Levi's eyes shot open as a loud clanking sound rang through his ears. He instantly sat up from the black cushioned couch that he had moved in the middle of the bottom floor so he wouldn't have to listen to Connie's loud snoring. Honestly, he didn't understand how any of them could sleep with that annoying noise filling the air. 

Levi reached for his gun and slowly started walking in the direction the sound came from. As he got closer, he noticed the light to McDonald's was on. Keeping a straight face and holding his gun in front of him, he stepped one foot in one of America's favorite restaurant. That's just one more thing he didn't understand about humankind -- or what used to be humankind. 

Taking another silent step, Levi heard another noise. But instead of it being distant, it was directly behind the 'Employees Only' door that kept all the food and cooking devices in it. Steadily Levi placed a hand on the push only door and made sure he could aim and shoot at what is making the noises. 

Taking a breath, Levi quickly pushed open the door and saw a figure crouched down on the floor with it's back to him. Without looking properly, Levi shot -- but missed. A loud shriek pierce his ears and the figure shot up and held a hand to their heart.

"What the hell Levi?!" [Name] shouted at him trying to catch her breath. Levi opened his eyes and stared at a shocked [Name] who was panting heavily.

"Oh, it's just you." Levi said plainly then shoved his gun in the back of his jeans. 

"You just tried to shoot me!" [Name] exclaimed glaring in Levi's direction. Levi just shrugged then looked down at the mess of food on the floor and grimaced.

"Clean that," Levi ordered and averted his eyes from the floor to [Name]. [Name] glanced down at the mess she had made because of her clumsiness then shook her head. 

"No, you clean it. You're the clean freak here." [Name] retorted and placed a hand on her hip and smirked. Levi glared at her and crossed his arms over his chest.

"You made it," he hissed and narrowed his eyes. 

"You want it clean," [Name] shot back and copied his actions by crossing her arms over her chest and narrowing her [e/c] eyes into his gray ones. Levi scoffed and glanced down at the melting mess of vanilla ice cream. 

"It's melting. You better clean it before it makes the floor all sticky," [Name] teased and went to walk past Levi and out the door so she could continue on with her beauty sleep -- except without the ice cream. Just as she was about to push to door open, a hand gripped onto her arm to prevent her from leaving. 

"I will make you clean it if I have to." Levi warned. [Name] sighed and turned around. "How about no."

"How about yes." Levi insisted.

"I think not," [Name] sassed.

"I think yes," Levi sassed back and blocked the door way. [Name] growled under her breath and glared at his slightly taller figure. 

"I'd rather not." [Name] blurted. 

"I'd rather you do." Levi snapped. 

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"I will stand here all night if I have to. You're cleaning it," Levi advised. [Name] sighed know there was no way out of this. She had learned of Levi's strange cleaning disorder when they first met and ever since then he's snapped at her for being dirty or getting something dirty. It had gotten quite annoying to her, but she knew that if she didn't obey and clean he'd probably lock her in the freezer. 

'That's actually sad that I'm not surprised that he'd do that,' [Name] thought and bellowed her head. "Fine, Mr. BossyAssCleanFreak." 

"What was that?" Levi growled from in front of the doorway. [Name]'s eyes widened and she quickly crouched down and started to clean the melted ice cream, "Nothing!" 

"That's what I thought," Levi smirked and leaned against the wall, but still guarded the only door out with his right foot. As he looked around the cramped cooking area he couldn't help but stare at [Name] as she cleaned. Her backside was facing him and he couldn't help but let his eyes trail down it it.

"Gosh, stop staring at my ass, Levi." [Name] joked without turning around. Levi averted his eyes immediately and scoffed. "Like there's anything to look at," he lied. If only she knew he was actually staring at her backside. [Name] faked an offended gasp and the hand she wasn't using to clean up to her chest.

"I'm offended. You think I don't have any curves?" [Name] squeaked in a 'valley girl' voice. Levi glanced down and looked over her body as she continued to scrub the ice cream off the floor. 

"Yes." Lie. 

[Name]'s mouth dropped and she turned and glared at Levi who stared back with a bored expression. "You're so mean!" [Name] barked. Levi shrugged and stared at the plain white wall that had a poster that was supposed to remind the workers to wash their hands, but Levi highly doubted that any of them took orders from the small poster. 

"So I've been told," Levi admitted. [Name] rolled her eyes and turned her head back to the floor. She lifted the sponge she was cleaning with and admired her work. "There. Clean as new." 

Levi pushed himself off the walk and walked over to where [Name] was still crouched to observe her work. After glancing down and it he gave an approving nod. [Name] smirked and jumped up to stretch her muscles -- and accidentally smacked Levi in the face. Levi froze and [Name] froze. 

[Name]'s eyes widened as she stared at her arm that made skin contact with Levi's face. Levi slowly lifted his left arm and pushed away [Name]'s before saying one simple word that held so much anger in it.

"Run." 

[Name] quickly sprinted towards the door and pushed past it. As she frantically glanced around for a place to hide, Levi blinked slowly and snapped his head to the door that [Name] had ran out of only seconds ago. Taking his time, Levi walked over to the door and pushed it open. He stepped out of the crowded room and let the door swing itself shut before he broke out in a full on sprint. 

Hearing the loud pounding of Levi's fast footsteps [Name] panicked and let out a squeal then started running in a random direction. Levi heard [Name] squeal of surprised and smirked. He sped up his pace and ran in the direction her voice came from. [Name] heard the footsteps get louder and faster meaning he was gaining up on her. 

Panting, [Name] quickly shoved her worn out body in random room that just happened to be next to her. She took a couple steps back from the door and glanced around the room. Well, it wasn't exactly a room or store. It was a janitor closet. The smell of cleaning chemicals filled her nose and she struggled not to let out a sneeze or cough. 

Levi's footsteps came to a slow pace as he reached the area where he heard [Name]. [Name] heard his slow footsteps outside the door and bit her lip to stop the panting, because panting equals noise which equals being discovered and [Name] really doesn't want to know what happens next. 

Levi stopped right in front of the janitor's closet and listened for any noise that would tell him where [Name] was at. Then he heard it -- her breathing. It was close, really close. Levi turned around and scanned his eyes over the closet and held back a chuckle. Of course.

When the footsteps stopped completely, [Name] thought that Levi had moved on and was looking somewhere else so she decided to open the door. And boy, was she wrong. When she opened the door she came face to face with a pissed off Levi. [Name]'s eyes widened and she let out a scream and slammed the door in his face.

Wrong move.

Levi reached for the handle and opened the door. [Name] glanced around for an object to defend herself with when her eyes landed on a broom. She glanced back at Levi who was slowly approaching her and quickly grabbed for the stick of it. Quickly, she swung at him and right when she though she'd actually hit him, Levi's hand wrapped around the end of the stick before it even came five inches of his face. 

[Name]'s eyes widened even more (if that's even possible) as Levi ripped the broom from her grasp and made her stumbled forward. [Name] looked around the closet for something else, but the only things left were bottles of chemicals that wouldn't do her much help. As Levi took a step forward, [Name] took a step back.

"L-Look Levi I think there's some misunderstanding," [Name] stuttered and took another step back as Levi stepped forward. Levi raised an eyebrow. "Oh really?" 

[Name] gulped and nodded. "Y-Yeah, you see it was an accident." Another step back, another step forward. 

"You see, I don't think it was." Levi said calmly. Another step forward, another step back.

"W-What? Of course it was!" [Name] argued when her back smacked against the cement hard wall. She let out a small gasp and stared at Levi with fearful eyes. Levi's figure grew taller and closer as he approached her. [Name] gulped and looked up at him as he came to a stop. His body was basically pressed up against hers and he put his hands on both sides of her so there was no way to escape. 

"You sure about that?" Levi whispered in her ear, his hot breath sending goosebumps down her skin. [Name]'s face heated and she nodded. "Y-Yeah!" Levi smirked and stared down at her. [Name] did everything but make eye contact with him.

"Are you going to lock me in a freezer?"

"No."

"Throw me in that huge fish tank in that one store?"

"No."

"Have me clean some more?"

"No." 

"Then what are you going to do?" [Name] asked slightly confused and looked up at Levi. Levi smirked when he noticed how close their faces were. 

"I have a much better punishment," he said lowly. 

"What is i-" [Name] was cut off by Levi pressing his lips against hers. [Name]'s eyes widened in surprised and she stood frozen in shock. When Levi noticed it he pressed his lips against her even harder making her head hit the wall. [Name]'s eyes fluttered shut and she eventually found herself kissing back with the same amount of force that Levi was kissing her with. 

Her arms picked themselves up and wrapped around Levi's neck the same time Levi's wrapped around her waist and pulled her closer to him. [Name]'s hand found themselves getting tangles and Levi's dark locks which caused her to press her chest up against his. Levi pulled away for a second to catch his breath then placed his lips back on hers just as fast as he pulled away.

[Name] melted into the kiss and pulled herself closer to Levi. Levi's tongue slid across her lips and when she didn't even an answer right away he tightened his hands around her waist making her let out a small gasp, but that was enough for Levi to force his tongue inside her mouth and explore it. 

[Name] let out a whimper when Levi's tongue pushed hers down and won dominance inside her mouth. As Levi continued to kiss her, his thumbs subconsciously rubbed small circles along her waist. 

Levi opened his eyes and quickly pulled away making [Name] confused and shocked. His lips were swollen and his eyes were wide with surprise. Had he actually just done that? [Name] stared back at him with wide eyes as she tried to ignore the tingling feeling on her lips. 

"I shouldn't have done that," Levi said quickly and sprinted out of the room in embarrassment. [Name] stood there shocked and raised a hand to her swollen and tingly lips not believe that had just happened either. Her face flushed when she realized it did happen and Levi had completely pushed her away. 

[Name] sighed and slowly moved towards the door, "No midnight snacks for me anymore."
