Eren knocked on Annie's door. Three quick wraps and two hard ones at the end. "Annie! It's Eren. Open up."

Eren heard Annie's light footsteps coming to the door to open it. She opened the door and Eren froze. She was still wearing his t-shirt. Just his shirt and black panties. Annie noticed Eren checking her out and turned beet red. "Perv" she mocked at Eren. "Well are you gonna just stand there or are you coming in?"

She turned around and Eren noticed for the first time how great of an ass she had. Damn is all Eren could think as he followed her in.

"I brought some food" Eren said as he followed her into the sitting room. He presented a few pastries and a loaf of bread.

"Thanks." Annie said in a monotone voice making it hard for Eren to know if she was being sarcastic or not. "Stay here, I'm going to go get dressed and if you peek, I'll kill you."

"Yes ma'am!" Eren said with a salute. He had seen how strong she was, making up for her weakness and height with refined stature and form.

As Eren was sitting alone, he remembered the kiss that she gave him last night. How light and soft her lips were. The only bad part of it was that it was just a friendly thank you and not romantic at all. What a shame Eren thought to himself.

Annie returned and they sat down to eat. "I was thinking that we could go to get you some clothes today since all you have is that uniform and that makes you stand out. It would be strange to have an MP hanging out on the outskirts or Wall Rose in an isolated town."

"Are you asking me on a date, Jeager?" Annie asked teasingly as she saw a blush appear on Eren's face.

Eren was not taking this lying down. "Yes I am, in fact, let me rephrase that; Annie, do you want to go on a date with me?"

Annie was surprised. She could not believe that Eren had fought back. A blush crept on to her face this time. "Well I accept." She said in a shaky voice.

They finished eating breakfast and set out for the town square.  It was nothing compared to Trost let alone Stohess that Annie was used to.

"Where do you want to go first?" Eren asked Annie.  He saw her eyeing a dress in a shop window.  I guess I never saw Annie as the type to wear dresses.  I suppose that we were always in our military uniforms.

"Let's go there." Eren suggested.  "We can search for clothes there."

"Ok." Annie said smiling a little knowing that Eren saw her looking.

They entered the store and Annie walked right up to the dress she had been eyeing. Her face went pale.

"How much is it?" Eren asked, determined to get it for her.

"Hehe..." Annie laughed nervously. "Ummm it's $140.  Let's look at something else."

"Why?" Eren asked.  "Do you like it?"

"Yes but not for that much."  Annie replied.

"Don't worry about it.  It's on me.  I don't have much to spend my paychecks on and have pretty much all of it since joining."  Eren said as he pulled out an envelope full of money.  He pulled out $350 and handed it to Annie. "Don't you dare let me see a penny of that left over. Get whatever you want from this place."

Eren had only seen Annie smile once before, and that was caused by him.  Now he had seen her smile twice. He remembered that as one of his favorite memories from cadets.
