Chapter Text
Levi Oathman is the president of Titan shipping company. Everday he wakes up at 6:00 am and goes to work at 6:30. His secretary, Eren Jaeger brings him coffee and his daily papers. They start work at 7:00 and takes a tea break at 10:00 and resumes. They take lunch break at 12:00 to 1:00 pm then they work continuesly to 3:00 then they take a break again. They leave the office at 7:00 pm and they either have dinner together or go to their separate homes and eat fast food or instant noodles.
That was their everyday mundane life.
It was calm.
It was peaceful.
One morning, Levi woke up from a bad dream. It was from his time in the orphanage.
He remembers it all too well.
No food, working like slaves, being tortured.
He shivered and got out of the bed.
He turned on the tv and proceeded to make himself a cup of coffee.
“The prestigious leader of the Ackerman family has died as of today.”
A female reporter announced.
“It is said that the main house has no heir to inherit the family fortune. A-” Levi turned it off, annoyed by the voice of the lady.
“Tch, too high-pitched.” He took a sip from his coffee and opened his laptop.
He opened his personal email and saw nothing important. It was filled with Hanji’s chain jokes and Erwin’s picture of his son, Armin.
He saw an email from Eren and it piqued his interest. He opened it and saw Eren with a cat. Eren had his own blog and surprise surprise, Levi was following it. He subsribed to Eren’s blog so that every time he updates, Levi will see it.
Levi raised an eyebrow at Eren’s caption.
“My cat looks a lot like my <3 ;D”
The cat was gray and its ears and some parts of its head, which formed like a hair line was black. The cat’s expression reminded Levi of the grumpy cat Hanji kept on sending him.
“Well if this is how Eren’s… ‘heart’ looks like then he must have a bad taste in men.”
Men. Yes.
Levi knew Eren was gay. It was when they were first going to dinner together. Eren was blushing the whole time. On their way home a guy started buggering Eren.
“Hey, Eren. Got a new notch to your belt.”
“Shut up, Luke. Go away.”
They sidestepped and ignored him when the guy suddenly grabbed his arm.
Eren was strugging, muttering “Let me go.” Over and over. Levi was about to butt in when the guy spoke.
“Hey, Eren. Come on, don’t be like that. I promise I won’t force you to do it again next time, so let’s go out again?”
Levi became furious and was about to punch the guy when Eren kicked his crotch.
“Promise your ass! I’m not giving my virginity to some dick who thinks he can just whip out his cock and expect me to suck it!”
He turned around and started walking away. Levi was too dumbstruck to follow.
“Come on, president, let’s go.”
Levi would usually retort with “I’m the one who gives orders here.” But this time, he let Eren be.
Later that evening was when Levi first encountered Eren’s blog. Apparently he’s a known pro LGBT rights blogger or something.
He snapped out of his thoughts when his alarm went off. He slammed it and proceeded to do his morning rituals.
When Levi got into the office, Eren was frowning. There were a lot of letters on his desk.
“Good morning, sir.” Levi nodded and gestured to the letters.
“Where’d that come from?”
Eren sighed. “I have no idea. Different delivery men kept on coming asking me to give those to you.”
He walked beside Levi, holding a cup of coffee and entered their office.
Eren laid down the coffee at Levi’s desk and went out to get a letter.
“Out of all those, this looked the most important.” He handed the letter with a red seal and on it was a capital letter A.
Levi looked at the letter warily but opened it anyway.
Eren was fidgeting, anxious to know what it was about.
After reading the letter, Levi slumped back to his chair and massaged his forehead. He could feel a headache coming.
“W-what is it?”
“Apparently, my biological father’s the late head of the Ackerman family. I was an illegitimate son born from his ‘coupling’ with a Japanese maid. He understands if I didn’t want to have anything to do with the family but he insists that I receive the family fortune and the rest of them ‘can all just go to hell’.”
“O-oh.” They were both silent for a while, neither not knowing what to say.
“I’ll go get the other letters, determine from who they’re from.”
An hour later they have opened all 250 letters.
Eren let out a sigh of relief. “I didn’t know you had that many relatives, sir.”
“I didn’t know that either.”
Eren let out a small laughter and immediately covered his mouth.
Levi was surprised and laughed alongside Eren.
