Chapter 342: Through Our Actions

Mia sighed as she laid down on her bed and rested her head on her pillows. Teaching Wena had been fun, but it also did a number on her voice as her throat strained from the amount of talking she had to do. Sure, she was talkative, but she wasn’t that talkative that her vocal cords would be able to withstand hours upon hours of constant teaching.

"At least I’m finally back in my room..."

She couldn’t help but chuckle at her own words. Technically, it was also Levi’s room now since they were married, but they still had their own rooms since they haven’t told anybody yet. She just knew that they’d immediately rectify that issue once the word got out, but for now, they’ll have to settle with using each other’s rooms whenever it was convenient.

"Mia?"

Sure enough, a bright smile spread across her face as Levi entered her room. He didn’t even bother waiting for her to answer the door, simply barging in like he owned the place.

"I’m in bed," she called out to him. "And lock the door on your way in, will you?"

A certain thrill shot through her spine as she heard the sound of her door locking. Immediately, memories of last night’s almost session flooded back into her mind, and all of a sudden, a thought came to her that never really did back when they were already smacking lips with one another.

Did Levi have some experience under his belt?

"Done and done," Levi casually called out to her as he made his way to her side. "I locked your door, and I bought you some stuff as well."

Sitting up, Mia raised an eyebrow at the rather expensive bottle of wine her husband just brought to her. She knew for a fact that he wouldn’t splurge on something like this without a reason, and she was very eager to find out what it was for.

"What’s the occasion?" she directly asked.

"Hey now, is us getting married not enough to warrant this bottle of wine?" Levi chuckled. "I would’ve thought that such a day would be special enough to splurge a bit."

"True, but I have a feeling that there’s more to it than just that," Mia cheekily postulated. "Are you planning on getting me drunk to have sex with? Cause you don’t really have to do that."

...

...

The silence that followed after her words had been deafening, and while Levi had reddened up immediately after she said those words, Mia only blushed after her husband remained unresponsive for a good ten seconds. It honestly felt like she had just tripped on a landmine, making the room explode with awkward tension as both of them clearly had eyes for one another and what was underneath each other’s clothes.

"U-Uhm... I would like that, yes," Levi replied after what felt like ages. "I... I want us to do it..."

It was like their situations were reversed now. Mia had been the one to ask him that question, but now it was her turn to suddenly feel the pressure of wanting to make love with someone else. Despite all of her bravado, she had zero experience with lovemaking, and a part of her started wishing that he would somehow take the lead this time.

In fact, why wish for it when she could just tell it him straight?

"C-Can... Can you..."

That was if she could even say it in the first place.

"What is it, my love?"

Her eyes widened as her ears registered the words he just used. Has he ever called her that before? Why would he choose now to do so? Why now when she was at her most flustered?!

"C-C-Can you lead?" she weakly stammered, her heart hammering too hard for her throat to properly function. "I-I wanna do it..."

***

Levi blinked as he heard Mia’s words. Already, he felt himself getting hard, but his own inhibitions were also rapidly growing with just how nervous he was.

"S-Sure," he nodded, pushing through the anxiety as he raised his hand up to her chin. "I’ll do my best."

Seeing her blush at his words spurred Levi on despite his apparent lack of experience. Just doing what he saw in his research, he put up an act of confidence, making sure that Mia would at least feel comfortable through what was obviously an awkward first-time experience for them.

The two of them then stared at each other for another fifteen seconds of silence, Levi doing his best not to freeze up as his eyes darted towards the first thing he saw that he could use as an icebreaker. "Want some wine?"

Mia froze in front of him for a brief second before she nodded. "O-Okay?"

Moving quickly, Levi gave both himself and Mia a glass of wine. If anything, some liquid courage might thaw this barrier of awkwardness between them, and it would smoothen out everything else that might come their way once they were... they were making love...

"L-Levi?"

"Yes?!" he stammered out in surprise.

"I... Can I have another glass?"

"Oh sure!"

Grabbing the bottle, Levi poured Mia another helping of alcohol. Then another. And another. Somewhere down the line, he also began trying to match his wife’s pace as they drank to their heart’s content. Slowly but surely, barriers started to fall as their inhibitions finally gave way.

"W-Why are we so awkward with each other anyway?" Mia chuckled, her face red from all the alcohol. "Haven’t we almost done it a while ago?"

"Not sure," Levi smiled, his own glass now empty as he stared at her. "Maybe it’s because we’re afraid of letting each other down?"

"Not maybe. It’s definitely that," Mia laughed, her eyes starting to glaze over as she lovingly looked at him. "But now.... Now can we do it?"

If he wasn’t in any degree of being tipsy, Levi would’ve probably blushed and stammered at his wife’s offer. But with liquid courage spurring him on, he simply nodded as he leaned towards her. "Sure thing, my love... I’m sure we have a lot of things to tell each other through our actions."
