Weeks past, then a month. Hael convinced Levi to allow her to move to his room permanently. People talked-- people talked an infuriating amount. Word was somehow out the morning of their first night together (a soldier, training with a 3DMD saw them through Levi's open window and had spread the word). Levi couldn't walk down the hall without getting a sly look from Erwin or Hange. Hael's girlfriends giggled and poked her, "oooo-ing" and "awww-ing". After about a week, they found something else to talk about and started leaving Hael and Levi alone.

One night, Levi came into their room to find Hael sitting at his desk, chin-on-fist, watching him. "Tch. Are you going to tell me why you're watching me or are you going to just keep admiring my body?" Hael scoffed, at one point that would have turned her cheeks scarlet, but not now. "Tomorrow, we are going to meet on that little hill outside." She replied slyly.

"The one under the tree?" Levi asked, boredly.

"No, the other one," Hael said sarcastically, "Yes the one under the tree!"

"Why?"

"If I told you, it wouldn't be a suprise, would it?"

"I don't like suprises." Levi growled.

"Too bad." Hael said, standing and walking up to Levi, running a hand gently up his chest and untying the ruffle at his neck. Levi's hand slipped around the small of her back, and he pressed her closer to him, planting a kiss on her nose, then down to her lips.

"Hael Negroj," he said.

"Yes Levi Ackerman?"

He smiled and said, "I think I love you."

So this was a short chapter to set up the next one. Stay tuned to find out Hael's suprise!

Also, I really like this chapter, because although it's short, it gives a nice peek into just an everyday evening between Levi and Hael.

Send me a star to put in their night sky! ⭐️⭐️
