Everyone sat silently in their seats, while other tables still conjured up conversation after conversation. We stared at each other with confusion, most of them looking back at the door like Levi would suddenly return to the table.
" Did Captain Levi just leave?" A boy asked. He had a conflicting look in his eyes, as Eren pushed the bench seat back in.
" Yeah, he did." I reassured, taking my tray in my hands.
God was this awkward now.
" Does anyone have any dishes their done with? I'll go ahead and take them."
A few of them handed over their dishes, thanking me while I piled them on top of one another. They slowly started talking again as I listened through the hall.
My ears turned up, not one sound came from the following corridor. You could probably hear a nail dropping by now.
For a moment as I dropped the dishes off, I contemplated the world where I had followed after him. If I had, then I would have easily been told off again. What a jerk.
Sasha scooted past me, dropping a few trays next to mine as we both greeted one another.

" Also, you guys aren't far from my age, so I'd be A-OK with you referring to me more as a friend." I beamed, Sasha's eyes lighting up as we spoke.
" Awesome! Only you though, not with Captain L-"
" Hm?" I puzzled, her words suddenly coming to a whisper.
Sasha's eyes were drawn to my side, and her lips were sealed tight as I looked to her.
Levi walked neatly by me, having a look at me for a split second before turning around and disappearing behind Sasha and I. He decided to return quickly, but lunch had almost concluded already. I peered over my side, curious, to see him turn his body back to face mine.
