Sugar

05

Your way to his office was rather awkward, his assistant seemed nice, but he didn't talk much, not that you were surprised since Levi didn't like talkative people. He drove you all the way and even asked you how was your day, if you weren't angry, you would've chitchatted all the way.

He then showed you around the building where Levi apparently worked, you had to contain all your gasps because you had never been there and it was just amazing. It was like one of those companies you could see in the movies, full of people working and enjoying their coffee.

"Wow." You muttered. "And you guys have like relaxing rooms? So cool." You clapped your hands, just as if you weren't going to yell at the CEO of that company because he took advantage of his sugar daddy position. How amusing.

"Yes ma'am, we also have a canteen and a bar." The guy, you hadn't even asked his name, but you weren't focused on that at the moment. "Now I'll show you to Mr. Ackerman's office, he said you needed to talk to him?"

"Mhm? Oh yeah." You answered as you were still looking at all the offices and hallways. As you followed him, you started to think of a way to start the conversation without being too hard on Levi, he probably did what he did with good intentions. You just wanted to tell him that he had made you feel bad, that's it, no need to yell or cause a scene.

"Y/n!" You turned and saw Erwin coming towards you. "Are you here to see Levi?" He stopped in front of you and you did your best to smile.

"Hi, so good to see you again." You hadn't met him after that little inconvenience at the restaurant, but he didn't seem to mind it at all as he was offering one of the best smiles you had had that day. "Yep, I needed to talk to him about something very important." You explained trying to hide the fact that you wanted to smack that little man in his face.

Erwin nodded and then looked at Levi's assistant. "I'll walk her, you can go have a break." He offered and the guy nodded gladly before walking away.

"Thank you, that's very kind of you." You said starting to walk with him. "Do you work here as well?" You asked curiously, that place was so big it could have at least five different companies inside.

"Depends on the mood, but I like coming here to work since Levi and I are colleagues." He shrugged and you both entered the elevator. "So... you and Levi are very close?"

You felt your cheeks heating up at that question. "Mhm, guess you could say so." You brushed a lock of hair behind your ear unsure of what to say, Levi clearly didn't want them to know about your weird relationship based on money and sex. "He talked about you, you must be very good friends." You decided to change the subject.

Erwin chuckled as the elevator kept going higher. "I'm surprised he talked about me if not to insult me." He joked and you giggled because that was just what he would do. "I know he can be... difficult, but he is a good and caring person beneath that serious expression and hard words."

You frowned looking down at your shoes. "Why are you telling me this?" It was nice to see how his friends got his back, but they didn't even know what was going on between the two of you.

"Because I've never seen him so interested in someone, he doesn't just take any girl out to a fancy restaurant, nor does he give her his jacket." He referred at your first meeting when you were wearing an elegant dress, but because it was so cold, Levi had given you his jacket to keep you warm. "Don't lose hope. Also, it's about time he settles down."

You widened your eyes. "With me?!"

"Yes, Hanji and I were so surprised to see him with such a beautiful and cheerful young woman." He joked and you forced a smile. If only Erwin knew, you were way younger than he expected, it was just an awkward position, to say the least.
