You finally got a hang of this stupid equipment, swinging from roof to roof, trying to loosen the metal roping.
Your hand slid slightly, loosing your grasp on the equipment handles. Tightening your grip on your other hand, you swing straight toward a house. Bending your knees to brace the impact, the flat of your feet hit the wall of the home.
A loud thud illuminated through the small village. Extending your knees, pushing off the wall you shot backward. Switching your weight toward the other side of your waist, you gripped back onto the handle.
A sigh of relief escaped you as you caught your breath. Gasping, rough air entered your lungs, as you swung through the air. The harsh air felt as if your lungs were about to explode, you released the breath and swung back home.
You finally released the equipment from the post it was attached to and it pulled back to your waist band. You slid through the gravel lightly scattered on the floor, sliding into someone's ankles.
"WATCH WHERE YOURE GOING" a guy shouts.
You look up as the dirt puffs around you, it was Eren, a titan shifter.
"Sorry, I'm still trying to get a hang of this stuff." you says wiping the dirt off your pants and standing up.
"It's not that hard.." he says, trailing off in annoyance.
"Sorry, I'll ask someone for help so I don't mess up next time." you say mockingly.
"Well- I could teach you, but don't waste my time" Eren says.
"Why would you want to help? You were mad at me like 2 seconds ago." you respond in disbelief.
"Well I was just offering. Levi will be a lot worse than I will." he says shrugging simply.
"True. When do you think we could start the lessons?" you question, trying to schedule a day.
"Uh, tomorrow? Since today's a holiday ya know?" he asks staring throughout the plain town.
"Meh, Valentine's day isn't that important." you say, kicking the dirt out of the bottoms of your shoes.
"It would be more fun if you celebrate it with people." you say shrugging, continuing to clean off your shoes.
"We can spend it together, but you better not be weird about it." he says, as his face changes.
"I promise I won't weird you out about a holiday." you mock him.
You spent the rest of the day, dry remarks made causally here and there but neither of you seemed to care. He taught you a few things about being a titan, and you just listened intently, since you didn't have much to say yourself.
Though, it wasn't a traditional Valentine's day, it was still quite fun.
