Pawing the ground impatiently, your horse rears its head and takes a couple of steps back when Levi approaches him. The large animal snorts, nostrils flaring when the short man in front of him reaches around his neck to grab the reins.

You knew better than to say anything – what Levi wanted, he did. No words necessary. Frustrating as it may be, you knew it was best not to get on his nerves this early in the morning, especially considering the way he snapped at your squad leader earlier when the man tried to splash a bucket of water on him. Granted, he got you and Isabel – not that you were proud of that or anything – but you were pretty sure that whatever Levi dished Flagon this morning was more than enough for the three of you combined. Actually, scratch that. Levi yelled at him enough for the entire legion, and even then, you weren't sure just the legion covered it.

But whatever.

Flagon’s learned his lesson.

Guiding your white steed over to his black one, you see Isabel and Farlan already mounted on their horses, the former holding an extra pair of reins. She tosses them to Levi the minute she sees him and he mounts the horse with ease, ushering it towards you so that your horses and bodies are parallel but facing each other.

“Stay close,” is all he says, and you raise an eyebrow. Was he still wary or Erwin or was there something else going on? You glance at Isabel and Farlan out of the corner of your eye, but they’re chatting the way they normally would. You look at Levi and nod, but he makes no indication that he’s acknowledged you.

Shut up and go the fuck to sleep.

You’re reminded of the words he said to you on your first night together and almost roll your eyes. He hears everything but doesn’t show it. He’d be a wonderful gossiper had he been a bit more loose-lipped but what can you do? You can’t change Levi. Can anybody really change anybody, really?

“Hey,” Isabel’s voice catches your attention. “Whatcha smiling about [First]? It’s sorta creeping me out.”

You touch your lips embarrassedly. Did you really just smile out of the blue like that? Thinking of Levi? You’re pretty sure that your cheeks just turned even more red.

“Oh~” the younger whistles, wagging her eyebrows suggestively. “Did you and Brother do something last night that you’re not telling me about??”

“N-no!” you blurt. “No. Don’t make weird assumptions.” You turn your face away.

“Really?” You just know that Isabel’s looking at Levi, so you dare a glance too.

Impassive. I should have known.

“You brats! Get in line!” Your squad leader rides up, irritation etched on his features, no doubt from this morning considering that the sight of Levi makes his lips curl even more. But if Isabel can’t get a reaction out of the stone-faced male, what hopes does Flagon have?

“Hey, shorty! Did you hear me? Get. In. Fucking. Line!” He continues to try and egg Levi on, but it’s just not working. Even worse, he’s not obeying orders to begin with and at this rate, no one was going anywhere.

You sigh.

It’s your turn to be the hero.

Flagon opens his mouth to scream again, but you ride your horse in front of him so that you’re positioned between Levi and Flagon. Flagon’s glare switches over to you.

“Oh? Little Miss Innocent going to protect her boyfriend? What are you going to do? Make your horse kick me? Do it. I dare you.”

You were starting to get why Levi ignored this guy. Him and his half-baked insults. Reaching out, you finally get a reaction out of Levi. His eye moves to the corner to see what you’re doing. Fingers curling around the rein of his horse, you squeeze the thin rope and, using your upper teeth, press them to your bottom lip. A brief whistle and your horse reacts, taking a couple of steps forward. Levi’s horse’s ears perk up and taking the tug as a go-signal, runs level with your horse.

You hear Isabel let out a loud laugh behind you before hearing more hooves behind you. Flagon starts yelling, and when you look behind you, Isabel and Farlan are riding close to your and Levi’s tails.

When you and Isabel make eye contact, her eyes sparkle and she urges her horse to get slightly ahead of Farlan’s so that you can hear her better.

“Now I’m really curious about what you and Brother did last night!”
