When Levi 's eyes open that morning, he feels lighter. He doesn 't remember why he felt so heavy and blue last night, but it 's all behind him now.

He presses his face in your hair.

He 's glad to have you back in his arms. He thinks back to the last two months. For whatever reason, the memories seem light and airy, but he can 't put his finger on why.

He left you behind and went back to the Wing of Offence. He worked odd jobs, tried to keep his mind off things.

His mind fills with gutting guilt. He left you to fend for yourself and had he been there when the coup happened, maybe he could 've helped you escape.

He was seized one night and dragged to a dark cell. He was left there on minimal food and water for two months, only hearing rumours of you being starved until you caved and agreed to Zeke 's demands.

His eyes darken.
