Previously..

"No. What do you mean, Petra! This is gonna be amazing for both our reputations! If we spread this we'll be so cool." Oluo spoke. "This is wrong. Please give it back, Oluo. Stop it!" She yelled.

"It's too late, now. Petra. Once I spread a word, it's over for her." He laughed and walked away, leaving Petra in complete despair.

───

"I'm sorry.. Y/N.. I couldn't do anything." She cried as a sudden spark through her head appeared.  "I need to tell everyone, for her sake." Petra whispered, running to Erwin's room. A couple knocks and her voice was answered.

"Cite your name and business," said Erwin. 

"Petra Ral, it's about Y/N's personal privacy. Please, sir." She pleaded. 

"Come in. What about it?" He asked. 

"Y/N, I'm worried. Oluo found a letter from one of her former lovers in her room and is planning to spill everything! I need your help, desperately. The guy came last spring party and he is an immense touchy topic kind of dude. The whole HQ knowing about it will doom her, please, commander." She pleaded once again, tears welling in her eyes. 'I care for you, Y/N. This is the least I could do for you.'

"Thank you for informing me, Cadet Ral. I will see what I can do. You are dismissed." He said, lowering his head towards his paperwork once more as the ginger left and sighed the minute the door behind her closed.

"I need to tell Y/N." She mumbled, running towards the further end of the building, where Hange's little laboratory was. There the ginger was. "Y/N! Please. This is important, Oluo found your letter and is planning to tell everyone about it. Hurry." said she in between pants. My eyes widened, "What?!" Hange yelled, dragging me by the hand and running to the mess hall.

It was too late.

"I'm serious! Hahaha! See, Jean! They really did know each other!" Oluo laughed, motioning the letter, rubbing against his face. A tear silently slid down my face, everyone looks like they know. They're not supposed to. I tried not to pay any mind to Franz. 

Franz was terrible, and it's still a toxic, sensitive topic for me. It's that bad. 

"OLUO!" I screamed. 

"Well, well. Y/N. Look at these faces I've impressed, welcome to your downfall." He smirked as my mouth was agape. This cannot be happening, everyday just always has something to ruin my day, eh?

"When my count reaches three I'm vomiting on your.. pretty styled hair. Answer one question, why?" I said, softly. "Theres no fun in here." He chuckled as I raised an eyebrow. "One." I began my slowly empowering glare. 

"Two." I continued, he still didn't let go. "Oh my, now. It's quite sad how you want to be puked on."

"I know you wouldn't."

"Three." I pretend coughed as his eyes grew wider, giving me the letter and running off. Once my act was over, I smirked and walked away. "And I thought I needed to take care of this matter, looks like I don't need to, after all." Hange shrugged.

"Hange, I'm old enough to take care of myself. You should know that by now." I giggled, patting her on the head. "Oh my god! Thank you for patting me head, Y/N! I love you more than I love pats!" She exclaimed, wrapping her arm around me tightly.

"Alright, alright. I know-" I was cut off by Armin running towards me. "Y/N! Is this letter true?" He asked as I nodded my head slightly. "Yes, it is." I added.

"Half of the people who eats at the mess hall knows what you've gone through. All the.. se- Nevermind." He stopped as I tilted my head in curiosity. 

"Armin? Do you mean.. Sexual harassment or something?" I chuckled. "There isn't any of th-" I was once again cut off.

"...I don't think you read the last bit. There were two sections so neatly folded you could barely tell the difference." Armin sighed as I opened the letter once more.

Oh? You've found this part, eh? Looks like the jokes been founded! Oh, Y/N, Y/N. I'm sure your clumsy little hands might put this letter into someone else's hands.. Tell everyone how I touched you, kissed you, so mercilessly pleased you till' you fainted. How I made you mine. 

"..No. I-I.. I can't read forward. All of the information next up are secrets.. Most especially the job I had in the past.." I said rather quietly, trembling to cry.

"Y/N. Read the last paragraph." Hange pointed.

They'll know everything, my dear angel. If I can predict correctly, Oluo picked it up. Told everyone for the excuse of boredom and was caught by the sassiness of the most 'popular stripper' in town. 

No.. no way. No. How?

I talked to him at the party, telling him all about you and our relationship. Our plan was to make this letter and expose everything about you! You left me, Y/N consequences are consequences. 

"What in the fuck." I whispered to myself as a tear slipped from my e/c orbs. "I'm sorry, Y/N." He hugged me as I stood there frozen, helpless.

And once again.. Empty.
