Day 25: Christmas Day
Levi waited for Y/N to come out of the bedroom, rubbing her eyes and yawning. "Morn-" She stopped speaking, her eyes widening as she took in the room, a grin breaking out across her sleepy face and casting all tiredness aside.
In the centre of the room stood a beautifully decorated tree, laden with presents beneath, all immaculately wrapped. The fire crackled, casting a flickering, Amber glow across the brick walls.
"Levi, did you do all of this?" The excitement had subsided to amazement as she turned to him, he nodded, he was even wearing that stupid santa hat for her. She ran towards him, catching him in a tight hug. "It's amazing, Levi."
"Only the best for my girl." She beamed up at him, he brushed her messy hair away from her face. "But I have one present that isn't under the tree."
Levi moved out of her grasp and took a box from his pocket, kneeling on one knee. He watched as the face of the woman he loved brightened up, her hands flying to her mouth. "I have waited a long time to ask you this, and I admit this is terrifying for me to do, but you have brightened up my life since the day I met you. You make every breath worth it, a million times over and I can't imagine life without you. Y/N, can I please have the thing I want most in the world? The best Christmas gift I could ever recieve. Will you do me the honour of becoming my wife?"
Needless to say. This was both of their favorite Christmases.

Day 08: Christmas Lists (NSFW WARNING)
“What are you doing?” Levi asked, peering over Y/N’s shoulder, his hands on the back of the desk chair. She looked at him over her shoulder, shielding the paper from his eyes with her arms and smiling sweetly. “My Christmas list, Santa’s eyes only.” “He isn’t even re-“ She shushed him, narrowing her eyes in a mocking glare. “Don’t make me ask him to put you on the naughty list, Levi Ackerman.” She teased, slipping the paper out of his view to fold it before placing it into her breast pocket and moving out of the chair. “Sit.” She ordered, handing him a fresh piece of paper and a pen. “I’m not going to-“ He stopped, her folded arms and slightly pouted lips commanding him otherwise, he couldn’t resist that look. He sighed, sitting and taking the pen, writing his list while Y/N watched from the bench by the door with a smug smile.
He finished his list with a smirk, standing up as Y/N met him on the other side of the table. “I want an early present.” He handed her the paper where he had written one word in the middle of the paper: Y/N L/N. Y/N smiled shyly, it was rare that Levi was this forward, but she didn’t have much time to think about her answer to his request as his lips were already on hers and his hands on her hips. He kissed her passionately, turning so that she had her back to the desk as they kissed. She perched on it, Levi pushing the many sheets of paper aside, they could wait, he had more pressing matters to attend to right now. “You know, you never let me say whether you were getting your present or not…” She breathed as he trailed kisses along her jaw and down her neck and collarbone before working his way back up. “Oh really?” He mumbled against her neck, his breath sending shivers throughout her whole body, expertly undoing the buttons of her shirt, he felt her nod feverishly, “If the answer was no we wouldn’t be here right now.” He pulled back, his gaze darting to her lips before returning to those E/C eyes of hers, they were lit with desire, “So what’s your answer?” He asked, his voice low and enticing. “You know that it’s a yes.” She mumbled, grabbing his face and pulling him in for more kisses, “But this is the only early present.” “We’ll see.”

Day 13: Christmas Tree
“Shorty! Just who I wanted to see!” Hange exclaimed, waltzing into the office where Y/N had been helping Levi dust his already immaculate shelves, “Calling in my IOU, I need someone to decorate the tree in the Mess Hall.” Y/N saw Levi scowl to himself; everyone hated that job. Small trees, fine. But trees that required Eren to fetch in titan form due to being so tall? No thanks. She smiled to herself, Hange bounding back out of the room. “Damn it.”
“Alright, that’s one huge tree.” Y/N commented, looking up at the obnoxiously large pine with the Levi squad. Levi hummed in response, still annoyed that Hange had gotten out of this and dumped it onto him. These brats decorated so messily, and it grated on his nerves every time, things should be symmetrical and well-patterned, it seemed that only he understood it. They weren’t long into decorating when Levi began to get frustrated, snapping about bauble placement and  making the task one million times more tedious. After all, it was a ten-metre tree, did it really matter if one bauble didn’t have equal branch-space between itself and the next? “Levi,” Y/N touched his arm gently, smiling softly, “Don’t you think you’re being a bit harsh?” He glared at her, his black mood raining down hard. “Says who?” He retorted, “Not my fault you guys are all pathetic excuses of human beings, you can’t dust, you can’t decorate… If you can’t do that, how do you all expect not to get eaten, idiots.” Everyone stopped, open mouthed, and looked at the Captain. He never, ever, spoke to Y/N like that. She stood in shock for a moment, stunned by the venom in his words. Looking him dead in the eye, she dropped her tinsel to the floor, “Do it yourself then.” And despite her stony expression, everyone heard the heavy sniffles as she marched out of the Mess Hall.
“Y/N?” Levi poked his head sheepishly around the door, looking at his partner curled up under the duvet, back to him, “Are you awake?” He asked, closing the door quietly behind him, she sighed exasperatedly. He sat by her form on the bed, “Look I know I was being shitty, I was a right idiot and you probably think I don’t give a crap how hard you were trying to-“ “What do you want, Levi.” Her voice was dry, harsh. “I’m sorry.” He muttered, and he was. He was ashamed of the way he had acted, these people always stood by him, respected him and trusted him. And he had been an ass. Y/N remained silent, he dared himself to put his hand on her shoulder, she began to relax, but caught herself and forced her joints to tense again. “Just, come look, okay? You don’t have to talk to me.” “Look at what.” “The tree.”
Y/N stood in the Mess Hall, the gigantic tree standing in the middle, fairy lights casting momentary shadows of the Levi Squad onto the walls. Levi had apologised to them too, even taken their scoldings for the way he’d spoken to Y/N. Y/N shrugged, looking up at the tree, Levi could see her face now, her eyes red and puffy from crying. “What am I supposed to be seeing?” She asked, Levi stepped forward and pointed up. Up high in the top third of the tree, a single bauble lay imperfect, purposely misplaced by the Captain. “This damn thing.” He made a point of looking extra annoyed by it, a small smile breaking out across Y/N’s lips. “Fine, apology accepted.” She folded her arms, “Good luck getting the star on top.” Eren and Mikasa stepped out from behind the tree, Mikasa suited and booted, “That’s what ODM gear is for.”

Day 02: Christmas Cards.
“Why do I have to do this?” Levi complained, writing Christmas Cards at his desk, “Don’t I sit here doing paperwork long enough?” Y/N looked up from the other side of the desk with a smile, all he was doing was signing his name, she was doing all of the rest. “I mean, I could have you licking envelopes.” “Disgusting.” Despite being used to sitting behind a desk all day, Levi was bored. He’d finished his work and he’d never had to do Christmas cards before, they just seemed unnecessary. Besides, Y/N was distracting him. He decided to tell her this. “How am I distracting you?” She scoffed with a smile, “I’m writing these cards, unlike someone.” “Well how am I supposed to focus with you across from me? You’re never here when I’m doing paperwork, and this is my free time.” Y/N rolled her eyes at the Captain, occasionally he got in one of these silly moods, but she loved it. She loved how this mood was reserved for her and nobody else.
“Well what would you rather do?” She asked, placing down her pen and clearing the desk. Levi sighed, thinking. In the meantime, she made her way around the desk, sitting in his lap and stirring him from his thoughts. “I mean, we have plenty of time to write these cards, I just love Christmas so much that I can’t stop myself from doing everything early, then I wonder why there’s nothing to be done later on.” She smiled, “I just remember how excited I used to be as a little kid, when my friends and I would go skating on the pond when it froze over… Christmas just has a magical effect.” She turned to Levi, who was gazing at her with a gleam of interest, “What?” “Tell me more about Christmas.” It suddenly struck her how Levi had never really celebrated Christmas, how he just saw it as some other day. He’d never had a Christmas before. “Well…” She sat and thought for a moment, “There are lots of things really, mistletoe for example, when you and another person are standing below it you must kiss… Or how about Christmas dinner, I love Christmas dinner.” “You sound like Sasha.” “Once you’ve tasted such a godly meal, so will you.” She stopped, looking at her lover with a smile, “I’m so glad I get to spend this Christmas with you.” Levi reached up and brushed a strand of H/C hair behind her ear, a small smile forming on his own lips at the thought of having his first Christmas with the woman he loved, “Me too.” His fingertips moving to her chin and pulled her lips to his, kissing her gently, “But I’m still not writing any more cards tonight.”

Day 21: Snow Day
It was unusually cold when Levi woke that morning, usually the air was just cool on his skin, but today it was a chill. He made his way over to the window, rubbing at the condensation to get a glimpse of the outside world. “Mornin’” Y/N chirped, almost making the Captain jump out of his skin. This woman was never awake before him, she read his expression of confusion, “You know I can’t resist a snow day.” She explained, clad head to toe in insulated clothing, the bobble of her hat moving as she spoke. “Come on, get dressed, I’m not gonna wait around all day.” She pointed to Levi’s clothes, ready on the dresser, “You’re welcome.”
Levi stepped into the cold, his glove clad hand holding Y/N’s, her face lighting up like a child in a candy store. One thing she loved was fresh, undisturbed snow. It was no wonder she’d not minded getting up, the brats couldn’t ruin this moment for her. She looked at him, beaming, before raising her leg and stepping into the snow, her foot sunk until the snow was just above her ankle, before she bolted into the white expanse.
“Levi! Think fast!” Y/N shouted, she’d had him making a snowman, but the melting snow trickling down his neck flipped a switch in him. He bent down, pressed snow together in his hands, and launched it at his girlfriend. Her shrieking beginning to rouse the others. Before long, the Scouts began to file out into the snow, joining in on the Ackerman vs. L/N war in the snow, many bewildered at the Captain with a smile. Some going as far as to pinch themselves to check that they weren’t still sleeping, because if he was smiling, it was a damned Christmas miracle. 
Eventually, Y/N and Levi retired from the battlefield, standing at the far end of the courtyard as they watched the others. Y/N’s nose adorably pink from the cold, matching Levi’s cheeks. “Hey Y/N.” Y/N turned to Levi, yesterdays grin spreading across her face as she saw what he was holding. “You’re getting your money’s worth, huh?” “Yes.”

Day 07: Giving Out Cards
“You know, we could just mail these.” Levi handed Y/N Connie’s card with a deadpan expression, she turned to him, rolling her eyes. “Maybe I spent ages writing personalised notes inside and like to see the smiles on people’s faces.” She replied, sticking out her tongue for a moment. “Christmas spirit?” Levi asked, raising a brow. She nodded happily as Connie finished reading his card. His face was lit by a smile as he hugged Y/N and said thank you, hesitating at the Captain. “You’re welcome.” Connie nodded, grateful for the escape from the awkward, before heading off to get back to his work before Levi noticed.
“See?” Wasn’t that even the slightest bit nice?” Y/N asked after handing out what seemed to be a million cards, each time determined to prove to Levi that it was, in fact, a lovely thing. It had started to amuse Levi, he could see her becoming a little more frustrated with every opened envelope, so he pretended to remain untouched. 
“I guess.” He replied nonchalantly, only a handful of cards remaining in his hand. Y/N frowned grumpily, taking the cards and handing him the one on top. “We’re switching roles.
”“Jeager!” Levi called, causing Eren to come running like a puppy to its master, Levi extended his arm, holding out the card. Gingerly, Eren took it, a confused expression on his face. Captain Levi never celebrated Christmas, everyone knew that, so why was he handing him a red envelope with white cursive and Christmas drawings? And why couldn’t he have done it inside where his hands weren’t numb from the cold and his fingers would function. He fumbled with the envelope, glancing up sheepishly. “Hang on sir,” He ran off towards the stables.
A golden light pierced through the overcast sky, the noise of the blast shaking the foundations of the Survey Corps Headquarters as the Scouts inside rushed to the nearest window. From the higher floors, they could see two figures running across the field to a cloud of steam being emitted from a pair of gigantic hands, with Eren standing in the middle. “Eren!” Eren looked up to see Y/N standing with Levi, “What happened?” Y/N then looked up, following Levi’s gaze to see that the gigantic fingers had opened the envelope. “I… I got a papercut…” “Well Y/N, I think you were right, giving out Christmas cards really is exciting.” Levi joked before turning to Eren “Hange is gonna have a field day with you, idiot.”

Day 22: Birthday Reminder
“So how are you feeling now that your birthday is three days away?” Y/N smirked, looking over her book to the Captain as he slipped on his pajamas, her eyes wandering over the rippling muscles of his toned body - a view she would never get bored of. Once dressed, Levi gave her a deadpan look. “Am I supposed to feel a certain way or was that just a shitty question?” Levi asked, moving over to the bed and slipping between the sheets, his arm around Y/N as she put her book aside and rested her head on his chest. “I don’t know, I guess as a kid things eventually change and you start to feel older...” Levi scoffed at this. “You’re calling me old?” He mocked offence as Y/N looked at him. She’d been forcing him to bed lately, the tired shadows under his eyes shrinking with each night of sleep. “What kind of punishment does that deserve... Well, Jean is on stable duty and Eren on toilets... I know just the thing.” 
Y/N moved away as she realized what he was about to do. She knew she couldn’t run from this man, he was too fast for her, but she could prolong the inevitable. Or not. Levi wrapped his arms tightly around his girlfriend, tickling her mercilessly as she shrieked and attempted to get away, but he only pulled her in tighter.  “Ah! Levi I... I hate tick-ling! Levi!” He stopped and looked at the woman below him, her hair messy and face red from her desperate attempt to escape, he brushed her hair from her hot face before kissing her gently. “To answer your shitty question, I feel lucky that I have you present.” “Was that a pun?” “Potentially.”

Day 17: Cookie Baking
“You sure you’re up for this?” Y/N asked, finishing putting out the ingredients to make Christmas cookies, Levi nodded, still feeling rough from yesterday’s sickness, but well enough to participate, a soft, wool blanket draped over his shoulders.
Together they followed the recipe, eventually presented with chocolate chip cookie dough to be cut into shapes. Y/N watched Levi as he rolled out the first ball, pinching off a piece and popping it into her mouth, he looked at her with a deadpan expression. “Wash your hands again, that was disgusting.” So, she did. Only to pinch of another piece. Again, he made her wash her hands. This cycle repeated for a while until Levi had enough, he turned to Y/N.
“Do you want salmonella that badly?” He asked, catching Y/N halfway through pinching her next bit of dough, she shrugged with a lopsided grin as Levi sighed. He dipped his finger into the flour before wiping it on the tip of Y/N’s nose, she looked at it for a moment, utterly adorable in Levi’s opinion. He’d wanted to do that for a while. She raised her brow at him before dipping her own hand in the flour, Levi’s eyes widening as she launched it in his direction.
He watched the white dust settle, Y/N laughing hysterically at the now flor-white Captain. “I can see every wrinkle, old man!” She joked, if it were anyone else, Levi would have been furious, but Y/N had a way of getting away with these things. He wiped at the flour with a nearby kitchen towel before getting the bowl and spoon from beside him and handing them to Y/N. “And you’re a child, now go lick the spoon or something.” He turned back to his cookie cutting. “Gladly.” She chirped, heading to the small dining table, but not without reaching over to pinch one last time.

It’s finally here! I’ve been working so hard to write all 25 days on time and now I get to share them with you guys, enjoy!
Day 01: Secret Santa
Everyone had been waiting excitedly for December to come and now that it was finally here, Levi had found the brats to be even more annoying as usual, asking for him to join a game of sorts that went by the name of Secret Santa. Personally, he found it ridiculous, surely people would easily guess their gifter, but this year was something special. It was Y/N’s first Christmas with the Survey Corps, having chosen to stay with Levi rather than return to her parents for the duration of Christmas. “After all,” She had said when he tried to persuade her otherwise, “You never know if we’ll be needed to protect the walls.” So, Levi had obliged, joining the Christmas tradition.
“Okay everyone, pick your person out of the hat, remember, if you get your own name, pop it back in or we can redraw!” Y/N beamed, holding out a hat with slips of paper inside, she was as excited as the rest of them for Christmas and that excitement was beginning to infect Levi too. Each person reached into the hat, reading the names and slipping them into their breast pockets before talking amongst themselves. “Y/N,” Levi beckoned her to a quieter corned of the room, “Not a word, but I don’t understand this game.” Levi murmured; Y/N looked at him as if he was the cutest thing ever, how could she not? Sometimes she forgot that he grew up underground and didn’t understand these customs, but that didn’t mean he wasn’t adorable. “Well, the person on the paper is who you have to get a gift for, you can’t tell anyone, it’s a secret. Then, we secretly bring them in here before the evening of the twelfth and open them, simple.” She smiled, “But if you need a hand, I’m happy to help.” Levi looked around before revealing his slip of paper, “Good, because I have no idea what to get.” Y/N glanced at the paper. “Tell you what, how about we go Christmas shopping together?” She offered, “That way I can help you, but don’t think you’ll be seeing any of my gifts to you.” She grinned, kissing him on the cheek “Now come on, lets get back before anyone gets suspicious.”

Day 03: Wrap Up Warm
Levi opened his eyes, the cold air tickling his lungs as he inhaled and forming momentary ghosts as he exhaled. It was colder than usual, freezing even, his exposed hands and face almost hurting from the cold temperature as he forced himself out of his warm cocoon and out of bed.
Levi stuck his head out of his door, startling one of the soldiers as they rushed off to early morning duties. “You, brat,” He called over, the young man making his way over sheepishly, “Why is it so damn cold in here?” He questioned, the soldier shrugging in response. “The guys that usually make sure the place is heated slept in this morning, or at least that’s what I heard, so we all gotta suffer I guess.” He answered. Levi dismissed him and he ran down the corridor, late to his morning tasks.
Levi stood in the middle of his office, contemplating the many ways he could remind the late risers remember to complete their duties, when Y/N appeared. She rubbed her eyes sleepily, hidden deep in their duvet as she smiled at the Captain in his pyjamas. “You aren’t seriously thinking of training outside again today, are you?” She asked, peeking out, her nose pink with a touch of cold. “They have to be prepared for anything, you know that.” He answered, walking over to her and wrapping her in an embrace, “And you already are, so I think you should stay here until it warms up.” He kissed the tip of her nose. She nodded, looking at him in a way that made him wish he could stay and cuddle all day, before running quickly off into her closet for a moment. She returned with a white scarf and wrapped it around his neck, it smelled of her perfume and the outdoors, “At least wrap up warm, okay?” He smiled, running the scarf through his hands. “I promise, besides, you’re the one who always says I’m the human radiator.” “It’s crazy how you don’t get cold, but hey, every Ackerman needs a scarf.” “And what about you?” “Oh I’ll be right here, waiting for it to warm up, just as you suggested.” She answered, he hugged her, gently squeezing her against him. “And if anyone complains, it’s an order.”

Day 19: Pantomime
The auditorium was abuzz with chatter as members of the Survey Corps, Garrison and Military Police alike joined for a single night for the matinee of the annual Christmas pantomime - hosted by members of each regiment, for everyone to enjoy. This year’s story, was the story of the retaking of Wall Maria. “Ugh, I can’t wait for this!” Hange was practically bouncing up and down in her seat beside Y/N, “Do you think the titan will be accurate Levi? They seemed to not want my input and information from my resea-” “Do you ever sit still, four eyes?” He interrupted, staring straight ahead, she blinked, processing his words, before laughing as if it was the most hilarious thing she had ever heard. 
The lights dimmed and the pantomime was underway, every key person from the retaking of the wall had been mocked to a painstaking extent, Levi included. After all, it was Christmas, he was hardly going to make them scrub the floors with a toothbrush again, right? The child playing Levi wandered onto the stage, looking simultaneously miserable and proud, his fake swords dragging on the floor, Y/N watched Levi’s reaction from the corner of her eye, unable to keep her own grin under wraps. “I am Captain Levi and despite my short stature, I am the one that will save humanity!” A small smirk appeared on the Captain’s face, even he had to find this mildly amusing. “No! I am!” Everyone knew that Jean had been cast as Eren. He hated that role, he was more interested in spending time with Mikasa, the guest star, than being this idiot. The entire Survey Corps erupted into laughter as they saw him strut onto stage, mocking the fifteen year old boy that Eren used to be. “No! Have I not already discussed this with you, brat?” Panto-Levi replied, causing Panto Eren to laugh. “I’m a fifteen meter titan, what will you do?”
Eventually, the pantomime wound to an end, the whole auditorium erupting into applause, jeering and whistles for the soldiers and children turned actors, everyone having loved the humorous take on their biggest victory to date. They were still chattering away as they left the theater, Levi, Y/N and Hange waiting by the cast door for their friends. Jean was the first to emerge, a bouquet in hand. “Ow! What was that for?” Eren asked Levi, rubbing the just-slapped spot on the back of his head. “You may not be Eren right now, but that was for before, brat.” He explained before bending down to the boy who had played Panto-Levi. “But you did an amazing job, do you want to do the honors and tell this idiot he will be shining my shoes for a week?”

Day 16: Levi With a Cold
Levi groaned, sniffing as he turned over in bed. Everything hurt. His head not only pounded but spun too. A day of work was not an option. “Hey, you okay?” Y/N propped herself up in bed beside him, she had thought something was up when he hadn’t woken with the sunrise as usual. Levi pulled the duvet closer, shivering, as he forced his eyes to open. “No.” His voice was hoarse, his throat rough, the sudden intake of air causing him to cough. Y/N’s brow furrowed, she felt his head, he was hot and clammy and most definitely not well.
“Trust me, this will make you feel better.” Y/N had taken the day off to care for Levi. She had propped him up and prepared her grandmother’s chicken soup, “This cures all ailments, I have yet to be failed.” She began to blow the liquid on the spoon, Levi clicked his tongue. “I can feed myself.” She shook her head. “It’s my turn to look after you, okay?” She kissed his pale forehead before spooning the soup into his mouth. “You spend so much time looking after me, you have to let me do the same for you, whether you like it or not.”
Levi took Y/N’s hand in his, a small smile on his lips. “Y/N, thank you. You don’t feel like you do, but you do so much for me, and I couldn’t imagine my life without you.” He ran his fingers over her knuckles, “I’d kiss you, but I don’t want you to get sick.” Y/N shook her head softly, placing the empty bowl on the nightstand and climbing onto the bed beside him, she rested her head on his shoulder. “Just give me extra kisses when you’re better, okay?”

Day 24: Christmas Eve
Levi had not expected the level of bottled-excitement that was Y/N today. All day, she’d been keeping her excitement on the down-low, only exploding when she got home from a hard days work. “It’s time!” She sang, stepping out of the bedroom clad in her new Christmas pajamas and planting a kiss on Levi’s lips, “I got you some too!” Levi looked at the pajamas on the bed, red flannel pajamas and a Santa hat. Not too bad. He slipped them on, earning a delighted squeal for Y/N. But he refused to wear that ridiculous hat.
“Please wear it.” Y/N asked, pouting slightly and doing that thing with her eyes that always made him melt. “No. Do I look like a fat man to you?” “You look incredibly handsome, but I’m sure that hat will make you look even better.” He rolled his eyes, putting the hat onto his head, “I also swiped a little something from your pocket today.” She smiled cheekily, pointing to the mistletoe on the roof, Levi had been wondering where that had gone. And how the hell had she put it up there on the ceiling. He looked back down and into the eyes of his one and only, running his thumb over her jaw before kissing her. He’d never been with someone he loved this much on Christmas and he was excited. Yes, he’d had the others here before and Isobel and Farlan long ago, but this was different. 
Y/N spent the night reading to Levi, she started with normal fairy-tales (a family tradition apparently) before moving on to traditional Christmas stories such as the legend of Saint Nicholas. Eventually, she fell asleep, snug against Levi by the warm fire. He eased her up gently, taking her to bed and kissing her nose whilst he crept out of their quarters. As much as Y/N loved the big tree in the Mess Hall, he wanted her to have the perfect surprise when she woke up, he was going to do everything in his power to make tomorrow the best Christmas she had ever had.

Day 06: Ugly Sweater
“Hey Levi, come here!” Y/N called from the study, Levi entered to see her unwrapping a brown-paper parcel on the desk, “It’s from my mother, I think I know what these are.” She worked a little more at the string before letting it fall open, the contents provoking an amused grin. “Ugly Christmas sweaters!” She exclaimed, holding up an ugly green jumper to show Levi. He forced a smile, looking at the blue and white snowflakes as Y/N turned to read the note that came with the gift. “She made sure to use Corps colours, so that we can wear them anytime!” She beamed, throwing Levi his and looking at her own. “I’m not sure they’re regulation.” Levi excused; Y/N shook her head. “It’s uniform colours and I happen to know Hange adores things like this, so you’ll be fine.” “Me?” Levi asked, Y/N nodded. “You didn’t really think I’d be wearing one? This is for Commander Hange, mother knows she has no chance of getting me into one of these. I have this instead.” She placed down the jumper and wrapped a blue scarf around her neck, the wool looked a lot less itchy than the jumpers. “I hope to see you wearing it out and about, Captain.” Y/N winked, taking Hange’s jumper out of the room, Levi turned the jumper over in his hands. As much as he didn’t want to wear it, the Christmas spirit seemed to be rubbing off on him, he’d be sure to wear it so Mrs. L/N could see.

Day 09: Christmas Traditions
“Hey Levi,” Y/N began, manoeuvring herself among the tangle of legs and sheets to face him, “Did you have any Christmases at all?” Levi raised a brow; they’d just spent a while under the sheets, and this was the pillow talk she wanted afterward? He studied her face, she looked serious, he sighed. “With my Mother, yes. But I don’t remember them, I had one with Kenny and a few with the gang.” He answered, Y/N’s eyes lit up. “I was so worried you’d never had a Christmas before, tell me about them.” She looked at him the way a child looked at candy, he rolled his eyes. “Kenny thought it was appropriate to give me a glass of whisky, I had a mouthful of that vile thing, I really don’t know what went through his mind when he thought it was a good idea to give his young nephew alcohol.” Y/N watched a small smile creep across his face as he reminisced, “With the gang, I’d tell them to save their money for themselves, but they always bought me a present.” He leaned back, picking something up from the nightstand. He handed Y/N his favourite teacup, the one he never used, “This is the only gift I still have, I made Erwin go back for it.” Y/N studied the China cup, the ornate gold designs swirling beneath her fingertips. “I used to get everyone something they’d forgotten they’d asked for; Isobel was the most excited always.” He sighed, brushing his hands through Y/N’s hair.
“You okay?” Y/N asked, gently placing down the cup and holding his head in her hand, her thumb running along his jaw, he nodded. “I met you next, that Christmas was the first time I’d ever experienced snow.” “You were so mad when I hit you with that snowball.” “You ruined a pristine thing and you paid the price for it.” His small smile had grown now, “And finally, we are actually spending the actual holiday together.” He kissed her gently, “I think this will be my favourite Christmas yet.” Y/N smiled at him. “Mine too, I love you, Levi.” “I love you too.”
