Chapter Text
“Eren, wake up.” Levi whispered as he brushed Eren’s fringe away from his face.
Eren scrunched up his face as he grunted, “5 more minutes…”
“Didn’t you want to explore Paris?” Levi smirked. A moment of silence went by and suddenly the whole bed shook, and Levi was attacked by the blanket. “What the-”
“I’M IN PARIS!!” Eren exclaimed as he got out of bed and opened the balcony door, smelling the morning Paris air. “The smell of Paris, the smell of baguette and of course, the smell of Art!”
“Come your dick down, brat. We have the whole week here in Paris for you to explore.” Levi chuckled.
Eren whipped his head back to look at his lover whose eyebrow raised when their eyes met. Suddenly, Eren attacked Levi with a tight hug and kissed his cheek countless time. “I still haven’t thanked you enough for this wonderful trip.” Eren chuckled when Levi grumbled.
“You’re welcome.” Levi chuckled as he hugged Eren back before smacking his buttocks, “Now go wash up and we can get breakfast.”

“That hotel breakfast was so delicious.” Eren smiled as they left the hotel lobby and into the busy street of Paris.
Levi caught up to Eren and immediately laced his fingers with Eren’s while they walked to their next destination. “It was indeed delicious.”
“Where are we going next?” Eren questioned as he looked around in awe; the colourful building made the whole atmosphere seemed like they were in a painting, with the Eiffel Tower at the back.
“The Louvre.” Levi replied as he flagged down a cab.
“Starting strong I see.” Eren chuckled as he hopped into the cab, followed by Levi.
***
“Never thought that I would get the chance to visit ‘The Louvre’.” Eren whispered as he admired the sculpture.
Levi smiled. He knew that Art was an important part of Eren, so choosing to come to Paris was the correct decision, seeing as it was not only the City of Love, but it was well known for its Art too.
Even though Eren wanted to explore the whole of Paris, he just can’t seem to leave ‘The Louvre’, and what was 1 hour soon became 2, then 3, and finally when it was about 4pm, Eren finally felt that he was somewhat contented as well as famished. “I’m sorry that we spent almost the whole day in the museum…” Eren sighed as they left the place.
“I didn’t mind it, I quite enjoyed myself too; the arts were very interesting.” Levi smirked.
Eren smiled and gave Levi a peck on the cheek. “So where are we going next? I’m kinda hungry.”
“How about going to a nearby café before we go for dinner?” Levi suggested.
“Sounds wonderful.” Eren chuckled. The thought of having a cup of hot cocoa in his hands while talking with Levi about nothing seemed wonderful.
After about 10 minutes of walking in the busy street, the bell of the café rang as Levi pushed the door open and Eren could immediately feel the warm and relaxed ambiance of the place together with the smell of freshly baked coffee beans. Eren immediately went for the window seat while Levi went over to the counter to order.
“Une tasse de cacao chaud et une tasse d'americano chaud s’il vous plaît.” Levi ordered and gave the money to the cashier.
After uttering a quick ‘merci beaucoup’, Levi picked up the tray and headed over to their table by the window. He placed the cup of hot cocoa in front of Eren and his hot americano in front of his seat before he headed over to the counter to return the tray.
Making his way back, he sat down in his seat and took a quick sip of his coffee. This café made a cup of good coffee and Levi made sure to remember this place for future plans.
The couple sat down in silence while enjoying their cup of beverage; the both of them enjoying the peaceful silence as Eren stared out of the window, looking at random passer-by walking passed the café. Levi then saw Eren constantly fiddling with his fingers. He smirked. “Itching to draw?”
Eren whipped his head and looked at Levi with wide eyes and started smiling sheepishly. “Was it obvious?”
“You always start fiddling with your fingers when you have an inspiration.” Levi chuckled, taking the last sip of his coffee.
“Really? I didn’t realise it.” Eren furrowed his eyebrows as he looked at his hands.
“People tend to not know of their own habit until someone tells them.”
“Hmm…” Eren hummed and he looked out of the window again. “I really do wanna draw this scene of people walking down the busy streets of Paris.”
“We can walk around the streets and draw tomorrow if you want to.”
“Really? Won’t it be boring for you?” Eren tilted his head slightly.
“I’ll bring along a book to read; don’t worry about it.”
Eren smiled shyly. “We always do the things that I want and not what you want.”
“What I want is for you to enjoy this trip to the fullest and besides, I’m contented when you are happy.”
“Damn, you do have your ways with your words.” Eren mumbled as he hid his face behind his cup.
Levi chuckled. “Only for you.”
