An hour has passed, and the pair haven't had a conversation that lasted longer than a rain drop. The Rain continues its journey from the silver linen sky, hissing at each drop on pavement and bushes. Silence has made its way for quite some time now. Eren's gaze still remained deplorably on the dry, ashen pavement his feet rest on, and Jean had begun racing through his mind once more. The brunette's pattern of deep breathing and blurry vision erupted, but holding it back couldn't help. A tear rolled down to the boy's chin, shell-shocked of what has happened earlier.

Laying his beer down, the raven-haired man could see from the corner of his eye, tears exiting from the boy's. His tears came much slower than the Rain.

"What's wrong, Eren?" Levi nonchalantly questioned, eyes remaining at the portrait of bushes, trees, and grass, being blotted by rain.

The brunette realizes his tears and the heavy ends of his lips, and pats himself dry with the shoulder of Levi's blazer.

"H-hey! Not on tha-Nevermind…" Levi stammered, remembering of what he concluded. Something may of seriously happened to this boy, obstructing his thoughts of moving foward.

"Nothing, Sens- "

"Levi…" Eren whispered hesitantly. It felt so strange to say his teachers name outside of school.

"I see." said the man.

The rain settled to its last drop. Without warning, Levi raises and stands, hanging the bag of alcohol next to his knee.

"Hang dry the coat." Levi commanded, making his way out of the hut.

Before being capable of saying anything, the brunette's flushed with confusion of what he should do before the raven-haired man gets too far in the distance.

"Hang dry…the coat?" he thought.

Eren's arms cross, hands gripping the collar of the charcoal black blazer.

"Smells…so good."

"Eren!" Mikasa squalled

"Are you alright? Are you hurt? What's this? I heard about Jea-"

"Mikasa, please." Eren muttered while taking off his shoes, obstructing the barrage of questions.

"I'm. I'm sorry. There's a change of clothes on your-" But Eren was already heading to his room, coat still latched on his shoulders.

Eren passes by his door and lays his bag by the entryway. He stands in his room for a momentary of time, and then unhooks the blazer and hangs it on his closet door, just like Levi had asked him.

"I'll return it to him tomorrow." The boy thought. "Levi…" Eren whispered petting the medium-sized blazer's sleeve.

He looks over to his bed, and sees a cube pile of folded pajamas. The brunette unbuckles his pants, unbuttons his shirt, and pulls down his briefs, followed by sweat pants coming up his thin legs. He pulls the white long sleeve below his sharp chin, and crawls each arm through the sleeves. The brunette then gathers himself in bed, bundling the blankets over him. The knocks against his windows had stopped, but balls of light begin floating beneath the skyline. His eyes begin to heavy, staring at the little dancing balls of light, but before falling asleep, a name came across his thoughts.

"Jean."

The brunette slouches up, his vision focusing onto his sister standing over his bedside.

"I told mom and dad, before they left for work, that you aren't feeling so well, and that's why you missed dinner last night."

"Feel better, okay? I have to go, and I'll deal with that bastard."

"Mikasa." Eren provoked, obstructing the thought of that.

"It's fine. Please don't."

Sighing, she nods her head in agreement to her little brother's request. Mikasa makes her way out of the bedroom and bids farewell before shutting the door behind her. Her footsteps bellowed down the stairs into Eren's doorway, until becoming phantomed as she leaves the house.

Eren pulls his body more forward off the bed, a tear rolling down his cheek.

"I dreamnt of you, haven't I?" He questioned.

Turning his head to his window, he can the sun being sheathed by the clouds.

Immediately after his ears arouse to the sound of being alone, Eren gets dressed in his casual wear and bundles the blazer into his school bag. Storming the stairs, sliding each foot into a pair of sneakers, and heading out the door. The boy's running against head wind, pushing the strands of brown that made a mass of brunette hair. His pace quickened at the sight of a park's entrance getting closer. The boy's thin arms pumped harder, his bag bumping against his back with each few strides. Levi's name kept replaying itself in the boy's mind while he entered the park. He further cadenced down the runway of pavement until coming to a halt when he reached the same hut, the same bench, the same dry place where they met. Everything surrounding it is still damp from yesterday's storm, and no grievous rain proceeded onto Eren's shoulders. The same portrait of a raven-haired man with his beers, remains from yesterday.

"Levi!" The brunette panted, obstructing the man's alarming shout.

Taking his turn, Levi stands up shocked. "Eren! Aren't you suppose to be in school?-"

Questions and answers were cut off with a hug, arms loops around each others backside, exchanging smiles with one another.

"I guess we're both hurt pretty bad, huh?" Eren suggested.

"Yeah…" Continued Levi.

"Tell me Eren," Gesturing the boy to let go of his squeeze around the man. "What happ-"

Reaching inside Eren's bag, the boy brings out a balled up coat, breathing heavily through his nose. "Levi, here."

"What happened?!" The man demanded.

A smile cracked the boy's blushing cheeks, holding up the wrinkled, medium-sized, charcoal blazer.

"Keep it." Levi sighing a proclaim, pushing the ball away with the palm of his hands, before immediately being squeezed again by the boy's arms, feeling Eren's warm, heavy breaths against his neck..

"Thank you, Levi." Eren whispered.

Levi's eye lids flinched back, widening his eyes, before they sealed, giving the boy an unconscious smile of gratitude. Words echoe into his ears

"Thank you." The boy repeated. The smell of booze mixed with the same scent of cheap cologne entered the canals of his nose.

"You can stop that. Sit down." Levi dictated, motioning the boy back into the same spot he sat the day before.

Eren sits down next to the same sac of beer he saw yesterday. As he did before, the man settles himself on the other side, grabbing his before maneuvering himself comfortably on the metallic, spray-painted, black seat. After a sip of beer, Levi leans his elbows above his knees, and he dares to pop the question.

"Tell me the truth Eren."

"About?"

"You know what I'm talking about."

The boy's eyes reach down the same pavement his feet tapped on yesterday. The birds chirping represented each second of Levi waiting anxiously for Eren's answer.

"Jean."

"Jean?" Levi asked. "What about him?"

"We…Broke up."

The man's eyes of concern began smiling. A long, lengthy breath came from his sharp, pale nose, before the chain of silence broke from the cans of beer shocking against the pavement beneath them, as Levi's hands reach over and caressing on the boy's soft, damp, hairless cheeks. Eren's face of confusion and slit-open lips soon became flushed, when the man's face inches closer. Inches became centimeters until the memories of Jean and Erwin were sealed in the back of their minds with a kiss.

Eren's tan face became painted with red, and his red-pounded eyes shut themselves as the man tilted his head, reaching deeper inside the boy's mouth. His arms scout the air and find themselves around Levi's back.

"He's so small…" The boy's mind viewed, locking the hug by intertwining his fingers.

Pulling away, the boy gasped, "Levi, what are we doing." before being shut up-ed with another lock of the man's lips. The keys to both Jean and Erwin were thrown into the abyss of their minds, for a new key has been forged between them.

"I don't know." Whispered the man, pulling back.

"I love you, Levi." Eren rustled with wind, passing in the gap between their wet lips.

Time seemed so slow, the chirps of birds became deaf to both of them, and the river has lost its melody as their lips find their way to each other again.

Levi let go of Eren's mouth, and peaked his inside the boy's ears. "Thank you for giving me a new ground to walk on."

"Thank you, Levi." Eren repeated after the man.

Both were hurt, but finding each other, they became each other's solace, giving each other a new ground to stand.

They spend the rest of their day off at the park, exchanging gestures of passion to each other, and filling the space between them by locking each others hands.

"I love you." The pair thought separately.

The sac of beer was left behind.
