"Well first of all your penmanship is shit," Levi leaned closer.

I am-

"AS IF YOURS IS ANY GOOD-" I pouted pulling away again.

SO WHAT MY HANDWRITING IS QUESTIONABLE ://///

"Better than yours," he retorted.

bETTeR thAn yOuRS

"Do you feel good about that?"

"Very."

"Shut up."

"Do you want my help or not?" Levi sighed, glancing away.

Yes :/

"What if I just tell you what I want to say and you write the actual words down?"

Like I'll communicate the vibe that I'm going for and you figure out the actual words

"She knows what my handwriting looks like, idiot," Levi flicked my forehead.

THAT HURTS

"I feel like she's going to make fun of my handwriting in her next letter :/"

YOU'VE MADE ME ALL SELF CONSCIOUS ABOUT IT

"She will."

WOW :/ OK THAT HELPS A LOT <3 THANKS FOR BEING SO NICE LEVI <3

"You could at least try to be nicer about it," I paused. "Are you incapable of giving compliments?"

PLEASE GET BETTER

"It's not part of my job," he replied matter of factly, writing something on the edge of the paper I had been using.

LAME

"Friends should be able to compliment each other," I leaned over to read what he was writing- but he quickly covered up the paper with his hand.

"You said that friends bully each other."

WELL THEY CAN DO BOTH

"It's called duality- you could use some of it <3"

As is every time I think you're about to do something nice u do a full 180 and start acting grumpy

THIS BEHAVIOR IS NOT ATTRACTIVE

PLEASE IMPROVE URSELF <3

"I'm not helping you anymore."

IS HE MAD???

"Did that upset you?" I bit back my laughter.

PLEASE HELP BUT ALSO- WHAT ARE YOU??? FOUR ????

"Whatever, I'll just write it by myself," I grumbled under my breath.

OK Y/N THIS TIME FOR REAL

'dear 1st princess <3 how r u ???'

"Don't tell me you're going to send it like that," Levi glanced down at my letter.

OF COURSE NOT

IT'S A FIRST DRAFT

*THIRD

"I thought you weren't helping me," I spat out, blocking the letter from view.

"I'm-" Levi paused, sighing loudly, "fine I'll help you."

:// are you sure about that ://

"I only want your help if you're going to be nice about it," I glanced up at him. "So? Promise?"

I WILL BE PETTY AND RUDE :/

"Let her know that you've had trouble adjusting- 'you aren't used to the cold.'" Levi reached over me to grab a pen, "pretend you don't know what she's talking about."

WOW YOU DIDN'T EVEN PROMISE

BUT WHATEVER

YOU GET A PASS THIS TIME

"You've written 'I'm feeling sexy'" Levi paused, "change that."

ITS TRUE

"I'm doing well, Levi takes good care of me," I hummed, "is that better?"

It's a bit awkward complimenting him when he's right there

Especially bc he hasn't done anything-

LIKE I ALMOST GOT POISONED ??? WHAT DID HE DO ABOUT THAT ???

"I'm adjusting well," Levi corrected.

THAT'S A ONE WORD DIFFERENCE :/// SAME THING LEVI

"Ok fine," I quickly corrected it, "what about the part that comes next? 'Thank you for looking out for me.'"

A lie <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

"It's comforting to know that someone in your position is looking out for me, say that."

I HATE THIS

"I hate sucking up to her."

"It's more painful for me," Levi groaned, rubbing his temple.

"It isn't fun for you to talk to your ex girlfriend?" I jabbed him in the side- teasing.

I'm sure she's having a lot of fun holding you above me right now.

"She's not my ex-girlfriend- she's not my ex anything."

SURE

"I'm pretty sure she thinks she's your ex-wife so :/"

"Focus," Levi flicked the side of my face.

OW

"YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO HURT ME!"

"You're the one who's bringing up shit that makes me want to flick you."

"RUDE RUDE RUDE- LEVI THAT WAS BULLYING :/"

"Friends are allowed to bully each other," a shit eating grin spread across his features.

IM

I REGRET EVER SAYING THAT

IT'S A PAIN :/ HE'S GOING TO USE THAT EXCUSE EVERY TIME

"FRIENDS CAN BULLY EACH OTHER WITH WORDS :/ YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO FLICK ME UNTIL WE'RE BEST FRIENDS."

"I'm not your best friend?" He feigned hurt- his smile still persistent.

ABSOLUTELY NOT

"BEST FRIEND STATUS IS RESERVED FOR SPECIAL PEOPLE."

"And? What does it take to be someone special to you?"

He has to know what he's doing

"WELL YOU-" I paused, "I guess someone special is someone you love?"

I haven't really thought about it too much.

"In that case," his smile widened as his voice dropped to a low whisper, "I love you Y/N."

What.

"Levi I-" I stammered after a long silence.

How am I supposed to react to that.

"I get to flick you as much as I want now right?" He made and held eye contact with me.

Right we were doing that-

"I guess?" I was still out of it.

What just happened.

"Focus Y/N, I was just kidding-" He rolled his eyes tapping the paper again.

Just kidding

"Right- yeah- ok," I took a deep breath trying to refocus myself.

Ok

"I'm still going to flick the shit out of you- even if I was kidding," he chuckled- moving on quickly.

Right...

"Uhuh, yeah sure," I nodded trying to keep my emotions from spilling out onto my face.

I don't even know what I'm feeling.
