Part II is complete (this will be the last part)! Very long, so enjoy~

Note: *Kuding tea – just very bitter tea

Levi sighed out of annoyance.

It had been two weeks since he saw Ackerman's smile and it just would not get out of his head. Her smile is the last image he sees before going to sleep and it is the first image when he wakes up in the morning. With another sigh, he sipped his tea in an attempt to calm himself.

It was getting seriously ridiculous.

Levi was a man who does not get distracted easily. However, his eyes would wander at her direction every time he sees her. It was frustrating, and Hanji's comment earlier this week crawled back to his mind:

"I think you have a little crush on her!"

Damn four-eyes. Further to his annoyance, he would literally hear it as if Hanji was right next to him. Every breakfast, lunch, and dinner, he would look at Mikasa, silently hoping to see that smile again… unfortunately, the odds were against him.

There was only one absolute solution to his problem. One answer to solve his distress over the past two weeks.

He had to see that smile again.

Hanji cackled, arms crossed over her stomach and all.

Levi fought the urge to slap himself out of embarrassment.

Of course Hanji would know.

"I knew you've been smitten ever since that night," she wiped her eyes of the tears of laughter. "But I never knew you were this desperate!"

As her laughter died down and she saw the seriousness of Levi's face, she decided to help her friend out. Of course, she would have helped him under any condition. "Okay, from what we saw, I would say Mikasa has a sweet tooth."

"Highly unlikely," Levi opposed, shaking his head. "She drinks the Kuding tea for God's sake, and I thought my tea was bitter enough."

Hanji hummed in agreement, "And how she keeps a straight face while drinking it, I'll never know… Well, we'll just have to get more pudding."

"Pudding?" a quiet, soft voice asked.

Levi and Hanji turned around to see Mikasa, a stack of papers in one hand and they were clutched to her chest, as she stood at the corner turn of the hall.

"Ah, Mikasa!" Hanji clasped Mikasa's free hand with both hands. "We were just talking about you!"

Again, he had the urge to slap himself. And Hanji.

Her head cocked to the side in curiosity, "What about me?"

"Nothing," Levi snapped, glaring at Hanji for being so troublesome and meddling. He glanced at the stack of papers in her hand, "Are those for me?"

"Yes, Corporal," Mikasa nodded. He couldn't help but notice her fingers were a little flustered as she handed it to him. She cleared her throat a little awkwardly and began to speak, "Uh, ah-Commander Erwin told me- ah, I mean… he ordered me to help you with the paperwork."

Levi raised an eyebrow, lingering on her choice of words, "Ordered?"

She nodded again, her lips set in a straight line.

"Well!" Hanji inserted rather loudly. "I guess I'll take my leave then. Have fun!" She patted Miaksa's shoulder and winked at Levi before disappearing around the corner.

With a sigh, Levi opened the door to his room, gesturing Mikasa to enter first. "Take a seat," he said, closing the door after he entered as well.

Throughout the hour, Levi would glance shortly at her as they sorted through the papers. She was very efficient in rewriting the notes and reports to a more eligible reading and he couldn't help but admire the way she wrote: an elegant script, akin to his own but had a feminine note. She kept a blank face as she did her work quietly; there were no traces of her being uncomfortable alone with him, so that eased him a little.

He wouldn't admit it out loud, but he enjoyed her company. It was different from Hanji's blabbering and he couldn't remember the last time he was alone with someone for a long comfortable silence.

He glanced outside and noticed that it was late already. They had only finished half of the paper work and from Mikasa's report, Erwin wanted them done by tomorrow morning.

With a grunt and a screech of his chair, Mikasa looked up from what she was doing, "Sir?"

"It's late," sighing as he stretched his back. "I'll go get us some tea."

Surprised, Mikasa offered, "I could brew some tea in your stead, if you would like that, Sir?"

He couldn't deny the surge of delight as she called him "Sir." The brat knew her manners… if she uses them properly.

"Tch, I can do it. Besides… I don't want to be within a kilometer of that Kuding tea of yours."

Mikasa scoff, a smile threatening to show on her lips, "I was actually going to brew some lemon and jasmine tea, Sir, which is what you always drink."

How… raising an eyebrow, he asked, "And how do you know I drink that?"

"Well, how do you know I drink Kuding tea?" she countered.

He caught the rose hue on her face, as she scoffed again, looking outside the window, "It doesn't matter, anyway… I just smell it in your breath sometimes." Feeling embarrassed, Mikasa abruptly stood up, pulling the end of her scarf to cover half her face, mumbling, "I'll get the tea, Sir."

Levi chuckled as he watched her walk fast towards the door and out of his room.

He tapped his fingers on his desk impatiently. It had been more than ten minutes since she disappeared. Brewing the tea shouldn't take more than a few minutes. He was about to stand up and look for her when he heard a knock.

"Sir," Mikasa's muffled voice called out the door.

Standing up and opening the door, he saw her carrying a big tray: a small tea kettle, two cups, and two plates with dinner. But what surprised him the most was the presence of another food on the tray.

Pudding.

"I apologize for taking so long, Sir," Mikasa said softly as he let her enter the room and setting the tray down on his spare table. "Commander Erwin insisted, ah-I mean ordered me on bringing dinner… and he said that you would not mind."

Ordered.

Of course Erwin would know.

He glared at the pudding with distaste.

"Well, that food won't eat itself," ignoring Mikasa's roll of her eyes at his sarcastic jab.

Surprisingly, their dinner was relaxing. They had small conversations; they started with talking about the weather today, then to training and 3DMG techniques. He watched as Mikasa sipped the warm lemon and jasmine tea after finishing the dinner plate. He was glad that, as stubborn as she is, she keeps a healthy diet.

Pudding was the only thing left in their course.

Levi cursed at the heavens, concluding that this was all Hanji's idea from the beginning and he could almost guarantee that Erwin decided to tag along.

He watched intently as Mikasa quietly took a scoop of her pudding and placed it in her mouth.

There it was.

That smile that haunted him for two weeks. Right in front of him.

She was in her own little world, eyes closed, cheeks flushing, lips in a sweet smile as she finished her pudding.

He would regret it, or he would take pride in his brashness, but nothing in the world, not even Titans, would have stopped him.

He leaned in and pressed his lips against hers.

Eyes closed, he reveled on the sweet taste and the softness of her lips.

Mikasa snapped her eyes open and let out a muffled squeak as she felt pressure against her lips. Frozen for a few seconds, fascinated by the soft, warm lips in contact with hers, she came into realization that it was her Corporal kissing her right now.

She couldn't help but respond to him.

Levi tore his mouth away from her, letting her breathe as he could hear her pant heavily, "Mikasa…"

"Wait," she said breathlessly as she placed a hand on his cheek and gently pushed his face away from hers. "What… why…" Mikasa breathed out, a little confused from what just happened.

He was an idiot. He would surely beat himself up for letting this happen. He had more self-control than this; it wasn't her fault, it was his. Feeling shameful from his spur of the moment, "Ah- I apologize, Mikasa, I-

"Corporal," she giggled slightly, still breathless. It was the first time he ever heard such a sound from her. It made his face feel warm. "No need for an apology."

"That was… wow," she mumbled to herself, blushing and her fingers touched her lips.

"…Yeah," he mumbled dumbly. Well, what now?

"…That was my first kiss, you know."

Oh? Levi raised an eyebrow. At her age, he wouldn't be surprised if she engaged herself in certain activities. She was a teenager, after all. Thinking about her age… Levi felt an unease in his stomach, but glancing at the girl in front of him, there were not traces of disgust.

Smirking, he replied teasingly, "Why? Did you wish it was Eren?"

Flushing brightly, she smacked his face, "He's my brother!"

He laughed, rubbing his cheek, "Hitting your superiors now? Do you want to get suspended? Then you wouldn't be able to protect your precious brat."

"Shut up," she mumbled, returning her attention to the other pudding. But not before adding at the end, "…sir."

Stealing Levi's pudding from the tray, she gave an adoring smile as she was about to eat the scoop of pudding.

"Give it back."

Cheeky girl, he thought as Mikasa placed the scoop in her mouth.

"Then try and take it from me," she grinned, taking another spoonful.

Cute.

As soon as the spoon left her mouth, he once again pressed his lips against hers. This time, more fervently. Gladly, Mikasa dropped the pudding cup on the tray and clutched her fingers on Levi's hair, kissing him eagerly.

His hands stroked her sides and they wound up on her waist, but couldn't pull her closer to his body. "Fucking desk," he mumbled as she whimpered, "Levi," before her lips attacked his again.

He would definitely thank Hanji and Erwin for this later.

But that was the last thing on his mind as Mikasa untied his cravat and started to unbutton his shirt.

Well, there you go! It's done, I only planned this to be a short fic. But, should I go further? xD I'm no innocent girl.

I hope I leave you satisfied (or dissatisfied, in a good way) :D I will be writing more RivaMika (I'll have something new within a few days), so stay tuned!
