Author’s Note:
Just some depressing thoughts/ideas have been running through my mind so I decided to use it for a fanfic at least...







   Petra was picking papers off of ___’s desk, getting ready to fax them to her.
   “Morning, Levi.”
   “Morning Petra, where is  ___?”
   “She called off, but will work from home.” Levi knitted his eyebrows together. “I know, she’s never called off. I don’t know what happened, though. She said she’d likely be gone all week and would like the form to start working from home. So if you have anything you need her to do, you can give me the paperwork so I can fax it to her.”
   “We were supposed to have accounts meeting tomorrow,” Levi grumbled.
   “I can give her a call, to see when she can reschedule.” Levi nodded before leaving Petra to her work.


   Levi sighed as he signed papers, that ___ should be looking over. Petra, his assistant, had let him know about how  ___ would like to work from home from now on. He could barely process the thoughts of it and why she didn’t want to come in anymore. It was an option that the company had, but she had never shown interest in it. What was with this sudden change, she didn’t even talk to him about it. Petra knocked at his door, he told her to enter.
   “Sir, ___ sent back all of her numbers and let you know everything about the accounts through email. She also wanted me to tell you. ‘The best accountant in your office isn’t going to leave, but I need to be alone for a bit. I apologize for any inconvenience.’  That’s all she had said, but it seems like she got her work done faster than usual. So I think this may be a good thing.” Petra smiled at Levi.
   “Get me her contact information.” She gave him a confused look. “I’m going to visit her on my way home. I need to know why she wants to change everything and I have some papers I need her to sign.”
   “Yes, sir.” Petra came back in a few moments with the information he requested. “I also wrote where her spare key is, in case she can’t hear you at the door.”
   “Why do you know where it is?”
   “I’ve had to go pick up some things from her when she had scheduled days off. She’s in her backyard a lot, so she doesn’t hear the door.” Levi clicked his tongue in annoyance. “Is there anything else that you may need Mr. Ackerman?” His assistant smiled at him.
   “Do you have any idea why she’s doing this?”
   “No, sir. Last we talked about anything personal; her family was healthy and her fiance was looking into a house for them.”
   “I didn’t know she was engaged.”
   “Oh yeah. She’s been with him for about 5 years.”
   “Oh,” Levi said with a bit of pain in his voice.
   “Sir, don’t feel bad! I know you flirted with her a lot, but I thought you knew she was taken. And you were just teasing her. Like you did in high school with a couple of girls.”
   “It makes sense on why she always declined me.” Levi sighed and looked down at the papers on his desk.
   “She always said that she loved your persistence and confidence. That if she wasn’t taken, she would take up your offers for dates. Sir, I still think you should go check on her.”
   “You do?” Petra smiled and nodded.


   Levi pulled up to ___’s house, with his briefcase in hand, he went to knock on her door. After a few moments of silence, he knocked again. He sighed and moved the potted plant on her porch, removing a brick from the house, which was hollowed out with the spare key inside. He quickly unlocked the door and put the key back. Walking inside, he was a bit impressed by how she had styled home and more importantly how clean everything was.
   “Ms. ___?” Levi called out, which was answered with a bark and a husky came bounding around the corner to growl at him. “Hey, you must be Tobi.” He kneeled slightly and held out his hand for the dog to sniff him. Tobi seemed to approve as he turned to walk away from Levi, Levi followed him.
   Tobi lead Levi to the backyard, once ___ was in sight, Tobi ran over to the edge of the pool and started whining at ___. She was floating on her back in her bikini, which made Levi blush a bit. He had never seen her outside of suits or jeans.
   “Tobi! Shush, baby.” The dog whined louder. “I’ll drag you into the pool, don’t make me do it.” She giggled, Tobi yelped at her. “That’s it!” She laughed while fixing her into a standing position but froze when she saw Levi. Her face went aflame as if some tossed red paint on her face.
   “Mr. Ackerman!” She swam up to the edge of the pool, quickly walked over to her patio and wrapped her towel around herself. Levi eyed her body the whole time, enjoying the view as she did so.
   “Hello,  Ms. ___. I need you to sign some papers, mainly some new accounts and the form for you to start doing work from home.” Levi made his normal blank stare.
   “Oh, of course! Let me guide you to my office and I’ll change.” Levi gave her a curt nod and she walked back into the house, Tobi walking beside her the whole time. Almost to her office, Levi noticed a room, empty and messy, catching his attention, because of the mess inside.
   “What happened in there?” ___ paused for a moment before walking over and closing the door.
   “Please ignore that room.” Levi decided to ask after he got the signatures. She opened her office door. “Please make yourself comfortable. I’ll be a few moments.” Tobi followed after her as she left. Levi placed his briefcase on her desk and looked over to an accent piece that had pictures on it, noticing one face down. Curious, he walked over picking up the picture, to see ___ in a cute sundress and a guy hugging her from behind. It was a very endearing but it only hurt his heart. ___ took the photo out of his hand.
   “Please do not touch my photos.” She placed it back down, making sure it was face down.
   “Why is that one picture face down?” Levi raised an eyebrow at her as she walked over to her desk and sat down.
   “Sir, you wanted me to sign papers. I do not want to share my personal life with you.” ___ stated coldly, it wasn’t the first time she told him this. This time was different, though, her eyes were sad. “Please sit, so we may get the papers done.”
   Levi walked over and opened his briefcase, handing her a folder. “These are our new accounts, I need them put into the accounting system.” She nodded before placing the folder in a basket. “Then this is the paper form we need to fill out for your transfer technically.”    She took the paper from him, started filling it out, signing it at the bottom. Levi was looking over her shoulder, correcting her on the date.
   “Sir, we’ve talked about this about 23 times. Personal space and not looking over my shoulder. I don’t like it.”
   “Well, you put down the wrong date so it’s a good thing I am. Also, you didn’t fill out the reason for the transfer.” He noticed he tense up before writing, ‘personal/family issues.’
   “You need to sign this too.” She handed him her pen, he touched her hand and leaned over her to sign it. “Is there anything else?”
   “How do you want to go about doing our meetings from now on?” He eyed her, she was clearly still wearing her bikini but had a t-shirt and jeans over it.
   “We can email for the weekly meetings and we can do Skype or something for the monthly meetings.” She shrugged. “Do you have a better solution?” She turned in her chair to face him.
   “Yeah, just show up to the fucking office for work.”
   “I could probably come in for meetings.”
   “What the fuck is going on with you?”
   “Sir, I don’t want to let you into my personal life. Work and personal need to be separate.”
   Levi placed his hands on her chair, trapping her there. “___.” He stared into her eyes as she blushed from him saying her first name. “You are an important asset to me. I want to know why my main accountant is staying home.”
   “Because I’m depressed, I have been all this time. Now, I can’t function and pretend anymore. I want to be in this, I want to learn how to climb out and I can’t make myself get out my bed let alone go into the office. But I can do my work from my bed.”
   “What made everything go south so badly?”
   ___ teared up. “My fiancee found someone else and left me. I’m alone now. I’ve never been alone with my depression and now it’s swallowing me.” A few tears leaking down her face, her bottom lip trembled a bit as she tried to hold back.
   Levi sighed and gave her a small look, placing a hand on her cheek wiping away her tear.
   “It’s his loss, my gain.” Levi kissed her forehead. “Let me heal you.” Levi kissed her gently, she only looked at him, with dismal (e/c) eyes. He glanced at her lips, then to her eyes, he kissed her once more. “I’ve loved you for years. And he’s a fucking fool if he won’t appreciate you, I will.” More of her tears to started to escape. “You’re beautiful, even when crying.”
   ___ gulped for a moment, before finally giving in, letting all of the tears go. She reached up, wrapping her arms around Levi’s neck, trying to muffle her cried into his neck. Levi bent down more to pick her up, carrying her to the couch in her office. As he sat down, he placed her on his lap, before wrapping his arms around her tightly.
   “I’ll heal you with the love that I have harbored for years.” ___ rest her head on his shoulder, clinging to him. He couldn’t help but smirk. “I never thought I would be able to hold you, it feels amazing to be here for you.” He kissed her forehead. “Take your time loving me. For now, I want to be your support. Even if you never say that you love me. I want you to be happy, your happiness means everything to me.”
   ___ closed her eyes. “I still want to stay home.”
   “I’ll bring you work every day you stay home.” She nodded. “At least you’re mine now.”
   “I never agreed to that.”
   “You will, one day.”
I've had this completed for a few months, I don't know if it's any good. Let me know what you think.
I've been struggling with depression, so reader-chan is depression but has been suppressing it for a long time

Thank you for any favorites ahead of time, if there are any.
