Author’s Note: I'm still figuring out Tumblr, so an updated masterlist will be coming soon. I hope you enjoy the second chapter! :)

You’re surprised by how forward Seonghwa is, but you also can’t deny the sexual tension you’ve been running from the moment you met him. The way he’s fiddling with your dress strap while he waits for your answer, all while staring into your eyes. You feel the electricity in the air, it scares you, but you’re too busy staring into his brown eyes.

“Okay,” You say shyly.

Seonghwa smiles with so much endearment, “Okay.” He waits a moment and then decides to ask, “Do you mind telling me about yourself? I want to know more about you.”

You nod, “I’m a manager for a tech company, I’ve spent years working to get where I am now. I’m 35, and well you’ve met my only sibling.” You both smile at the mention of Emma. You’re not very good at coming up with fun facts so you ask, “Is there anything specific you want to know?”

Seonghwa hesitates and then asks, “Are you single? You don’t have to answer that if it’s too personal.”

You smile, “It’s okay. I am single, I went through a pretty bad breakup a little over 3 months ago. Actually, this trip was my way of a fresh start. I was tired of being sad, and my ex started officially dating his mistress. I’m ready to move past that time of my life. We were together for 5 years, but I don’t miss him at all.” You giggle and look at Seonghwa, “Is that bad?”

He laughs, “Not at all! I’m sorry that it didn’t end well, that must’ve been really hard. But look at you! In Korea, riding with me to an after party. Would the past y/n believe it?”

You start laughing, “Absolutely not! I’ve been working 24/7 for the last 3 months, but I meant it when I said this trip is my fresh start. I’m not going back to how I was.”

Seonghwa grabs your hand, “I’m so proud of you, y/n. I know we just met, but you’re really inspiring. I was completely blown away from your generosity towards the orphanage in Jinju. Now hearing what the last few months have been like for you, I am captivated by you.”

Your eyes widen as the blush spreads across your cheeks, “I-I just really enjoy helping people financially. It’s one of the major perks of my job.”

Seonghwa smiles, gently puts his hand on your cheek, and leans in, “You didn’t say anything about the last part.”

His cologne fills the air you breathe. His touch is like fire to your cheek. When Seonghwa is this close, your thoughts are less reasonable and more on instinct. How are you supposed to be making good decisions while Seonghwa is holding you like this? You thought the sexual tension was bad before, well it’s a hundred times worse now. You’re scared to move, to blink. Fighting every ounce of your body to not just jump him right here right now. You notice his other hand that’s not on you, is shaking. The thread you had left of self control snapped, and you kissed him. 

It’s not just a kiss, it doesn’t feel like one you’ve had before. Seonghwa quickly reciprocates, fully making out now. The feeling you get is unlike one you’ve experienced. Most first kisses are a little awkward with silly mistakes. Not this one. It was like your mouths were made for each other and fit perfectly. You didn’t know anything besides the fact that you needed more. The kiss has turned frantic, you both need more of each other right now. It was like a dam breaking, there was no stopping this now. 

“Oh shit! We were wondering what was taking so long!” 

You find yourself straddling Seonghwa. His arms wrapped tightly around your waist, and your hands holding his face. The two of you look absolutely horrified, and you clumsily get back into your seat. Wooyoung wished so badly that he had a camera. 

Seonghwa clears his throat, “Sorry about that. Give us a second.” Seonghwa closes the car door. Wooyoung is laughing maniacally, most likely running to tell the rest of the members.  

You both sit quietly for a moment, fully back down to earth. Seonghwa’s kiss sent you to outer fucking space. 

You decide to break the silence, “I’m really sorry about that. I’m not sure what overcame me. I’m sorry if that made you un-”

Your sentence is cut off by him grabbing your chin, pulling you in for a sweet kiss. He pulled away, but is still close and is looking directly into your eyes. 

He smooths out your hair with his hands and says, “Don’t do that. Not with me.”

You open your mouth to ask what he means, but you can’t form the words. He doesn’t even have to tell you, you already know. This is the fastest and most connected you feel to a person in this moment, and you would be lying if you said it didn’t scare you. 

Seonghwa goes back to his side of the car, “You might want to fix that red lipstick.”

You finally notice how smudged Seonghwa’s face is with your lipstick. You’re embarrassed, but it’s also kinda hot. The two of you spend the next ten minutes removing every trace of your time together. 

He sighs, “Wooyoung has probably told everyone by now. I wouldn’t be surprised if your sister knows.”

You cover your face in an attempt to hide your blush, “Oh god. I’m never going to hear the end of this.” Seonghwa chuckles and gently pulls your hands from your face, “That makes two of us. We should probably head in, I’m sure everyone is waiting for us now.”

“Alright, let's get this over with then,” You say as you open your door.

Seonghwa looks you over once to make sure you didn’t miss anything. You notice a bit of red lipstick on his neck. Your face is turning red again, but you reach out and wipe the lipstick off. 

Seonghwa has a mischievous smile, “I left that there on purpose. I wanted them to see how you marked me.”

You lightly smack his arm and whine, “Stooooop. I’m going to be permanently red at this point.”

Seonghwa smiles and kisses your cheek, “I like it.”

The two of you walk into KQ together, trying to act as normal as possible. Seonghwa explains that the party is happening in their cafeteria. You see birthday decorations lining the walls, and hear music blaring from what you assume is the cafeteria. The two of you walk in, you spot your sister sitting at a table and head for her. 

“Hey guys!” You and Seonghwa greet everyone at the table. 

Hongjoong responds, “Ah there’s the birthday boy. We were wondering if you two were ever going to show up.” Everyone at the table is looking between you and Seonghwa as you sit next to your sister. Seonghwa takes the chair next to Hongjoong, which is a few people away from you.

Seonghwa comes up with an excuse, “Yeah sorry our driver took the wrong turn, so we were stuck in traffic.”

Emma stares directly at Seonghwa, “Is that so? How interesting, we heard a completely different story from Wooyoung. Something about Seonghwa being covered in y/n’s lipstick, and y/n sitting on your-”

You cover Emma’s mouth, “Anyway! We’re here now! Let’s drink and have some fun!”

Emma removes your hand from her, and she has the biggest smirk on her face. Before she can say anything, you shoot up from your chair.

“I-I’m going to get a drink!” You manage to say as you’re walking over to the makeshift bar. 

You miss the way that Seonghwa follows you with his eyes the entire time. Emma didn’t. The rest of the table is engrossed in their conversations, so Emma catches Seinghwa’s eye and motions for him to sit next to her.

He’s sweating bullets and sits down, “What’s up?”

Emma chuckles, “I’m just going to be honest. I thought maybe you and my sister would hookup, I was actually hoping you would. I’m confused though. I’ve seen the way you look at her, the way you just watched her walk over to the bar. Do you have feelings for her?”

Seonghwa is taken back by Emma’s boldness, “Uh-I mean I really enjoy being around her. I just want to get to know her more, since we only just met tonight.”

Emma doesn’t fully believe it but doesn’t push it, “Okay. I didn’t mean to come off so strong, I was just surprised since you just met. But just between the two of us, I’m rooting for you.”

Emma and Seonghwa smile at each other, and he goes back to his seat before you come back. You’re at the bar, and decide to take another shot before coming back with a mixed drink. As you walk back to the table, you notice a girl you haven’t met before. She sits in the open chair next to Seonghwa. Something inside of your stomach drops, you already have a feeling something bad is going to happen. You sit back in your chair, and already notice that this girl is doing everything she can to flirt with Seonghwa. 

The alcohol is pumping through you at this point. You’re fully tipsy, as you continue sipping on your drink. 

Emma grabs your hand, “Let’s dance!”

She pulls you along with Nari, and the three of you walk to the makeshift dance floor. 

“Who the fuck is that girl sitting with Seonghwa?” Emma asks Nari as soon as you all are far away enough. 

Nari looks and rolls her eyes, “It’s one of the manager’s nieces. She’s been trying to get with one of the members for years.”

You notice the way Seonghwa and this girl are laughing together. Talking as if they’ve known each other forever. It makes your stomach turn. You down the rest of your mixed drink, which you already know is a bad idea but you really don’t care.

Emma is visibly annoyed, “Okay but why is he being so friendly with her? Wasn’t he just making out with my sister?”

Nari sighs, “Well the boys have to be careful with her, they don’t want anyone getting in trouble. Seonghwa is probably just being friendly, I’m more worried about what she will do.”

Your eyes start to burn, you didn’t notice that tears were forming. Nari and Emma immediately notice, and pull you so you’re not facing him anymore.

Nari tries to comfort you, “I wouldn’t worry about it, y/n. People flirt with the members all the time and nothing ever happens. I think Seonghwa is just being nice.”

Emma rolls her eyes, “Well we also feel like being extra friendly. Nari, do you know any guys who would want to dance with us?”

Nari’s eyes light up, “Oh my god you’re diabolical. Let me go find some of the members from bbtrippin!”

All you know is the music is blaring, and you are dancing on someone. Nari brought a bunch of her work friends over to dance. The alcohol hit you hard, quickly becoming drunk and having zero care in the world. The staff was well prepared for this. The room is dark, but they brought in different portable strobe lights. 

The guy who is dancing with you is one of the cute dancers from bbtrippin. Everyone is just letting go and having fun, nothing serious. The music is mainly a mix of songs that are popular, not just ateez. But the next song that started was Bouncy, and everyone went crazy. Now everyone is singing and dancing even more. Someone bumps into you, and you see it’s Hongjoong. So then you and Hongjoong start singing and dancing together. The two of you are drunk, and just having the best time. Even in your drunken state, this still feels like the best night of your life. 

Someone turned on Cyberpunk, and the members couldn’t help but get into formation. Everyone was laughing their asses off, the members were all so drunk. Obviously they weren’t in their right mind enough to sing as well, but it was crazy to see how their bodies moved almost automatically. They were all giggling so much, it was so cute. At the end, we all clapped for them as they fell into the nearest seats panting. 

Everyone is laughing and finding an open seat. You unintentionally make eye contact with Seonghwa who is sitting across from you. It looked like he was about to say something to you, but was interrupted by the girl from earlier who came and sat in his lap. He looked surprised, but didn’t immediately push her off. It feels like someone dumped ice water over your head, you feel yourself starting to sober up almost immediately. You’re not sure why you feel a pit in your stomach, it’s not like you guys were dating. You watch Seonghwa flirt openly with her, whispering something in her ear. She giggles and you stand and start to walk away, before Hongjoong stops you.

He looks concerned, “What’s wrong?”

You put on your best show, hoping he doesn’t notice the tears brewing in your eyes, “Nothing! I just have to pee.”

Hongjoong reluctantly lets you leave. You take this as your chance to get the fuck out of here. It’s 1am, so you book a car to come pick you up. Thank god Emma downloaded the app for you at the hotel. At this point you’re nearly sprinting out of KQ, you know it’s only a matter of time until your sister realizes you left. Especially since you know you weren’t very convincing to Hongjoong. Once you finally find the right car, you’re on your way back to the hotel. You decide to text Emma, now that there’s no way for her to stop you.

Hey! I’m in a cab headed back to the hotel. Sorry, I wasn’t feeling well. Have fun and stay safe! Let me know if you need money for anything. 

Emma instantly starts calling you. You feel guilty, but you also can’t talk to her right now. What are you supposed to say? You made out with Seonghwa, and then you saw him flirting with another girl, and now you’re crying in a cab. You’re sure that Emma has already figured it out anyway. 

You finally make it back to the hotel. It feels like a major walk of shame going to your room after your night. You’re embarrassed at how much seeing Seonghwa with another girl impacted you. He’s single, he’s allowed to be with whoever he wants. So why are you unable to stop the tears from falling? Maybe, somewhere in your subconscious, you were hoping that Seonghwa felt the same as you. 

The shower is boiling hot, but it feels so good. At this point, you’re not as sad but angry. Why was Seonghwa being so lovey with you, and leading you on. He said all the right things, just to go and flirt with another girl. Well whatever. Fuck him. You’re in your comfy pajamas, and crawl into bed. You can’t believe everything that has happened, and it’s only your first night of your vacation. Well one thing’s for sure, you learned your lesson from Seonghwa. You text Emma that you made it, and are going to bed.

She responds almost immediately, “I’m going to kill him.”

You shake your head at your sister’s temper, “Please don’t. It’s really okay. We are both single, he can do whatever he wants. I guess I just misinterpreted.”

The tv is on, and you’re attempting to fall asleep. Your body is absolutely exhausted, but your mind is racing. You feel like an idiot. Why did Seonghwa tell you he was interested in you, if he was just going to immediately get with another girl. Maybe he just said those things to get you to kiss him. That thought was even more upsetting, you didn’t think he was like that.

You hear the door unlocking, and brace yourself for a lecture from your sister.

“Before you start asking me a million questions, can you at least bring me water from the fridge?” You ask your sister. 

Emma doesn’t respond, but you hear the fridge open. 

You turn and sit up, “I’m really sorry I left you. I just needed to get out of there-”

You stop talking at the sight of Seonghwa standing in your room, holding a water bottle for you. 

He sounds out of breath, “You didn’t misunderstand.”

You’re shocked that he’s actually in your room right now all you can manage to say is, “Seonghwa.” 

He starts towards you but stops himself, “Do you mind if I sit on your bed?”

You sit up and motion for him to come over. He sits right next to you, his feet still on the ground. You’re surprised by how frantic he looks. 

“I’m so sorry about earlier. I was jealous that you were dancing with other guys, so I was acting like an idiot. I’m sorry that hurt you, after everything you told me about your ex-” He can’t even finish the sentence, he just puts his head in his head. 

You touch his arm, “Hey it’s okay. I overreacted. We are both single, you’re allowed to do whatever you want.”

Seonghwa looks at you with wide eyes, “Don’t say that. I know you feel the same. When we kissed- I’ve never felt like that before.”

“S-stop. Please. I can’t do this.” You say with a lump in your throat.

Seonghwa looks like he’s trying not to cry, “What do you mean?”

You take a shaky breath, “I think the way I acted tonight is proof enough that I’m not ready for a relationship. The instant connection I feel with you is scary. When I saw you with that other girl…I didn’t respond how I should have.” You look in his eyes, “I’m so sorry, I just don’t think I’m ready yet.”

A tear falls from Seonghwa’s eyes, “I fucked up, I lost your trust. Please can I have a chance to rebuild your trust in me? I’ve never felt this way about someone, y/n.”

You think for a minute, and almost give in. Almost.

“You have nothing to apologize for. We just met. Besides, I live in America and you’re all the way over here. I don’t speak Korean, and you’re a celebrity.” You collect your thoughts for a moment and meet his watery eyes, “I just think there are a lot of things working against us. I’d rather things just end things now, if I feel this way after just one kiss…I can’t start something like that. I’m so sorry Seonghwa. I just think I’ll be the one getting my heart broken at the end of it.”

Seonghwa feels speechless, his vision is blurry from the tears falling from his face. He stands quickly, surprising you. He walks to the edge of the room. 

“Well I disagree, but I respect that you need more time.” He meets your eyes, “Just so you know, the things you brought up, none of them are deal breakers for me. I already speak English, and I would make regular visits with you mandatory for my contract. Just think about it, okay?”

You respond quietly, “Okay.”

Seonghwa immediately turns and walks out of your hotel room. You fall onto your bed, and the tears immediately stream down your face. 

Five minutes later, Emma enters your room. She walks to your bed, and sees you all curled up eyes red from crying. 

She sits with you, “What happened? I gave Seonghwa twenty minutes, but he only used ten. Then when he came down, it was obvious he had been crying. Now I find you crying. What’s going on, y/n? I thought the two of you would’ve made up.”

You shake your head, “I’m just not ready to put myself out there again. Things with Seonghwa…the way I feel about him, I just need more time. Can we talk more in the morning? I’m exhausted.”

Thankfully Emma doesn’t argue, and goes to shower before bed. You turn off your lamp, and promptly cry yourself to sleep. 

You wake up to the smell of food. You roll over and see Emma standing awkwardly as the hotel worker brings in your tray of food. They speak for a moment, and then the employee leaves. 

“What time is it?” You ask. Your voice raspy from the light before. The memories quickly come flooding back, and your head starts throbbing.

Emma laughs at your disheveled state, “It’s 6pm, we slept all day.”

You groan, “Oh my god my head is pounding.”

Emma brings you over an assortment of food, as well as medicine for your headache. 

You smile, “Wow thank you. You were so prepared!”

Emma shrugged, “It wasn’t me. Seonghwa had all of this sent over. He asked me to text him when we woke up, he knew you were going to be in bad shape.” 

You are pretty shocked to hear that after last night's fiasco, but are also grateful. You begin digging into your food, and chugging water.

“So I was thinking”, Emma starts, “What if you spent the next few days in Jinju? Nari told me that the people at the orphanage are already asking when you’re coming. It seems that they are eager to show you their hospitality since you gave such a large donation. You could spend a few days away from Seoul, clear your head, and then we could meet in Namhae since it’s not far from there.”

Y/n is surprised by Emma, “You aren’t coming with me?”

Emma responds, “Only if you feel comfortable taking the train there alone. A local guide will be picking you up from the station. I was planning to spend a few more days here with Nari. We could meet up in Namhae, and then continue our trip from there?”

Well you definitely don’t want to hold your sister back, but this is rather surprising. But maybe Emma is right, it would be nice to get away from the city for a few days. Even though you literally just got here. Park Seonghwa really did a number on you. 

You ask, “You said someone will be picking me up from the train station?”

Emma smiles, “They were so insistent and excited to have you, I couldn’t say no. But yes, a local guide will be picking you up so you don’t have to do any navigation. Your train leaves tomorrow Monday morning at 8, and then I’ll meet you in Jinju on Wednesday and we can travel to Namhae together. Does that sound okay?”

Honestly, you were a little confused as to why it felt like your sister was trying to get rid of you. But you were also too exhausted to question further. You can’t deny it though, you are pumped at the idea of exploring Jinu for the next few days. The people who work for the orphanage you donated to are extremely kind as well. 

You shrug, “Sure. You are acting suspicious by the way, but I’ll go along with it.”

Your sister giggles, “Nothing gets passed you does it? This will all make sense soon enough.”

Y/n ignores her sister’s very suspicious comment, honestly you’re too jetlagged to care. You scarf down your food, and go to the bathroom to take a quick shower. 

After your shower, you and Emma make a quick stop to the 7-eleven across the street from the hotel. The two of you spend a good thirty minutes just being excited, and looking at all the different food and beverage options. You both decide to sit inside and snack on some cup noodles. 

“So how’s your head?” Emma asks.

You respond, “After the food, medicine, and shower I’m doing much better. What about you?”

Emma gives a thumbs up, “I’m great! You forget, I’m much younger so I bounce back fast.”

You scoff, “I suppose that’s true.”

There’s an uncomfortable pause followed by silence as the sisters finish up their snacks. Emma wants to ask about Seonghwa, but she can feel that y/n isn’t wanting to talk about it. This whole situation has really shocked Emma. She wasn’t expecting you to be so into him. You’re normally pretty reserved, so when Wooyoung came in yelling that you and Seonghwa were making out in the car she didn’t believe it at first. But then she saw the two of you walk in together, and she instantly realized that Wooyoung wasn’t lying. The way you look at Seonghwa, she’s never seen you look at someone like that before. Based on what Nari was telling her, this also isn’t normal for Seonghwa. He was more into flings, and relationships that weren’t going anywhere. 

Emma also will never forget the look on Seonghwa’s face when she was screaming at him. He looked absolutely panicked when he realized you had left, and that his behavior was why. Emma was ready to grill him, but his response surprised her. Seonghwa was nearly in tears when he was begging Emma to let him apologize to you. The whole ride to the hotel, he was so upset with himself. The original plan that Emma and Nari had come up with, was just for the two of you to hook up with no strings attached. Emma knew you were in desperate need of a good fuck, and Nari said that Seonghwa would be the perfect match since he’s not really into relationships. Or so they thought. 

The rest of the night consisted of you packing up the few things you took out from your suitcase, and scrolling through your phone in bed. You fell asleep around 8:30pm (thank you, jetlag). You wore something cute but comfortable to the train station. Emma was nice enough to come with you, so at least you didn’t have to navigate yourself to the station. 

“Alright I think you’re all set! The train leaves in 15 minutes, so that’ll give you enough time to get situated,” Emma says.

You smile, “I’ll see you on Wednesday, and no more surprises after this okay? I think I’ve had enough for a lifetime since getting to Korea.”

Emma laughs, “Of course. Just remember, keep an open mind. I know how stubborn you are, but maybe just this once see where it goes before shutting it down completely.”

You look at your sister confused, “Okay now I’m even more suspicious. What the hell are you planning, Emma?”

Emma smiles and nods to the train, “You better go, I don’t want you to be late because you missed your train. I love you, and just try to relax and have fun! You deserve to be happy.”

She gives you a hug and gently nudges you to the train. You get on the train and find your seat. You get situated in your seat, and now your mind is racing. What could Emma have possibly planned for you?! 

The ride to Jinju was actually delightful. You loved being able to look outside the window, and see so many different parts of Korea. Your playlist and convenience store snacks also make the trip very enjoyable. You’re only a few minutes away from Jinju when you realize you didn’t ask where to meet your guide. 

The train has finally arrived in Jinju. You pack up your things, and go to grab your suitcase. It takes a few minutes, but you have made it off the train. The station is pretty packed, so you begin looking around and walking towards the exit.

“Y/n!”

Your head turns and your eyes widen, “Seonghwa?”

You jolt awake to the sound of your airplane pilot asking everyone to remain seated, because the plane will be landing soon. It takes you a few minutes to figure out where the fuck you are. You decided to take sleeping medicine since flying isn’t your favorite. The last thing you remember is the flight attendants making your bed. You are an established 35 year old, so the first class seats on a long ass flight were much needed.

Ten minutes later, you’re situated and looking out the window. You peek to the seat next to you, to see your younger sister somehow still asleep. It’s her 21st birthday, and you both are finally going on the trip you’ve been trying to make happen for years now. You gently wake her up so that the seat can be upright. She has the same look on her face that you did, so you leave her alone until she’s more awake.

So what exactly is this trip you’re on? Well it’s you and your sister’s dream trip to Korea. You’ve been promising your sister a trip together to Korea since she graduated high school, but could never get the timing right and here you are in 2031, finally making it happen. Over the years, you both have formed a love for Korea through k-pop, k-dramas, and food. It was exciting to be going to all these places you’ve been dreaming of seeing for years. You weren’t into k-pop as much anymore, but still had your favorites of course. You love to travel so knowing you’re about to land in Korea feels surreal.

“Oh my god, Y/n! I can’t believe we are about to land!” Your sister whispers excitedly.

You smile back at her, “Me either!”

You both watch the window in excitement during the landing process. You will be in Korea for at least the next two weeks. Your first stop and most likely home base is Seoul, but you both plan on going to as many different cities as you can.

A few hours later

Your sister pushed open the hotel room door, “Damn, Y/n! You rolled out the red carpet for me. This room is huge!”

You laugh and respond, “Well we’ve been trying to make this happen for so long, and we don’t get to travel together often so I wanted it to be special. My new promotion didn’t hurt either.”

You both laugh as you’re taking in the room, and the views from the room. You’ve spent the last decade climbing the corporate ladder, it all feels worth it in moments like this. Being able to have no budget on this trip and spoil your sister rotten, what’s better than that?

“Em, do you mind if I take the first shower?” You asked as you started gathering your shower things.

Emma responds, “You’re good! I need to rest and eat my snacks for a little bit!”

You smile and nod. The bathroom is honestly luxurious. You spent a few minutes just looking around. The shower is huge, and the water feels amazing. After taking an extra long and boiling hot shower, you’re at least feeling somewhat more human. Walking back into the room, you find your sister frantically speaking Korean on the phone with one of her friends. You just smile and lay in your bed, assuming it’s just something about her friends.

Emma is in the fall semester of her third year of college. She is also minoring in Korean, which is partially why we are here. We planned a few grad school visits, just to see if she is interested in them. But her being fluent in Korean is so helpful for this trip. You’ve always been the older sister, the second mom to Emma. Now that you’re in a new country where only Emma speaks the language fluently, it’ll be nice to take the back seat to some things.

Honestly this trip for you is a break from life altogether. You’ve been crushing it at work, as usual, but went through a pretty nasty breakup almost 3 months ago. It was definitely one of those moments where you felt as if you had to start all over again. You thought your ex of 5 years was going to be your husband. He got scared of how serious things were getting, and decided to cheat. So yeah. This trip is the start of your new life. The last 3 months have been filled with unimaginable grief and hurt, but you were done crying. Your ex making things official with his mistress was exactly what you needed to make this trip happen.

As you’re mindlessly scrolling on social media, you hear your sister end the call with her friend. She comes over and sits on the bed, and you can tell something is up just by the look on her face.

“What?” You ask in an exaggerated tone.

Emma puts on a smile and the most charm she can muster, “Thank you so much for bringing me on this trip, y/n! I love you so much and I’m so excited to start our adventures together.”

You’re completely confused now, “What the hell did you do, Em? I’m so excited for us too, but why are you acting suspicious as fuck right now?”

Emma responds, “Nothing! I’m just really excited for our adventure to get started, so I made plans for us tonight!”

Y/n’s mouth drops open, “Tonight?! EM! Are you crazy? We just had an almost 20 hour travel day! Look I know you’re young, but I can’t do the same things you can. I’m 35! I need my sleep.”

Emma looks dejected, “I’m sorry. I was just really excited, and my friend was able to get us tickets to this event tonight. It’s going to be really cool, lots of celebrities too. My friend works for the company, so it’s a really cool opportunity.”

Y/n grabs Emma’s hand, “I’m sorry if I came off aggressive, I was just surprised. You should totally go, Em! What a cool opportunity for you! I wonder if you could even network.” Y/n finished talking, but is now lost in thought trying to figure out how to give her sister tips on how to network.

Em squeezes your hand, “Hey. No work talk on this trip okay? I have barely seen you because of work the last 3 months. You haven’t been slick.” She pokes your side.

Y/n smiles, “Yeah because of the breakup, I kind of turned into a workaholic. But no more! I’m starting brand new on this trip. –About earlier, please go? Can you go with your friend? I would hate for you to miss something like this because I’m too tired.”

Emma responds as she’s standing up from your bed, “Oh I suppose I can just go with my friend. But you didn’t even let me tell you who’s at the party. Or I guess who the party is for.”

You quirk your eyebrow, “Who’s the party for?”

Emma smiles deviously, “Park Seonghwa.”

You immediately freeze. Surely Emma isn’t talking about the Seonghwa from ATEEZ. They’ve been doing things as a group here and there, mainly in Korea. After their military service, they’ve been slow to return to their previous schedule. Which you were happy with, they deserve a break. Coming to Korea, you hadn’t even thought of the chance of getting to go to one of their events. They have always been your ult group, but it’s definitely slowed down since their hiatus, and your life getting busy. Your ex hated ateez, but especially hated Seonghwa. Honestly, a huge red flag you simply ignored.

Y/n sighs, “Is this like a public event? I don’t want to be creepy and just show up to a closed event.”

Emma sits on the bed next to you, “So it’s Seonghwa’s birthday, but he wanted to make it a charity event. Hence the tickets. It’s actually a really big event, since it’s the first one KQ has put on in a while. There will be a handful of different organizations there, and all the proceeds from tonight will be split amongst the groups!”

You smile, “Wow. That doesn’t surprise me, they’ve always been generous.”

Emma responds, “There’s going to be a bunch of different fun activities. Lot’s of KQ staff, atiny’s, and just people who support Seonghwa and ateez. My friend who works there said the members would love it if fans came too.”

Y/n is in disbelief, “Your friend works for KQ? Damn Emma, that's crazy.”

Emma chuckles, “Minoring in the Korean language helps. I did a project on KQ last year, and my friend was just an intern at the time. Now she’s a full-time employee! I’m so excited to finally meet her in person. But I told her all about your situation, and how you’d be hesitant to come. She wanted me to tell you that Seonghwa is really excited at the thought of seeing international atiny again, since it’s been a few years since they’ve performed outside of Korea.”

Y/n thinks for a moment and sighs, “So I guess I’m going tonight?”

Emma squeals, “Yes!!! You won’t regret it! I really think tonight is going to be a lot of fun! And you’ll get to see ateez members again!”

You groan and pull the covers up, “So what do we wear? I’m barely functioning right now, so I’m going to need your help.”

Emma jumps right up, “I’m on it! You can just rest until it’s time to get ready.”

You hum in response and immediately fall asleep.

You awaken to Emma shaking you awake.

“Oh my god I started to think you were dead. Get up, we need to get you ready! We leave in an hour and a half.” Emma pulls on your arm and helps you stand. To be honest, the jet lag was hitting hard. Everything currently didn’t feel real. You just knew you needed to move.

Emma was able to get you into a chair in the bathroom. She starts brushing and straightening, as you try to come back to reality by going through social media. A coffee and thirty minutes later, you were in a much better place.

Emma sighs in relief, “There. All straight. I’ll get your dress and accessories all set up! Come out once you’re done with makeup.”

You grab her arm and smile, “Thank you. I literally couldn’t have done this without you. And oh my god!! You look so cute! I was so out of it, I’m so sorry I didn’t notice!”

Emma smiles at her sister and spins to show her the full outfit. After more compliments, Emma is begging you to start makeup because time is running short.”

You giggle and start going through your makeup bag. You weren’t sure what dress Emma picked out, so you just went with your normal makeup routine. Adding extra things here and there, since this is a big event.

Emma peeks her head in, “You look hot! My one request is that you have a red lip! It will be perfect with your dress.” She’s gone before you can respond.

You shrug and start digging in your bag for your red lipstick.

A few minutes later, you’re walking out to see what Emma picked out for you. The second you see the dress you protest.

“Isn’t this a charity event? I packed this dress in case you forced me to go clubbing.” Y/n crosses her arms.

Emma puts her hands up, “Hey, you can’t be mad at me for trying.”

You both are laughing as she gets out her option b dress. She pulls out a strappy a-line black dress. It was mid-length with a slit in the side, but it hugged every curve. Your cleavage is on full display.

Y/n looks at her sister horrified, “You don’t think this is too much” as she gestures to her chest.

Emma shakes her head, “You’ll definitely get some stares, but we’ll cover up on the train. I already asked my friend, and she said there’s no problem with showing some skin! They’ll know we’re foreigners anyway.”

You look in the mirror again. You can’t deny that you look hot, adding red lipstick was definitely the move. Emma and y/n move around the room gathering their purses and making sure they aren’t forgetting anything. One of your straps has already fallen twice, it’s beautiful but a pain in the ass. Your sister hands you your coverup for the train, and you both rush out the door.

As you’re walking you ask, “So where is this happening?”

Emma responds, “They rented out an event center like ten minutes away from here. Nari, my friend who works at KQ, already gave me directions so we’ll be good. She’s going to be watching for us as well!”

“Wow how generous of her. Are you two pretty close?” Y/n asks.

Your sister smiles, “Yeah we’ve been online friends for almost three years now! I can’t wait to finally meet her.”

Y/n smiles back at her sister, and the two of you walk to the train in comfortable silence. You both are admiring all of the new around you. Once you’re seated on the train, the anxiety starts building. The thought of seeing ateez again after being a fan for so many years. The last time you saw them was the tour before they enlisted, which was maybe around four years ago. The nerves are settling in. Before a few hours ago, you had no idea that you would even have the opportunity to see ateez. You are laughing at yourself in your head, feeling like a young fangirl again. You push the nerves down, tonight was all about having fun with your sister and admiring ateez from a distance.

Emma pulls you out of your thoughts, “So I guess I should mention that there’s going to be a ton of cameras outside the event.”

You raise your eyebrow, “Cameras? Well I guess that makes sense. Maybe there will be a way we can go around them?”

Emma smirks, “I wouldn’t count on it. Ours is the next stop.”

You look up and see the next stop is Gangnam. You’re pretty sure that’s the wealthy area of Seoul, makes sense. You can’t help but notice your heart picking up its pace when it’s time to get off the train.

“Are you sure this dress is okay? And that it’s okay for us to be at this event?” Y/n asks Emma.

Emma tries to comfort her sister, “Of course, y/n. It’s a charity event, so anyone with money is welcome. If it makes you feel better, you could always make a donation.”

Y/n breathes and smiles, “Yeah you’re right. I think that would make me feel a lot better. We just aren’t celebrities, so I’m worried about the cameras. Or people questioning why we are there.”

Emma slows to a stop and pulls y/n to the side, “You’ve got to trust me on this okay? My friend works for the company, we are technically her guests. You’re hot and have money, you have no reason to be worried. There’s going to be different activities to raise money, and lots of alcohol. Let’s just have fun tonight, okay?”

You smile at your sister, “You really are all grown up. You’re right, I’m sorry I’m just jet-lagged and nervous.”

You both laugh as you continue walking to the venue. The closer you get, you start to see a lot of security.

“Let me call Nari and tell her we’re about to come in!”, Emma says as she pulls out her phone.

From the distance you can see the venue, people dressed to the nines entering but not before going through a tunnel of photographers. You can also hear MATZ playing inside, trying not to freak out, you decide to let the music give you courage.

Emma grabs your arm, “Okay she’s inside waiting! Let’s go.”

Emma handles security and shows your tickets. They wave you through and you are met with paparazzi everywhere. You try to keep a smile on your face, while you and Emma rush through the cameras. Once inside you both can’t help but laugh. Your laughter is cut off when you look around and see how beautiful the venue is. You are relieved to see that you are in fact not overdressed.

“EMMA!” You hear someone yell. You see a girl run over and nearly tackle your sister with a hug. A smile appears on y/n’s face when she sees her sister finally getting to meet her friend. They spend a few moments laughing and hugging.

“Nari! This is my sister y/n!” Emma brings her over to you.

You take Nari’s hand, “It’s so nice to meet you! Thank you for inviting us tonight! This place is beautiful.”

Nari smiles at you, “I’m so happy you came! I know you both are fighting jet-lag, but I promise tonight will be worth it.”

Emma responds, “Here give me your coverup, y/n! I can give it to the person checking items.”

You’re hesitant, but slowly take your coverup off.

“You’re sure this isn’t too much?” Y/n asks.

Nari reassures you, “Not at all! You look hot! I know the members will appreciate that dress”

Your eyes nearly bulge out of your head, “Ah well I think you are just being nice! Besides, I probably won’t be that close to them.”

Emma returns and Nari asks her, “You didn’t tell her?”

You’re immediately on edge, “Tell me what?”

Emma sheepishly smiles, “Well I didn’t think you would come if I told you.”

Nari rolls her eyes at Emma and explains, “Our seats are right by them. I work for KQ, but over the years I’ve become friends with the members! They’re really excited to meet my American friends. Actually they’re the reason I had two extra tickets. Normally staff only get one, but they knew my situation and insisted on giving me an extra one.”

It takes all of your strength to not run out of the building, or fall to the ground. Yes, you’re an atiny and have been for years. But meeting the members was never on your list! You can be very shy, especially when you’re nervous.

“I wish weed was legal here,” You whisper to the girls.

They both laugh and Nari suggests, “How about we get a drink first? Then we will have to find our seats! But I promise, they’re excited to meet you! I told them you’ve been a fan since the beginning.”

The three of you walk to find a server that has glasses of champagne. The information Nari just told you is making your legs a little wobbly. You’re definitely going to get Emma for this. You grab a glass, chug it, and put it back on the tray.

Grabbing another one, “Okay, ready as I’ll ever be.”

Nari giggles, “I promise you don’t have to be nervous.”

You nod your head, as if that’s going to happen. Nari leads you to your table. The table is near the stage, you weren’t expecting to be this close. You are going to have a nice chat with Emma after this for leaving out so many important details. Once you get seated, you start trying to secretly do some breath work. Thankfully you’ve been meditating for years, so it doesn’t take long to get your heart rate back down. Putting on your professional face, since that’s the only way you’re going to get through this without throwing up. Just in time too, you hear a familiar voice.

“Nari!” You look over to see Hongjoong coming to say hi. He looks incredibly beautiful, it’s hard to not just stare at him.

They speak for a few moments in Korean. Emma also joined in and introduced herself in Korean.

“And is this your sister?” Well there’s no turning back now.

You smile, “Hi! Yeah I’m y/n, Emma’s older sister. It’s so nice to meet you, Hongjoong!”

He sits in the empty seat next to you, “Nari tells me you’re an atiny?”

“Yeah! I started listening to ateez in 2019, and was lucky enough to go to a few shows when you came to America over the years”, Y/n says with a light blush.

Hongjoong’s eyes lit up, “Ah really? Which city were you in?”

Y/n explains, “Well you never came to my state, but the closest show near me was always Chicago! I traveled there multiple times for your shows.”

He smiles, “Chicago is always so special to us. I’m glad to know you were there.”

You can’t help the tears that prick your eyes, “You’re so endearing, Hongjoong. I can feel your love for atiny just by looking at you. I’m glad to know you weren’t secretly a jerk.”

Hongjoong laughs as you see his eyes become misty, “I just understand all that goes into being a fan. The money spent, the time, I don’t take that lightly. It means a lot to me that people would disrupt their normal lives to see our music.”

You smile brightly, “Well you’re one of the most talented people I’ve ever seen! Every penny spent was well worth it.”

A staff member is waving for Hongjoong.

“Can we take a quick picture?” Hongjoong asked.

You’re surprised, “Oh my god of course. I should definitely be the one asking you.”

Hongjoong laughs and you both stand up. Handing your phone to your sister, you don’t miss the shit eating grin she’s wearing. You can basically hear her telling you ‘I told you so’, but at this moment you really don’t care. Hongjoong places his hand around your waist, surprised but not mad about it, and he pulls you in close. You both smile brightly, and Nari says something that makes you all start laughing.

Hongjoong holds your hands, “Thank you for coming, y/n. I know you were really nervous, but we wanted you to come. I’ll see you later?”

You smile hoping you weren’t bright red, “Yeah of course. Thanks jjoong.”

His eyes light up at the nickname as he’s walking back towards the staff. You plop down in your seat and just stare in shock.

“I’m waiting for my thank you.” Emma says with a smirk.

You roll your eyes, the alcohol is starting to make you warm and fuzzy. Or maybe that was just from your conversation with Hongjoong.

Someone comes onto the stage, and starts the event. You have no idea what they’re saying because it’s all in Korean, but you don't mind.

You take this time to look around. Your table being in the front, but a little off to the side. You see that there’s one table to your left, and the one next to that is ateez’s table. You try to not just stare at them, but wow. The last time you saw them this close, was their final concert before their military service. Most of them look physically bigger, and a little older, but it’s still your ateez. You can’t help but smile at the thought. Your strap falls for the millionth time, interrupting your thoughts. You sigh and pull it back up.

A bunch of clapping causes you to look on stage. You see Seonghwa shaking the man’s hand and coming up to speak. You smile as you see him start speaking. You’re not sure what he’s saying, but he’s absolutely perfect. Your heart eyes showing from a mile away.

“Stop drooling,” Your sister whispers with a smile.

You shoo your sister so you can go back to staring lovingly at Seonghwa. He’s just so beautiful, how could you not?! You feel much more relaxed now thanks to the alcohol. As Seonghwa ends his speech, the waiters all come out with what you’re assuming is dinner. It smells delicious, and you begin eating without a second thought.

Nari asks you, “I’m glad to see you feel more comfortable! Are you having fun?”

Y/n smiles, “I am! Thank you again. So what else is going to happen? Emma clearly didn’t fill me in on anything.” You give your sister a dirty look.

Nari laughs, “Well right now the members are preparing for the short concert they’re putting on for us.” You look to where ateez was sitting, to see that none of them are there anymore. Nari continues, “After that, there will be different games to raise money for the organizations tonight. Oh and then we will head to KQ for the afterparty!”

Your eyes widen, “Afterparty? At KQ? Are you sure I’m allowed to come to that? I don’t want the members to be uncomfortable!”

Nari looks at Emma, “I see why you didn’t tell her.”

They both laugh and Nari continues, “You and Emma are already on the list. If that doesn’t make you feel better, then just know that you also have a personal invitation from Hongjoong.”

“You guys are trying to kill me.” Y/n says before taking a giant swig of her drink.

The tables have been cleared, and the lights go out indicating the beginning of the concert. It feels surreal when the lights come back on, and ateez is standing on the stage. Their aura fills the room, you can feel the energy levels rising. Since this is Korea, you know the expectations for concerts are much different here than in America. Especially since this is a charity concert. The music starts, and ateez begins performing. The fact that they’re performing Crazy Form right in front of you, and you have to just sit there is difficult. You love hyping them up.

You and Emma start dancing and singing along quietly in your seats. The other side of the table is filled with Nari’s work friends. The more you and Emma are enjoying yourselves, the more Nari and the other staff at the table join in. At this point your table is having the most fun, singing and dancing while sitting together. This entire time you want to pinch yourself. How is this real?

The next song they perform is Bouncy, you and your table getting more rowdy by the minute. Everyone feels the alcohol taking away their worries. Hongjoong walks over to your side of the stage, laughing at the sight of kq staff and new friends. He loves the energy, and encourages it. After a few more songs, and lot’s of giggling from your table, Hongjoong begins to speak before the next song.

“Thank you everyone for coming! It’s been such a special night celebrating Seonghwa turning 33. We only have a few more songs before all the games and fun begin. But I wanted to dedicate this next song to a special atiny from America. Her coming tonight was all by chance, and I think that just shows the deep connection that ateez and atiny will always have. We will always find a way to be together, even by accident.”

Your eyes are watery and you smile at Hongjoong. Emma hugs you from behind while sitting, knowing you’re probably trying not to cry. Dreamy Day starts playing, and you have to try even harder not to cry. The members are all making sure to come to your side of the stage and wave. None of this feels real, but your heart feels like it could explode with how happy you are. Your table starts waving their arms to the chorus, and you of course join in. Emma hasn't seen you smile this big in a really long time.

After the show, you just sit there for a minute sipping on water. Still trying to convince yourself that all of that just happened.

You feel Nari’s hand on your shoulder, “Alright let’s go get more drinks and see what games there are!”

Y/n smiles and walks with Nari and Emma. The three of you decide to take a shot at the bar together, before grabbing your mixed drinks. Walking into the other main room you smile. It’s decorated like a carnival, all the games you used to play when you were younger were there. There’s an atm, so you go pull out a good chunk of cash. You walk back to Emma and Nari and hand them both a stack of money.

“Go ahead! I’m going to check out the different organizations over there” You point to the booths on the other side of the room. “I want to make sure I get my donation in, before I get too tipsy.”

Emma asks, “Are you sure? You don’t want us to come with you?”

Y/n smiles, “I won’t be gone long, and then I’ll come find you!”

Emma nods her head, “Thank you for the spending money! Call me if you get lost.”

You laugh and walk towards the booths. Your strap falls…again. You pull it back up as you get to the first booth.

You smile and say, “Hello.”

The people look at you and then look at each other. One of them manages to say, “Sorry. No English.”

You internally slap your forehead. You’re in Korea, of course they don’t speak English. You look to where Emma was, and she’s gone.

Y/n apologizes in Korean to the people at the booth. She feels someone closely behind her, probably waiting their turn. So she goes to move out of the way.

“Wait.” You hear the person behind you say.

You turn and are shocked at what you see.

“Seonghwa.” The name came out of your mouth so naturally.

He laughs, “And you must be y/n? I was looking for you.”

You’re surprised by that, “You were looking for me?”

Seonghwa nods his head, “Yeah Hongjoong wouldn’t shut up about you. I wanted to meet you myself.”

You can’t help the blush that appears on your cheeks, “Can I ask you a favor?” You surprise yourself by your boldness.

“Anything.” Seonghwa smiles.

You look back to the booths, “Can you translate what these organizations do for me? I would ask Emma or Nari, but I already sent them off to play games. I was wanting to make a donation, but it’s hard when I don’t know what they do.”

You don’t notice, but Seonghwa can’t stop smiling at you, “Of course. I’d love to.”

It took about twenty minutes for Seonghwa to explain the different organizations. You decided on the orphanage that was from Seonghwa’s hometown. Thanking him profusely for translating. He’s surprised to see you walk up to the organization from his hometown, something in his chest begins to stir. He sees the people at the booth jump up when they see your donation amount. They begin bowing and shaking your hand. He can’t help but chuckle when he sees your surprised face. You kept telling them it wasn’t necessary to thank you, you were happy to help.

You walk back to him, face flushed. You were so embarrassed by their big reaction to your donation, you didn’t notice your strap fell…again.

Seonghwa gently pulled your strap back onto your shoulder. You look at him with wide eyes, heart pounding.

“What made you pick them?” He looks to the booth you just came from.

You smile, “Well it’s your birthday. I wanted to support a place from your hometown. Is that okay?”

Seonghwa responds, “Of course. You just surprised me.”

You say cheekily, “I’m full of surprises.”

You both laugh and your heart races when you see the way he looks at you.

“Well, I guess I should find Emma and Nari. Thanks again for helping me!” You say with a smile.

Seonghwa asks, “Can I walk with you?”

You look surprised, “Oh of course! You don’t need to get back to your party?”

He smiles, “Nah. I’m off duty now.”

The two of you begin walking to the carnival part of the party. You can’t help but look at all the games, wondering how they got everything in here.

“Wanna play?” Seonghwa asks, standing in front of the skee ball.

You respond, “Yeah! Let me go to the atm real quick.”

He stops you, “No I want to pay for you. Please? It is my birthday.”

You stand there conflicted, “Fine but only a few games! I’m perfectly capable of paying for my own games.”

Seonghwa smirks, “I’m fully aware. Let me take care of you tonight.”

You blush at his statement, but nod your head.

The two of you begin your skee ball game. It only takes a few rounds for your ultra competitive side to come out.

Seonghwa stands triumphantly, “Ha! That’s 5-1. I thought you said you were good at this game?”

You gasp at him, “I am!! It’s because you have longer arms, and the setup is a little different than what I’m used to!” You are very clearly pouting over losing.

Seonghwa can’t stop the laugh that explodes out of him. While you stand there pouting.

He looks behind you, “The air hockey just opened up, want to lose on that too?”

You give him a dirty look and walk to where the air hockey machine is.

“I’m actually really good at this, so you better watch out.” Y/n says with confidence.

Seonghwa chuckles, “That’s what you said at skee ball.”

You roll your eyes, “Let’s stop talking so I can stomp you. Then you’ll see.”

You both have spent the last ten minutes being ultra competitive with each other. The two of you are completely zoned in, and determined to win this game. The trash talk comes out so naturally anytime one of you scores, or someone misses. From the outside, it doesn’t look like two strangers who just met tonight.

“HA! Game point for me!!” You yell as you serve the puck.

Seonghwa says nothing, he’s too busy trying not to lose to you. He hits the puck back, but accidentally makes the puck fly up off board. It’s not the first time your finger has been smacked by the puck, but it always manages to hurt really fucking bad. You drop into a squat, holding your finger tightly.

“Ow! Fuck.” You yelp. You squeeze your eyes and just wait for the pain to subside.

Before you know it, you feel two hands on your elbows lifting you back up to stand. You look to see that it was Seonghwa, and he looks terrified.

“I’m so sorry! Is your finger okay? Can I look at it?” He asks with worry.

You smile, “Don’t worry, I’m fine! It hurt really bad when it happened, but the pain already went away.” Seonghwa doesn’t look convinced so you continue, “You’re telling me your fingers have never been hit while playing air hockey? Seriously, it happens all the time, I’m okay.”

Seonghwa lets out the breath he was holding, “You’re right. I’m sorry though that it happened. I didn’t like seeing you in pain, it really scared me.” He looks into your eyes, the concern for you still there. Seonghwa continues, “But if you promise you’re okay, we should find something else to play.” This is when he notices your strap fell in the commotion. He fixes it gently…again.

“Ah I see. You’re trying to get out of finishing the game so you can’t lose right?” You say cheekily.

Seonghwa smirks, “Nah, I just felt bad beating you after your finger got hurt.”

Your eyes widen as you argue that he was actually not going to beat you, and Seonghwa can’t help but burst into laughter. He loves teasing you.

-After beating Seonghwa in air hockey-

You have the biggest shit eating grin, “Hey better luck next time yeah?”

He shakes his head at you, “A sore loser and a sore winner? You continue to surprise me, y/n.”

You pout, “No I’m not! Maybe you’re just not as good as you thought?”

Seonghwa’s eyebrows raise as he holds in a laugh, “Is that so?”

Y/n smiles and checks her phone. Shit an hour has already gone by.

“I’m sorry, I should probably check on my sister.” You say, and are sad at the thought of having to say bye to Seonghwa.

Seonghwa responds, “You don’t need to apologize. Let me help you look.”

You spend the next five minutes looking around. The two of you gushing over how fun the event turned out, and how it was decorated perfectly.

“Y/n!” You turn your head to see Emma sitting with Nari and her friends.

You smile and walk over, “Hey! There you are. Are you two having fun?”

Now that you’re closer, you notice a boy sitting next to your sister. Even though your sister is very much an adult, you still feel fiercely protective of her.

Emma responds, “It’s been great! I see you found Seonghwa.”

You turn to formally introduce him, “Oh yeah he helped translate the charity organizations for me! We’ve been playing games for a while, but Seonghwa, this is my sister Emma! Emma, I’m sure you don’t need the introduction.”

They laugh and greet each other.

Emma says to Seonghwa, “You were always my bias! It’s so nice to meet you, you’re even more beautiful in person.”

Seonghwa smiles and puts his hand to his chest, “Thank you! It’s always nice to meet atiny.” He looks at you cheekily, “Was I your bias too?”

You’re surprised by the question at first. You’re not sure if it’s the alcohol, or just being in Seonghwa’s presence. The confidence is radiating inside you.

You tilt your head, “Why do you want to know?”

He turns to you and fixes your strap that had fallen…again, “Hm. Just curious.”

You pretend to think for a moment, “I always loved all eight of you, but no. I have..different tastes.” Your smile radiates throughout the room.

Seonghwa can’t help the smirk that appears, “So bratty.”

You don’t notice how Emma and Nari are nearly screaming because of the flirting and tension between you two. You haven’t even noticed that Hongjoong was sitting with your sister and her friends.

Hongjoong interrupts, “Damn Seonghwa, just take her home already.”

You both immediately put distance in between each other. You walk and take the empty seat next to the random guy sitting by your sister. The blush is still lingering on your cheeks. Did you really just do all of that right in front of your sister?! You need to get it together. Seonghwa takes the seat next to Hongjoong, at the other side of the table. It’s a big round table, so you can still see each other.

You try to change the conversation, “So Emma, want to introduce me to your friends?”

The people they were hanging out with are Nari’s friends who also work at KQ. You now know that only Nari, Hongjoong, Seonghwa, and one other speak english. You encourage them all to speak Korean comfortably, you didn’t mind at all.

They continue their conversations. A waiter comes by, and you gladly take a drink from the tray. You begin sipping it while looking around the room. Everyone seems to be having a really great time. You look across the table to Seonghwa, who’s already looking at you. Your heart starts pounding, and you try to be calm as you give him a small smile. You look away and take a big swig of your drink.

You check the time and see that it’s already 9:30pm. You already know you only have a few more hours until your body just completely shuts down from exhaustion. You decide to send a quick text to Emma, hoping she’ll let you skip the after party.

“Oh no you don’t!” Emma stops mid conversation with her friends. Everyone at the table now looks confused at her. She continues, “Y/n is trying to leave early! No way! You can sleep all day tomorrow, we’re not going back until the early morning!”

You look at her shocked, “Early morning?! Are you trying to kill me?!”

Emma isn’t having it, “I don’t want to hear it! We never get to do stuff like this together, when will we ever be in Korea like this together?”

Your head drops and you sigh in defeat, “Okay okay. I’m going to go find the bathroom, but I’ll be back.”

Emma nods and is back into her conversation, you stand and start walking away. Thankfully the bathroom isn’t far from where you’re sitting. After you wash your hands, you start fixing your hair and makeup. When you walk out, you see people going up the stairs. You look to where your sister is, still engrossed in her conversation. You let curiosity take you up the stairs. There’s more tables, and more conversations happening. You’re drawn to the two big doors that are open, leading to the balcony. You stand and hold the railing, your breath taken away by the night beauty of Korea.

“There you are.” A familiar voice from behind.

You smile and turn, “Here I am.”

Seonghwa walks and stands next to you, “I thought you might be trying to sneak and go back to your hotel.”

You giggle, “No way. Emma would kill me.”

Seonghwa smiles, “You’re a good big sister.”

You’re surprised by his words, “Oh- thank you. I definitely have room for improvement, but I love taking care of my family.”

Seonghwa can tell how sincere your words are, he feels how genuine you are. The two of you are unaware that you are both just standing there staring into each other’s eyes.

Seonghwa clears his throat, “I-I meant to come get you because they’re about to start the closing speeches.”

“Oh!” You turn and start walking with Seonghwa, “Thank you for coming to get me! I had no idea.”

He smiles and the two of you walk in comfortable silence back to the main room. He walks you to your table and you thank him again.

“It’s no problem, y/n.” He surprises you and fixes your strap…again. “Don’t run away tonight without saying goodbye. I want to make sure I get to talk to you again.”

You can’t help the blush that appears on your cheeks, “Okay.” You say, nothing more than a whisper.

Seonghwa smiles at you, and walks back to his table. You plop into your chair, in a daze. You look up to see that you missed the fact that Nari and Emma were already sitting and saw the whole thing.

You cover your face, “Don’t.”

Emma has a devious smile, “Oh I don’t know what you’re talking about y/n. I definitely haven’t noticed the palpable chemistry between you two, or the way you two look at each other, or the way he fixes your strap for you.”

“Stoooooop.” You whine, “It’s really nothing. Maybe just a little flirting? But he’s an idol, we can’t be anything more than friends.”

Nari asks, “Why not?”

You look confused, “What do you mean? It’s been awhile since I’ve actively been into k-pop, but I know how strict the dating rules are. Even if there aren’t rules though, the fans take dating pretty hard.”

Nari responds, “You can’t really listen to the people who get angry when an idol starts dating. They clearly have an unhealthy parasocial relationship. Besides, Korea has taken positive steps when it comes to idols dating in the past few years. Especially when the members came back from military service, I think most atiny just want them to be happy.”

You smile, “I’m glad things have gotten better, but I don’t think you guys should get your hopes up about Seonghwa and I. He’s amazing and we get along really well, but he can have anyone he wants. I’m not Korean, I don’t speak fluently like Emma. I wouldn’t be against learning, I just think there’s a lot of reasons he wouldn’t want to pursue a relationship with me. Besides, I’m two years older than him.”

Emma slumps back into her seat, “I knew you would argue against it.”

“Em-” The MC interrupts you, ending the conversation for now. Most of the time you have no idea what’s happening. You pick up a few familiar phrases here and there. At one point the whole room is instructed to sing happy birthday to Seonghwa. His smile took your breath away. Seeing the other members love on him and tease him, it was very endearing. The two of you make eye contact, and you give him a big smile.

To end the celebration, you recognize the people you donated to from Seonghwa’s hometown, standing on stage to close it out. At least that’s what you assume since you don’t understand Korean. Until you see them point to you and everyone turns to look at you. The room erupts in cheering, and you are sitting there horrified. You have no idea why all these random people are clapping for you.

Emma translates, “They’re celebrating the largest donation their organization has seen to date! Y/n, they’re thanking you!”

Emma grabs your arm and walks you onto the stage, internally freaking the fuck out.

“I’ll be your translator,” Emma whispers in your ear. She tells you that part of the contest was seeing who would donate the most. Since you committed to $10k usd a month for an entire year, that makes you the winner. You really wish you would’ve known that before.

The owners of the orphanage both hug you, and thank you profusely. You have Emma explain to them that you didn’t know about the competition, and that you just really loved what they were doing. Unfortunately for you, the crowd loved that even more.

The prize is a trip to Jinju to see the city, and to also tour the orphanage so you can see where your money is going. You feel really touched by them and can’t help the tears that prick your eyes. You thank them yourself in Korean, and hug them both once more. Once you all are off the stage, you are able to exchange contact information so you can figure out your trip.

While all of this is happening, you miss the way Seonghwa is looking at you. Like you personally hung the moon and stars.

Hongjoong elbows him, “Stop drooling.”

After saying bye to the owners, you shyly went back to your seat. You could feel all eyes on you, your strap decides to fall…again. God you couldn’t wait to rip this dress off. Once you sat, Nari grabbed your hand and squeezed it gently.

“I know you’re embarrassed, but you did a really good thing,” Nari says to you.

You smile, “Thank you. I love being able to help financially.” Your genuine aura is like a warm hug to Nari.

She whispers, “Your boyfriend didn’t take his eyes off of you once. He looked like he was ready to fall to his knees.”

You laughed at the boyfriend comment, but looked to where Seonghwa was sitting. He was already smiling at you, and gave you a thumbs up. You couldn't help but blush.

Hongjoong teases Seonghwa, “Did you really just give her a thumbs up?”

Seonghwa whines, “Stop, I panicked okay?!”

They both laugh together at Seonghwa’s unusual behavior.

Nari and Emma are figuring out who’s riding in the cars, and who’s taking the train.

“Damn it, we’re one person off. We could’ve all been in the SUVs, but we have one too many,” Emma says.

You take that as a sign, “That’s okay! I’ll just go back to the hotel, I’m really tired so I don’t mind at all. That way you all can ride together!”

Emma gives you a dirty look, while trying to figure out an alternative that doesn’t include you missing the after party.

“Oh Seonghwa!” Emma says.

You turn and Seonghwa comes up to your group.

“Are you all headed to the after party?” He asks the group, even though he is only looking at you.

Y/n responds, “Ah well we have one too many so I’m just going to head back to the hotel! That way everyone else can ride together.”

He fixes your strap…again and says, “Ride with me?”

Your eyes widen at the offer, “Oh I don’t want to inconvenience you, or get you in trouble.”

Seonghwa laughs, “I’m 33 years old, who am I going to be in trouble with? Besides, I really wanted you to come. It’s not an inconvenience.”

You think about it and ask, “But what if your fans see a random woman leaving with you? Wouldn’t that be a problem?”

He lifts your chin so you meet his eyes, and puts his hand back down, “Why would that be a problem?”

At this point your cheeks are red, “I-I just thought you had to be really careful who you’re seen with.”

Seonghwa smiles, “Nah, not anymore at least. Atiny knows we are grown men. Besides, I don’t think it would be that crazy if we were seen together. You made a really big donation to my hometown, articles are already being written. If anything, people will think we’ve become friends after your generous donation.”

You try to ignore the fact that articles were being written about your donation. You weren’t expecting all this attention. You decide to take a leap.

“Okay. I’ll ride with you,” You say to Seonghwa.

He smiles brightly, “Great.”

“Are you two done now? As much as I love the flirting going on, y/n is still my sister and it makes me want to barf,” Emma says with her hands on her hips.

You lightly smack her arm and whine, “Why do you have to make everything weird?!”

Emma laughs, “I’ll see you at the after party okay?” She looks at Seonghwa, “Look I know you’re my bias and everything, but y/n is my sister. You better make sure she gets there safely.”

You smile at your sister and Seonghwa places his hand on her shoulder, “You have my word. She’s safe with me.”

Emma nods and Nari is smirking at the two of you. They leave with the group, and a part of you is internally screaming. You look at Seonghwa to find he’s already looking at you. He nods his head to the direction you need to go, gently grabs your hand, and leads you through the crowd of people. After stopping multiple times for Seonghwa to say bye to people who attended, you finally make it to the back of the building.

You see the line of black SUVs just waiting for you. What you weren’t expecting were the lines of cameras that were also waiting for you.

Seonghwa says, “We just need to wait for my manager, and then we can head out.”

You smile and nod, your conversation interrupted.

“Well well well. What do we have here, Seonghwa?” Wooyoung says with a smirk.

Seonghwa rolls his eyes, “The staff SUVs were full.”

Wooyoung not fully convinced, “Ah. Got it. Well I’m Wooyoung! I’ve heard all about you tonight.”

You smile at him, “Hopefully nothing bad. I’m y/n, it’s great to meet you!”

“There you are! I was looking for you Woo- oh hey! You’re the girl Seonghwa won’t shut up about!” San says with a big smile.

You and Seonghwa look at each other and laugh awkwardly.

You save Seonghwa from having to respond, “Hi San! I’m y/n, it’s nice to meet you!”

After a few minutes, the topic of you and Seonghwa has finally died down. The boys talked about the night, and how happy they were with the turn out. Seonghwa gets the okay from his manager, and now you are about to go to the car.

Seonghwa looks at you, “I apologize for the cameras. Will you be okay?”

You smile, “Yeah! Don’t worry about me.”

Seonghwa, San, and Wooyoung go out first. Hoping the paparazzi focus their cameras mainly on them. You’re able to sneak behind them without it being too much of a spectacle. You wait by the cars for them to be done with the cameras. You weren’t sure which car to get in.

They’re walking away from the cameras, and Seonghwa waves you over to the right car. He opens the door for you, and you both get in. It’s just you, Seonghwa, and the driver.

“I hope that wasn’t too terrible,” He says.

You shake your head, “Not at all! It ended up being super easy.”

Seonghwa chuckles, “Good. I want you to be comfortable.”

You blush and respond, “I really am okay. You don’t have to worry. I actually feel bad, because you’re doing too much for me!”

Seonghwa looks into your eyes and asks, “Have I not been clear about my intentions?”

You nearly gulp at the question. There’s just no fucking way this is happening right now. As you are internally panicking, Seonghwa presses the partition button. Now it’s just you and him.

You ask quietly, “What do you mean?”

Seonghwa fixes your strap…again but this time his hand lingers, “I am very attracted to you, y/n. I haven’t been able to take my eyes off of you all night. I have this feeling, that maybe you feel the same way about me.” You are swimming in his big brown eyes, probably the most beautiful you’ve ever seen. He continues, “Can we see where the night goes, together?”

Synopsis: Living post grad can be tough, especially when most of your friends are just entering their senior year. Your best friend invites you to play a practice game, but there couldn't possibly be ulterior motives could there?

Pairing: Choi Jongho x Reader

Genre: non idol!au, soccer player!jongho, soccer player!reader, mainly fluff, suggestive

Wordcount: 2.6k

Note: This was originally a one-shot, but I may write more! Please let me know what you think :)

It’s a wild Friday night. Pajamas are on, you have your favorite comfort show on, and a bucket of ice cream all to yourself. You are casually scrolling through social media. A lot of your friends have moved back in for their final year of college. You graduated the year before them, which at the time you were thrilled to be done. Now seeing them all go back without you hurts. You were the captain of your soccer team, and seeing your teammates prepare for the indoor season without you is a little bit of a bummer. 

You were able to land a corporate job, which you are of course grateful for. Most days are spent alone considering you work from home. You can’t deny the depression that is starting to creep back in. Your phone dings and you smile at the photo that your best friend, Lauren, sends you. The photo shows a smiling Lauren with the rest of your team, and you can see part of the men’s team trying to get into their photo. You chuckle and heart the photo in imessage. You can’t deny the pain you feel knowing you won’t be there this season. 

Turning up your show to try to drown out the sadness seems like the best idea. Until your phone goes off again. 

“You better not be moping all alone right now. We miss you.”

Lauren always has a sense for whenever you’re feeling sad. Something you love and hate about her. Mostly love. 

Nah. I’m at a huge corporate rager. Drunk off my ass, might go home with someone.

Lauren replies almost immediately.

“Okay now I’m actually worried. Why don’t you play in our practice scrimmage tomorrow? The boys have an unfair advantage, so we need all the help we can get.”

You roll your eyes.

Don’t you think that would be a little pathetic? And what unfair advantage could they possibly have? You stomp them at every scrimmage.

As you wait for a response you think about joining your old team. I mean it is just a practice game, and it’s not like you have anything better to do. The exercise would be nice.

“Are you kidding? The team would be thrilled. We miss you all the time :(. The unfair advantage would be Marcus’ friend that is in town. They went to elementary school together when Marcus lived in Korea, and well he’s fucking incredible at soccer.”

You sigh and try not to think too much about your answer. Maybe just going with the flow will work out for me this one time.

Damn all you had to say was Marcus and I’m in. I can’t wait to see his face when we win. Just text me the details and I’ll be there.

Lauren sent you a voice memo of her and the rest of the girls screaming in excitement. You laugh and then start to get ready for bed. The scrimmage is at 9am so you need to make sure you get plenty of sleep. 

Tomorrow comes and before you know it, you’re at the fieldhouse. You’re not sure why you were so nervous because the girls give you an enormous warm welcome. Lauren forces you to start stretching and warming up early since it’s been a few months since you’ve played. As you and Lauren are warming up together, you notice she has the biggest smirk on her face.

“Why are you smiling like that?”, You ask.

Lauren giggles, “Don’t hate me. We obviously needed you to beat the boy’s team, but I also had a bit of a side quest.”

You narrow your eyes, “What are you up to?”

Lauren says, “Well Marcus’ friend is super hot and good at soccer. I thought maybe you guys could get to know each other.”

“This was a set up?!” You gasp.

Lauren hushes you, “No one else knows. Even if you don’t want him to be your boyfriend, it could be a fun hookup. Just trust me on this.”

You roll your eyes, “Whatever. He better not be ugly.”

Lauren laughs as the two of you continue to warm up. You can’t deny the butterflies you feel at the idea of this mystery man. Lauren has never been wrong before, so you’re just hoping you can muster up enough courage to be yourself. 

“Well well well. Look what the cat dragged in”

You immediately know who the voice belongs to. You turn and can’t help but smile.

“I’m not admitting that I missed you”, You say with your hands on your hips.

Marcus laughs and opens his arms. You both embrace until Marcus tries to squeeze the life out of you.

“Okay! Are you trying to squeeze me to death?!” You shout as you wiggle out of his embrace. 

Marcus smiles, “I missed you.”

Lauren interrupts, “Okay okay enough with the flirting, Marcus.”

Marcus recognizes someone behind you, “Over here, Jongho!”

You all turn to see the man that Marcus was calling over. Fuck Lauren was right, he’s gorgeous. He gives your group the cutest smile you’ve ever seen and jogs over to your group. 

Lauren whispers to you, “You’re drooling.”

You lightly smack Lauren’s arm and try not to keep staring at Jongho.

“Alright everyone! This is Jongho. We met when I lived in Korea and he’s here to stomp your asses.” Marcus says as he wraps his arm around Jongho’s shoulder.

Lauren rolls her eyes and puts her arm around you, “Well, Jongho, this is y/n and she’s here to make sure that doesn’t happen.”

You are giggling at Lauren when you finally make eye contact with Jongho. He is smiling brightly at you. You’re unable to hide the slight blush that appears on your cheeks. A burst of confidence comes through you. 

“Yeah sorry you came all this way just to have your ass handed to you” You say with a smirk. 

The teams are laughing and you can’t bring yourself to look away from Jongho. The sexual tension is undeniable. He steps closer to you and you refuse to back down from eye contact, even when you have to look up to meet his eyeline.

Jongho looks down at you flirtatiously, “You’re a mouthy one aren’t you. I like that.”

He walks towards his side of the field, the rest of the boys follow after him. While you’re momentarily frozen in your spot. You can’t believe someone as beautiful as him said that to you. 

Lauren drags you back to your side of the field while you continually thank her for making you come. She continues to nod her head with that ‘I told you so’ look. You can’t even argue with her because she was oh so right.  

Your team is huddled and hyping each other up. You are all in agreement that you must win this scrimmage no matter what. Even though it’s only a practice game. You will be in your favorite position, center defender. Lauren let you know that Jongho is a forward, so you will definitely be seeing him. Your team all put your hands together.

Before you can break you tell them, “Not one of his balls will get past me.”

Your team cheers and breaks. As you walk to your position, you’re shaking yourself out. You can’t decide if it’s because it’s been awhile since you played or because you’re nervous as fuck. Either way, Jongho is not getting past you. 

For the first 10 minutes you wonder when you will get to play. Both teams are so hyped up that it was really just a battle of the forwards and midfielders for a while. This was good because you were able to watch Jongho in action and see how he plays. Unfortunately for you he is incredible, so this will definitely be a tough match. 

Jongho is the first one to slip through the midfielders and he is barreling right towards you with the ball. You take a deep breath and immediately go into action. He attempts to side step you, but you step directly in front of him and kick the ball between his legs. Jongho wasn’t prepared for you to be able to disable him so quickly that he didn’t have time to slow his body down. The force causes Jongho to fall, bringing you down with him. You immediately jump back up, only to sag in relief when you see Lauren is on the other side of the field with the ball.

“Are you okay?!” You see a frantic Jongho searching all over you to make sure he didn’t cause you harm.

You laugh, “I’m fine. Better luck next time.”

You can see that Jongho is taken aback by you. He wasn’t expecting you to be so incredibly good at defense, and also not afraid to put yourself directly in his path. He can’t help but admire you, but he will also not be misjudging you again. 

Before leaving, he can’t help but brush the few hairs that are in your face out of the way. He tucks them behind your ear, and then runs off to the other side of the field. Leaving you there speechless, and furiously blushing. 

As the game continues, the girls are not backing down. The score is 1-0, with Lauren being able to score because you got the ball from Jongho. You had a few more run-ins with different people on the other team, but none of them were able to get past you. With only a minute left, you can feel a flip of the switch for everyone on the field. The girls, desperate to defend and keep their advantage. The boys, desperate for one goal.

You can feel all the attention is on you. You are the reason they can’t score. You continue your breathing techniques as Jongho makes a beeline for the goal. Needing to get past you, he has three different guys running with him. As they go down the field they’re passing it to one another, in an attempt to confuse you. The three of them are now running side by side and passing it between each other. 

They reach you and the fight begins. You get the ball from one of the guys and attempt to kick it, but Jongho blocks you. You are trying to get the ball back when he passes it to another teammate that you didn’t see. He was further away so you start sprinting right at him, but right before you get to him he kicks it far. You hold your breath while watching the ball soar right to Jongho. Who happened to be right by the goal box. 

You immediately take off towards him, your other defender doing her best. He’s able to fake her out and make it past her, as she falls to the ground. Jongho is lining up his shot, and you know the only way to stop him is to slide to the ball. He doesn’t see you coming up behind him, and right as he’s about to kick the ball his feet are taken out under him. Since he was so close to the ball, you had to risk a slide tackle. The ball went right to your goalie as you planned and the buzzer went off. 

You are laying on your side breathing heavily as you hear the rest of your teammates screaming in victory. You turn over and see Jongho laying right behind you with his hands on his head in defeat. 

You sit up, “Are you okay?” 

Jongho looks at you and smiles, “You really weren’t kidding. I thoroughly just got my ass handed to me.”

Jongho sits up as you two begin to laugh. Even after the intense game and you’re not sure if you’ll be able to move later, the chemistry is undeniable. 

Jongho picks up one of your hands, “Would you let me take you on a date? You are the most beautiful person I’ve ever seen.”

You blush and begin to laugh, “Even after I slide tackled you?”

Jongho smiles, “Yeah. I’ve met my match, and now I don’t think I’ll ever be able to stop thinking about you.”

It’s your turn to fix his hair. 

“Let’s get you checked out by the trainer first, and then we can see about that date.”

Chapter 14 - Empty Feelings

The wind is whipping through your hair as you clutch Eren tightly. The city feels so different racing through the streets on a motorcycle at night. The evening chill is helping you sober up. You pull into the parking garage of Eren’s apartment. After parking, Eren hops off his bike and offers you a hand. You grab his hand and he helps you off the bike.

Eren chuckles, “Well, we made it. Do you want to come up?”

You smile and say, “Sure.”

Eren smiles back at you and motions for you to follow him. You both walk into the building and make your way to the elevator.

Eren turns to you, “Are you still drunk? You seem like you’ve sobered up quite a bit.”

You giggle, “Yeah between the adrenaline of being chased and then the cold air, I’m pretty much sober now.”

Eren gently pushes some of your hair behind your ear, “Good.”

You blush and the elevator dings. Eren leads the way to his apartment. Inside it’s mostly tidy, a few things misplaced here and there.

“I share this place with my brother, but he’s out of town for the weekend”, Eren says.

“Oh nice!”, You respond.

There’s a few minutes of awkward silence, neither of you knew what to do. Eren pushed back a strand of his hair, clearly nervous. He walks over to you and grabs your hand.

Eren looks you in the eyes, “Let me know if you want me to stop, yeah?”

Your stomach drops and you begin to blush. Your heart is racing with anticipation.

“Okay”, You smile shyly.

Eren leans closer, “That smile of yours is going to get me into trouble.”

He kisses you gently, putting both hands around your face. You put your arms on his hips and pull him closer. He pushes you against the wall as you both deepen the kiss. Just as you are ready for more, Eren pulls away.

“Let’s go to my room”, He says.

You nod and follow him to his room. As soon as you shut the door he is back on you. This time he picks you up while kissing you, and walks over to his bed. He flops you down and you both giggle.

Eren slightly blushes as he looks at you, “You look good on my bed.”

You laugh and playfully hit his arm, “What a cheesy pickup line.”

He smiles as he crawls to hover over you, “But I got to see your smile again.”

All of Eren’s sweet words were making your heart flutter. You wrap your hand around the back of his neck and pull him down to you. The two of you begin making out, your hand slowly traveling down.

You could easily feel the bulge through his pants. You unbutton and unzip his pants. You begin to rub his bulge while his underwear is still covering it. Eren starts to moan and you gently push him off you, so he can lay on his back. Eren kicks off his pants and you begin teasing him by rubbing his cock over his underwear.

Eren whines, “Please, Y/n. I want you so bad.”

At this point you were so wet it was laughable, but you want to please him first. He’s been so cute tonight, you couldn’t wait to unravel him. You finally pull down his underwear, and begin stroking his dick.

“Oh fuck. Oh shit, it’s been so long. I don’t know how long I can go”, Eren looks concerned.

You smile and place a kiss on his thigh, “It’s okay, Eren. I just want to make you feel good.”

Eren whimpers and places a hand in your hair. You begin stroking him again and he grips your hair. You lay on your stomach in between his legs and start licking circles around his tip. Eren starts moaning and throws his head back. You take a deep breath and begin slowly taking his cock in your mouth. Once you become adjusted, you start moving up and down faster. You can tell Eren is on the brink by the way he is moaning.

“Y/n. I’m going to cum”, Eren whispers.

You moan on his dick and that puts him over the edge. He shoots off into your mouth and it takes everything in you to swallow it. You slowly pump his dick while he rides out his orgasm.

You lay beside him, “How are you feeling?”

He tiredly looks at you, “That was amazing, Y/n. It’s been so long since someone has done that for me, I’m sorry I didn’t last very long”, Eren chuckles, “I’m exhausted. I feel like I just ran a marathon.”

You smile, “Let’s go to bed then. Maybe watch some Zootopia before we fall asleep?”

Eren looks serious, “Wait are you sure? I wanted to make you feel good too.”

“It’s okay, Eren. You look really tired, and I’m honestly exhausted after tonight”, You lie.

Eren looks at you, “Well okay. You promise this is okay? I don’t want you to feel like I used you.”

You respond, “I promise! I know you would never use me like that. Anyway, I wanted to do it.”

You reassure Eren with a smile and he relaxes. He grabs his remote and turns on the movie.

“Do you have a tshirt I could wear?”, You ask.

Eren jumps up, “Oh of course! I’m sorry I didn’t think to grab you one.”

Eren really is a sweet guy. You can’t lie to yourself, you are disappointed nothing more happened tonight. But maybe it’s a good thing.

He hands you the tshirt and you walk to his bathroom. You get unready as fast as you can, and head back to his bed.

After turning off the light, he turns to spoon you. You curl up into his arms, and within minutes you can tell that he’s asleep. Honestly, your mind is racing.

Being with Eren feels so nice and safe, but you are starting to wonder if Eren is too sweet for you. From his exterior, he seems like a completely different guy. Normally you would think that you hit the jackpot, but something is keeping you from feeling that way. You can’t help but wonder if you could ever be romantically interested in Eren. Making out with him was fun, but you’re not sure if you could see yourself actually dating him.

You begin to feel extremely guilty. You shouldn’t have let this happen, what if you’re leading him on. He’s such a nice guy, and you would never want to hurt him. As your mind is racing, you don’t notice your eyes begin to shut.

--

You awaken to the smell of coffee and the feeling of sunshine on your face. You roll over and see Eren getting dressed.

He looks at you and smiles, “Good morning sleepy head. You can hangout if you want, I just have to leave soon to meet up with some work friends.”

You sit up quickly, “Oh my god I’m so sorry. You should’ve woken me!”

He laughs, “You looked so peaceful, I didn’t want to disturb you.”

You check the time and see that it’s 10:30.

“Shit. It’s late, I’m sorry”, You say as you grab your clothes.

“It really is okay, Y/n. Take your time”, Eren responds.

You change quickly in the bathroom and wash your face with water. You don’t look terrible, but you definitely don’t look good. You walk out and grab your bag and phone.

You say, “Hey I had fun last night. Thank you for taking care of me.”

Eren smiles, “And thank you for taking care of me as well.”

You both laugh as you walk to the door. You start to put on your shoes and Eren opens the door for you.

“Uh let me know if you ever want to hang out again”, Eren says nervously.

You know you should tell him that you think you want to just be friends, but you don’t want to rush that conversation. You want to be able to explain things to him.

You smile, “Will do.”

You walk out the door and to the elevator. You check your phone and see that you have a ton of unread texts.

“Shit”, You whisper.

Most of them were from your group chat with your friends. Your drunk friends just making sure you were okay and hyping you up for going home with someone. You quickly respond to them and walk out of the elevator. You pull up the Uber app to order a car, there was no way in hell you were calling your driver. Then your dad would know where you were last night.

“Hey”, Someone in the lobby says.

Your head whips around and your mouth drops open.

“How the hell did you find me?!”, You ask.

“You have your location services turned on with me, dumbass”, Levi responds curtly.

You slap your forehead and sigh. That’s why he laughed last night, there was no reason for you to run. That’s also how he knew which club you were at. You’re such an idiot.

“Come on, I can take you home”, He says and begins walking out.

You follow him, “How long have you been waiting for me?”

“Doesn’t matter”, Levi says.

Shit. He’s definitely been here since last night, he’s still wearing the same clothes. You begin to feel guilty. Levi gets into his car, and you hesitate for a moment. You’ve never ridden with him before. It’s a super nice car. You get in and lean your head on your hand.

“Well I hope you had the time of your life, my neck is so stiff from waiting for you”, Levi says clearly annoyed.

“I hate to break it to you, but it wasn’t that exciting”, You respond.

Levi asks, “Did you at least get laid?”

You scoff, “Not that it’s any of your business, but no. Eren was very tired after I suc-” You quickly stop talking, knowing that Eren was already on thin ice with Levi.

“You sucked him off and then he just went to bed? What a fucking pussy”, Levi says sharply.

“Levi! It’s not like that. He offered, but we were both really tired”, You defend Eren.

Levi responds, “He offered? I wouldn’t have given you a choice, you deserve to experience as much pleasure as he did.”

You sigh, “It’s really okay.”

You try to ignore the fact that he said what he would’ve done if he was Eren. If only Levi wasn’t so damn stubborn. You sneak a look at him, he’s got one hand on the steering wheel and is leaning his head on the other. He looks exhausted, but seeing him still makes your heart race. You quickly remind yourself that he would never be in a relationship with you. You can feel tears pricking the sides of your eyes, but you push them back. Levi pulls up to a red light, and you indulge in your fantasy for a few more moments.

You look at Levi and he looks back at you.

“I wish it would’ve been you last night. Having another man hold me just made me feel even more empty”, You say quietly.

Levi’s eyes widen and you look away, fighting back the tears that insist on falling. It doesn’t matter if Levi knows this or not, nothing will change. But at least you were honest, for your own sake.

Chapter 13 - Night Out

The plane ride home wasn’t terrible. You took a few sleeping pills before getting on, so once you got to your seat you passed out. You woke to Levi shaking your shoulder. You spent the car ride from the airport to your apartment extremely disoriented and half asleep. Once you are finally home you crawl into your warm bed and immediately fall into a deep sleep.

The sun is what finally brings you out of your deep slumber. You forgot to close your curtains the night before, so the sun is shining in your face. You groggily grab your phone and check the time. It’s almost 10am on Saturday. Damn you slept for a long time, but you definitely needed it.

You check your missed messages and see that your friends are planning to meet around 8:30 that evening at a popular bar near campus.

Campus. You let out a groan. You nearly forgot that you were still in college. That week off of homework and tests was amazing.

Your phone rings and you pick it up.

“Hello?”, You ask.

“Don’t tell me you only just woke up!”, Sasha shouts into the phone.

You smirk, “Yeah I was super tired after the week I had.”

Sasha replies, “I suppose I’ll allow it. Anyway, can Mikasa and I come over? We thought it would be fun to catch up and then get ready together!”

Your eyes brighten, “Yeah that would be great! I can order us some food too.”

Sasha squeals, “YAAAAAY!!!!! We’ll be over in an hour!”

You laugh and then hang up the phone. You schedule your food to be delivered in a few hours from now and you finally drag yourself out of bed. You’re starving so you walk to the kitchen and make yourself some breakfast. You’re sitting at the table when you notice Levi walking out of his room. He’s completely dressed for the day and looks like he’s been up for a while.

“Decide to finally get your ass out of bed?”, He says as he walks to the couch.

You roll your eyes but don’t respond to him. You continue eating your breakfast.

Levi glares at you, “Now you’re ignoring me? Damn you really are a child.”

Your head snaps in his direction and you look him in the eyes, “I’m not a fucking child.”

He snaps back, “Could’ve fooled me.”

The next few minutes you finish your breakfast in silence. Levi is annoying the shit out of you and you really need time away from him.

You stand up and take your dishes to the sink. You walk over to where Levi is reading a book and stand in front of him.

“Just so you know, I’m going to a party tonight. I’m going to have you switch places with my dad’s bodyguard until tomorrow”, You begin to walk away.

“Like hell you are. I’m not leaving your side”, Levi says.

You turn around clearly angry, “And why the fuck not?”

Levi responds, “I don’t trust anyone else to do my job.”

“My dad’s bodyguard is very capable and will take great care of me. Enjoy your boring evening with my dad”, You say curtly, thinking that is the end of your conversation.

Levi looks at you, “No. I refuse to go.”

You snap, “What the hell is wrong with you!? You don’t have a choice, you are not going with me tonight. As a matter of fact, how about you just take the damn night off. We both have had a very long week and I need at least an evening away from you.”

You stomp away and slam your door before Levi is able to argue with you. You immediately open your phone and call your dad.

Your dad answers, “Hello Y/n! How are you feeling after the week in California?”

You respond impatiently, “I’m fine, dad. I just really need a night away from Levi. He’s also exhausted after this last week, so I know he could use the  evening off.” You knew that was a lie.

Your dad responds with concern, “Oh I’m sorry to hear that. I will call Levi and let him know he is not to stay with you tonight. Are you planning to just stay home tonight?”

“Yeah I was just going to have the girls come over”, You feel bad lying. It wasn’t a complete lie though since they were coming over.

“Okay then there’s no need for you to have security tonight. I’ll even send a car over now to pick up Levi and take him to a hotel for the evening”, Your dad replied.

You breathe a sigh of relief, “Thank you, dad. I’m sorry for being snippy, I just really need some girl time tonight.”

Your dad smiles, “Of course, honey. I have some paperwork to attend to, but I hope you have a great night!”

The call ends and you feel relieved. You decide to take a quick shower to prepare for your evening. In the middle of your shower you can hear the front door slam. You smirk, knowing that Levi was forced to leave for the evening.

---

A few hours have passed since your shower. Sasha and Mikasa have been here for a while, and you all have been catching up and devouring the food you ordered.

You have an hour until you are meeting the guys so you decide to get ready. You’re looking through your closet, trying to find the right outfit. You pull out a simple dress, and Sasha gives you a dirty look.

“Oh hell no. We are all dressing slutty tonight”, Sasha says with her arms crossed.

You look at her confused, “What? Why?”

Sasha comes over and grabs your shoulders, “Oh come on, Y/n. I know you’ve been super bummed ever since you came home. Especially after filling us in about your wild threesome. Which was super hot by the way.” The three of you giggle. Sasha continues, “I think you need a night out where you look and feel sexy. And if you want, maybe you can get some dick tonight.”

You laugh, “Did you forget that I just had a threesome a few days ago? Besides, I don’t really want to hookup with a random person tonight.”

Sasha smiles like she has a secret, “Oh it won’t be a random person.”

You look at her with concern, “What did you plan?”

Sasha replies calmly, “Oh nothing big. I may have invited a certain someone from your business classes to party with us tonight.”

You gasp, “Eren!? Shit. I’m going to be honest, I kind of forgot about him.”

Sasha laughs, “That’s okay. I mean you only met him a few weeks ago. But I heard that he’s very excited to see you tonight.”

You blush, you can’t deny that a small part of you is also excited to see him.

Mikasa speaks up, “If Sasha had to pick out my outfit, she also has to pick out yours.”

You giggle, “Fine. Go ahead, Sasha.”

Before Sasha reveals what she picked out for you, she and Mikasa get dressed. When you see then your eyes widen.

“Damn you guys look amazing!”, You squeal. You quickly realize the theme and cringe at the thought of you wearing something similar.

They both have lingerie on the top with denim on the bottom. It’s sexy but tasteful, they totally pull it off. You on the other hand, don’t think this look will work for you. Sasha holds out one of your favorite lingerie pieces. It’s black and the boob area is completely covered, but the rest of the top is only covered by lace. So a lot of skin will be showing.

You sigh, “Do I have to wear this? I don’t think it’ll look very good.”

Sasha rolls her eyes, “I know you workout with Mikasa fairly regularly. I promise it’ll look good.”

You grab the outfit and get changed in the bathroom. You look in the mirror and a burst of confidence rushes through you. You h/c hair is straightened and you put on some deep red lipstick. You walk out and Sasha immediately starts howling.

“See! I told you! You look hot!”, Sasha yells.

Mikasa smiles, “Don’t worry, Y/n. You really do look amazing.”

You smile and say, “Okay okay! Let’s get going, I need a drink!”

Sasha drives you three because you can’t let your driver know you’re leaving for obvious reasons. You do feel bad for lying to your dad, but it was for the best. You and Levi needed a night away from each other.

The three of you walk up to the club, there’s a short line so you get in the back.

“The boys saved us a table on the second floor”, Sasha says.

You and Mikasa nod, for some reason you start to get butterflies. You haven’t seen Eren in a few weeks, but the last time you did you guys made out and then he snuggled with you all night.

You turn to your friends, “So are you two officially dating Connie and Jean yet?”

Sasha giggles, “Connie and I aren’t official yet, but I think that’s coming soon.”

You smile at Sasha and then look at Mikasa.

Mikasa becomes shy, “Honestly I don’t know if I want a relationship with Jean. He’s just been a fun fling.”

A huge smile is on your face, “I’m so happy for you! There’s no need for labels if you two are just having fun.”

The line is moving quickly, the bouncer takes one look at the three of you and lets you in for free.

Sasha whispers to you, “We still got it!”

The three of you are giggling as you walk in. The bar on the first floor seems pretty empty so you walk up and order your first round of shots. You all were feeling nervous, so shots would definitely help with that. After downing your first drink you order a vodka redbull that you can sip on. The three of you pick up your drinks and head to the stairs. The music was loud and the lights were dim. The alcohol was providing a small buzz that helps boost your confidence.

Sasha leads you to the corner of the large room where the guys are all sitting in a booth. They were all laughing about something, but the moment the three of you approach the booth they stop laughing. They are all gawking at you and your friends.

You cross your arms, “I missed you guys too.” You roll your eyes and the guys start saying their hellos and asking how you were.

The booth was a U shape, Eren was sitting in the middle and Jean and Connie were on the sides. Jean steps out momentarily so you can sit beside Eren. Once Jean sits back down he puts his arm around you.

“Hey let me know if you want to hang out with me instead of that blockhead tonight”, Jean says with a smirk.

You playfully push Jean off of you, “Shut up you pig.”

You both laugh and you ask the group, “Where’s Armin?”

Connie responds casually, “He wanted to skip tonight since we would all be coupled up.”

You try to hide your surprise, “Oh, right.”

You feel butterflies when you think of you and Eren being coupled up. This is ridiculous, you haven’t even spoken to him. You take a big swig of your drink and then turn to him.

“Did you miss me?”, You say with a smile.

He leans down to be eye level with you, “More than you know.”

Your heart starts racing. He has his hair up in a messy bun, a few pieces are down and framing his face. You forgot how piercing his green eyes were. You’re practically drooling over him.

You clear your throat, “Uh, so how was class while I was gone?”

Eren fills you in on what you missed from the last week. You begin to feel a lot more relaxed with him. You and Eren are clearly flirting and you are definitely enjoying it.

“Hey I really like your hair. It’s cute when it’s in a bun like that”, You say with a smile.

Eren looks mischievous, “Well I really like the top you’re wearing. You look sexy, Y/n.”

You can’t help but blush, “Thank you. I was really nervous about wearing it, but I’m glad you like it.” The two of you begin to scoot closer, Eren rests his hand on your thigh.

Sasha interrupts, “Uh, Y/n. Isn’t that Levi over there?”

Your heart stops and you whip your head to where she’s looking.

“Oh for fucks sake”, You say.

Wait. Who the hell is that? Levi has his arm resting on the chair beside him, sitting in the chair is that same red head he was flirting with last time. He pulls her close and whispers something in her ear. She’s blushing so you can only assume he’s said something sexual. Your blood begins to boil and you chug the rest of your drink. The bar on this floor was right behind their table.

“I’m going to go get another drink and see why the fuck he’s stalking me on his night off”, You say clearly annoyed.

Eren asks, “Do you want me to come with you?”

You smile, “No it’s okay. This shouldn’t take too long.”

Jean lets you out of the booth and you are feeling pretty buzzed at this point. You decide to sneak past their table and get some more liquid courage first. You walk up to the bar and take a shot of vodka before asking for another mixed drink. You discreetly check your phone camera and make sure your hair and makeup look perfect.

Levi and this mystery girl are sitting on the same side of the table. You walk with confidence and grab the empty chair across from Levi and sit down. The moment you do, both of them look at you.

“Why the fuck are you here?”, You ask Levi.

He smirks, “I can’t have a little fun on my night off?”

You roll your eyes, “Did you follow me?”

He pretends to act confused, “I don’t know what you’re talking about. This is a very popular club in the city.”

“Cut the bullshit, I know you followed me”, You say bluntly.

The girl interrupts your heated conversation, “I’m sorry, but who are you?”

You look at her, she actually seems sweet and looks genuinely confused by the situation.

You sigh, “I’m sorry, I should’ve introduced myself. I’m Y/n, Levi is my bodyguard and is supposed to have the night off. So imagine my surprise when I see that he followed me here.”

She looks surprised, “Oh I had no idea.” She looks at Levi, “Is that true? Did you really follow her?”

Levi looks annoyed, “Of course not, Petra. I frequent this club, it’s just a coincidence.”

You knew that was a lie. You stand and put your hands on the table and lean forward, now you’re closer to Levi. You’re feeling ballsy having your cleavage right in front of his face.

“I guess we’ll find out the truth once I leave this place”, You say with confidence.

Levi looks caught off guard with you being so close, “W-Well aren’t you just going home? That’s where your father thinks you are anyway.”

You look at him and giggle, “See you later, Levi.” You look at Petra, “It was nice meeting you.” You push off the table and walk away, unable to wipe off the smirk on your face. You know that you’re driving Levi crazy and you have to admit, you fucking love it.

Once you get back to the table it’s only Eren. He points to the dance floor, and you spot the rest of your friends dancing. You motion for Eren to follow you and you both go over to where your friends are. You chug the rest of your drink and now you know that you’re drunk. A smile appears on your face.

Sasha shouts, “Oh no!! Drunk Y/n has arrived! If you don’t want grinded on you better run now!”

You’re known for becoming very touchy with everyone when you’re drunk. Your friend group is laughing, and you spot your first victim. You walk to Mikasa and you grab her hand. You dip in front of her and start shaking your ass on her. You and Mikasa laugh while you dance together. A few minutes later you walk over to Jean.

He smirks, “You sure you can handle this?”

You roll your eyes and start dancing with Jean. You look to see Sasha and Connie making out instead of dancing. Gross. Then you see Mikasa and Eren dancing together, it’s only friendly of course but you can’t help but think they look good together.

Jean whines, “I don’t like the way Mikasa is looking at Eren.”

You complain, “Ugh you’re such a buzzkill. I’m trying to dance.”

Jean surprises you and grabs your hips and pulls you back to him. You both spend the next few minutes dancing and grinding on each other. You step on Jean’s foot by accident and you start laughing when he grabs it in pain.

“Jean! I’m sorry!”, You shout in between laughing.

You feel someone hold your hand. You turn to see Eren smiling at you.

“My turn yet?”, Eren asks.

You smile, “I was saving you for last.”

You aren’t sure if it’s the alcohol or the adrenaline, but you’re feeling extremely ballsy. You grab the collar of Eren’s shirt and bring him in for a kiss. You two are kissing in between dancing. Your body is starting to feel like it’s on fire. You need more.

Eren leans to your ear, “Wanna go back to my place?”

You shake your head yes, “Let me tell everyone else.”

You grab your friends, “Eren and I are leaving! Have fun, but not too much fun.” You wink and everyone laughs.

Eren grabs your hand and you walk to the stairs. You look back and see Levi with your friends, he looks frantic. They point to where you are across the room, he looks at you and starts walking quickly to where you are.

You yell to Eren, “Hurry we have to run! Levi is coming!”

Eren turns and sees Levi pushing through the crowd. You both start running down the stairs. Thank god for Eren or else you would’ve fallen down the stairs. You weren’t drunk anymore because of the dancing earlier, but you were definitely still buzzed.

Eren does a good job at finding openings through the hoards of people. You look back and see Levi barreling down the stairs.

“Go go go! He’s catching up!”, You shout.

You and Eren finally make it to the door and once you’re outside you cross the street. Eren jumps on the back of a motorcycle and turns it on. You stop right beside it, you’re surprised that this is his ride.

“Are you sure you’re okay to drive this?”, You ask.

He looks at you, “I had one beer when we first got here. I’m totally sober.”

You both hear the front entrance door slam open. You see Levi looking around and he spots you.

You squeal, “Fuck!” You jump on the back of Eren’s bike, “Hurry!”

Eren revs his engine and he pulls out of the parking spot. You look to your side and you see Levi running across the street. But it’s too late. You stick your tongue out and give Levi the middle finger. His reaction shocks you, Levi laughs.

Chapter 12 - Not My Day

Your alarm clock starts blaring and it scares the hell out of you. You quickly shut it off and turn over, checking the time on your phone. It’s 9am, today is the last day of the conference and you need to be there in an hour.

The memories of last night start running through your mind. You start to blush and wonder how you’ll be able to face Erwin and Levi today. It was only casual sex, you remind yourself.

You turn to see where Levi had slept for most of the night. You assume he snuck out before you woke up. You place your face in the pillow he laid on. Damn. It smells just like him.

You slowly sit up, and you have a headache from all the alcohol you drank last night. Thankfully the hangover isn’t too bad, but you definitely need some water. You look at your nightstand and your heart flutters. Levi had brought you a bottle of water and some advil. You chug the water and take the medicine, hopefully your headache will be gone soon.

You stand up and grab your outfit for the last day. Just a simple black pencil skirt and a white button up. You place your ear to the door, there’s no sounds coming from the living room so you bolt to the bathroom. You breathe a sigh of relief when you lock the door behind you and start the shower.

With the hot water running down your back, you start to feel alive again. And with that comes the twinge of pain that last night with Levi, will probably never happen again. You place your hands everywhere that he touched you last night, and relish in every moment.

God you wish you didn’t care. The truth is, one night stands were not your thing. You have had one previously, but it just left you feeling empty and worse. This facade that you’ve created of yourself, of being a badass woman who can sleep around and not give a shit, is crumbling.

You just desperately want someone to want you longer than an evening. Is your body really the only thing people are drawn to? You can start to feel the knot forming in your throat, your eyes are burning with tears trying to come out. You finally allow yourself to cry, keeping it as quiet as possible. You start to realize why last night is having such a heavy effect on you.

“God damn it I caught feelings”, You whisper through your tears.

You can’t deny it to yourself any longer. You have feelings for Levi, and he definitely doesn’t reciprocate those feelings.

You know that if you spoke to your father about this, he could easily have Levi replaced. But that won’t solve anything for you. These feelings are already here, never seeing him again would only hurt worse, right? At least this way you can still be in his presence, even if it’s not romantically.

You pull yourself together and finish your shower. You dress quickly and begin drying your hair. When the steam from the shower finally disappears, you see yourself in the mirror. Honestly, it hurts your heart.

After your hair is dry you listen again to see if you hear any movement in the living room. You don’t, so you sprint to your bedroom from the bathroom. You know you’re running low on time so you begin applying your makeup, making sure that you look your best.

You decide that it would be best to not bring up last night when you are around Levi and Erwin. You want to try and enjoy your last day in California before heading home.

You grab your phone and purse, you text your driver that you’re ready to be picked up. When you walk to your door, your heart starts racing because you know you’re about to see Levi. You try to shake it off, you need to act like last night didn’t affect you. You open your door and calmly walk to the kitchen. You grab a banana and as you start peeling it Levi walks around the corner.

“Hey we need to talk about last night”, He says and makes his way over to you.

Your stomach sinks because you know what’s coming. You make sure your voice is even and respond, “Okay. What about last night?”

Levi crosses his arms, “Listen, I don’t want you to take this the wrong way but it shouldn’t have happened. It was a mistake, I apologize.”

Well that was a huge punch to the gut. You try to hide your hurt.

“So was what happened in the bathroom at the ball a mistake too?”, You ask.

Levi pinches the bridge of his nose and sighs, “Yes. I’m your bodyguard, last night was totally inappropriate.”

You can’t help but think about when he held your hand in the car. Does he regret that as well? If he regrets it so much why were there multiple instances where he was showing me affection.

Levi asks, “What are you thinking?”

You can’t help but be pissed. How could he be so insensitive?

You respond, “I’m just thinking about how I should’ve just gone home with Erwin. A one night stand would’ve been much easier than hearing someone say how much they regret sleeping with you.”

You quickly put on your sunglasses to hide the tears welling in your eyes. You turn and walk out the front door.

Levi is right behind you, “Y/n! Wait! That’s not what I meant.”

Unfortunately for you, you are trapped with him in the elevator. You refuse to look at him as he stands beside you.

“I’m not saying that I regret it. I mean maybe I regret being unprofessional, but all I’m saying is that it was a mistake”, Levi says.

You give him a weak smile and ask, “Isn’t that basically the same thing?”

The elevator dings and you walk out. Levi is still going on and on about how it’s not the same thing, but you don’t listen to any of it. It’s all bullshit anyway.

Once you’re in the car, Levi finally shuts up. You look out the window and fight back the tears. You’re mad, but you’re not mad at Levi. God you wish you were mad at Levi, but no. You were mad at yourself. It’s not Levi’s fault, you knew exactly how this whole thing would go down and you still slept with him. A very stupid part of you hoped that maybe Levi would start to feel something more for you. And now he’s trying to be honest with you, and you don’t want to hear any of it.

When you arrive at the final day of the conference, most of the day feels like a blur. You’re stuck in lectures for most of the day. You’re bored out of your mind when they finally release you for the lunch break.

You sit down at a table and begin eating your lunch. You didn’t realize how hungry you were.

“Y/n!”, Erwin is smiling and walking towards you.

A blush creeps on your face and you wave to him.

Erwin sits down beside you and smiles, “So? What happened after I left!? Did you two finally sleep together?”

Your face fell, “Uh yeah. Yeah we slept together. But this morning Levi told me it was a mistake.” You blush and feel awkward, “Kind of humiliating if I’m being honest.”

Erwin looks at you concerned, “Oh god I’m so sorry, Y/n. I thought that maybe Levi would finally realize his feelings for you.” Erwin looks around, “Where is that asshole anyway?”

You shrug, “Dunno. He’s been giving me space.”

Erwin smiles softly, “If it helps, I enjoyed myself last night.”

You smile and look at him, “Really? You don’t regret it?”

He replies, “Not even a little bit. In fact, if you ever want to go again just let me know.”

You laugh and playfully nudge him, “Thank you, Erwin. That honestly made me feel a little better. And for what it’s worth, I had fun too.”

You had no romantic feelings for Erwin, but he was someone you quickly began to care for. You hope that your friendship continues once you both go back to Manhattan.

The closing ceremony was after lunch. You sat with Erwin for the rest of the day, you were honestly shocked at how normal you felt with him after last night.

You’re relieved when you’re leaving the conference, honestly you were excited to get back to the real world. It feels like you haven’t seen your friends in ages. Tomorrow is friday and you’ll get home in the evening, so maybe you can get together with your friends on saturday. You honestly just want to get plastered with your friends and forget about everything that just happened.

Once you’re in the car you pull out your phone. You open the group chat you have with your friend group.

“Hey bitches! Guess who’s coming home tomorrow hehehe. Anyone able to get drunk with me on saturday?”

You text the group and it only takes a few minutes for your phone to be blowing up from your friend’s responses. Everyone is down, and they’re figuring out which party we want to go to.

You lay your head against the car window and feel relief that you’re going home tomorrow. Saturday can’t get here fast enough.

Chapter 11 - One Hell of a Night

You gasp and choke on your spit at Erwin’s suggestion. Your face is completely red, and you are coughing as you try to get your breath back.

Levi pats your back, “Way to go, Erwin. You nearly killed her.”

Erwin chuckles, “I’m sorry, Y/n. Are you okay?”

You take a deep breath and attempt to smile, “Oh I’m fine. You just surprised me.”

Erwin asks, “So are you not interested? It’s okay if you’re not.”

You blurt, “No! I’m not saying that I’m not interested, I just wasn’t expecting you to say that.”

Erwin stands up and walks over to where you and Levi are sitting. He sits beside you, you are now in between the two men.

Erwin smirks, “So does that mean you are interested?”

You look down and whisper, “M-Maybe.”

Erwin places a hand on your chin, bringing your face back up to make eye contact.

“We don’t have to have sex. We can just mess around if that makes you uncomfortable”, Erwin says softly.

You gulp. Every part of you is screaming yes. This was honestly your dream scenario, but you didn’t want to seem too excited.”

“Y-Yeah. I’m okay with that”, You respond meekly.

Erwin smiles and looks at the person behind you, “Levi.”

Levi grabs the ends of your sweatshirt and pulls it up over your head. Erwin’s big hands wrap around the band of your shorts. You lift your butt so he can take them off. Now you’re in your bra and underwear.

Erwin starts undressing and you turn to Levi. You can see the faint blush on his cheeks as he looks at you. Since he was already in only his underwear, you can see the massive bulge forming. Erwin puts a hand on your thigh and you look back at him.

He asks, “Are you sure you’re okay with this?”

You nod, “Yeah sorry. I’m just really nervous.”

Erwin smiles fondly, “You don’t need to be nervous. Levi and I will take good care of you.”

This makes your stomach do flips, your heart pounding.

Erwin leans in and your lips meet. He is gently kissing you, while Levi leans in and starts kissing your neck. You are soaking wet at the thought of being in between these two beautiful men.

Levi kisses a sensitive spot on your neck and you let out a moan. Erwin becomes rougher and you two are making out. Levi unclasps your bra from behind and leaves kisses down your naked back.

“My turn”, Levi growls.

He puts an arm around your waist and pulls you both to the arm of the couch. This way he could lean back comfortably. He pulls you so your back is laying on his front, he turns your head to the side so you’re facing each other. He immediately puts his tongue in your mouth, and his kisses leave you dizzy with pleasure.

Both you and Levi’s legs are propped up, Erwin carefully takes off all three of your underwear. Erwin lays on his belly in between your open legs, and starts rubbing your throbbing clit.

“Ahh-ah. Mmm that feels so good”, You moan.

Levi brings his hands around your body and grabs both of your boobs. He begins squeezing them and rubbing the nipples. All while Erwin is still rubbing your clit.

You can’t help the moans that fall out of your mouth. You were in complete bliss.

“Fuck you’re beautiful”, Erwin moans.

He then begins to lick your clit. A gasp escapes your mouth, and Levi starts kissing you again. Erwin begins penetrating you with his tongue, and Levi is still rubbing your tits. You feel like you’re on the brink.

“I’m almost-almost”, You whine.

You don’t get to finish speaking because you were too busy finishing all over Erwin’s mouth. Once he was done cleaning you up with his tongue, he sat up and wiped off his face with his hand. You couldn’t help but look at his cock, it was enormous and in need of release.

You lean forward and move out of Levi’s embrace. You motion for Erwin to lay back on the couch, and you crawl in between his legs. You wrap your hand around Erwin’s dick and start slowly pumping.

“Oh fuck”, Erwin immediately moans.

You take a few deep breaths and start licking his cock. You were really going to need your gag reflex to disappear to take all of Erwin. You put his cock in your mouth and slowly start moving down. Relaxing your jaw to the best of your abilities.

You were about halfway down when you became a little worried that it wouldn’t all fit. You feel hands on your ass and they pull you up so your ass is sticking out. You don’t have to turn around to know who that is.

You refocus on Erwin and finally reach his base. You start slowly moving your head up and down, holding back the tears that are forming.

“Mmmm, Y/n. Shit”, Erwin moans.

As you find a steady pace, you feel fingers enter you. You moan on Erwin’s cock, the vibrations making Erwin moan. Levi starts ramming you with his fingers. You probably look pathetic. It all feels so fucking good. Levi’s fingers and Erwin’s dick, you never want it to end.

“Ahh. Y/n, I’m going to cum”, Erwin says breathlessly.

You prepare yourself, you want to swallow it since he swallowed you.

Soon you feel a warm sensation hit the back of your throat. You try your best not to think about it and swallow it as best as you can.

The three of you are laying on each other panting, but then you realize that Levi hasn’t had a chance to cum yet. You sit up and Levi does as well. You see that his cock is still rock hard and you turn to him.

“Uhh I’m sorry. I hate to miss out on anymore fun, but I’m fucking exhausted. I won’t be much help in getting Levi off, so do you two mind if I head out?”, Erwin says and you can see how sleepy he really is.

“Oh of course not. Thank you for, uh, everything”, You awkwardly laugh.

Erwin smiles and kisses you on the cheek, “I should be thanking you.”

He gets up and quickly puts his clothes back on. Before you know it he’s walking towards the door.

He turns around and says, “Have fun you two.” Erwin winks and heads out the door.

Honestly you were a little surprised by Erwin’s sudden request to leave, but maybe he was trying to give you and Levi alone time. Erwin is truly the best.

Levi coughs to break the silence, “Um we don’t have to keep doing this if you’re tired.”

You’re quick to reply, “No! It’s okay. Let’s go to my bedroom though, this couch isn’t very comfortable.”

You stand and walk to your bedroom. Levi follows after you, he stares mesmerized at your ass the whole time. You both enter your bedroom and Levi sits in the middle of the bed. You crawl over to him and gently grab his cock. It wasn’t as hard as it was a few minutes ago, but it won’t take long for it to be ready.

You lay on your stomach in between Levi’s legs. You slowly pump Levi’s dick and you shower it in kisses. His moans are driving you crazy, you want to hear more.

You put Levi’s cock in your mouth and start moving your head up and down. Levi grabs your hair and throws his head back.

“Fuck”, He moans out. “Wait”, He whines.

You lift your head up and take his dick out of your mouth.

“What’s wrong?” You ask, clearly confused.

Levi looks shy, “I wanted to try something else.”

You’re curious, “Oh, what did you want to try?”

Levi looks at you, “Will you sit on me?”

Your eyes widen, “Uh-um yeah! Let me get a condom.”

You’re trying your damnedest to play it cool but you’re freaking the fuck out. This will be your first time actually having sex with Levi. You had been wanting to do this for weeks now. You grab the condom and crawl back over to Levi. You straddle him and he rolls the condom down his hard cock.

You line up his cock with your entry, “Are you ready?”

He responds with a grunt.

You slowly sit down on him and you grind on him for a few seconds while you’re adjusting to him being inside you.

“Fuck I need you”, Levi moans.

He flips you on your back and is now on top of you. He begins thrusting into you and you are scratching the shit out of his back.

“Ahhh-ah, Levi. Shit that feels so good”, You whine.

He brings his lips to you and you are making out hard as he is thrusting into you. The sounds of his moans are only bringing you more pleasure.

He puts one of your legs up on his shoulder and continues ramming into you. Holy fuck it hurts so good. He also starts rubbing your clit. Between him fingering you earlier and now this, you can feel your orgasm coming like a freight train.

“Fuck Levi! Harder!”, You shout.

Levi growls and starts ramming you so hard you feel like you can see stars. You scream out and cum all over his dick.

“Oh shit, babe. That feels so good”, Levi moans.

After a few more pumps Levi cums in you. You both are trying desperately to catch your breath. At this point it’s 3am and the exhaustion from the day is setting in for both of you.

You sleepily snuggle up to Levi and he places a kiss on your head. Normally you would never be able to fall asleep without cleaning up after sex, but you are so exhausted you don’t even think about getting out of bed.

Both you and Levi fall fast asleep, in each other’s arms.

Chapter 10 - Expect the Unexpected

Levi moves his hand and gently starts rubbing circles on your clothed clit. You can’t help but throw your head back and moan.

“Wait”, You say breathlessly, “Should we really be doing this in a bathroom?”

Levi puts both hands on your ass and picks you up. He walks you over to the counter and sits you down.

He looks at you, “Is it okay if I continue?”

You blush and whisper, “Yes.”

His hands wrap around your thong and pull it down your legs. He pushes the dress back so you are sitting bare ass on the counter. Hoping to god it had been cleaned recently.

He starts rubbing your clit with his thumb, and slowly starts entering you with one finger. It’s almost embarrassing how wet you are. His finger easily slides in and you release a moan. You hadn’t been finger fucked in a while, so you were ultra sensitive.

Levi slips another finger in and you grab his shoulder. He starts pumping at a steady pace and you’re trying your best not to scream in pleasure. You had forgotten how long it had been since someone took care of you like this. But the fact that it was Levi had your heart racing like never before. He has never seen you like this, or touched you like this.

You look into his eyes and for a moment you are just staring at each other while he thrusts into you. He leans down and bites your inner thigh. You yelp in pleasure and he starts leaving kisses all over your thighs. This entire time he nevers forgets about your clit, so you’re getting close.

“Ahh. Levi. I- I’m close. Please don’t stop”, You whine.

He does something unexpected. He puts his hand on your cheek and pulls you in. Levi starts kissing you, the passion exuding from him feels like electricity. In between kisses he enters a third finger and starts pumping faster. You’re moaning into his mouth, your arms are wrapped around his neck holding him tightly.

“Mmmm. Levi I’m about to cum”, You whisper breathlessly.

He looks you in the eyes, “Cum for me, babe.”

Your eyes widen at the name and you feel yourself release. You moan and a shiver runs through your spine. Levi holds you until you are through it.

“How was that?”, Levi asks genuinely.

“It was perfect, Levi”, You whisper. You know he can probably see how much you adore him just from your eyes alone.

He steps back and grabs a paper towel for you to clean yourself up. He starts washing his hands, and you pull your underwear back on. Once Levi’s hands are clean and his hair is fixed he turns to you.

“I’ll head out first”, He says and quickly walks towards the door.

Before you know it, he’s gone. You can’t help but feel tears start to prickle at the sides of your eyes. You look in the mirror and fix a few things that were out of place.

You chuckle dryly, “Damn I must be an idiot.”

Levi said at the very beginning of this that it was just physical, but why does my heart feel like it was shattered. You need to get a grip. You’ve had purely sexual relationships before, this is nothing different.

You take a deep breath and head back to the dance floor. You look around for a few minutes, and you finally spot Erwin. He is getting another drink when you walk up to him.

He looks at you concerned, “Where the hell have you been? I was starting to get worried.”

You smile sheepishly, “I’m really sorry. I had a hard time using the restroom with this dress. Then I was stopped a few times and got caught up in conversation.”

He smiles, “That’s okay. I was starting to wonder if you were taking a massive shit.”

You gasp and smack his arm, “Erwin! I was not!”

You both start laughing. You were grateful to Erwin for making you feel better.

The rest of the night wasn’t nearly as exciting. Mostly chatting with other people and drinking. You look to the dance floor and see Ymir and Historia slow dancing, basically eating each other’s faces. You smile at this, they really do make a beautiful couple.

Erwin gently elbows your arm, “Are you ready to get out of here?”

You reply, “Definitely.”

The car ride home was very uncomfortable. You were yet again squished in between the guy you made out with, and the guy you nearly had sex with.

Your dad broke the silence, “So I heard from a little birdy that you and Erwin were having fun on the dance floor?” Your dad turns around and gives you a wink.

You groan, “Dad please not now.”

“Well why not! You two seem to be very comfortable with each other”, You dad chuckles.

Erwin responds, “I have grown quite fond of your daughter.”

Your eyes widen and you look at Erwin, he gives you a smile.

You are unaware that Levi is seething with annoyance beside you.

“So are you going to go up to her suite tonight? I heard it’s got quite the view”, Your dad says mischievously.

You are mortified, “Dad! What the hell!”

Your dad pouts, “I’m getting old, Y/n! I want grandchildren!”

You put your head in your hands, “Oh my god this is not happening. Dad, I'm begging you, please stop!”

Erwin is laughing at your interaction with your father. Your dad huffs and turns around, he and the driver begin a conversation.

Erwin leans over to you, “I wouldn’t mind extending this date. If that’s something you would be interested in.”

You smile, “Yeah definitely. We could watch a movie and order some room service?”

“You’re speaking my language”, Erwins responds.

The car pulls up to the hotel. You say your goodbyes to your father and the 3 of you exit the car.

“Woah what the fuck? Why are you getting out?”, Levi asks Erwin.

Erwin puts his hands up defensively, “Calm down, Levi. I’m just coming up to watch a movie.”

Levi rolls his eyes and you all walk into the hotel. Once you’re in your suite you excuse yourself to change into comfortable clothes. You change into a pair of nighttime shorts and a sweatshirt. You also take off all of your makeup, and take all of the pins out of your hair. You end up putting it into a sloppy bun.

Feeling much more comfortable, you go into the living room and see that Erwin is in his undershirt and boxers.

“I hope you don’t mind, that suit was getting uncomfortable”, Erwin says.

“Oh of course! I couldn’t stand another second with all that makeup on”, You laugh.

You both make yourself comfortable on the sectional. Erwin picks a random movie and you look through the room service menu. After putting in your order, you pull a blanket down and snuggle into the middle of the sectional. Erwin is sitting up straight in front of you.

“You can come back here with me if you want. The middle is always the most comfortable”, You say to him.

He smiles and starts to get up, but Levi walks into the living room. The only clothing on him are his boxers. Your eyes widen and you start to blush at the sight of his naked chest. Thankfully the lights were dim, so it went unnoticed.

“Do you normally walk around half naked when it’s just the two of you?”, Erwin sounds annoyed.

Levi smirks, “That is none of your fucking business.”

“Knock it off, Levi”, You say.

He rolls his eyes and sits right beside you on the couch. Your head is right beside his lap now.

“So what are we watching?”, Levi asks in a bored tone.

“I just picked a movie I had never seen”, Erwin says as he sits back down, clearly annoyed.

Hotel staff comes in and places the food on the table in front of the couch. After you all fill up, you actually start to pay attention to the movie.

Unbeknownst to you, Erwin picked a scary movie. He was hoping that you would want to cuddle with him, as cliche as that is. Erwin actually enjoys watching horror movies, so he is very engrossed in the movie.

You on the other hand are trying your hardest not to scream. You absolutely hate scary movies, but you don’t want to say anything so you watch it anyway.

The first jumpscare you nearly jump off the couch. Instead, your head ends up on Levi’s lap. You go to pull away, but his hand gently starts playing with your hair. You start to relax into his lap.

Levi is playing with your hair, and you’re gently rubbing his leg with your fingers. After a few minutes you can feel Levi getting hard underneath you. Your heart starts to race and you sneak a hand under your head. You start rubbing his dick, you so badly want to pull it out and suck on it. You don’t realize that Erwin sees you until he pauses the movie. He turns on the lamp beside him.

Erwin looks at you seductively, “Would you be interested in a threesome?”

Love your bodyguard!levi series and I can’t wait for chapter 9!!

Thank you! I just posted it, so I hope you enjoy 😊

Chapter 9 - The Company Ball

It’s 5pm and Erwin will be here in 3 hours. Your dad went a little overboard and hired a hair and makeup team to help you for tonight’s ball. You jump in the shower and make sure that every inch of your body is without hair. Anything could happen tonight so you want to be fully prepared.

Honestly you wouldn’t be opposed to sleeping with Erwin. Just casually of course, your heart is with someone else. But you have needs, and if Levi isn’t willing to meet those needs you will find someone who can. Even if it’s just for an evening.

You hop out of the shower and Historia is waiting in your bedroom with a robe. You put on the robe and she starts patting your hair dry.

“You don’t have to do that”, You tell Historia.

She smiles, “It’s okay, I want to help. Tonight is special.”

“Are you attending as well?”, You ask.

Historia nods her head yes.

“Well then you can go get ready and take tomorrow off as well. I want you to enjoy yourself. Besides, I know Ymir will be there. I’m hoping at least one of us will get lucky tonight”, You giggle.

Historia blushes but is hesitant to leave, “Are you sure, Y/n? I can stay and help, I really don’t mind.”

You respond, “I’m positive. Please, go and enjoy yourself. But I better hear all about it the next time I see you.”

Historia laughs and waves as she walks out of your bedroom.

You sigh and look in the mirror. You make a promise to yourself that tonight you’re going to have fun. No more being sad about Levi, at least for tonight. You have a smoking hot date. Even though your deal was originally to make Levi jealous, you both can still enjoy yourselves.

There’s a knock on your bedroom door and the stylists walk in and start getting you ready. It took 2 hours for your transformation to be complete. The whole time you were listening to your favorite pump up music and just having fun with the stylists.

Tonight you wanted to be bold. Even though your heart was hurting, you wanted to push that aside and be confident. Let me tell you, your stylists did not disappoint.

Your long h/c hair was curled and put into a gorgeous updo. Some of your hair was out of the updo to frame your face. You had honestly never seen your hair look so beautiful.

Your makeup was flawless. Nothing too much on your eyes, but your lips were a beautiful red. Perfectly matching your dress.

Your dress. Goddamn you weren’t going to lie, your dress was gorgeous. The top had a deep v-neck, tastefully showing your cleavage. The waist was fitted to your waist, and the bottom of the dress flowed out and down your legs. There was a cut that went all the way to your upper thigh. The red color of your dress demands for all eyes to be on you.

Confidence was never your strong suit, but as you look at yourself in the mirror you can’t help but be amazed. Tonight is about you, and doing whatever the hell you want.

You take a deep breath and smile at the stylists, “Thank you all so much. I truly feel the best I ever have.”

They smile and compliment you as they’re leaving. Your phone buzzes and Erwin says that he’s outside. He also let you know that Levi was already down here and was becoming very impatient.

You roll your eyes and grab your handbag. You check yourself in the mirror one more time before heading to the elevator. When you get to the lobby you can see Erwin and Levi outside of the hotel. They are talking and not paying attention to the doors of the hotel.

Your stomach drops when you see Levi in his suit. Fuck he’s so hot. You look at Erwin, honestly he is also looking hot in his suit. You start to feel nervous as you’re walking to the doors.

“Confidence, Y/n. Have confidence”, You are internally telling yourself.

You take a breath and open the door. You start walking towards the car, and that’s when Erwin sees you.

“Damn”, Erwin says dumbfoundedly. He can’t stop staring at you with wide eyes.

Levi looks momentarily confused and then looks in your direction.

You both lock eyes and you immediately get goose bumps. The electricity that runs through you is unlike anything you’ve ever felt. Levi’s eyes are wide, and you see a small blush forming at his cheeks. At that, you start blushing as well.

You walk up to both of them, “You both look so handsome this evening.”

Erwin replies, “I assure you, neither of us compare how gorgeous you are.”

You giggle, “Thank you.”

Erwin asks, “Am I right, Levi?”

You look at Levi nervously. He meets your eyes.

Levi responds shyly, “You look beautiful.”

Your eyes widen and your cheeks redden once again.

“Well we better get going. We don’t want to be late”, Erwin says.

You get into the back of the car, internally cursing yourself for telling your dad you didn’t need a limo.

Your dad turns around from the passenger seat, “My oh my. Y/n you look so beautiful! Doesn’t my daughter look beautiful?” He asks everyone in the car.

Your driver, Erwin, and Levi all agree. Your dad turns back around and is busy talking to the driver.

You are squished in between Erwin and Levi. Your heart is racing. You were trying your best to keep your legs in the middle as much as you could.

Erwin has now joined the conversation with your dad and the driver. You sit there quietly trying to get your heart to calm down.

Your eyes widen as you feel a leg slowly press up against yours. You look at the leg, already knowing who it belongs to.

Maybe it was a mistake, maybe he’s just more comfortable. It’s dark outside so it would be hard for anyone else to notice. You let yourself cherish the feeling, you were unsure of how long it would last.

You then felt a hand slowly start to touch your exposed thigh. It took everything in you not to react. Your heart is pounding. You look down and see Levi’s hand resting on your thigh, he is tracing circles on you with his thumb. He was driving you crazy.

Well you wanted to be bold tonight, so here goes nothing. In the dark, you slowly move your hand down to his. For a few moments, your hand was just resting on top of his. But then he shocked you. He quietly turned his hand so that your palms were touching. Levi then carefully intertwined his fingers with yours.

You were in complete bliss just at this gesture. You were embarrassed to admit that you were starting to get wet at all of these secret touches in the dark.

You were holding hands with your bodyguard, while sitting next to your date, and your father in the front seat.

As you pull up to the building, Levi squeezes your hand and then slowly pulls away. Your heart sinks in the absence of his hand.

You exit the car and Erwin meets you with his arm out. You wrap your arm in his, and enter the building.

The place is decorated beautifully. There is an abundance of food and drinks, you can’t wait to dig in. You decide to brush off the events in the car. Tonight was going to be an amazing night.

You grab a glass of champagne and start drinking. At your table you sit next to Erwin, Levi decides to watch from a distance giving you your space. You and Erwin are enjoying your food, and the alcohol is making your cheeks lightly rosy.

“Would you like to dance?”, Erwin asks.

“Of course! Dancing is my favorite.”, You respond with a smile.

Erwin could feel a tug at his heart when you smile, but he wasn’t going to tell you that.

You both walk to the dance floor and he places a hand on your hip, and your hand is on his shoulder. He gently holds your other hand and you begin to dance. You can’t help but notice how much bigger his hand is than yours.

The dance floor is pretty crowded, and the alcohol is really starting to kick in. You are definitely tipsy at this point.

The slow music comes to an abrupt halt, you hear the crowd start to complain.

“Alright folks! I know this is technically a ball, but that doesn’t mean we can’t have a little bit of fun right?”, The DJ says with the microphone.

All of the sudden one of your favorite songs comes blasting over the speakers. It makes you feel like you’re back home at a party with your friends. You look at Erwin and see that he wants to leave the dance floor.

You grab his hand, “Awe come on. You aren’t going to leave me so soon, are you?” You tease him.

He laughs, “Oh fine. But I’m no good at dancing to fast music.”

You laugh and look around you. Everyone is jumping and grinding, it seems that they’re all having a good time. You notice that you and Erwin are situated in the middle of the crowd, so you hope your dad doesn’t see what you decide to do next.

You grab Erwin’s hand and turn around. You start dancing and shaking your ass on his front, giggling the whole time. Erwin slides his hands on your hips, holding you close and begins to grind on you. You can’t help but feel like someone is watching you. You look up to the second floor, it doesn’t take long for you to lock eyes with Levi. He is throwing back what looks to be glasses of whiskey. He looks pissed.

You look away and can’t help but smirk. You start grinding more on Erwin and bring your hands up behind you to hold his neck. He starts leaving kisses on your neck. While this is happening you look back at Levi. He looks like he’s about to jump over the railing. You do something evil, and you smile at him.

Honestly you could care less that this was technically a work event. This felt way too good, and you were tipsy as fuck.

Erwin surprises you and he spins you around to face him. He grabs your face and pulls you in, your lips meet and it doesn’t take long for you two to start making out. You taste wine from his tongue, and you know he must be tipsy as well.

Thank god it was dark in here, you really didn’t want your dad to see this. Even though he would probably only be ecstatic.

The kisses become rougher and Erwin squeezes your ass with one hand. What is it with you and guys on the dance floor? Something about it just turns you on.

You pull away. You both are catching your breath.

“Let’s not go too far, at least not out in the open like this”, You say and then wink at Erwin.

“Damn, Y/n. You’re so sexy”, Erwin responds.

You giggle, “You’re not so bad yourself.” You realize how full your bladder is from the alcohol, “Hey I need to go to the restroom.”

Erwin nods, “Okay. I promised a few people I would say hi tonight, so I’ll be doing that while I wait.”

You smile and turn around, pushing your way through the crowd. You don’t realize how loud it was until you walk into the dimly lit hallway. Your ears slightly ringing, the hallway is empty and you walk to the bathroom.

You finally get to relieve yourself, and you feel so much better. You’re washing your hands when you hear someone enter the bathroom. You’re shocked when you look in the mirror and see who it is.

You turn around, “You can’t be in here! It’s the women’s restroom!”

Levi doesn’t say a word. He is staring a hole through you. He shuts the bathroom door and locks it, he walks quickly over to you.

“What are you doin-”, You shout.

Levi cuts you off by smashing his lips against yours. His hands are around your waist, and for a moment you just stand there. You finally come to and you start to kiss him back.

He is very impatient and his tongue pushes itself into your mouth, this makes you moan. He moves from your lips to your neck, where Erwin’s lips were just a few moments ago. Levi starts sucking and nibbling all over your neck, as if he was trying to erase any trace of Erwin.

You start trying to undo his belt buckle but he snatches your wrist.

“I don’t want to give you the wrong idea. If we go any further, it’s just physical. It doesn’t mean anything. Are you okay with that?”, Levi asks.

You pout, “But why?”

Levi sighs and lets go of your wrist, “I’m your bodyguard, not your boyfriend.”

You roll your eyes, “Fine. No feelings, just physical.”

Levi looks at you like he doesn’t believe you, but you pull him in and start kissing him harder. You reach your hand down to his belt and undo it. You reach your hand in and can already feel how hard he is. You pull it out from his pants and start rubbing it.

Levi moans, “Ahhh. Oh fuck.”

You continue to pump his cock, and you grab his chin. You make eye contact with him and your heart flutters as you see the small blush on his face. His eyes roll back as you start to pump him faster. You kiss him roughly and you can tell that he is close. You decide to be bold.

You pull out your boobs from the v-neck of your dress. His eyes become wide and he immediately has his hands around them. He leans in and is kissing each one.

“Ah shit. I’m going to cum”, Levi whimpers.

You pull his chin back up so you could make eye contact. You smile lustfully, “It’s okay, Levi. Cum for me.”

He immediately moans at your words and cums. You moved his cock to the side at the last minute, so his cum was all over the floor and your hand.

“Fuck. I’m sorry it got on your hands”, Levi says breathlessly.

You bring your hand up to your face and start licking your hand clean while moaning. Levi looks fucked out and like he’s about to pounce you.

Once your hand is clean you say, “Mmm all better.”

You turn around and start washing off your hand, you see in the mirror that Levi is pulling up his pants. While he’s cleaning up the floor, you’re fixing your hair and makeup.

Levi is done washing his hands and you start walking to the door.

“What are you doing?”, Levi asks.

You turn around confused, “We should probably get back out there.”

Levi walks to you, and moves your dress to where your entire leg is out of the slit. The slightest bit of your thong is showing. Your face immediately turns red at this.

“Nah we aren’t going back out there just yet”, Levi smirks and leans into your ear, “I want to hear you scream”.

Chapter 8 - A New Friend

The car ride to the convention was pin drop silent. Yesterday after your phone call with Sasha, you had your driver take you to In-And-Out. Thankfully, you were able to quickly sneak out without Levi noticing. As you were driving away, you saw Levi running towards the car. It was too late though, he wasn’t able to catch you.

As soon as you got back, Levi was waiting on the curb for you. He gave you a tense lecture for about an hour. Honestly you were barely listening. Afterwards you spent the rest of the evening in bed watching tv.

Your phone buzzed, bringing you out of your daydream. Sasha was just checking in to see how you were doing. You lied and said that you were 100% better. You told her that you had been drinking so that’s why you were so emotional. Obviously that was a lie, but she didn’t push you on the subject.

You spent extra time on your appearance this morning hoping that it would make you feel better. It helped a little with your confidence, but you couldn’t deny the hurt you felt deep inside.

The car pulled up to the convention center, you got out of the car and went into the building. Not bothering to wait on Levi, you knew he would be tailing you anyway.

The first few sessions were boring. You really just weren’t in the right headspace for this. Thankfully, Levi watched over you from a distance today.

It was finally time for lunch and you were starving. You grab the salmon platter and head to a table alone. You sit down and start eating. Your anxiety starts creeping in, you can feel your body start to get overheated. Even as an adult, you can’t help but feel like a loser because you’re eating alone. All of your insecurities start creeping in and it feels like everyone is staring at you. Just as you’re starting to consider leaving, someone pulls the chair beside you and sits down.

You look over, relief immediately washing over you. You don’t care who it is, you're just glad to not be alone anymore. The man sitting next to you is very tall with blonde hair and noticeably thick eyebrows.

He looks at you and offers you his hand, “My name is Erwin Smith. I’ve been meaning to introduce myself. I’m one of the senior managers at your dad’s company.”

His smile puts you at ease and you shake his head, “It’s good to meet you. I’m Y/n.”

Erwin laughs, “Yes I know.”

You blush and internally cringe. Of course he knows your name, dumbass.

“I think I could be helpful to you as you begin transitioning into our company. I would like to be friends if you’re okay with that”, Erwin says sweetly.

You smile, “Oh yes of course! Thank you so much. Everyone already has their groups of friends, so it’s hard to meet anyone. Especially when you’re the CEO’s daughter. I think everyone is afraid of me.”

Erwin chuckles and puts a reassuring hand on your shoulder, “Don’t worry. I’ll help you meet everyone worth knowing.”

You spend the next hour getting to know Erwin. You don’t take his kindness lightly, you’re extremely grateful to him. Little do you know, a grumpy asshole has been staring daggers into the back of your head this whole time.

Erwin leans over, “Hey, are you and Levi a couple?”

You stare at him shocked, “Uh no. Why would you think that?”

He laughs, “No reason. I was just trying to figure out why he’s been glaring at us this whole time.”

You immediately turn your head around and your eyes meet Levi’s. He’s clearly pissed.

You turn back around and roll your eyes, “He’s technically my bodyguard, but he’s more like a pain in my ass.”

Erwin lets out a loud laugh, “I like your sass. Most people are intimidated by him.”

“Well I’m not most people”, You say teasingly. “Wait, how do you know Levi anyway?”, You ask.

“Oh Levi and I go way back. I’m actually the one who recommended him to your father for this bodyguard position”, Erwin says.

Your eyes open wide, “Wow really?

Erwin smiles and asks, “Is it hard to imagine Levi and I as friends?”

You giggle, “If I’m being honest, yes. You’re so kind and open, and Levi is so...wounded.”

Erwin raises his eyebrows, “I don’t know if I’ve ever heard someone use that word to describe Levi. Scary and stubborn are normally what people describe him as.” Erwin ponders the word for another moment, “It seems that you have seen right through Levi. Right to his very core. I’m very defensive of Levi, you see. Most people don’t give him a chance because of his cold demeanor. But if you even spend one second truly looking at him, you’ll see a bird who’s wing is broken. He’s wounded.”

You don’t acknowledge the tears that are threatening to fall onto your face.

You whisper, “I just wish he would let me in.” You wipe a tear and chuckle, “I must look so stupid. He’s my bodyguard after all. He could have any woman in this building if he wanted. Why did I think I even stood a chance.”

Erwin looks at you with concern, “Did something happen?”

You hesitate but choose to trust Erwin, especially knowing that he would never intentionally hurt Levi.

“Well, we kissed and did...other things”, Your face starts to redden but you continue, “Afterwards he was very cold to me, and when we got back to the hotel room he said that it was all a mistake. That it shouldn’t have happened.”

Erwin pinches the bridge of his nose in frustration, “That idiot.” He is quiet for a moment before starting again, “What if we test him to see if his real feelings for you come out?”

You look at him curiously, “What do you mean?”

Erwin smiles mischievously, “What if we act like we are starting to become romantically interested in each other? I know Levi, and if he truly has feelings for you he will become jealous immediately.”

You ask, “You don’t think Levi will be upset when we tell him it was a joke?”

“I think he’ll be more grateful that we helped him realize his true intentions”, Erwin says confidently.

You agreed to the plan, and you both casually talked while finishing your food. Your Dad soon approaches you, and Levi decides to also come over when he sees your father.

“Y/n! I’m glad to see you’ve finally met Erwin! Handsome fella, isn’t he?”, Your Dad asks with a smile.

You blush and remember your plan, “Yes he is, Dad.”

You don’t notice Levi’s eye twitch at your answer.

“Well, Y/n, I wanted you to come with me so we could discuss your plans for the rest of the day”, Your Dad looks to Levi, “There’s no need for you to come along since I will have my guards with me. Take the next few hours off to relax!”

Levi argues, “Sir I disagree. I don’t think I should be separated from Y/n.”

Your Dad responds, “Oh nonsense! She’ll be just fine.” He motions for you to follow him, “Come along.”

You walk after your father, but stop to look at Levi. He looks pissed and doesn’t break eye contact with you. You manage to pull your eyes away from him and catch up to you Dad.

Erwin’s POV

Levi is seething as he sits beside Erwin.

“Hey Levi, long time no s-”, Erwin starts.

“What the fuck are you doing with, Y/n?”, Levi asks bluntly.

Erwin plays dumb, “What are you talking about? I was getting to know her, we are going to be co-workers.”

Levi rolls his eyes, “Cut the bullshit, Erwin. I saw her blushing and I saw you laughing. You two looked like you were on a goddamned date.”

Erwin asks, “And if we were? Why does that matter to you?”

Levi looks away, “You can’t date my client.”

Erwin pushes, “Maybe, but I can fuck her.” Erwin has no intentions of that, but he wants to see how Levi will respond.

Levi snaps his head and stares daggers into your eyes. If looks could kill, Erwin would absolutely be dead right now.

“What the hell did you just say?”, Levi continues, “Look, you’re my friend but you are really pissing me off.”

Erwin doesn’t back down, “What’s wrong with me wanting to fuck Y/n?”

Levi growls, “I swear to god if you don’t stop saying that I’m going to put my fist through your skull.”

Erwin chuckles dryly, “I don’t see why this is an issue. You used to be my wingman, why can’t you be now?” Erwin pauses and then smiles, “Unless...you want to fuck Y/n as well.”

Levi whisper yells, “Oh my god I don’t just want to fuck Y/n! Can you stop saying the words fuck and Y/n!?”

Erwin teases, “Hmm so there’s more you want? Do you have feelings for this woman, Levi?”

Levi pushes out of his seat and as he walks away he says, “Fuck you.”

Erwin lets out a hearty laugh. His plan is already working.

Y/N’s POV

“Dad, do I have to?”, You ask.

“Absolutely. I won’t budge on this, it’s very important that you have a date to the company ball”, Your dad responds bluntly.

You sigh, “Well that would’ve been nice to know considering it’s tomorrow.”

Your dad chuckles, “I happen to have a few eligible bachelors that I could set you up with.”

You shake your head, “No that’s okay. I have someone in mind.”

You sit while your dad is talking to someone else, and pull out your phone. Luckily you had exchanged numbers. You pull up his name and start a text.

“Hey, Erwin. This is super last minute, but my dad insists that I have a date to the ball tomorrow. Would you like to go together?”

Erwin responds quickly, “Of course. I’ll pick you up at 8.”

You sigh and look out the window of the building. At least you’ll have someone to dance with, even if all you can think of is those gray eyes.

Chapter 7 - Beach Day

The next morning you spend extra time in the shower, making sure that you’re ready to wear a bikini. The bikini you choose to wear is an olive green color. You look at yourself in the mirror. Honestly, you look amazing. You feel a surge of confidence rush through you, excited to show off your bikini.

You pack up the rest of the necessities for the day, and put on your cover up. You walk to the living room and see Levi with a pair of sunglasses on his head. This makes you giggle.

He looks at you, “What?”

You smile and reply, “Oh nothing. Are you ready to head out?”

He shakes his head yes and you head out to the car. The car ride was fairly quiet, you were comfortable in the silence with Levi. You pull up to the beach parking lot, you look at Levi and see his eyes widen at the sight of the ocean.

“Let’s go”, You smile and get out of the car.

Once you reach the sand, you take your shoes off. You see Levi look momentarily confused, and then does the same thing. You walk to a fairly secluded part of the beach and set your stuff down. The sun is boiling hot.

“Are you wanting to get in the water?”, You ask.

He thinks for a moment and then looks at you, “Do you think it’s safe?” He looks genuinely concerned.

You giggle, “As long as we don’t go too far out we’ll be fine.”

A small smile appears on his face, “Then yes. I would like to get in.”

You then reach into your bag and grab the sunscreen.

“Let’s put this on before getting in”, You say.

He nods his head in agreement. You hand him the sunscreen and he casually takes off his shirt. Your eyes widen and you quickly look away, trying to act calm. You never thought about the fact that you and Levi would be half naked while swimming.

Levi interrupts your thoughts, “Hey brat. Can you get my back?”

You respond quickly, “Oh yes!”

You stand up and put the sunscreen in your hands. Thank god Levi isn’t facing you so he won’t see the massive blush on your face. You start carefully applying the sunscreen on his bare back. Damn he is so muscular, his back is extremely attractive. You make sure you don’t miss a spot.

“Okay all done”, You say.

He turns to you, “Want me to get yours?”

“Oh yes!”, You respond as normally as you can. Your heart is pounding through your chest. You take off your shorts and then your shirt. You carefully put them back into your bag.

What you don’t see is the way Levi is checking you out. He’s completely mesmerized by your body.

You walk over to Levi and turn around. Your body breaks out into goosebumps at his touch. You aren’t sure if it’s because of the cold sunscreen, or his touch alone. He takes his time rubbing the sunscreen over your back.

When he’s done you smile and you both start to apply it to the rest of your bodies.

“Alright. Let’s head to the water!”, You say excitedly.

You both start walking, once you make it to the water you stand on the edge and let the water hit your feet.

Levi is staring out into the ocean, he looks completely relaxed. The water feels great on your feet, the hot sun beating down on you.

“Can we go in?”, Levi asks shyly.

“Of course!”, You reply.

You both start walking into the ocean. First your shins are covered, then your hips, and before you know it you’re nearly treading water.

You start laughing and you look at Levi. You’re shocked, you’ve never seen him smile so big. He looks so happy. You feel an urge to be mischievous, and splash Levi. He looks at you temporarily shocked.

“Oi, brat”, He then splashes you back.

Before you know it you both are giggling like children and splashing each other. You walk over to Levi and grab his leg. You start walking away and he loses his balance, and splashes into the water.

When he comes up he says, “Oh that’s it.”

He moves to you quickly and picks you up bridal style. He then tosses you into the water. When you come up for air you’re laughing so hard.

“Oh my god my sides hurt”, You say in between laughs.

Levi comes over and helps you fix your hair. He moves a piece out of your eyes.

He looks at you gently and says, “You’re beautiful.”

You freeze up and a blush covers your cheeks. You smile and look down, unsure of what to say.

Levi continues, “To be honest, I’ve always wanted to see the ocean. So thank you. I’m glad I could see it with you.”

You look at him, he looks so innocent. At this moment, you turn off your reasonable side. You allow your heart to take over, the side of you that has been wanting Levi overcomes you.

You walk over to him, he freezes momentarily but then relaxes. You both start leaning in and closing the gap.

“Levi”, You whisper.

“We shouldn’t,'' he replies.

Levi gently places his hands on your cheeks and pulls you in. Your lips meet and it feels like someone just released a thousand butterflies in your stomach. The first few kisses were sweet and calm. You push your hand through his hair and pull him into you with your other hand.

He deepens the kiss, your tongues are now in each other's mouths. He puts his hands on your ass and picks you up. You wrap your legs around his torso and your arms around his neck, the water is making you weightless.

He begins kissing your neck, you can’t help but release a moan. This causes him to pull your hair so your neck is completely exposed. He continues showering your neck with kisses.

“Levi”, You moan.

“Y/n, you’re so goddamn sexy”, He says darkly.

You start to feel something hard forming under you. You slowly slide your hand down his abs and feel his hard member. He growls at your touch and you begin rubbing it over his clothes.

“Fuck, Y/n”, He whispers.

You reach your hand in, and feel his cock. You pull it out of his pants and start slowly pumping it. Levi throws his head back, biting his lip. You can tell he’s holding in moans. You look around, thankfully no one is close by.

You begin pumping faster, you start leaving kisses all over his neck. You got to his collarbone and began sucking. You wanted to leave a mark on him.

“Oh shit, Y/n I’m almost there”, Levi whines.

You continue pumping him, but looking at his face distorting because of the pleasure you were causing him was making you feel warm.

You lean in and whisper in his ear, “Mmm you like that, Levi?” He grunts and immediately cums at your sultry voice.

“Oh fuck, baby”, Levi says out of breath.

Your face turns red at the sweet name he called you. You continue to slowly pump until he has ridden out his high. Making sure to leave gentle kisses on his forehead, his nose, his cheeks, and lastly his lips.

He opens his eyes and looks at you. He puts a hand on your cheek and leaves a sweet kiss on your lips.

He sighs, “We should probably get going. We have a lunch reservation.”

You smile and nod. As you’re drying off and putting your clothes back on you can’t help but wonder, does this change anything? Maybe that was just a one time thing, a moment of weakness. You glance at Levi and he seems completely back to normal. You try to hide your disappointment and get on with your day.

The rest of your afternoon was spent eating delicious food, and awkwardly making conversation with Levi. When you finally return to your hotel suite, you head to the bathroom and get in the shower. You wash away any remnants of the beach, trying to also wash away what happened in the ocean.

You gasp when you feel tears streaming down your face. What the hell is wrong with me? It’s not like you’re a virgin. You’ve had sexual encounters before with people you don’t have feelings for. Why does this feel different?

You sigh, “Fuck. I’m so stupid.”

You wipe away your tears, allowing a few more to fall. You think you might have feelings for Levi. You slap your forehead. You can’t believe you allowed yourself to be so honest. Shit this can’t be happening. But the way he touched you, and the way he was so gentle with you. It was almost like you could feel....love.

“God dammit, Y/n get it together”, You whisper and scold yourself.

You get out of the shower and dry yourself off. You slowly put your clothes on, dreading facing Levi. You know he’s probably waiting for you.

You slowly open the bathroom door and walk out. Your heart sinks when you see Levi sitting on the couch. His legs are crossed and he was clearly waiting for you.

“Y/n, come have a seat. We need to talk about what happened”, He says calmly.

You slowly walk over and sit on the couch across from him. Your hands are starting to slightly tremble.

“What happened earlier shouldn’t have happened. I apologize. I was so happy and I let that cloud my judgment”, Levi says curtly.

You nod your head and respond quietly, “Okay.”

Levi raises an eyebrow clearly confused, “Do you not agree that it was a mistake?”

You’re still not looking at him, “I don’t know.”

“Y/n. Look at me. What do you mean?”, He responds.

You look at him nervously, “Well is it really so bad that it happened? Would it be so terrible if you were attracted to me?”

Levi turns serious, “Y/n. I’m your bodyguard, not your boyfriend. What happened earlier was a mistake and it meant nothing. I was hoping that since you sleep around, you would be more understanding.”

Your eyes widen and tears are brimming, “Since I sleep around? So you thought since I’ve had sex with two different guys, that I’d be willing to be your little play thing? Fuck you. You’re not the Levi I met earlier today.”

You stand up and start walking to your bedroom, at this point you’re crying.

“Y/n wait. That’s not what I mean-”, Levi started.

You slam the door in his face and lay in your bed. You’re overwhelmed with hurt and heartbreak. You were dumb enough to believe that maybe he felt the same way. You didn’t want to be alone. You picked up your phone and called Sasha.

“Hey, Y/n! How’s Cali?”, Sasha asks excitedly.

You start to sniff and you can’t help but burst into tears.

“I’m sorry, Sasha. I don’t mean to damper your mood”, You say through choked back sobs.

“Oh my god what the fuck happened, Y/n? Are you okay? Let me look on my phone and I can check for plane tickets”, Sasha says very seriously.

You chuckle sadly, “No Sasha it’s okay. It’s just, well- I don’t know how to tell you this.”

You explain everything that happened with Levi. Even choosing to tell her your thoughts you had in the shower. After telling her, you felt exposed.

“Oh, Y/n. Thank you for telling me all that. Damn I’m so freaking sorry. I wish I could help, you must be feeling so alone right now”, Sasha responds hesitantly. You can tell she’s holding back tears.

You reply a little more composed, “Thank you for listening. It honestly makes me feel a little better. Now that you know, I don’t feel as alone.”

Sasha says with a fire in her voice, “I swear to god, Y/n. I will kill him. I will beat his stupid ass and make him regret everything he did.”

You giggle, “I miss you. Thank you for being such a good friend.” You look at the time, “I have to get going but I’ll keep you updated.”

“Okay but please tell me if you need anything”, Sasha says.

“Always”, You say and end the call.

That phone call really did help make you feel better. You sigh and decide to take advantage of the last few hours of your free day, alone.

Chapter 6 - It’s Not Your Fault

You and Levi are walking into the enormous room for the opening ceremony. Your father’s company definitely went all out for this. The decorations and the snacks look amazing. You take a seat towards the back and check the time. It’s 5 oclock, hopefully this doesn’t go too long so you can get some sleep.

There’s quite a few speakers, most of them just introducing themselves so you know who they are for the week. Most of the time you tune them out and stare at the wall. You sneak a glance at Levi to see him paying very close attention to what the speakers are saying. You hide your smile that is forming.

Your Dad walks on stage and everyone's on their feet clapping.

“My name is Felix L/n, and as you know, I’m the CEO of this company”, Your Dad says with a smile.

It’s a little strange to see him in this setting. Even though you will take over the company one day, he’s always been very good about making sure you don’t experience the stress of the company. He wanted you to have somewhat of a normal life. Now that you will be graduating in the spring, you have to start learning about the company and taking on more responsibilities.

Your Dad is talking about his slideshow. He goes to the next slide and you see many different pictures of you. This makes you groan and you put your hand on your face. Levi chuckles at your embarrassment.

“This is my daughter, Y/n. She is your future CEO”, He says proudly. You hear a few gasps throughout the room. “Y/n will be graduating from University in the spring, and will be more involved with the company. So get used to seeing her face. In fact, she is here now in the crowd. Y/n please stand so everyone is able to see you.”

You are absolutely mortified. A small blush creeps on your cheeks and you awkwardly stand and wave. You look around and everyone is smiling at you.

“That’s my girl! Isn’t she beautiful? Single too!”, Your dad says happily.

“Oh my god”, You whisper. You sit down and put your head in your hands. You’re so embarrassed and ready to go back to the hotel.

Your Dad continues, “Cocktail hour will last an hour after this. Please come say hello to my daughter and I!”

You glare at your Dad. He said that on purpose so you couldn’t leave. You’re only staying for one hour and that’s it. Any longer and you will throw a fit.

As your Dad is making his final announcements, you sit with your arms crossed and a small pout.

Levi leans over, “Don’t be so childish.”

You whisper back, “I hope you realize my Dad is going to force me to talk to single men for the next hour. That sounds like torture to me.”

Levi looks at you confused, “Why wouldn’t you enjoy that?”

You sigh, “They only want me for my money and the company” You show Levi a weak smile, “But it’s okay, I can handle myself.”

The first thing you do when cocktail hour starts is chug a glass of champagne. You reach for another one and stomp over to your Dad.

“Would you like to explain to me what the hell that was all about?”, You ask angrily.

“Language, Y/n. I just wanted to give you a warm introduction”, He responds with a smile.

You roll your eyes, “It sounded like you were trying to marry me off. Please don’t ever do that again without letting me know ahead of time. I may be single, but I’m okay with that.”

Your Dad winks at you, “For now.”

You spend the next hour talking to countless men. Some talk only business with you, while others flirt incessantly with you.You were trying to be cordial, but there was one man who was really getting under your skin. Levi kept his distance during all of this, but had his eyes on you the entire time.

After one hour of non-stop talking and four glasses of champagne you were ready for bed. You were leaving the bathroom when someone put their arm against the wall, blocking you from heading to your car.

You look up annoyed, and when you see who it is you are even more angry.

“How about you tell me which hotel you’re staying at, and I’ll come spend the night”, Floch says with a wink.

“How about you step the fuck aside or else I’ll break your nose?”, You say with no hint of amusement. You were done with his bullshit.

His eyes widen, “Where did the sweet Y/n go that I was talking to 20 minutes ago?”

“She left the second you decided to put yourself in my personal space. Now please step aside”, You reply.

Floch smiles and whispers closer to your face, “Make me.”

You groan and push him aside. As you walk past him he grabs your arm hard and pulls you back to him. At this point your heart is hammering in your chest.

“Let me go now!”, You shout.

Floch squeezes your wrist so hard that your hand starts going numb.

You wince, “Ow! Floch stop messing around, you’re actually hurting me!”

You stomp on his foot as hard as you can with your heels. Just as he’s letting go of your wrist to grab his foot, something flashes in front of you.

Levi punches Floch so hard in the face that he falls onto the ground and isn’t moving.

“Holy shit did you kill him?”, You ask in shock.

Levi doesn’t answer. He runs to you and carefully picks up your wrist. You see the murder in his eyes as he sees your now bruising wrist.

You grab his arm so he looks at you, “I’m okay, Levi. It hurt, but I handled myself like I told you I would.”

He looks away from you and walks back to Floch. He checks to make sure he still has a pulse and stands up.

Your Dad and his bodyguard come running out, “Y/n! Levi! Are you alright!?”

You sigh, “Yeah Dad I’m okay. Just a little bruise. This asshole, Floch, wouldn’t take no for an answer. I stomped on his foot and then Levi took care of the rest.”

Your Dad nearly broke out into tears and ran to hug you.

“I’m so sorry, honey. This is all my fault.” He turns to Levi and scolds him, “Where were you!? Aren’t I paying you to protect my daughter? Why was she injured under your care? Why did she have to get this slimeball off of herself?”

“Dad! No it’s not his fa-”, You start to argue.

“I’m so sorry, sir. Y/n was going to the bathroom, so I took that time to also go to the bathroom. It is all my fault, I should’ve waited until we were back in the hotel room”, Levi says frantically.

You step in front of Levi and face your Dad.

“None of this is Levi’s fault”, You say sternly. You see your Dad roll his eyes, “No you look me in the eyes right now! This is not Levi’s fault. It’s nobody’s fault besides that asshole laying on the floor. Levi did everything right”, You say with fire in your eyes.

Your Dad is taken back by your little outburst. Levi is also standing there with wide eyes. He was shocked at how much you were defending him.

Your Dad stutters, “R-right. Okay. I’m sorry.” He looks at Levi, “None of this was your fault. Thank you for looking after Y/n.” He calls over more guards, “Please escort Floch off the premises. He is not allowed to return to this conference.

The ride back to your hotel room was silent. You knew you were both exhausted, but you just hope Levi was beating himself up over this.

When you get to your suite, Levi walks straight to his room.

“Hey wait”, You call after him.

He turns around and you can see the guilt in his eyes.

“Levi, I meant every word I said. This wasn’t your fault. It was just bad timing, but I would’ve been fine”, You say confidently.

Levi slowly walks up to you and gently holds up your wrist. He looks at the bruises, and his face looks like he’s in pain.

“It’s okay, Levi. I’ve experienced much worse pain”, You say with a small smile.

He looks at you and quietly says, “I’m so sorry, Y/n. I should’ve been there.”

Before you could say anything he gently kisses the inside of your wrist. When he notices you don’t pull away, he kisses all of your wrist. Covering the bruises in his kisses.

Your face is completely red and your mouth is slightly open in shock. He looks up at you, a light blush covering his cheeks.

For a second you think he might kiss you. He slowly put your wrist back down.

“Get some sleep, Y/n”, He says quietly and turns to go into his room.

His door closes and you nearly fall to the ground. Did that just happen!?

You walk into your bedroom and get into your pajamas. Your head hits the pillow and you feel your heart still fluttering from what just happened. You check the time and see that it’s only 8pm. You lift your arm and in the moonlight, the bruises didn’t look too bad. You didn’t care. All you could think about were the invisible remnants of Levi’s lips.

Why are you acting this way? You feel so happy, but why? Does Levi really have that much of an effect on you?

Your thoughts start to jumble as you slowly drift off into a deep sleep.

-

You wake up and stretch while laying down. You can tell you just slept like a rock. You check the time and see that it’s 9:30am. Holy shit you just slept for 13 hours. You slowly sit up and stare at the mirror. Your hair is a mess and you look terrible. You look at your calendar on your phone, thankfully the first event isn’t until noon.

You sneak to the bathroom with a change of clothes. You were relieved Levi didn’t have to see how disgusting you look. The warm water did wonders for your headache. You went to grab your shampoo, you notice the bruises on your wrist. You had almost forgotten about them after your encounter with Levi. They were a deep purple and covered your entire wrist. Honestly, your wrist was extremely sore but you weren’t going to say anything.

After your shower, you dry off and get dressed. When you walk into the living room you see Levi sitting there eating breakfast.

“Morning, sleepy head. I didn’t think you would ever wake up”, He says with a smirk.

You smile, “Yeah I guess I was really tired.”

He gestures to another plate, “I ordered you room service since you weren’t awake to do it yourself.”

“Oh thank you!”, You walk over to the table and sit down.

You both eat breakfast in silence. It was a little awkward, but you were trying to ignore it.

“So did you sleep well?”, You ask.

He responds, “Yeah. I didn’t realize how jet lagged I was until I laid down.”

You giggle at the thought of Levi passing out on his bed.

He looks shyly at your wrist from across the room, “Does your wrist hurt?”

“No”, You lie. Shit you definitely responded too quickly.

Levi gives you the stink eye and walks to the refrigerator. He comes over to you with an ice pack and gently lays it on your wrist.

You smile, “Thank you. It really will be okay. It’s only sore.” You change the subject, “Are you excited for all of today’s sessions?”

He responds sarcastically, “Oh yeah. So excited.”

You laugh and say, “Hopefully it won’t be too boring. At least there will be good food.”

Levi nods in agreement. Afterwards there is a knock at the door. Levi lets Historia in and she gestures you to your bedroom. You follow her and she helps you with your hair and makeup. You make sure to wear something with long sleeves.

-

12 hours later

You and Levi walk inside the suite and plop on the couch.

You sigh, “I’m not going to lie, that was rough.”

Levi responds, “My brain feels like mush.”

You laugh and rub your head. Thankfully tomorrow is one of your days off, you couldn’t wait to explore.

“Hey, would you want to go to the beach tomorrow?”, You ask Levi.

“Well it’s not like I really have a choice. I will be going wherever you go”, He says curtly.

You don’t love that answer. “Well I want you to make your own choice for tomorrow. Forget about work for a little bit. What do you want to do?”, You ask curiously.

He thinks for a moment and then smirks, “Yeah I guess the beach does sound nice. I’ve always wanted to see the ocean.”

Chapter 5 - The Conference

It’s early the next morning, your phone is ringing.

“Hello?”, You say groggily.

“Well good morning, sunshine! It’s almost noon, why on earth are you still in bed?”

You sigh, “Hi Dad. It’s the weekend so I like to let myself sleep as long as I need.”

“You won’t be able to do that forever you know. Once you’re running my company, you’ll need to be ready at all times”, He lectures.

You respond with annoyance, “Yes I know, but until then I will allow myself the luxury of sleeping in.”

Your Dad sighs, “Well I didn’t mean to wake you, I just thought you might be excited to know that I will need you to attend our annual business conference next week.”

Your eyes widen, “What? Really? You don’t normally let me attend, why now?”

“Your mother talked some sense into me. You’re graduating college in the spring, so we need to start getting you ready for the real world. You’ll only be shadowing and observing at the conference, but it will give you great experience”, Your Dad explains.

You smile, “Thank you, Dad. I’ll be looking forward to it. Am I able to get this in writing so I can show my professors?”

He responds, “Oh don’t worry about that. My assistant already took care of it. All you need to focus on is what you want to pack. This year's conference is in L.A.”

You gasp, “L.A?! Are you serious? Do we have any days off? I would love to explore and go to the beach!”

Your father chuckles, “You will have one full free day, and a few free evenings. But honey please don’t forget our arrangement. Levi is to accompany you, even to California.”

You roll your eyes, “Yes I know.” You weren’t surprised that Levi was coming with you, but you were annoyed by it.

“Your mother and I leave in 2 days to make sure everything is prepared correctly. Your flight leaves a week from today. Oh, and one more thing”, Your father smiles at you, “We will also be hosting a ball one evening. Just a fun little treat for our investors and everyone attending.”

You squeal, “Oh my god! I need to pick out a dress! I’m so excited!”

Your Dad laughs, “Just make sure you don’t drink too much, Y/n. There might be a few eligible bachelors there.”

“Whatever you say”, You respond with a smile.

The next week was extremely hectic. You were working really hard to get ahead of your class assignments so you didn’t have to worry about them while you were away. Late nights of homework and studying. During the day when you weren’t in class, you were busy buying an entire new wardrobe.

You had to buy plenty of business casual outfits for the conference so you look like you belong there. On the flip side, you also bought a handful of new bikinis and fun outfits for your days off. But your favorite piece of clothing you bought was definitely your dress for the ball. You couldn’t wait to wear it! You honestly looked drop dead gorgeous in it.

Before you knew it, it was the day of your flight. You and Levi rush to the airport, you have 5 enormous suitcases following you. Your dad hired an assistant for the week to help you out.

“Historia, thank you so much for helping with the bags. I don’t know what I would’ve done without you!”, You say as you’re taking your seat on the plane.

She giggles, “It’s no problem, Y/n. I’ll see you after the flight.”

Historia walks back to economy, you were going to give your dad an earful for that. You will definitely make sure she is in first class on the way home.

You sigh as you look out the window. You glance to your side to see Levi mindlessly scrolling through his phone. Sometimes you forget that he’s even there. You were so busy this last week you’ve barely spoken to him.

As the plane begins to taxi to where it needs to go, your hands start to shake.

“Shit”, You whisper.

You’d hoped your flight anxiety had gone away, it’s been years since your last panic attack on a plane. It wasn’t as debilitating, but you can feel the anxiety slowly creeping in. Takeoff and landing are what really freak you out about flying.

“Y/n?”, You look over to see Levi staring at you.

You didn’t notice but you had gripped both of the armrests as hard as you could. Your face is pale, and tears prick the sides of your eyes.

Your mouth is dry and you say quietly, “Sorry. I have terrible flight anxiety. Takeoff and landing are the worst parts for me.”

You close your eyes as you feel the plane come to a stop. You know at any moment the plane is going to take off. You try to take deep breaths, you’re squeezing the armrests as hard as you can.

You feel a cool hand slip over yours and grab your hand. You peek over to see Levi staring at you, it’s clear he’s trying to comfort you.

The plane takes off and a small whimper leaves your mouth. Levi pulls your hand to his chest and wraps himself around your arm. You look at him and you can see the worry in his eyes. The plane makes a sharp turn to head in the right direction. Your eyes close and you’re squeezing Levi’s hand as hard as you can.

After a few minutes, the plane levels out and you can feel your breathing returning to normal. Your heart is still racing, but you’re well aware that’s because of something else. Levi is now rubbing small circles over your hand.

You look at him and give a weak smile, “Thank you. I’m feeling better now.”

You slowly start to remove your hand from his. He gives your hand a gentle squeeze and releases it.

“Would some wine help your nerves?”, He asks genuinely concerned.

You smile, “I think that would help a lot. Thank you.”

Levi waves down one of the flight attendants and they bring you a glass of red wine.

You slowly sip on it as you watch a random movie. After your second glass you can feel the buzz kicking in. You eat lunch on the plane, and after another movie the pilot let’s everyone know you’re almost to your destination.

Landing was much smoother, thanks to all the wine you had. You were still anxious, but the alcohol helps you relax. Although there was something on your mind, something you couldn’t stop thinking about. Even after you were off the plane and in the car on the way to the hotel.

Levi held your hand during the landing.

Even though you were much calmer this time, he still gently held onto it. The weirdest part was, you let him. You even kind of liked it.

Maybe it’s the alcohol, or maybe it’s the jet lag that’s causing you to think about your bodyguard.

Once you get to the hotel you’re shown to your rooms. Historia is on the same floor but a few doors down. You and Levi are in a suite.

You walk into your suite, surprised by how beautiful it is. You look around and notice there are two bedrooms. For some reason your heart sank. Of course there would be two bedrooms. Levi is your freaking bodyguard. It must be the exhaustion causing you to feel this way.

The hotel worker leaves a tray of fruit and lets himself out. Levi walks into the smaller bedroom and starts unpacking his things. You sit on the couch and eat some of the fruit that was left.

Levi looks at his watch, “You have 2 hours until the opening ceremony starts.”

You groan, “Why would they have that in the evening. I just want to sleep.” You slouch over on the couch.

You whine some more and then finally push yourself off the couch.

Historia has already unpacked most of your things, and is hanging your clothes to prevent wrinkles. You grab an outfit and your shower supplies. You start walking to the shower when Levi interrupts you.

“Hey brat. Don’t take too long. We’re sharing a bathroom, so remember I have to shower as well”, He says curtly.

You’re so tired and don’t know how to respond to him calling you a brat. So you do what you think a brat would do.

You stick your tongue out and shut the bathroom door.

What am I, a child? You laugh to yourself and turn on the shower. The hot water feels so nice after a day of travel. You try to be quick, remembering that Levi also needs to shower.

You notice that there is shampoo and bodywash in the shower that doesn’t belong to you. Levi must’ve already put it in here when he was unpacking. You stare at it for a moment. You pick up the bodywash and open it. You put it near your nose and smell, a small smile appearing on your face. It smells like Levi.

You nearly drop the container when you realize what you’re doing. You run your face under the hot water, hoping that will help you come to your senses.

When you hop out of the shower, you go to grab your clothes and realize you forgot your underwear and bra. You groan and smack your forehead. The jet lag is really starting to make you tired.

Historia is most likely back in her room by now, and Levi is probably hanging out in his room. So it shouldn’t be too hard to run into your room without being seen.

You wrap the towel around your body and grab your clothes. You walk out of the bathroom and as soon as you get to the living room, you see Levi biting an apple.

You freeze and he drops his apple as he sees the towel wrapped around your body.

“For fuck’s sake!”, Levi shouts and quickly shields his eyes.

You scream as you run to your room, “I’m sorry! I forgot my underwear!”

You slam the door shut behind you. Did you really just tell him about your underwear? A blush erupts across your face and you just want to crawl into bed forever.

You finally get yourself dressed in black dress pants and a nice pink long sleeve top. You dry and straighten your hair. You quickly reapply your makeup and you stand up to look at yourself in the mirror. You look cute but professional. You check the time and grab your purse.

As you’re walking to the living room you say, “Levi! We need to-”

You stop talking when you see Levi standing against the door looking at you like he’s bored. He’s in dress pants and a dress shirt, he looks so good. You chuckle when you see his tie is slightly crooked.

You walk over and fix his tie, “All better.” You smile and walk towards the door.

What you don’t see is Levi’s wide eyes and the slight blush on his cheeks.

Chapter 4 - The Aftermath

Everything happens so fast.

Levi and Eren are pushing each other, both of them look pissed.

“Levi! Eren! Please stop!”, You scream at them and put yourself in between them. “Let’s talk outside!”, You yell because the music is so loud.

You drag them both outside and stand beside Eren. You face Levi with your arms crossed.

“What the fuck, Levi?”, You ask annoyed.

Levi rolls his eyes and says, “I didn’t like the way this guy was sucking your face and putting his grimy hands on you.”

Eren tenses up and you put your hand on his arm to calm him down.

“You don’t get to decide who I let touch me”, You say curtly.

Eren looks at you, “Who the hell is this guy anyway?”

You respond quickly, “Oh he’s just a friend.”

Eren stares down Levi, not convinced.

You face Eren, “Look, maybe we should all just go home? We’ve all had a lot of alcohol, and it’s getting late.”

Eren’s face relaxes, “Yeah you’re right. I can call us a ca-”

“That won’t be necessary”, Levi interrupts. “Our car is here. Let’s go, Y/n”

Your head snaps to Levi, anger starts boiling in your chest.

“Our? Do you two live together?”, Eren asks quietly.

You look at Eren apologetically. You start to respond, but Levi puts his arm around your shoulder with a smug look.

“Yeah we do. Not that it’s any of your fucking business”, Levi responds coldly.

Your eyes widen and you shove Levi’s arm off of you, “What the hell is wrong with you, Levi?”

You rub your temples and sigh, “Eren, I’m sorry. I lied. Levi is actually my bodyguard. I normally keep that a secret because it’s safer that way. I didn’t want you to get the wrong idea since Levi has decided to be an asshole tonight.”

Eren responds, “Bodyguard? Why do you need a bodyguard? So he’s not a jealous old boyfriend?”

You laugh harder than you expect, “Trust me. He’s not my boyfriend, he’s my bodyguard.”

You look at Levi and he is glaring at you.

“Listen, I can explain everything another time. I’m exhausted, but I promise you Levi is just an employee of my father’s. That’s why he pulled you off of me. He is here to protect me”, You look at Levi, “But clearly he made a mistake.”

You walk over to Eren and smile, “I’m really sorry, but I promise I’ll make it up to you.”

Eren smiles and pulls you in for a hug, “I’m going to hold you to that.”

What you don’t see is the way Eren and Levi are glaring at each other.

You pull away and kiss Eren on the cheek, “See you on Monday.”

Levi follows you to the car and you both get in. Your driver immediately puts up the partition after seeing what was going on outside. You text your friends that you’re safe but that you’re going home.

You turn to Levi who is looking out the window. He honestly looks bored.

“Care to explain?”, You ask annoyed.

Levi doesn’t even look at you. He just says, “Tch.”

“Oh hell no. Don’t give me that”, You grab his face and make him look at you. “What the hell was that?”

Levi’s eyes widen for a split second at your boldness, but then pushes your hands off his face.

“I shouldn’t have to explain myself. Your father pays me to protect you, I was doing my job”, He says annoyed.

You roll your eyes, “Eren is my friend and he was no danger to me. I’m pretty sure I made that obvious by the way I was kissing him.”

Levi scoffs, “I don’t think your father would like how much he was grabbing your ass.”

Your face becomes red and you can feel your blood start to boil. You have had it.

“My father has no say in who I kiss or who I let touch me! Do you know how long it’s been since I’ve had sex?! You just ruined my chances of getting any tonight!”, You scream at Levi.

You immediately cover your mouth with your hand, your face turns red.

Levi’s eyes are wide, clearly shocked at your sudden outburst.

His voice was quiet, “You were going to have sex with that guy?”

You nervously say, “Uh well yeah.”

You look at Levi and are unable to read his expression. You’ve never seen him look like this before.

“What?”, Your voice barely above a whisper.

Levi looks at you softly, “Isn’t that the kind of thing you save for someone you care about?” He waits a moment before continuing. “I’m not saying you have to love them, but at least get to know them more. I didn’t think you were that kind of a person.”

That statement makes you snap your head in Levi’s direction.

You chuckle coldly, “You don’t know me, so stop shaming my decisions. I can fuck whoever I want to. In fact-” You grab your phone out and text Eren, “I’m inviting Eren over tonight so you might want to sleep with headphones. I’m loud, really loud.”

Levi looks dumbfounded by your suggestion. Once he realizes what you say he huffs and crosses his arms.

“You are so childish, Y/n”, He says and looks out the window.

You don’t respond, but immediately regret your immature decision when you see Eren’s response that he’s on his way.

Why am I so stubborn? Why is Levi getting under my skin so easily?

Your car pulls up to your building, and you both exit and head to the elevator inside.

Once in the elevator Levi smirks, “Maybe I’ll invite that little red-head over sometime.”

You’re immediately annoyed by this comment and respond, “Do whatever the fuck you want, old man.”

You stomp out of the elevator and into your home. Maybe inviting Eren over wasn’t such a bad idea after all.

You devise a plan, and text Eren to see if he was interested.

After his encounter with Levi, he was definitely down to mess with him.

While Levi was fixing a snack in the kitchen, you hurriedly go to your room and get out your favorite pair of lingerie. It’s red and has a lot of lace, but it covers your boobs and lower region. It’s a thong so your ass is out, but since that’s what caused all the problems tonight you figured it would be fun to show it off.

You do a quick fix of your hair and makeup. You’re about to walk back into the living room but you notice your heart is racing. Why? It’s just Levi. He’s been annoying the shit out of you all night. He deserves some payback.

You take a deep breath and you walk out of your room. You walk to the kitchen and act oblivious to your seductive outfit.

Levi chokes on his water, “Woah what the fuck, Y/n?!”

You look at him innocently, “What? I’m starving.” You continue to dig through the refrigerator, trying to conceal your smile. Levi has a front row view of your bare ass.

“Putting some fucking clothes on!”, He yells.

You grab some grapes and close the refrigerator, “Nah I don’t think I will.”

Levi shoves you against the counter and puts both of his hands on your bare ass.

He whispers softly in your ear, “Don’t tease me like this, Y/n. It’s not fair.”

Levi pulls his head away from your ear, and you stare into each other's eyes. You couldn’t breathe.

At this moment, Levi looks so gentle. You start leaning your head closer to his, and you notice a faint blush creep over his cheeks. You would let him take you right here right now.

Although it seems like fate is not in your favor. As soon as he cups your face with his hands and starts to bring you closer, the doorbell rings.

You both jump and Levi is immediately on alert. You put a hand on his chest to calm him down.

“It’s just Eren”, You sigh.

Dammit. Why did you have to invite him over?

Levi looks down, “Oh.” He turns to walk away.

You start to grab his arm, “No wait, Levi. I don’t want hi-”

The doorbell rings again.

Levi turns to you, any affection is completely gone. “Go get the door. We wouldn’t want to keep your boyfriend waiting.”

You argue back, “Levi you know he’s not my boyfrie-”

The doorbell rings a 3rd time.

You sigh and put on your robe that was hanging in the closet by the door. You open the door and see Eren smiling.

“Hey! I came as soon as I could”, He responds shyly.

You push through your disappointment and say, “I’m glad you could make it! Come in.”

Eren comes in and takes off his shoes and jacket. You lead him to your bedroom, Levi’s bedroom door is closed but the light is still on. You both walk into your bedroom and you sit on your bed.

“Listen, I’m sorry but I was pretty drunk when I texted you. It was stupid and immature, I’m sorry if I’ve wasted your time”, You say while looking at the floor.

Eren walks over and sits beside you, “Spending time with you is never wasted time for me. We can just hang out and watch movies if that makes you more comfortable.”

You look up at him and smile, “Yeah I’d like that.”

You walk to the bathroom and change into your pajamas. You come back out and see Eren take off his shirt. You notice that he’s only in his underwear.

He jumps at the sight of you, “I’m sorry! I only sleep in my underwear, I was going to get under the blankets before you came back.”

You smile and walk towards the other side of your bed, “It’s okay, you just surprised me.”

You both get under your blankets, and you turn on Netflix.

“What do you feel like watching?”, You ask.

Eren thinks for a moment, “How about Zootopia?”

You start laughing and search for the name. Once you find it your press play, you both are just awkwardly sitting in your bed.

You scoot closer to him, “Do you mind if I make myself comfortable?”

He smiles, “Not at all.”

You both lay down and you rest your head on his chest. He began gently rubbing circles into your arm, his steady heartbeat lulling you to sleep.

You wake up to warm arms wrapped around your stomach. You feel Eren’s chest pressed up against your back. You turn to your back and look at his peaceful face. He’s such a sweet guy. Not many men would snuggle you in your bed all night without trying anything.

You poke his cheek. He lets out a cute noise, you can tell he doesn’t want to wake up.

“Eren. Wake up it’s 10 in the morning”, You whisper.

He slowly opens his eyes, when he looks at you he smiles and snuggles into your neck.

You giggle, “Let’s get up. I’ll make breakfast.”

He whines but lazily rolls out of bed. You put on your robe and he slides on his sweatpants, deciding to stay shirtless.

When you walk into the living room you see Levi sitting at the table with a cup of tea. He looks pissed and is scrolling through his phone.

“Good morning”, You whisper and walk to the kitchen.

Eren sits at the couch and starts going through his phone.

“It was pretty quiet last night”, Levi says to Eren.

Eren looks up from his phone, “What of it? Are you some kind of a pervert?”

Levi rolls his eyes, “No I’m not a fucking pervert. What did you two do last night?”

Eren smirks, “Do you really want me to spell it out for you? I think you already know.”

You walk in and say, “Enough! Nothing happened. We cuddled and watched Zootopia until we fell asleep. Now stop glaring at each other.”

Levi looks at Eren, “Tch. Zootopia? What are you, a child?”

Eren snaps back, “Why are you so interested in what Y/n does with me anyway? You are her bodyguard. It seems to me like you might have inappropriate feelings for your client.”

“Why do you care so much about my intentions with Y/n? Doesn’t look like you’re her boyfriend, asshole”, Levi snaps.

“Okay! This conversation is done. Neither of you are my boyfriend, so both of you need to stop being so possessive. I’m my own person and I can do whatever the hell I want. Eren, last night was honestly amazing and I can’t wait to hang out again. I made you some breakfast on the counter, you can let yourself out when you’re done.” You smile and start walking to your room. “I’ve got a date with my bed and Netflix so I’ll talk to you guys later!”

You walk into your bedroom and close the door. You can hear the confusion by your sudden outburst and you giggle. You jump into bed with your breakfast and turn on your favorite show. You spent the rest of the day doing what you do best, absolutely nothing.
