette ruffled his fringe affectionately. He waved her hand away and scowled before turning back to the mirror to fix it.
“Aliright lets go now, to restock the fridge!” Hange cheered and grabbed her wallet and keys from her work bag and gestured for Levi to follow her.
She ended up taking them to a nearby local superstore, after parking she skipped out of the car with newfound energy to open the door for Levi. The half man stepped out of the car with wary eyes as he examined the parking lot. Hange tugged him along with her by the sleeve of his sweater as she went over some rules.
“Stay close to me, if you need to use the restroom let me know and if you see anything that peaks your interest tell me before trying to take it with you haha.” She laughed when she saw him purse his lips and nod.
On their way towards the entrance of the store, Hange grabbed a shopping cart and told him to push it along side her. As they approached the entrance, the automatic doors slide open, effectively startling Levi which caused Hange to laugh loudly and drag the surprised mer through the entrance.
The raven’s eyes became comically wider when he took in the sight of the superstore. Everything was bright and there were so many people talking, walking around and shopping. His senses were on overload, multiple sights, smells and sounds were hitting him at once and it took him a moment to ground himself and focus on pushing the cart and staying by Hange’s side.
An hour and half full cart later, Hange was escorting Levi down the snacks isle when something caught his attention.
It was a bag of Golfish crackers.
He cocked his head at the packages design, its bold lettering and bright oranges, yellows and white coloring. But what most peaked his interest was the pictures of the smiling, fish shaped snacks, it was oddly cute to him.
“Mommy, can I have them pleeease?!”
The mermyd whipped his head to the left of him to see a child shove a package of Oreos up to him mom as he pleaded for her to take them. His mother sighed and nodded, gesturing for the child to place the cookies into their own cart as she went back to her list. Levi took the scene in before grabbing the golfish off the shelf and turning to search for his caretaker.
He found her near the kettle cooked chips with their shopping cart, the moment she spotted him she breathed a sigh of relief.
“Levi, I turn my back for one second and you run off. You can’t just-Oh?”
The brunette is cut off by her companion when he presented the bag of snacks to her with a determined expression. She glanced at the bag then at him before raising and eyebrow.
“Is that what you want?” Levi nodded.
“Oh..kay, we’ll it’s a good thing that Erwin gave me a budget to spend on you then haha. Go ahead and put it in the cart and let’s go get you some clothes.”
A tiny grin formed as he inwardly praised himself for his success before he placed the snacks into the cart and pushed it after the brunette.
They headed out of the snacks isle and towards the non food area of the superstore when a sudden familiar voice called out to them.
“Dr. Hange?”
Both her and Levi whirled around to see Eren, Armin and Mikasa standing there with wide eyes.
“Oh hey kids!” Hange greeted them with a wave, but they were all staring at the now bipedal mermyd next to her.
“Levi?!” Eren said with a befuddled look. “You’re..walking..”
“On two legs...” Armin continued.
“So Jean wasn’t lying.” Mikasa finished with an impressed expression.
Hange chuckled. “Nope it’s all true, Levi has seemed to morph, how and why it happened is still a mystery.”
The whole time they spoke, Levi was just leaning in the cart and glaring at the kids.
“So what’s going to happen to him now then?” Armin asked her curiously as he waved to Levi, who rolled his pale eyes in response.
“I promise I will explain everything to you and the others when I get back to work, but for now I would rather not talk about this in public. I don’t want to expose this to the media, that would only be nothing but problematic.” The woman explained calmly and the teens all nodded.
“Alright, is there anything we can do to help?” Eren piped up.
Hange smiles at the young boy’s dedication. “If there’s anything you can do I’ll let you guys know, perhaps you can help with his acclimation to human society?”
They all nodded and Eren turned to Levi with a grin.
“Don’t worry, we’ll help you with everything there is to know.”
Levi wrinkled his nose in disgust. “I’d rather stick my head in a sharks mouth.”
“I’m still working on his social skills.” Hange chuckled. “ I’ll see you kids later then!”
After bidding them a goodbye, the pair continued their way towards the men’s clothing section. Hange grabbed some underwear for him, boxers, she assumed it would be the most comfortable type for the touch sensitive mer. She also got some socks and basic white tee shirts, making sure she grabbed the the closest size estimate, If anything she could always exchange them. Next came the actual clothes, everything she grabbed for him she had him try on in the fitting rooms with her, which he wouldn’t have minded if the stalls weren’t so small, their close proximity made him hotter than the sweater he was wearing.
They ended up getting a couple of thin, long sleeved turtlenecked shirts in various colors, some regular shirts for when he isn’t out in the public, a couple of beanies including this one cute one that Hange loved, it had little bear ears on them. Levi was opposed but Hange got it anyway, she also bought him sandals and shoes that fit him nicely, some jeans, sweatpants, joggers and shorts.
Hange then moved on to get him some toiletries, that’s when Levi became a little hungry so she let him have his goldfish. The sight of him casually munching on the snack while trailing after the bespeckled woman was almost comical. They neared the section of household items, where Hange was looking for some pillows and bedsheets for the mer, she had explained to him that she’d be ordering him his own bed to put in the guest room she had in her house once she cleared it out. He had nodded as he listened along to what she was saying to him when he suddenly stopped. The woman noticed he wasn’t following her anymore and turned to see him standing a couple feet behind her, one arm holding his bag of goldfish crackers while the other hung limply at his side. She almost thought that something was wrong until she saw the awestruck look on his usually non-expressive fave.
“Hey, Levi don’t fall behind now....” the doctor’s mouth formed into a small ‘oh’ when she realized what Levi was intensely gazing at.
It was a pillow plushie of a cat, but it also had a Mermyd tail.
Levi had read about cats with Hange during their many reading sessions, he found them really cute and soft looking. But this plushie pillow held some sort of spell on him, the cat had a tail and he had never seen something so adorable in his life...well besides Hange’s eyes but he could dwell on them later. The mer quickly placed his snacks bag into their cart before dusting off his hands and grabbing the pillow, it was so soft and squishy that he almost sighed.
Hange found it hard to contain her fondness as she watch the display in front of her. Levi was acting extremely, adorably and innocently cute right now, childlike wonder reading across his pale face, it made her heart squeeze. She found it hard to say no when the ravenette looked to her for permission, she nodded with a smile and was rewarded with a sight she wished she could capture with her phone camera.
Levi hugged the plushie with a small smile that he tried to hide, as a light blush dusted over his cheeks.
Yup.
She could have died contentedly right there.
“Leeeeviii, you’re being unfairly cute you little guppy.” Hange cooed at him and he glared at her.
“Shut up.” He grumbled but still held on to his new pillow.
Hange giggled before gesturing for him to follow her.
“Let’s go now, it’s getting late.” Levi nodded and dutifully followed her like a puppy.
They paid, with the budget card Erwin gave her, and made their way out of the store and to her car where Levi helped out everything in the back while simultaneously never letting go of the cat pillow.
Once she closed the trunk she opened the passenger door for Levi so he could get in, before closing it and climbing into the drivers seat and starting the car.
“I just realized that we almost spent the entire budget that Erwin gave me for you, hehe. Hope he won’t be too angry when he finds out.”
What the two of them didn’t realize though, was the fact that during their whole shopping trip they were being followed by two inconspicuous men. They now were watching them intently from their own car as Hange pulled out of the parking lot.
The younger of the two pulled out his phone and dialed a number. After two rings the person in the other line answered.
“Hey boss.....yeah it’s him, no-yes sir.....he changed-yes-no I mean shifted.”
The older man next to him watched him from the corner of his eye.
