REPUBLISHED: Chapter eight

6:00am
Ceremony Day

I woke up with the sunlight hitting my eyes, I groaned loudly and put the covers over my head. Then I felt someone get on top of me harshly.

Sasha:"Good morning sleepyhead!"
Y/N:"POTATO GIRL!" I screamed
She slightly pouts and removes herself from me.
Sasha:"You're mean!" She whined
Damn, what a nice way to wake up a person. I lift myself up from bed and began getting ready for the ceremony. Today is the day we will know who are the 10 cadets who made it.
I put my uniform as usual and put my hair in a ponytail. I always have my hair down for some reason I don't really like having it up, it bother me.
Sasha:"Y/N, someone sent this for you. And I think I know how it is~~" she said teasingly while poking my sides
I blinked in "confusion" and said
Y/N:"I don't know what you are talking about."
Sasha:"Oh come on Y/N, don't ask dumb. You know...you and captain Levi-"
Y/N:"Ew no Sasha, he's the captain I would never do that."
Sasha:"Yeah yeah whatever you say, but just be careful. You don't want to get caught"
I nodded and sigh while putting my boots on.
Y/N:"I know, it's going to be hard to hide it"
Sasha:"SO YOU DO LIKE HIM!" She jumped happily
I ran to her and covered her mouth.
Y/N:"Shhhh! Be quiet they are going to hear you"

I shakes my head while chuckling a bit and turned around to see what probably Levi sent. It was a bouquet of red roses and it had a note on it.

Good morning brat, I hope you like this flowers. When you read this note, please meet me up in the roof .
Love, Levi

A smiled formed in my face and head up to the roof. When I opened the door Levi was standing waiting for me to come.
Y/N:"Levi"
He turned around when he heard my voice.
Levi:"Did you get my note?"
Y/N:"Yes I did, arigato"
Levi:"Mm"
I stood next to him and faced forward to see the scouts preparing for the ceremony.
Y/N:"Are you excited about the ceremony, Levi"
Levi:"Tch, same boring ceremony. Nothing exciting."
Y/N:"Come on don't be that boring"
I hit his arm playful
Y/N:"Also why did you wanted to me come here to the roof for?"
Levi:"To see you"
Y/N:"But you see me everyday"
I blinked at him
Levi:"Well, remembered that place I wanted to take you too, I'm going to take you at night when everyone is asleep."
Y/N:"Don't you think we will get caught?"
Levi:No, we won't, trust me"
Y/N:"I trust you"
He then pulled me closer to him, I could feel his warm breath on my lips. I stared at his beautiful grey blue eyes, I could see something special about him. Something that I never seen in a guy, is he really that in love with me? If he is, I feel the same way.
His face got closer to mine and was about to kiss me but then he hesitated and backed away slowly.
I looked away awkwardly and grabbed a piece of my hair trying to avoid eye contact.
Levi:"So that's our plan today, we will meet at the horses cabins, okay?"
Y/N:"Okay, I'll be there"
Levi nodded and headed back downstairs to the mess hall. I stood there looking up at the sky.
What was I thinking? That he was going to kiss me? I mean I wouldn't mind if he did but...why did he stopped?
For whatever reason I should avoid overthinking.

12 hours later

The ceremony was about to start and everyone was standing in front of Erwin outside of the headquarters. I went to my spot and puts my two arms behind my back.

Erwin:"Attention! We are now here to finally announce the 10 cadets who made it top of the class. If I mention your name, please step forward.
Let's begin.
10th place goes to Krista Lenz
9th place goes to Sasha Braus
8th place goes to you Connie Springer
7th place goes to Marco Bott
6th place goes to Jean Kirsten
5th place goes to Eren Jaeger
4th place goes to Annie Leonhart
3rd place goes to Bertolt Hoover
2nd place goes to Reiner Braun
And finally our first place cadet goes to
Mikasa Ackerman

Congratulations to all, you guys will have 3 days to decide what division you'll like to be.
First is the Stationary Guard, second is Military Police and finally the Survey Corps.
Everyone else we will assign your divisions or if we see your hard work during expeditions me, commander Hange or captain Levi will decide.
But I do have one question to everyone, even if you weren't the 10 top cadets...are you willing to sacrifice your life and die and join the Survey Corps or leave to the other divisions."

The cadets started to leave one by one, the top ten cadets except for Annie, she left. Armin, Ymir, and me stayed.

Erwin:"Alright then. Welcome to the Survey Corps new recruits. Sacrifice your life for humanity, now salute! And do it like you mean it! Shinzu wo Sasageyo!"

We all put our hand over our heart.

"Sir!"

I looked at Levi who was in the corner standing right next to Hange. He closed his eyes and lowered his head a bit.
I am proud of myself, I will finally make my mom and brother, Terry proud.

The End.
