Deprivation

Erwin awoke before dawn. His bed was cold, his underwear was tight, and drool coated his chin. He wiped his face and sat up.

What a miserable contrast to the last few mornings.

The first thing he needed to do was take care of the bulge between his legs. Ever since his romantic life with Levi had heated up, his libido, normally a low smoulder, had erupted into flames, and the next two days were going to be unbearable if he didn 't give himself release. Unfortunately, his full bladder was sure to be distracting. He swung his legs over the edge of the bed and waited; the hallways were usually quiet before reveille, but he didn 't want to chance on anyone in this worked up state. Once his body had calmed down, he gathered his toiletries and pulled on a pair of pants.
