Author's Note: I am astounded at the amount of praise/votes SD got. I had honestly thought it wasn't as well received as the others but apparently, y'all like Levi as a your boss or something. I had no idea how I wanted to finish this off...so here...is it is! ???? Okay, so Levi is kinda...OOC but Isayama said he is awkward with love, right? I don't know what I wrote. Enjoy this weird...crappy oneshot. Also, I was too lazy to do a recap of the last chapters. And I didn't edit this like I usually do. Sowwy
Part Three
***
A smile tugged at the corner of your lips and intense relief swelled within your chest. If you were asked to describe the feeling, you would truly be at a loss for words. There were far too many emotions swirling in your mind for you to properly be able to explain it away.
It was finished.
Nearing the two year anniversary of starting at your firm, the five-star luxury Stohess Hotel, designed with ultra modern interiors, was having its grand opening tomorrow. All of your hard work, your visions, your ideas were entirely fleshed out into everything you had hoped it to be. The hotel's owner, Erwin Smith, was beyond impress with your abilities as a designer, but as well as with the efficiency and knowledge your agency Scout Design had. Of course, the man never outright showed his, but his praise for you was given to Hanji Zoe, the owner of the said company.
Presently, Erwin was throwing a "launch" party within the ballroom of the hotel to celebrate the grand opening. All of Scout Design's employees were invited, and those who had any part in the process of constructing Stohess were allowed to invite family and friends.
You, having left home years ago, were not able to invite your family to the party but you were happy nonetheless to be sharing your accomplishments with your co-workers and your superiors. Even though they were not with you, you were well aware that your family members were proud of your achievements.
And of course, your own boss and boyfriend, Levi was among the guests.
As your thoughts trailed to the man you had been secretly dating for the last five months, you let your gaze rest upon his side profile beside you. The pair of you were mingling among the many guests of the night who were congratulating you both on a spectacular job. Levi consistently made it known that he was only the support on the project and that you deserved all the praise.
"No date tonight, Mr. Ackerman?" asked the high profile stock holder before you.
Levi lowered his champagne glass from his lips. "I thought it only fitting if Miss (l/n) would appear as my date, as we both do not have family or others to invite."
As he had spoke, his hand gently went to your lower back and you stepped closer to him automatically. Bearing a grin, you agreed with his statement. The elderly man appeared to have a knowing expression while he eyed you both.
"You do her no justice," he teased. "You are quite stunning, Miss (l/n), and he simply pales in comparison."
You let out a brief chuckle. "Oh, I don't know about that," you replied, simply glowing with all the acclaim you had been receiving. "But I appreciate the sentiment, sir."
After a few more minutes of amiable small talk, the stock holder's attention went elsewhere. You and Levi began to meander through the crowds again.
"What the hell was that supposed to mean anyways?" you heard Levi grumble under his breath. He swiped a champagne flute from a nearby waiter with irritation. "'Pale in comparison....' That old bat better watch himself, flirting with another man's woman like that."
