Levi leaned against the edge of the pier, watching the sunset, feeling the sea breeze on his cheeks. He had heard the rumors about your return, but had tried his best to ignore them. If anyone asked about you, he dismissed them and carried on with whatever he was doing.

He couldn't allow himself to fall in love with you again, not after you had abandoned not only him but all your comrades without a reason, without a note... nothing. He couldn't help but feel the tension in his body as he heard your familiar footsteps behind him, coming to a stop just behind him. He didn't look at you, he couldn't.

"Look who's back," Levi muttered under his breath, his voice dripping with bitterness and coldness.
