"Levi," I called from my place on the beanbag. I was playing Flappy Bird on my phone and cursed loudly when the bird hit his stupid, giant beak again on the Mario pipe thingy. What an idiot.

"What?" I heard Levi answer, voice sounding weird.

I looked up from my phone to see that Levi was facing away from me, cheek pressed against his pillows. "Nothing," I replied, combing a hand through my hair before tapping the screen to play again.

"Idiot," was the retort.

After dying for six straight rounds, and scores ranging from one to four, I called him again.

"What?" This time, Rivaille slightly turned to look at me. "If you're hungry, I have some kiwis in my fridge, but I'm not getting them for you."

I just looked at him but didn't answer. After a few awkward seconds of just looking at each other, I dropped my gaze to play with the phone again. Levi groaned.

"Levi?"

"Jesus fucking Christ, what is it?" The raven-haired man snapped, just looking over his shoulder at me.

"I think I might be in love with you," I murmured. There was no point in beating around the bush now, with Levi sounding irritated. He could easily beat up my ass, in ways that I didn't exactly find appealing.

Rivaille rolled onto his side so he was properly looking at me, face betraying a mix of mild shock and confusion. "What?"

"I think I might be in love," I repeated, tucking my phone away to have something to do with my hands instead of just fidgeting around with them.

"With me." It sounded more like a statement than a question.

"With you," I agreed, nodding a few times, more to myself than to him.

After a good one to two minutes of just staring at me, probably analyzing just want the heck I was up to, he finally said, "Eren, you're straight."

Well, didn't that just sound like such a dumb thing for Levi to say, considering that Levi's pretty smart and he rarely says things even remotely close to dumb. He always sounded sure, and… well, smart, and now he just sounded dumb with all the repeating and stating of the obvious. Maybe he was doing marijuana behind my back.

"Yeah, I thought I was. Maybe I really was, but maybe not anymore?" I suggested, expecting Levi to pick out an answer from that, and maybe explain just what was going on because he was the genius here. I tried to think back, to try and figure out or remember the exact time when my hormones just decided to go on gay alert, and inadvertently thought back to the faithful day…

The faithful day of April first, the day that Levi made a joke about his height and the day that I got my heart broken. Not for the first time, but it was still a heartbreak, nonetheless.

"Jeager, please, just spare me the pranks. I already have the biggest practical joke of all time; my height," Levi had said upon opening the door to our shared apartment, in his usual monotone.

It had shocked me then because one, Levi never acknowledges that fact the he might just be a bit (okay, maybe not just a bit) vertically challenged and two, he never tolerates height jokes around him, let alone makes one himself. I could had only imagined how much forcing he'd had to do with his inner self to execute that joke, and maybe even had went as far as to prepare some handy tissue rolls for when the waterworks erupt.

Although very much honored that Levi had done such a huge thing (involving his very small height) in a vain attempt at trying to make me laugh, I'd still felt like it would have been better if the others had been there to serve as a larger audience, because that joke would've had made them laugh so hard that they'd cry.

I had been sure of this because, after staring at Levi like he'd had grown an extra head with a few more extra things, I'd burst into a laughing fit, which had eventually turned into a not-so-manly hysterical crying episode, because I'd thought I had every right to cry, thinking that I had just received the biggest practical joke of my life: Annie breaking up with me on April Fool's, which of course the very intellectual me had interpreted as an April Fool's joke, and me finding out that Annie was actually pretty serious, as serious as Levi when he takes a shit (not that I would know about that, but still).

And there couldn't have possibly been anything worse than that, right? Oh, just throw in my sister into the equation, the apparent reason as to why Annie'd figured out that she wasn't the straightest straw in the broom.

And because I'd had a perfectly legit reason to, I had taken the opportunity to pathetically cry on Levi's shoulder, despite it being a bit difficult because of the height gap that I didn't dare complain about, and he'd ushered me to his room. I had heard him wince a few times then, clearly dreading the mess of snot mixed with tears that would surely stick to his shirt. That might have egged me on to cry a bit harder.

"Do you even understand me?" I had demanded in between attempts to force some air into my lungs. "I was pranked, but I wasn't. I was laughing," deep breath, "because I thought it was actually a good prank, you know? So how should I feel after finding out that I was laughing at myself, after getting dumped?"

Rivaille had shoved a handful of tissue in my face, particularly the nose area, which meant that he'd been disgusted by how I had looked. "Listen, brat. If you think that that's the biggest April Fool's practical joke of all time, then I would like to kindly remind you of my parents, who got me as God's very own practical joke on them. How awesomely tragic is that?"

The funny thing about that was the fact Rivaille's the atheist of the atheists, and that'd had me laughing a bit.

The not so funny part about that was the fact that both Levi's parents were dead, and I'd just had to remind him of that.

"Maybe that was his way of saying sorry," he'd said, shrugging.

"You're going to hell for that." Cue for some gross nose-blowing that cut off Levi's blasphemous attempts at humor.

My head snapped up when my brain registered that my name was being called in real time, and looked over to see Levi looking at me with a bored and slightly annoyed expression, before getting up into a sitting position on his bed, slightly leaning against the pillows he stacked up behind him.

"Come here," he told me, beckoning me with his hand. I felt my muscles tense a bit, but got up walked away from the comfort of the borrowed beanbag, walking the small distance to stand by his bed and lean down a little towards him. The hand that was gesturing for me earlier now clamped down on the back of my neck, pulling me down to meet lips with him.

It lasted for one second. Two. Three. Then it was over.

He pulled back and looked at me, analyzing again. "How did you feel about that?"

I blinked once. Twice. Thrice. I felt my face slightly heat up and I told him how I honestly felt, because if honesty really is the best policy, then now would be the perfect time to practice it.

"More," I breathed out.

I leaned in for another kiss, followed by another, and another, and would have dived in for more if I didn't feel hands on my shoulders, keeping me in place. I opened my eyes and braced myself for whatever might come next.

"You're an idiot."

Well, that went better than expected.

And Levi's obviously not trying to push me away.

So why not straddle and sit on him? Oops, I slipped on nothing, silly me. But isn't this quite comfortable? Pair that with a wink and you get a slutty Eren Jaeger at your service.

I studied his face, still sporting its usual mask of composure, but the slight bob of his adam's apple as he swallowed gave me hope that this wasn't entirely a lost cause.

If you can break a bone, you can certainly bend some straight out of him, the little devil inside my head told me.

Leave him the fuck alone, Jaeger, you don't fuck friends, the angel reminded me.

You don't fuck friends. Yeah, that certainly was a rule. Especially not your best friend.

Well, you're also not supposed to kiss them.

I shook my head, willing the crazy things to go away, which earned me a raised eyebrow from Levi.

"I'm sorry," I said, not liking how my voice dropped to a near whisper. I didn't know if I was sorry for kissing him, or for suddenly shaking my head, or just sorry for everything in general, like the national debt.

Levi didn't remove his hands, his expression unreadable. "You didn't answer the question."

"Is it important?" Not like you're not going to kick my ass out any time soon.

Levi rolled his eyes at me, letting go of my shoulders and scooting over to give me some room to sit on the edge of his bed.

"Well, it's surprisingly not that much different from kissing a girl."

"So you liked it because it wasn't much different from kissing a girl," Levi deadpanned.

"No! I liked it. I just liked it, not because of that," I disagreed, frowning at him.

"Then because of what? Because you think you like me? Because you think you can get a boner from making out with me?" he asked, crossing his arms over his chest. I couldn't answer because I really wasn't sure of things yet, except maybe for that one by the end.

Levi sighed, raking his bangs back with his hand. "You don't know if you're gay, Eren. Maybe it's just some sort of post-break up thing, and your hormones are just messing with you."

"Are you fucking kidding me? The break up happened six months ago, and I'm only now experiencing this? Stop doing drugs, Levi."

"Oh, so I'm the one doing drugs? Who the fuck just suddenly announces that they might be in love with me? Maybe you got it wrong, Eren. Maybe you just want to fuck me?"

Holy shit. He did not just say that. "Did you just call my love a fraud?"

"No, I just called you a teenager with raging hormones, who can't find a hole to put his dick in, so he preys on the next best thing there is to a vagina: an asshole."

I stood up, glaring at him. "Yeah, you are an asshole. And fuck you."

"Oh, I know you want to."

"Eren, can you just go home now?"

"Home is where Rivaille is," I answered grumpily.

"Obviously, your home isn't where Armin just wants to study in peace, without Eren being a twat and making all these whining noises," Armin said, sarcasm dripping out from every word.

"Jesus christ, Armin. You don't have to kick me out."

"Did Levi kick you out?" he finally asked.

"Fuck no! I removed myself, thank you very much." I huffed, feeling indignant.

Armin slapped a hand to his face, sitting down beside me on his couch. "Fine. Tell me what happened."

So I went and told him everything that happened that afternoon, complete with gestures and such.

"Maybe he has a reason to think that way," Armin chided.

"Absolutely not. I went and told him that I might be in love with him, and he dismisses it as teenage hormones?"

"Have you been looking at his ass lately?" he asked.

"What? No!"

"Have you accidentally walked in on him while he was showering?"

"No, Armin."

"Have you been jacking off to him—."

"Armin, please. I wasn't even thinking about anything sexual until he brought it up," I insisted, and it was the truth.

"He has every right to doubt you, Eren. We've known you for years, and we've known you as a straight male. You can't just suddenly tell him, the guy you used as a shoulder to cry on when your last straight relationship failed, that you're in love with him and expect him to believe just that."

"I said I might be in love with him," I tried, but I knew it was a weak defense.

"All the more reason to doubt you and your ulterior motives," Armin told me earnestly.

"Okay fine, I wasn't a raging homosexual before. Can't anybody just sit and think that maybe, just maybe, I just hadn't met a guy whom I felt my heart go doki doki for? Seriously? Just because I've only ever dated girls, it automatically means that I'm absolutely straight?"

Armin looked at me for a long time after my little outburst, mulling over my words.

"That… actually makes sense," he allowed.

"Why, thank you. That makes me so happy," I answered, not intending to be sarcastic but still coming off that way. "And while I'm at it, can I just point out that he kissed me first, despite knowing that I have some sort of yet-to-be defined romantic sentiment for him? That's like giving a druggie some good and expensive junk, letting him have a taste, and just leaving it there at arm's reach, totally available for the druggie to use. Would anyone refuse that sort of opportunity laid out in front of them? No, hence why I kissed him back."

"Your point being…?

"Why the fuck did he have to kiss me, if he's gonna act all snobbish and Eren you're just horny after it?"

Armin shrugged. "Maybe he's not really as opposed to dating you as he's letting on? It is unfair for him if you just use him to find out which team you really want to bat in, and maybe he just doesn't want that sort of thing to happen to him."

"It's not like I'm going to use him as a test-fuck. As far as I know, he's a lot straighter than me, so maybe it'll be the other way around." I looked at Armin and realized that he was taking this all too lightly. "I'm surprised that you don't seem to be surprised at all."

Armin snorted. "The only thing I'm surprised about is that you're surprised that Levi would react that way."

"Don't even dare tell Mikasa yet, if you still want both me and Levi alive for the next few weeks."

I returned to the apartment that day feeling a bit less angrier with Levi. He came out from his room after a couple of minutes passed since I first called him.

"We need to talk."

"Do we?" He plopped down on the couch, draping his arm on its backrest.

"First, I am not just after your body."

He raised an eyebrow at this, eyes boring into mine.

"It is not an immediate desire," I explained, praising myself for my wonderful way of phrasing it.

"Isn't that comforting to know," He deadpanned, sounding the least bit impressed.

I groaned and sat down on the couch as well, near enough for a quick maneuver to pin him down (if he doesn't punch me straight in the face), but far enough to keep from invading his personal space.

I looked over to him, and said, "We should try it out."

He sighed, like I just uttered exactly what he was waiting for. "No, Eren, I will not be used to—."

"No, no. Let's try it out for you," I said, cutting him off.

This took him slightly by surprise. "Excuse me?"

"I want us to try it out so you'll know if you're comfortable with a guy," I explained, slowly bringing my hands up in defense.

Levi scoffed. "Right, Eren. Turn it around so I'll be the one to you use you as a test fuck. That's right."

"No, I swear I already know I'm okay with doing it with a guy—," I tried to assure him, but he was having none of it.

"You're okay with fucking a guy, Eren. Are you okay with being butt fucked by a guy?"

I gulped down nothing. "I'm okay with the idea of being fucked by you, Levi." After this statement left my mouth, I immediately felt my face burning up, but I forced myself not to break the eye contact.

Silence settled between us, and I was afraid that I might have royally fucked it up this time. I watched as Levi looked away and my heart sank, until I observed him closer. The tenseness of his shoulders faded away and his face looked slightly open.

"Levi…" I called, hesitantly closing the distance between us. "Look at me."

He reluctantly turned his head back, and I was more than shocked to see that there were no traces of his earlier resentment and annoyance with me on his face. He just looked cautious and doubting.

"Levi. Please, at least let's give it a try. I know I'm risking a lot of things here, but please…" As I said this, I ever so slowly started pushing him back until he was on his back on the couch, looking up at me.

When Levi didn't try to push me off, I knew I had to act and I had to act fast. I gingerly took his face in my hands and claimed his lips again. This time, I was able to concentrate on the actual feel of them; soft and slightly cold. I kept kissing him, each kiss outlasting the one before it. Soon, it was a mess of tongue and teeth biting on lips, mostly from my part.

Levi was still playing the passive role, kissing back but not being aggressive. I moaned into his mouth and felt him kiss back with a little more force. Still, he was being 'neutral', which meant that whatever happened, I would be the one held responsible and it would all be my fault.

So be it.

I broke away from his mouth to trail kisses down to his throat. I licked at the exposed skin and felt him shudder.

"Don't bite and don't leave any marks," Levi warned.

Damn it, that was what I was planning to do.

My hands travelled down, past his shoulders, and started rubbing on his sides. I let a hand slip under the crisp shirt he was wearing, running my hand along the perfect planes of his stomach. Using my other hand, I slowly started unbuttoning his shirt. When I was done with this task, I pulled back and flung his shirt open, revealing his bare chest.

There were two things that went through my mind in that moment; holy fucking shit what a hottie and holy fucking shit we're both hard. I realized the latter because my erection was pressed into his, and I bit my lip, not being able to stop myself from grinding down on him.

The first hump felt heavenly and I ended up repeating it again and again in a slow and steady pace, rubbing our clothed erections together. I saw Levi lick his lips and I stopped my ministrations to get up a bit to open my fly and pull down my pants. I discarded them on the floor and soon, Levi's followed.

I leaned back, sitting on his strong thighs, and continued the deed of dry humping him. I saw that pink tongue dart out again to wet his lips and I knew, from that and from how hard he was now, that he was enjoying this.

"Levi, Levi, Levi," I chanted out, making him groan. I started feeling the strain on my legs and slowed down a bit.

Levi growled underneath me, grabbing my ass and promptly shoving me back and forth on his clothed dick. I gasped and a moan escaped my lips. Levi would pull me in far enough that his member would slide between the crack in my ass.

He pushed me back and our positions were reversed, with him leaning over me and me staring up at him. His eyes were clouded with lust and I would have smirked if I wasn't so turned on.

Levi roughly pulled off my boxers and tossed them on the floor. He parted my legs and slid in between them, taking my now fully exposed hard on in his hands and smearing the precum from the tip to the shaft. I didn't have enough time to bite down a loud moan as his mouth engulfed me.

He looked up at me as I felt his tongue swirl around the swollen head of my cock, his eyes willing me to stare back. I grabbed his hair, urging him to take in more. He obliged and soon, he was bobbing his head up and down, holding down my hips to prevent me from bucking into his mouth.

With a loud pop, he pulled back and started rummaging through a drawer. I felt my heart skip a beat at the sight of the lube and condom in his hand.

I silently watched as he coated a finger with lube before it was being pressed against my entrance. "This might feel uncomfortable, but you'll feel good soon enough," he said, before the finger was pushed up my ass, past the tight ring of protective muscle, and I held back a whimper.

"Shh," he soothed, pulling back his finger only to push back in and bury it deeper. This went on until I felt his knuckle bump against my ass cheeks. I didn't notice him lubing up a second finger until he pulled back the first digit and when it came back in, it doubled in size. I yelped and he used his free hand to stroke and pump my now only semi-hard cock again.

He was thrusting his finger back and forth and I didn't know where to concentrate. One moment I was moaning from the attention my length was receiving, the next thing I knew I was throwing my head back because, "Fuck, what was that?"

"Found the spot," Levi simply said and I heard a smirk in his voice. He kept hitting that spot and I was going completely hard again, even harder than before. I didn't even notice that there were three fingers inside me because it just felt so good.

"Levi," I gasped out. "Stop. I'm ready. I want you now."

He fucked me with his fingers a few more times before he pulled them out. I whined, but he was already dumping his boxers down and jesus fucking christ.

"Levi I don't think you're going to fit," I told him, staring at his cock as he ripped the condom open and rolled it on. Forget his height, Levi was huge.

"Thank you, Eren. I needed that boost to my ego."

He was taking it as a compliment but I was generally concerned for my well being. It must have shown on my face because he was sighing, pulling my chin up so I looked at his face.

"You'll be fine," he assured me, giving my lips an open mouthed kiss.

He pulled back and poured lube over his dick and I gulped down nothing again. It's okay, I can take that in. He parted my legs further and he was positioning himself by the entrance.

The head slowly went in and I knew that no, I can't take that it.

I screwed my mouth and my eyes shut as he inched forward until he was all the way in. "Eren, are you okay?"

I opened my eyes to look at him. "You're too fucking big, you idiot."

A grin broke across his face and he hummed, lifting my legs up and holding on to them. He didn't give me much of a warning as he pulled back and slammed himself all the way in.

I was lost in the feelings of both pain and pleasure, not used to being stretched so much but he kept hitting that damn thing inside me and I was moaning and panting under him.

His pace turned torturously slow as I started enjoying it more and I glared at him. "Stop… being a tease, fuck…"

He kept his thrusts slow and shallow, watching me with his hazy eyes. "Beg for it, Eren."

I clamped my mouth shut, and then he stilled. "Fuck, Levi! Fuck me faster and harder, please!"

He grinned before saying, "My pleasure." The hands that were holding my thighs gripped harder and I knew it was going to leave bruises there. He rutted into me faster, hitting the sensitive bundle of nerves inside me harder.

I was a moaning mess, panting like crazy and dragging blunt fingers down his back. It took a few more thrusts and I felt something tighten in my stomach, the telltale sign that I was going to lose it real soon now.

I pulled him down and kissed him on the mouth, our tongues fighting for dominance and then he pulled back and he was sucking on my neck and one of his hands managed to slip down and was pumping my cock in time with his thrusts and I couldn't take it anymore and came, screaming out his name as my orgasm shook my body. It took him a few more thrusts and he came as well, my own name leaving his lips as he rode out his release.

He pulled out and removed the condom, tying it up before letting it fall on the floor. Levi collapsed on top of me, and we lay there, feeling completely spent. I felt him nuzzling his head into my shirt and his hands clinging to me.

My mind was still foggy from the afterglow of the amazing orgasm I just had, one that wasn't brought upon by my own hands. Nothing seemed clear at first, but as I gradually came down from the high that the orgasm induced, I became painfully aware of three things.

First, Levi wasn't as straight as he seemed to be. Second, there was a part of him -and I didn't know how big or strong that part was or how long it would last- that became all cuddly and sweet after sex. And third, I was unmistakably and majestically gay (for him, at least).

"You tricked me, didn't you?" I accused, once we were cleaned up and I was seated on the couch, my back sore as hell. "You knew you were…"

"When did I ever say that I was straight?" he asked. His face was carefully blank but there was a twinkle in his eyes.

I groaned, dropping my face into my palms. "At least tell me that we're dating now, not just one-time fuck buddies or something."

He leaned in, his breath hot on my ear, and patted my sore back. He whispered, "Round two when you're ready, love."

A week after the incident, I got the call from Mikasa, and I made the mistake of asking Levi to put it on speaker because I was too busy playing Battle in Megaville.

"Eren," her voice came out from my phone. "I'm disappointed that I had to find out from Armin about your newly discovered sexuality and the reason why you discovered it in the first place."

My jaw dropped, and I was vaguely aware that I was losing the battle as Mikasa continued to give me the sex talk. "Is Levi topping? Jesus, Eren, just make sure you're being safe. Use condoms, okay? Out of all the things I'm going to hear, I kept hearing Jean saying that you're gay and that Levi turned you gay and—."

Mikasa kept rambling, but I was looking at Levi who was laughing quietly to himself.

I decided that I was so going to kill that blonde Dora and his horse of a boyfriend.

A/N: If you got the Twilight reference, then I don't know if that's good news or bad news.
