April Rain Showers Chapter 8

Eren stood in the doorway, inhaling deeply, he was finally home.
"Come on brat, I love standing in the doorway as much as the next guy but I'm sort of carrying some shit," the raven replied, a backpack slung on each shoulder. The brunette smirked and stood right where he was in front of the raven, looking behind him with a challenging look.

The raven narrowed his eyes at Eren and dropped the two backpacks he was carrying,"Alright I see how it's going to be."

Giving the brunette zero time to react, the raven placed a well aimed kick behind one of the brunette's knees, before Eren could hit the ground Levi quickly picked him up bridal style. The raven smirked down at his surprised lover in his arms, walking over to the couch to gently place the brunette down.

"You know for just getting out of the hospital and going through chemotherapy you have quite an attitude," the raven remarked, before turning on his heel and walking back out the door to grab the two backpacks he dropped.

Eren made himself comfortable, propping his feet up on the coffee table before replying,"You know you like it."

"Yeah, because it gives me a reason to beat the shit right out of you," the raven joked, kicking the door behind him before going off to the laundry room to wash the dirty clothes in the backpacks.

"You fucking sadist," the brunette called after his boyfriend.

"That's me, don't wear it out," the raven called back.

The brunette chuckled and shook his head, picking up the remote control, planning to rent a movie. Before they left, Erwin gave Eren some painkillers for his side, and Zofran for nausea from the chemotherapy, and god did the brunette feel wonderful. He never thought he'd be so thankful for drugs.

Eren suppressed a fan boy squeal, his eyes lighting up like a child's on Christmas morning. He finally knew what movie he wanted to rent. The brunette got up, on a mission to get some popcorn popped, some tea made (for Levi of course), and a couple of dr. pepper's for himself.

"How To Train Your Dragon 2? You mean we're going to watch a child's movie?" Levi questioned, making his way over to the brunette to help him carry said items over by the couch.

"Yeah, what's the matter with it?" Eren replied, sighing in relief as his boyfriend grabbed some items from his arms. The brunette was almost sure he wasn't going to make it over to the couch without dropping something that would no doubt cause a mess and a grumbling Levi.

"It's a child's show," Levi said, organizing the various items Eren picked out for said movie on the coffee table.

"So what? It's adorable and I want to watch it and since I was stuck in the hospital I get to choose what movie we are going to watch tonight," the brunette male said with a stubborn pout, arms crossed.

"I was stuck in the hospital to ya know," the raven replied, looking up at the brunette with a raised eyebrow.

"Yeah, but you were able to roam around if you wanted to, I was bedridden," Eren said with a mock glare, his head lifting up when he heard whistling coming from the kitchen. Levi's tea was ready. Before making his way to the kitchen, Eren made sure to take the remote control with him, just in case Levi would try to change the channel. The raven shot his lover a mock hurt look before sighing and settling himself on the couch, amusing himself by grouping items together on the coffee table while he waited for Eren.

In a few moments the brunette returned with an eye roll, setting down a cup of tea in front of his boyfriend and smacked his hands away from the items he was grouping together. The raven looked up into stern, carribean green eyes, inching his hands forward challengingly to the cans of pop he was organizing before the brunette walked in. The brunette raised an eyebrow, accepting the older males challenge. With cat-like reflexes the brunette grabbed the raven's hands and held them away from the coffee table to which the raven-haired man growled in irritation.

Levi felt his eye began to twitch, in a deep, almost satanic voice he said,"Let me go peasant....must...organize."

The brunette giggled at the older male, holding his hands with one hand, the brunette made a quick grab for the remote and started the movie. The raven hissed, trying to break free from the brunette's grip, he just had to move that can of Dr. Pepper to the small group of cans sitting on one side of the coffee table, then it would be perfect. The older male yelped when he was pulled into his brat's arms, his pale, cold cheek, almost uncomfortably pressed up against Eren's which was rather warm. Levi rolled his eyes in annoyance, especially when Eren started to rub against his head affectionately. In all honesty though, the raven didn't mind and happily sat half on the couch and half on Eren's lap for at least half of the movie.

Eren saw from the corner of his eye that Levi was beginning to nod off, with a smile he pulled Levi fully on his lap to which Levi protested half heartedly that he didn't want to put any pressure on his abdomen. With a roll of his eyes, the brunette forced Levi's head to lay back on his shoulder, multi-tasking between watching the movie and running his fingers through the raven's hair.

After a few minutes Levi began to complain childishly, "Stop it Eren your going to end up making me falling asleep."

"Maybe that's the plan," Eren replied with a mischevious smirk.

"That's a stupid plan," the raven replied, trying to pull away from the brunette stubbornly.

The brunette frowned stubbornly in reply and forced the other to lay back down to continue his assault.

"Fuck you."

"You'd like that wouldn't you," the brunette replied with a shit eating grin.

The raven simply groaned tiredly in reply and closed his eyes, nuzzling into the warmth that was his brat and sighing in content as slender fingers slowly combedhrough his hair. He didn't plan on sleeping, he planned on pretending to sleep, but of course his body betrayed him and before he knew it he was drifting into unconsciousness. Once the movie was over the brunette looked down at the older man, a small smile lighting up his features as he watched the raven sleep peacefully. As gentle as possible, so as not to wake Levi, he brushed his thumb over the dark bags under his lover's eyes. Levi never slept well in the first place, but since Eren was told he had cancer, the raven seemed much more of an insomniac than usual.

With a sigh a few moments to prepare, Eren lifted the raven into his arms, ignoring his doctor's warning of not lifting anything heavier then a few pounds. He quietly, but quickly made his way to their bedroom, gently depositing the raven on the bed before checking his stiches, sighing in relief when he saw that his wound was still sewn shut. Eren froze in his tracks when he heard Levi groan and turn over on the bed, the brunette hoped to god he wouldn't wake up. If Levi woke up there was a 95% chance that he wouldn't go back to sleep, the brunette could recount countless nights where his lover was awakened by nightmares and no matter how much the brunette persuaded, the raven would not go back to sleep. After being frozen for almost a minute, the raven's breathing returned to normal and Eren was allowed to sigh quietly in relief.

Eren walked over to the other side of the bed, crawling in beside his raven lover slowly and as carefully as possible. The raven sighed and turned over on his side to wrap an arm and a leg around Eren, ensuring the brunette would not be able to move for the rest of the night and if he did, Levi would make his life a miserable hell. Eren sighed in contentment and rested his chin on his raven's hair. The raven grunted satisfactorily and nuzzled into the other's chest. In a few moments the lover's were in a bliss filled sleep, a small smile was plastered acrossed the brunette's face, and a barely undetectable smile was seen on the raven's.

~

Levi was rudely interrupted from slumber by the sound of their stereo blaring some sort of song that Levi recognized but was too tired to try and remember the name of the song. Not only that but his brat was nowhere to be seen, usually the brat would have trouble breaking out of Levi's embrace, thus waking the older male up. Levi sighed and rolled his eyes, grabbing a pillow and dropping it on his head of hopes of suffocating the sound and going back to sleep. Of course that didn't happen. Once Levi was awake, he was awake. With a growl the raven got up and stormed downstairs with the expectation of yelling at the damn idiot who dared wake him from his slumber.

The raven froze in the door leading to the living room and immediately he had to suppress his laughter. There, standing before him, was Eren dancing around the living room with the stereo up full blast and a brush in his hand to act as a microphone. Eren continued to dance around clumsily, his eyes were closed so he didn't notice Levi watching him. Even though his movement was clumsy, he was a pretty good singer, Levi thought. He was singing Summertime Sadness, as for the composer, Levi had forgotten. Wasn't it La Del Rey something? He just knew it was a rather weird name. Either way the raven was entertained by his brat's antics, and to be honest the song did fit the season, by now it was almost the end of summer, pretty soon the days were going to be cold as shit and the leaves would be falling in shades of orange, red, and yellow. On the brightside, those shitty kids outside will be at school for most of the weekdays, which meant peace and quiet for the couple.

Eren turned around at that moment and froze, taking a few seconds to register the situation. His eyes widened and he immediately dropped the brush on the ground and ran over the stereo to turn it off, his face turning a dark red. Levi let an amused smirk crawl onto his face as he watched his lover blush like a tomato.

"I-I...s-sorry for waking you...." Eren stuttered, hugging himself self consciously.

"It's perfectly fine, I enjoyed watching the show," the raven smirked, smirking wider as Eren's face became impossibly more red.

"U-Uh....I'm sorry I didn't make breakfast...." the brunette said, hoping to change the subject.

Eren was crazy if he thought the raven was going to let go of this display that easily,"You know your not a bad singer brat, I was expecting broken glass and ears bleeding."

"U-Uhm....really?"

"Yeah, really."

The couple stood there awkwardly, or at least what Eren thought was awkward. Levi was the first to break the silence by making his way over to Eren and taking his hand, before walking over to the stereo to turn it on. Levi winced at the rap song that came on and quickly changed the song to something much better in his opinion. The raven smirked in satisfaction upon finding the song he was looking for, it was Whispers by Dave Baxter. Levi gently turned to Eren, taking both his hands and placing them on his hips before reaching up and wrapping his own arms around the younger man's neck.

Levi took the lead, slowly stepping side to side so the couple was moving in a slow circle. Eren blinked in surprise at Levi's act before smiling contentedly, willing to let the older man do as he pleased. The younger man's smile only brightened when he recognized the song and lyrics.

This one comes and this one goes

so here we are acrossed the road

in whispers, in whispers, you say let it go, let it go, home.

The raven stared into Caribbean green eyes intensely, which locked onto gray stormy eyes just as intensely. By this time, Levi was quietly singing the lyrics in the most angelic voice Eren had ever heard. It's been about three years and not once had Eren heard the other man sing. He sounded amazing.

Taking all our time we road, through this town where we grew old.

Our stories and pictures, you say let them go, let them go, home.

There were tears gathering in the brunette's eyes as Levi continued going along with the music, his gaze was still intense but they shown in love and adoration as the song continued. He whistled along to the song, not missing a single beat.

Oh, I have seen your beauty grow, where all this fades you shine in gold.

Our love will be legend....if we let it go, let it go, home.

When the song finally switched to another, Levi removed one of his hands from the other's neck to brush Eren's tears away.

"I'm sorry," Levi murmured, while he brushed away tears, he didn't mean to make Eren cry,"Was my voice really that terrible?"

"N-No, it was beautiful Levi, how come I've never heard you sing before?" the brunette sniffled.

Levi shrugged and replied," I don't know. I used to sing when my grandmother was still around which was years ago. She loved my voice, but after she died I chose not to sing anymore, although when I'm absolutely alone I sing to myself."

"Then why did you sing now?"

"I'm not really sure, it was probably just a spur of the moment thing," Levi sighed.

"Really? Last time I checked the amazing Levi never did things in the "spur of the moment" way," the brunette replied with a sly look.

"Believe it or not the amazing Levi can occasionally be very random, these are one of these moments," the raven replied, giving Eren a chaste kiss before walking off the kitchen to make the couple some breakfast. Eren followed him.

"What do you want for breakfast?" Levi asked without turning around.

"How about eggs, bacon, and toast?" the brunette replied, not at all feeling hungry.

"We've already had that this week."

"So what bacon is good."

Levi nodded respectfully at the young man before replying,"No argument there."

Eren watched as Levi went around the kitchen, pulling out a frying pan and grabbing bacon along with a carton of eggs. Feeling the urge that he should be doing something to, Eren busied himself by making the two of them some toast.

"How many eggs do you want?" Levi asked after a few minutes of silence, an egg posed over the frying pan.

"Just one."

Levi raised an eyebrow at that and looked over at the brunette,"Are you sure?"

The brunette shrugged and replied,"Yeah, I don't know why but I just don't feel hungry."

"It must be the chemo," Levi muttered to himself, a little concerned that the young man's appetite seemed to become less and less as the days wore on. Levi shrugged to himself, as long as he ate at least three square meals a day, it should be fine right? It took almost a half an hour for breakfast to be made, in a matter of ten of those minutes Eren was kicked out of the kitchen to "rest". Eren was in the midst of watching Regular Show when a plate of food was shoved in front of his face. Eren scrunched his nose up at the dish but after a stern look from Levi he took it nonetheless.

"I know your not feeling really hungry lately but try to eat, it's really not that much," Levi said, chewing on a piece of bacon and watching the tv disinterestedly.

"I will," Eren replied, much like a child being told to eat his vegetables, he slowly brought a piece of toast to his mouth and took a hesitant bite. In made a face at the taste. It didn't taste like toast.

"What's wrong?" Levi asked, noting Eren's scrunched up face.

"This toast doesn't taste right," the brunette replied, forcing himself to swallow the morsel of bread already in his mouth.

The raven raised an eyebrow and bit a piece of his own toast,"Seriously? It tastes just fine for me. Maybe your just stupid."

Eren rolled his eyes at the older male before taking a bite of bacon," Jee Levi, thanks, that makes me feel so much better."

The couple sat in silence for the remainder of the meal with the occasional snicker from Eren at the tv. Levi, feeling like his head might explode if he heard one more "OHHHHHH", took both plates to wash and put away. Before he left for the kitchen though he heard Eren's cellphone ring and heard him pick it up, no doubt it was Mikasa or something. The girl barely left Eren alone as it was, and now that he had cancer the overprotectiveness was barely tolerable for Levi's case.

Levi thought he was taking care of Eren just fine, but apparently Mikasa didn't think so, countless times she offered to come over and help. Whether it was to keep Eren company, make him some food, or share some "helpful" tips she read over the internet such as persuading Eren to join some group therapy, or eat some trivial crap to aid in whatever. Either way Levi had it under control and he always made sure Eren had plenty of rest and ate normally.

"Mikasa wants to drag me to the mall tomorrow," the brunette sighed, walking into the kitchen where Levi was drying his hands, the dishes already washed and put away.

The raven raised an eyebrow before replying,"I thought Mikasa hated malls...."

The brunette shivered, a hand rubbing his arm in discomfort,"And you think I don't? She wants to go wig shopping...I already told her a thousand times I don't want to wear a wig if my hair does fall out. I don't even want to go, I mean I haven't been home for more then a couple days, I just want to relax."

"Did you try telling her that?" the raven asked, leaning against the counter, arms crossed nonchalantly like the subject of Eren possibly losing his hair didn't bother him one bit. Truthfully it did.

Eren shot Levi a look, crossing his arms as well,"I did but you know how Mikasa is, once she plans something there is no going back with her."

"Right," Levi agreed, uncrossing his arms and making his way over to his brat, embracing him comfortingly.

After a few moments of silence the brunette asked in a quiet voice,"Levi do you think I'll end up losing my hair?"

The raven sucked on his teeth before replying hesitantly,"I...don't really know Eren...I really hope not."

With his response, the raven tangled his fingers between brown silken locks, standing on his tip toes to kiss the spot where Eren's hair met his forehead. His hair smelt like mangos today, and the raven had to resist rolling his eyes. Eren changed his shampoo every single week, if they were at the supermarket Eren always made a beeline for the hair product aisle. Levi wasn't allowed to come with him because Eren wanted to surprise the raven. To be honest Levi didn't even know where Eren stashed his shampoo at, he just knew he had a lot of it and if there was a new fragrance out the brunette was bound
to try it out to see how his lover would react.

The raven inhaled deeply,"Mangos..?"

Levi felt the brunette chuckle against his neck, light, warm breaths hitting his neck that made the older male shiver.

"Yay or nay?" the brunette asked.

"Well I can't say I really like it, but it was better than whatever you tried out last week before surgery."

"Pineapples."

"Yeah, don't wash with that retched shampoo again."

"But I have a whole bottle left!" the brunette whined,"What am I going to do with it?"

"Give it to Armin," Levi suggested.

"What do you have against pineapples anyways?"

"I don't have anything against them, I just don't like them all that much," the raven replied defensively, arms crossed, glaring up at his brat.

"Sureee," the brunette replied, arms crossed, and also glaring down at the shorter man.

"Alright you got me, one day at the restaurant Sasha threw a fucking pineapple at my head, those things fucking hurt," the raven replied, a bored look plastered acrossed his face.

"That's not a good reason not to like them," the brunette countered.

"I didn't say that was my reason, I just said that just to say that. I just don't like pineapples, the name sounds weird and it's a straight up weird fucking fruit," the raven said irritably before stalking off to take his daily shower.

"If we ever adopt a kid, I'm going to name him pineapple just to piss you off," Eren called after him with a grin.

"Oh that poor child, he'd be bullied for most of his life and end up married to a girl named sundae and it'll be all because of you," Levi shouted back.

"I never heard of a girl named sundae," the brunette retorted.

"Exactly," a yell was heard before it was drowned out by the sound of the shower running.

The brunette stared in the direction of Levi, confused as hell. Sometimes that weird, pissy little man scared him. With a shrug the brunette made his way back to the living room, mind set on calling Armin to see if he'd like to not only hang out with Mikasa and himself tomorrow, but also take the "retched" shampoo he thought Levi would like. Armin always took the failures. In all honesty it was because Eren got him hooked on his little "guess the shampoo" game. Annie sure as hell didn't like the game though, especially when Armin took the chocolate shampoo reject, Armin had to stay a couple days at the couple's apartment because Annie refused to cuddle up to a man that smelt of a poor excuse for chocolate. To be honest, Levi was close to shoving Eren's sorry ass out of the apartment for that shampoo to, but instead Levi made him wash his hair from the awful stench. It took three washes to make Levi satisfied. I wonder which shampoo I should buy next, the brunette thought, eyes glued to the ceiling and hands behind his head.

Holy crap I am so sorry this chapter took so freaking long I totally forgot I had to update last Sunday night! I was so busy! But anyways it's up now, I think this chapter is probably the suckiest one because I was trying to power through a case of writer's block. Anyways I hope you enjoy it, sorry for taking so long please don't kill me! Also any idea's on what shampoo Eren should try out next? I'm thinking maybe passion fruit.

"Really? Last time I checked the amazing Levi never did things in the "spur of the moment" way," the brunette replied with a sly look.

"Believe it or not the amazing Levi can occasionally be very random, these are one of these moments," the raven replied, giving Eren a chaste kiss before walking off the kitchen to make the couple some breakfast. Eren followed him.

"What do you want for breakfast?" Levi asked without turning around.

"How about eggs, bacon, and toast?" the brunette replied, not at all feeling hungry.

"We've already had that this week."

"So what bacon is good."

Levi nodded respectfully at the young man before replying,"No argument there."

Eren watched as Levi went around the kitchen, pulling out a frying pan and grabbing bacon along with a carton of eggs. Feeling the urge that he should be doing something to, Eren busied himself by making the two of them some toast.

"How many eggs do you want?" Levi asked after a few minutes of silence, an egg posed over the frying pan.

"Just one."

Levi raised an eyebrow at that and looked over at the brunette,"Are you sure?"

The brunette shrugged and replied,"Yeah, I don't know why but I just don't feel hungry."

"It must be the chemo," Levi muttered to himself, a little concerned that the young man's appetite seemed to become less and less as the days wore on. Levi shrugged to himself, as long as he ate at least three square meals a day, it should be fine right? It took almost a half an hour for breakfast to be made, in a matter of ten of those minutes Eren was kicked out of the kitchen to "rest". Eren was in the midst of watching Regular Show when a plate of food was shoved in front of his face. Eren scrunched his nose up at the dish but after a stern look from Levi he took it nonetheless.

"I know your not feeling really hungry lately but try to eat, it's really not that much," Levi said, chewing on a piece of bacon and watching the tv disinterestedly.

"I will," Eren replied, much like a child being told to eat his vegetables, he slowly brought a piece of toast to his mouth and took a hesitant bite. In made a face at the taste. It didn't taste like toast.

"What's wrong?" Levi asked, noting Eren's scrunched up face.

"This toast doesn't taste right," the brunette replied, forcing himself to swallow the morsel of bread already in his mouth.

The raven raised an eyebrow and bit a piece of his own toast,"Seriously? It tastes just fine for me. Maybe your just stupid."

Eren rolled his eyes at the older male before taking a bite of bacon," Jee Levi, thanks, that makes me feel so much better."

The couple sat in silence for the remainder of the meal with the occasional snicker from Eren at the tv. Levi, feeling like his head might explode if he heard one more "OHHHHHH", took both plates to wash and put away. Before he left for the kitchen though he heard Eren's cellphone ring and heard him pick it up, no doubt it was Mikasa or something. The girl barely left Eren alone as it was, and now that he had cancer the overprotectiveness was barely tolerable for Levi's case.

Levi thought he was taking care of Eren just fine, but apparently Mikasa didn't think so, countless times she offered to come over and help. Whether it was to keep Eren company, make him some food, or share some "helpful" tips she read over the internet such as persuading Eren to join some group therapy, or eat some trivial crap to aid in whatever. Either way Levi had it under control and he always made sure Eren had plenty of rest and ate normally.

"Mikasa wants to drag me to the mall tomorrow," the brunette sighed, walking into the kitchen where Levi was drying his hands, the dishes already washed and put away.

The raven raised an eyebrow before replying,"I thought Mikasa hated malls...."

The brunette shivered, a hand rubbing his arm in discomfort,"And you think I don't? She wants to go wig shopping...I already told her a thousand times I don't want to wear a wig if my hair does fall out. I don't even want to go, I mean I haven't been home for more then a couple days, I just want to relax."

"Did you try telling her that?" the raven asked, leaning against the counter, arms crossed nonchalantly like the subject of Eren possibly losing his hair didn't bother him one bit. Truthfully it did.

Eren shot Levi a look, crossing his arms as well,"I did but you know how Mikasa is, once she plans something there is no going back with her."

"Right," Levi agreed, uncrossing his arms and making his way over to his brat, embracing him comfortingly.

After a few moments of silence the brunette asked in a quiet voice,"Levi do you think I'll end up losing my hair?"

The raven sucked on his teeth before replying hesitantly,"I...don't really know Eren...I really hope not."

With his response, the raven tangled his fingers between brown silken locks, standing on his tip toes to kiss the spot where Eren's hair met his forehead. His hair smelt like mangos today, and the raven had to resist rolling his eyes. Eren changed his shampoo every single week, if they were at the supermarket Eren always made a beeline for the hair product aisle. Levi wasn't allowed to come with him because Eren wanted to surprise the raven. To be honest Levi didn't even know where Eren stashed his shampoo at, he just knew he had a lot of it and if there was a new fragrance out the brunette was bound
to try it out to see how his lover would react.

The raven inhaled deeply,"Mangos..?"

Levi felt the brunette chuckle against his neck, light, warm breaths hitting his neck that made the older male shiver.

"Yay or nay?" the brunette asked.

"Well I can't say I really like it, but it was better than whatever you tried out last week before surgery."

"Pineapples."

"Yeah, don't wash with that retched shampoo again."

"But I have a whole bottle left!" the brunette whined,"What am I going to do with it?"

"Give it to Armin," Levi suggested.

"What do you have against pineapples anyways?"

"I don't have anything against them, I just don't like them all that much," the raven replied defensively, arms crossed, glaring up at his brat.

"Sureee," the brunette replied, arms crossed, and also glaring down at the shorter man.

"Alright you got me, one day at the restaurant Sasha threw a fucking pineapple at my head, those things fucking hurt," the raven replied, a bored look plastered acrossed his face.

"That's not a good reason not to like them," the brunette countered.

"I didn't say that was my reason, I just said that just to say that. I just don't like pineapples, the name sounds weird and it's a straight up weird fucking fruit," the raven said irritably before stalking off to take his daily shower.

"If we ever adopt a kid, I'm going to name him pineapple just to piss you off," Eren called after him with a grin.

"Oh that poor child, he'd be bullied for most of his life and end up married to a girl named sundae and it'll be all because of you," Levi shouted back.

"I never heard of a girl named sundae," the brunette retorted.

"Exactly," a yell was heard before it was drowned out by the sound of the shower running.

The brunette stared in the direction of Levi, confused as hell. Sometimes that weird, pissy little man scared him. With a shrug the brunette made his way back to the living room, mind set on calling Armin to see if he'd like to not only hang out with Mikasa and himself tomorrow, but also take the "retched" shampoo he thought Levi would like. Armin always took the failures. In all honesty it was because Eren got him hooked on his little "guess the shampoo" game. Annie sure as hell didn't like the game though, especially when Armin took the chocolate shampoo reject, Armin had to stay a couple days at the couple's apartment because Annie refused to cuddle up to a man that smelt of a poor excuse for chocolate. To be honest, Levi was close to shoving Eren's sorry ass out of the apartment for that shampoo to, but instead Levi made him wash his hair from the awful stench. It took three washes to make Levi satisfied. I wonder which shampoo I should buy next, the brunette thought, eyes glued to the ceiling and hands behind his head.
