At their engagement party, Levi mostly just looks bored sitting at his table. Eren sits frigid and nervous at his side. They're supposed to be getting married but he has a feeling Levi doesn't like him very much.

"Eren?" Levi asks.

"Yes?" Eren replies immediately, jumping at the chance to do something for the other man.

Levi pauses at Eren's quick and enthusiastic response. He looks down at the table so the boy's eyes aren't so focused on him. "I just thought I should tell you," he says. "I'm not a very talkative person and I'm not all that enthusiastic like you, so if it seems like I'm angry at you, I'm probably not."

Eren stares at Levi with his mouth slightly open. He smiles. "Thank you for telling me that."

Levi shrugs. "Crowds just make me a little uncomfortable," he mutters.

Eren looks around at the dozens (probably hundreds, if he's being honest) of people dancing in the ballroom. "Well," he says. "Do you wanna go to the garden? There shouldn't be anyone out there right now."

"It seems improper to leave our own party," Levi replies.

Eren shrugs. "Just for a few minutes, to breathe a little."

Levi looks at him again and Eren tries smiling at him. Levi says, "That sounds-"

But he's interrupted by the king, "Ladies and gentlemen of the court, I am incredibly pleased to announce the betrothal of my son, Eren, to the prince of our neighboring kingdom, Levi!"

There was much cheering and the king kept talking, not that Eren was listening by now, he was more interested in watching Levi now; finally noticing the slightly uncomfortable look in his eyes at all the noise the people were creating.

"-a dance!"

"What?" Eren asked as Levi stood.

Levi jerked his head to gesture for Eren to stand as well, so he did and Levi took his hand, leading him out into the enormous circle the people made.

Levi got himself and Eren into dancing position quickly, just before the music starts. "What's going on?" Eren asks quietly leading them around the floor.

"Your father wants us to lead a dance." Levi whispers.

Eren frowns. "Why? I don't like dancing with people."

"Evidently, he don't give a shit."

Eren laughs loudly and he can practically feel the ugly stare from his aunt, who gave him his dance lessons when he was little.

She always said it was inappropriate to make noise above quiet talk while dancing. Eren is happy to see Levi smiling at him.

At least now he knows his fiancée doesn't hate him.

A/N: Another authors note!?

Anyways... I was thinking of doing a book where a user asks me a question about me and I answer their question truthfully.

So should I do it?

Yes...

Or

No...
