Levi stared at the grey sky as he felt rain drops fall onto his face. It had to rain today of all days, and he had forgotten his damn umbrella. He began to walk towards his apartment, dreading what awaited him when he got there. As he neared, the rain got heavier, soaking him. He couldn't even feel the cold, his mind was much too preoccupied with how he was going to tell Eren what he needed to tell him.

He finally arrived at their door, finding it unlocked like always. He sighed as he pushed his way in, setting his bag down and removing his shoes, he heard singing coming from the kitchen. He slowly walked down the hall and rounded the corner, eyeing his boyfriend swaying his hips to an unheard song. Eren was whispering the words, too low for Levi to hear. He cleared his throat, making Eren jump as he was bending over to pull something out of the oven.

"Oh! Levi, you scared me," Eren said with a smile.

Levi mumbled a 'sorry' and sat down at the counter.

"You said there was something you needed to talk to me about," Eren questioned as he pulled a casserole dish out of the oven, he had cooked Levi's favorite. Levi nodded and said quietly, "after dinner."Eren served dinner and they began to eat. Eren did most of the talking, telling Levi about the guy at the grocery store who had asked him on a date. Eren laughed aloud and said "he kind of had the face of a horse", and took another sip of his wine. Levi added the occasional 'oh, really' and 'ah' here and there, but was otherwise quiet.

Eren could sense that something was bothering Levi, so he quickly finished his dinner, and waited for his boyfriend to finish; he cleaned the dishes and put everything away. He walked back into the dining room and saw Levi was still sitting.""Levi, please talk to me. What's wrong?"Levi looked up into teal eyes, which were beginning to brim with tears. Eren could always sense emotional distress in others, especially in Levi. Even when they first met, Eren was seven and Levi was fourteen, Eren could often tell when there was something bothering Levi. It was one of the many things that had drawn the older business man to the younger art student."

Eren, sit down please", Levi asked. The younger man sat down in the chair next to Levi's, concern and worry painting his features. Levi sighed, and looked into Eren's eyes. After all this time to prepare, he still was nowhere near looked up at Eren, locking eyes with the brunette.

"I want to break up."
