Chapter Text
The music thumping and lights flashing, Levi scowled as he pushed a couple off of the couch in which he was currently residing. Shitty people, come to make out on his couch. Not going to happen. They glowered at him as they slunk off to find a new make-out spot and Levi couldn't help but smirk to himself. That's what I thought. He thought in annoyance, wondering where Isabel was. She had forced him to come, and he was tired of waiting for her. Where was she anyways?
"Great party, huh?" Eren flinched at the sudden closeness of his friend. Her pigtails bounced as she bobbed her head to the loud music and he covered a hand over his ear in annoyance. "I love parties—Hey don't touch, that!" She shoved her drink into his hands and he watched her hurry off to smack someone on the back of their head before setting down what looked like a vase of some kind and she walked back over.
"Yeah. Great party."
Levi was glancing around when he spotted the bouncing pigtails that belonged to Isabel. The man's gaze darkened as he stood from his spot on the couch and strode over to her. Despite only being about 5'3", somehow he appeared taller than that by the deadly glare that could make the tallest man on earth cower in fright.
"Oi, Isabel. Where the hell have you been? Leaving me by myself in this shitty place." He grumbled darkly.
Eren laughed when Isabel jumped as someone walked up behind her, almost making her drink fall out of her hand.
"Oh, hey Levi!"
"Isabel, you don't need to yell," Eren told her over the music. But he wasn't sure if she heard him, so he let her do whatever. It's not like anyone cared anyways. They were too drunk off their asses to care about anything besides the cops coming to bust the party. Eren was surprised that they had made it this late into the night.
She slung an arm around the short man. "It's fun. Loosen up," she hiccupped, and Eren watched in amusement as the man grimaced in disgust. "This," she gestured to Eren, "is Eren. Eren, this is my best friend," she hiccupped again, "Levi."
Levi scowled at Isabel, wondering who exactly she would be introducing... oh.
He stared at the boy in front of him for a moment, completely stunned. It was the boy he'd seen in one of his classes before. The boy with the sun-kissed skin, messy chocolate brown hair, perfect body, sweet voice, and gorgeous eyes that Levi could look at all day. He was even better looking up close than he had been far away.
He was stunned and it took him a few moments to regain his bearings. "Who's your best friend?" He couldn't help but scowl at Isabel. She had totally planned this, she was the only one who knew about his fascination with the perfect being that stood before them. The perfect being he had not been able to approach.
Isabel hiccupped again and she let out a fairly loud groan. "These fucking hiccups man. Go away." She held her breath, plugging her ears and Eren stared at her, snorting at how ridiculous the sight looked. He turned to the boy, Levi. He had seen him in class before. It was the one that Isabel always went on about during their biology lab.
Eren smiled at him, opening his mouth, but instead he was quick to poke at Isabel's side and scream, "Boo!" Her eyes flew opened and she screamed, high pitched and loud and she stumbled away a couple steps while her drink fell to the floor. Eren laughed, holding his stomach as she glared at him, only laughing a bit hard when she smacked his arm. He settled down, taking note of her crossed arms and pouty face before extending a hand.
"Hey, I'm Eren."
Levi rolled his eyes at the pair, annoyed with Isabel's high pitched scream that rang in his ear. He rubbed the assaulted ear, shooting her a dirty look. She might be his best friend, but damn she could be annoying.
He looked at the boy as he extended his hand and introduced himself. He took it, enjoying the feel of the boy’s warm hand in his. "Levi." He said, even though Isabel had already introduced him. He didn't care, he still had the right to introduce himself if he wanted. It wasn't any of Isabel's business anyways.
"Okay, well, I'm gonna go... do stuff." Before Eren could protest about her leaving him at a party he was forcibly dragged to by both her and Jean, she ran off, leaving he and Levi in an awkward silence. Eren dropped Levi's hand and rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly.
"Best friends, huh? That must be interesting. How long have you two known each other?"
Levi scowled at Isabel's bouncing pigtails as she left before turning back to Eren, regarding him carefully for a few moments before responding. "Since we were young. Our parents knew each other." He admitted with a shrug. He glanced around, hoping to find some un-spiked alcohol somewhere nearby. He could really use a drink right now.
Eren bent over and picked up the cup Isabel had left lying on the floor. It smelled of some weird kind of alcohol and it wasn't going to be long until she was drunk along with everyone else. But he found himself thinking he could use a drink himself.
"You want anything to drink? I'm kind of thirsty, but I am in no way touching anything that has been opened already. I would like to have some recollection of what I did rather than be found passed out in someone's front lawn."
Levi smirked. "I'm with you there. Let's go find the kitchen." He said to Eren, pushing his way through people with no regard as to who they were or what they were doing. Quite frankly, he didn't care for any of their dirty asses.
Eren followed Levi though the crowd, laughing a little at some of their displeased faces as Levi shoved passed them. They made it to the kitchen, the music level falling greatly and he could finally breathe in fresh air instead of sweat and alcohol.
Once there, he sifted through the fridge and what he could see. Finding a few unopened beers, he passed one to Eren. "It's not the best, but it's something." He told him with a shrug, popping the top one his and taking a carefully measured swig so as to not spill any on himself.
He took the beer from Levi, watching as he took a careful swig before popping his own open.
"Is it any good?"
He shrugged. "Tastes like piss in my opinion. Then again, I've never really liked beer." He admitted, leaning back against the counter, his arms crossed with the beer held in one hand. "So how do you know Isabel?" He asked, regarding Eren for a moment as he stood there with his own beer that hadn't yet been opened.
Eren reluctantly opened his, taking a hesitant sip. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't good. He's defiantly had better. He was practically best friends with one of the schools biggest party animals after all
"Oh, we have biology labs together. She's also roommates with one of my best friends. So I met her through my friend and then we found out that we had class together." He hopped up on the island counter behind him, directly across from Levi. "She talks about you a lot."
"Tch. Of course she does." He snorted, exasperation leaking into his tone. But then he suddenly became curious. "What... has she told you?" He asked a little hesitantly, his heart dropping into his stomach. Isabel, I swear if you told this punk anything weird you are so dead. He swore silently, mortified at the mere thought of all of the secrets and childhood stories she could have spilled.
Eren laughed at Levi's obvious hesitancy and curiosity. He shrugged, holding his beer with both hands in his lap. "Um... Usually it's just her talking about you. Or some other guy named Farlan? She tells me loads of stories about him. But, she's told me a couple of stories about you. Like how when you were like ten while watching the movie Marley and Me. She said she has also caught you dancing with a broom and singing along to Britney Spears, so…" Eren hid his smile and laughed, taking a sip of his beer.
Levi had been taking a drink of his beer and spluttered a little, wiping his mouth with his sleeve. His cheeks turned a light shade of red. "You are shitting me right now. I never did any of that," he lied, "she is so dead." He growled. Except he had done both of those things.
He had only been ten, and who wouldn't cry? It was the saddest thing every when the dog had died. Levi had never cried for people, but animals were a completely different story.
And the broom dancing had been a one-time thing, Isabel had been the one blasting that shitty music for days on end, getting it stuck in his head. He'd sang it without even realizing it.
Eren snorted at his reaction. "Sure you didn't. Izzy said you would react that way. Maybe she knows you a little too well." He took note of the light shade of red dusting his cheeks and he smiled a bit.
"Don't worry though. I've done some pretty stupid shit in my life too. Everyone does. Well, and I'm friends with some pretty stupid people, so it's inevitable that I wouldn't do something stupid."
Of course she did. Why did she have to butt her nose into things and tell him pointless things?
"In my defense, I was ten when I watched that movie and second one was her fault." He replied weakly, hating the sound of his own voice right then. Oh god, why did Isabel have to introduce him to such a beautiful boy that she knew he had stared at in class more than a few times, captivated by him.
Eren laughed once again, softly this time and he waved in dismissal. "Don't worry about it. I'm not judging you. Trust me, I've done a lot of crazy shit. And you were a child. Children cry about the strangest of things. And Isabel cried when she dropped the frog we were dissecting on the floor."
He rolled his eyes. "That's something she would cry about." He mused, this time his voice a little gentler. As much shit as he gave her, he loved Isabel as if she were his blood sister. In a sense, she was his sister, even though they had grown up in different families with different lives.
Eren took another swig of his drink, running his tongue over his teeth as he got used to the strange taste. He nodded in acknowledgement at someone who walked over to a red cooler that sat on the ground, rummaging through the ice and he grabbed two cans before walking back out.
Levi watched Eren's gaze travel a little, but his gaze never left him. He knew he would probably never get a chance to be this close to him again. It was stupid and weird and probably crazy, but Levi had been enamored with him since the very first time he saw him.
Eren set his beer on the counter next to him, running a hand though his hair. "I could tell you an embarrassing story if it'll make you feel better."
He shrugged at Eren's offer. "Whatever you want." But in truth, he wanted to hear it. He wanted to hear all the stories this boy might have to tell him.
Eren's eyes brightened a bit, his smile widening and he laughed at the story he had yet to tell.
"Okay, so, one time, I was dozing off in class during a reading session, and just when I hit the point of actual sleep, I moaned so loud it woke me up. The class was quiet, everyone was staring at me, wondering why I made a sexual-sounding noise like that. I coughed to tried and cover it up, but to no avail." His face was now burning a bright red at the story, but he smiled anyways as he rubbed at the back of his neck.
Levi snickered, his own cheeks dusting a light pink at his story. He hoped Eren wouldn't be able to tell in the slightly dim lighting of the kitchen. His own thoughts were not pure at the sound of his story as he tried imagine the sound Eren must have made, and how much he wanted to hear that sound in person. How much he wanted Eren to make that sound for him.
He cleared his throat to hide his own embarrassment and to not give away any of his own thoughts "That is pretty bad." He admitted.
He laughed himself at the story. "Well, it's not as bad as Jean. We were having an end-of-the-year party. You know who Jean is right? He's like one of the star soccer players for the University. So, Jean got a little too drunk and at the end of the party our whole class found him making out with a tree," Eren's smile was big as he thought back to the memory and he shook his head.
He picked up his beer, finding that he's drunk quite a bit of it over this conversation with Levi.
"Had to take him over to my house after that. My parents were out of town that weekend, thankfully, and he passed out after puking all over my shoes." He let out a sigh and scratched at his cheek. "The things I have to do for that idiot."
"Tch. How cliché." He mused, but smirked at the story. At least he'd never done anything so embarrassing publicly like that. Then again, he wasn't even sure he could get drunk. He'd never tried, nor did he have any interest of it. Unlike Eren, Levi had barely consumed any of the beer he held in his hands but took another drink of the disgusting liquid. He preferred harder alcohol, like vodka.
"Close friend of yours or...?" He asked a little awkwardly. Levi had thought about approaching the brunette before, but that blonde kid was always there and the way they had stuck so close... well they looked as if they were together as more than friends. That alone shattered had his confidence and pretty much eliminated any chance that he would approach Eren.
Eren's smile fell a little at the question and to a smaller, fond smile. "Uh, well, yes and no? It's kind of complicated, but he's just one of my really, really good friends. We've known each other since, like, the seventh grade, and we played soccer together. We fought a lot, but we remained friends. He helped me through some shit and I helped him through his tough times."
He slid off the counter, dumping the rest of the beer down the sink and he threw the bottle into the trash. "We don't fight as much anymore now. We've grown up, matured. He used to be such a nerd though," Eren laughed as he leaned against the sink with his arms crossed. "But I was too. Glasses and braces. The whole nine yards. He was just a loser, in my opinion anyways."
Levi could feel his heart sinking a little. Suddenly, he really disliked this Jean guy already. They definitely sounded like they were together, or at least like Eren was interested in Jean a lot more than he was saying. It kind of annoyed Levi, even though he knew he had no real right to be annoyed.
"Ah, so you were a nerdy little brat, then." He mused with a smirk, not really wanting to comment on the way he talked about Jean. He didn't want to give away any of his real thoughts, and he felt as if those big green eyes could see right through his very soul.
Eren scoffed a little, his own assumed smirk making its way to his face as he looked back up at Levi. "I guess you could say that. I mean, I have plans to become a Marine Biologist, so good grades were a must. I got teased for it quite a bit, being called a nerd and a geek and all that because I loved the ocean. I still do. I visit it as much as I can. If I didn't have Jean or Connie, I probably would have had a bad high school experience rather than a good one."
He took notice of the slight scowl on Levi's face, deciding to change the subject. "What about you? Were you a good kid or one of those rebels that teacher hate so much?"
He rolled his eyes. "Neither. I kept to myself. I got good grades, but the teachers didn't like me. Then again... no one liked very much except Isabel." He admitted. He knew he wasn't the nicest person and he was not the most agreeable. But that was okay with him. He had less shit to deal with then.
"I didn't know what I wanted to do when I was in high school. I wasn't even planning to go to college." He admitted, drinking a large gulp of his beer to distract himself.
Eren was a bit surprised at this. Levi didn't seem like one of those kids that kept to themselves. He was one that struck Eren as a trouble maker, but he knew better than to judge a book by its cover.
"I like you. You're pretty chill. A lot nicer than some other people I've run into, trust me. And Isabel likes everyone. She's just one of those natural social butterflies." He smiled at the thought of when they first met.
“And what about that Farlan kid? Do know him or is he just a friend of Isabel's?"
"Ah, my brother actually. I'm adopted." He admitted. He wasn't surprised that he knew about Farlan since he seemed to be rather chummy with Petra. That girl had a mouth like a train that never stopped. He loved her, but man she could talk. He couldn't help but feel a little pleased that Eren liked him, though, and thought he was cool. It was a positive sign, at least.
He raised his eyebrows. "Oh, that's cool. I have a sister. She's adopted too. And she's a little overprotective. Pretty sure she would murder me if she found out that I was at a party. But I don't have any homework and I didn't have any other ways to spend my Friday night. And I was forcibly dragged here by Jean, Sasha, and Connie." He sighed. "But, it's not as bad as I thought it would be. Could have been worse." He sent a Levi a smile.
Levi felt his heart beating wildly in his chest as Eren smiled at him, and he felt a little shy but didn't let it show. He was good at masking his emotions-usually anyways.
"I'm glad I came too. Honestly, I was reluctant to come because I knew the place would be full of stupid kids making out and drinking and puking." He shivered at the thought. They were all so dirty with their disgusting bodily fluids. It was why he avoided parties as much as possible. They were unsanitary.
Eren laughed at his statement. "Isabel also said you were one of the most sanitary people she knew. It's not a bad thing to be sanitary either. Good hygiene is a good thing." The door opened from the kitchen, the loud music blaring for a second before it closed.
"Oh, hey Eren. Looks like I finally found you."
Eren's smile grew. "And you're not drunk," he gave them an applause as they walked over after grabbing a beer can from the cooler. "That's a surprise." They stopped, cracking the can open before taking a large gulp of it. "Oh, uh, this is my new friend, Levi. Levi, this is Jean."
Levi regarded the new addition into their conversation, suddenly a little annoyed. He didn't particularly enjoy this new addition to the room. His face suddenly became expressionless and impossible to read. His voice was equally as flat once he finally spoke. "I've seen you in classes before." Was all he said, his jaw clenched slightly.
"Yeah, I've seen you around too. You're Isabel's best friend. Or Farlan's brother, right?" Eren nodded, instantly taking notice of Levi's change. "Farlan talks about how cool of a guy you are. It's finally really great to meet you." He turned his attention to Eren. "Sorry you had to get stuck with this loser," he reached up and ruffled Eren's hair, earning a whine from the other boy. "He's a handful."
Eren laughed slightly, grabbing Jean's hand and shoved him away. "You're a handful, you dickbag. Besides, how many times have I told you, don't touch the artwork." Eren gestured to himself with a smug smile as Jean rolled his eyes.
Levi suddenly felt awkward, controlling his urge to shuffle awkwardly and fidget. He glanced away, his eyes sliding over to look at nothing. "Ah, yeah. I've heard Farlan mention you once or twice." He said, his voice maintaining the same monotonous tone. He wasn't sure what to do with himself, but somehow that affectionate display had made him feel uncomfortable.
He finished his beer and threw it in the trashcan. "Well, I should probably go find Isabel and make sure some stranger isn't climbing all over her. See you, Eren." He said without looking at them again and hurrying off into the crowd, pushing the rowdy drunks around as he searched for Isabel.
Eren watched as Levi left in a hurry. "Levi, wait!" He wasn't able to catch him in time before he disappeared into the crowd. He sighed.
"What was that about?" Jean asked as Eren walked back over to his spot against the sink. Their sides were pressed together, but Eren didn't push him away, Jean sipping idly at his drink.
"I don't know. He was fine before. He's actually pretty chill. I like him. Pretty glad I made friends with him." He looked over at Jean who nodded slowly, continuing to sip his drink before walking over to the trash can after crushing the can in his hand. The door opened once again and they watched as Isabel and Farlan entered the kitchen.
"Thirty seconds late, guys." Eren said and they looked over at them, "Levi just went looking for you."
"Why? Wasn't he in here with you?" Isabel asked as she opened the fridge and grabbed a bottle of water.
"He was, but then he left. Seemed upset about something? But then again, I've only known him for like an hour, so I wouldn't know if he was or wasn't." He looked over at Jean and Farlan who were staring at something on Farlan's phone. When Jean let out an “Oh!” he presumed they were watching some kind of soccer video.
"You've had class with him all this time, and this is the first time you've ever talked?"
Eren nodded. "Yeah. And uh, pretty sure that when he find you, you're dead meat." He sent a sheepish smile her way. "Sorry not sorry."
"We're going out to do some soccer ball tricks," Jean and Farlan called and they left, Eren shaking his head as they did so. It was dark outside. How would they even see anything?
Five minutes into searching and Levi had yet to find Isabel. He stormed up the stairs, popping open doors as he searched for her. All he could think was that she better not be locked away in some room with some guy. It was obvious where he was after numerous squeals and yelling followed him. He didn't bother to close any of the doors. They could do that themselves. He didn't care what they were doing, it was all disgusting to him.
Within five more minutes, Levi was fully and royally annoyed. He wanted to leave, and then wondered why he hadn't just called her. Levi scowled darkly to himself, causing a few nearby people to shuffle away nervously and he pulled his cellphone from his pocket and dialed her number, waiting impatiently for her to pick up.
Isabel rolled her eyes, jumping up on the counter across from Eren. "Whatever," she muttered. "So, did you guys have a bad conversation or something?" She asked and Eren shook his head once again. "Then why would he be upset?" He shrugged just as her phone began to ring. She grumbled, pulling it out and answering it. She opened her mouth, but she didn't say anything after a second.
"Isabel?" Levi said as the phone was answered.
"Levi? Where the hell are you? Why did you just leave? Why are you even looking for me?"
Levi growled. "Because you were drunk off your ass earlier. I went through all of the bedrooms even, how did you not hear them screaming?" He asked, incredulous at the fact that she was so oblivious. "Besides, why would you introduce me to him? You knew I'd been looking at him. You should have just left it be. Now where the fuck are you?" he said, his tone laced with annoyance and irritation. He just wanted to go home.
"Well, first off," Eren watched as she shifted to her sassy posture and he bit the nail of his thumb, his arms still crossed. "I was not drunk off my ass, excuse you." He laughed at the head bob she did.
"And second, I did it because I was a great friend and you need to thank me. I did you a favor." She said triumphantly.
He was sure that only she could talk to him that way. She was incredibly sassy and it was quite amusing. Jean and Farlan made their way back in and Eren silenced them as Isabel continued to argue with Levi on the phone.
She sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose. "Farlan and I are in the kitchen." With that she hung up. "He's such a brat when he's grumpy."
Levi opened his mouth to say something but the line went dead. He squeezed the phone in his hand as hard as he dared. She got away with way too much. He didn't feel grateful, though, he felt stupid. It was so obvious Eren and that Jean kid were dating, or at least wanted to. Levi had no right to butt into it either. He was just someone with a slightly creepy crush on the brunette, after all this was the first time they'd actually talked. He'd never even known his name before an hour ago.
Without hesitating he stormed back into the kitchen, his expression emotionless but slightly dark. "Isabel you little shit... I'm ready to go home." He told her quietly, not paying any attention to anyone else. "I was going to make sure you weren't doing something stupid before I left."
Eren watched as Levi stormed into the kitchen, not looking amused at all and like he was two seconds from murdering someone. Jean and Farlan stopped what they were doing as Levi entered the kitchen. He muttered something to Isabel who gave him a displeased look, following with a pleading look.
"Oh, hey, Levi, Jean is spending the night at our place since we have practice together." Eren raised an eyebrow at Jean who shrugged and then he looked at Levi who looked a little confused and then even more irritated.
"Hey, Jean can I talk to you?" Eren asked, not giving the other boy a choice as he grabbed his arm and pulled him outside, shutting the door and leaving the three inside the kitchen.
Levi was looking at Eren like “why should I even care?” and turned back towards Isabel as soon as they left the kitchen. He didn't care that Farlan was in there with them as he spoke, he was sure Isabel had blabbed to his brother about his thoughts.
"What. The. Fuck. He has a fucking boyfriend, Isabel. You know I had my eye on him, so what is this shit all about?" He snapped, harsher than he had been intending to.
"What's wrong?" Jean asked, but Eren wasn't entirely sure why he had pulled Jean out. There was something about Levi's aura that said he didn't like Jean.
"Have you ever spoken to Levi before?" He asked hesitantly.
"No?" Jean's eyebrows furrowed together in confusion. "Are you sure you're okay? You look upset."
"I don't know. I didn't really have a reason to pull you out here?" He said in a question more than a statement and he sighed, running a hand through his hair. "Just... be nice. You have a tendency to be an asshole sometimes." Jean rolled his eyes and Eren punched his arm. "You do." He wrapped his arms around Jean in a hug, the other boy doing the same thing.
"This is random."
"Shut it, it’s cold." Eren couldn't help but smile a little as he felt Jean return the hug and they stood there for a moment before pulling away.
Isabel glared back, unfazed by Levi's glare. She was immune to it by now. "I thought it would be nice for you to actually talk to him and do something rather than ogling him from afar like a creep." She snapped. "Besides, he isn't dating anyone. Is he?" Isabel looked over at Farlan, as if for confirmation.
"I—," Levi began but he stopped talking as the door opened abruptly and Eren and Jean returned. He stood there, all of them towering over him and crossed his arms indignantly.
Eren smiled. "Sorry about that. It was kind of abrupt. Anyways, I have to head back before Mikasa murders my ass. Isabel, you want to come with? I think Sasha is back at her dorm already. She had to go back early."
"Oh, uh, yeah. Sure. Levi you want to come with? Or are you just going to head straight home? Pretty sure that Jean and Farlan are staying until it ends. Which," she gave them a pointed look, "you shouldn't because you have practice and if Coach Pixis finds out, you're dead." Farlan rolled his eyes, shifting the ball from one arm to the other.
"We probably should leave. She has a point," Jean defended, not leaving Eren's side and Farlan sighed. They walked out together, Jean not leaving Eren's side as he crossed his arms when they hit the outside, talking with Isabel. Isabel took a couple steps over to Farlan to give him a hug before she kissed his cheek. Jean and Eren exchanged a couple words, Eren laughing and they did their handshake from the tenth grade before Jean ruffled his hair, his fingers running through Eren's hair easily and he began walking back with Farlan and Levi.
Levi said few words during it all, not able to meet Eren's eyes. He felt like a stupid child with a dumb crush. He knew better, he knew he shouldn't like this boy. He had only just met him, he shouldn't care that Eren had a boyfriend. He shouldn't care that his boyfriend was some dumb gay soccer playing twink. He walked between Farlan and Jean, hands stuck into his pockets.
The walk was silent between Isabel and Eren. She was quieter than usual. Well, he thought that until she opened her mouth, huffing a sigh before saying something. "So, like, are you and Jean... are you guys like, dating?" She asked. Eren felt his face go flush as he looked over at Isabel. She had a set look of concentration on her face, looking forward while her arms crossed over her chest.
He opened his mouth only to close it again. "No," he said after a moment. "No, we're not. Neither of us are dating anyone at the moment. I mean... we did back in high school? Well, kind of? We were in high school. I don't think it counted. But at the moment, no, we're not. Why do you ask?"
Isabel pursed her lips thoughtfully. Levi could be such a drama queen. Eren and Jean weren't even dating. She should have known Levi would take their relationship and turn it into something it wasn't, simply because he was scared to approach someone out of the blue and attempt to get close to them. He would never admit he was scared, but Isabel knew him well enough. Too well, sometimes.
"No particular reason. I was just curious." Isabel remarked with a small smile on her face.
Farlan and Jean were in the small dorm kitchen making the three of them some food, Jean was perched in a chair while Farlan stood watching over the mac and cheese on the stove. "I'm curious... are you and Eren dating?" Farlan asked out of nowhere and Jean fidgeted a little, surprised by the sudden question.
"Umm... no? It's complicated I guess. I mean, no we aren't dating right now. We dated in high school... but not right now." He replied, a blush falling across his cheeks.
Levi leaned back quietly against the wall just outside where he was hiding from the two boys in the kitchen, running a hand through his black uppercut. They weren't even dating, not technically. Maybe Levi did have a shot. Just maybe.
