Tasteful - Levi x OC (Attack On Titan)

Worthless Hope

Hours later and the castle was once again silent with sleep.

"HAHAHHAH!"

...

Maybe not.

"Damnit. Stop laughing right now or I'll--" Carlisle grumbled, shooting the raven head a deadly glare.

But Kain waved him off, laughing even louder and more obnoxiously as he gripped his stomach with one hand and wiped away tears with the other. "HA-- HUUHH, I CAN'T BREATHE! Agh-- Ow! Why again?!" He cried loudly as there was once again a slap to the back of his head.

He turned around to his sister who was seated on the edge of her bed behind him. Kain and Carlisle were both sat on the floor infront of her bed. Tobias across from them sitting on a folded up blanket and Lydia lounging in the chair next to them. They had all gathered there after Kain carried his sister to her room. Now they were discussing stories and reminiscing on fond memories.

"There are people sleeping. Quiet down." Arden ordered, trying her hardest not to smile at the pouting scowl he gave her.

Snickering could be heard from her left and she turned to see Carlisle clamping a hand over his mouth as he tried his hardest not to laugh just as loudly as Kain did. Muffled chuckles were sounding from behind his hand.

Narrowing her eyes, she carefully reached over, giving the tall man a slap to the back of his head aswell.

"The fuck--! Why me?!" He stressed, rubbing the spot she hit as he shook his head at her.

"You know what that was for." She stated sternly, brows furrowing upwards for a second, giving him a pointed look. She was referring to him giving her his blood, more specifically the bandage that was now wrapped around his palm from where he cut himself to fill the chalice.

Grumbling, Carlisle leaned back, his light brown locks sprawling on the bed sheets. "Well, I won't apologise for it. You needed it..."

But he missed the upwards tilt of her lips as he closed his eyes and folded his arms over his chest, muttering frustrated things to himself in his usual Carlisle fashion.

And when a softer, angelic laugh rung through the room, everyone turned to see Tobias chuckling to himself. His striking silver hair glowing in the moonlight that was spilling into the room. His hands tucked under his crossed legs as he laughed sweetly.

"What are you laughing at?" Kain grumbled, still pouting and glaring like a big-man-baby.

"Sorry, sorry." He waved shyly, "I don't mean to offend. It's just always been funny watching you two being so c-childish after being hit by Arden. I guess I'm just happy it's not me."

"It will never be you!" Kain and Carlisle groaned simultaneously, turning to each other with sudden glares before quickly looking away.

Tobias shyly rubbed the back of his neck but smiled nonetheless. He knew that there was never any negative feelings between the group.

Lydia quietly giggled too before turning to face Arden on the bed, her expression softening, "How are you feeling now?"

"I'll be fine. You don't have to worry about me." Arden responded instantly, not wanting her friends to worry.
