Scarlett's POV

I wake up, sitting up on my bed. I realize I am still wearing my uniform from yesterday, "God, I must have knocked out during paperwork." I yawn, standing up out of bed, stretching my body. I look to my window, the sun is about to rise 'Great... I overslept.' I undress out of my uniform, I hurry to grab a clean set.

'I don't have much time. I need to finish looking at the last file, I will have Adrian grab the new recruits and bring them right away to my office.' I pull up my pants and fix on my straps. I grab my long-sleeved white buttoned-up shirt and start buttoning the first four buttons on the bottom. When I suddenly hear my door creeks to reveal Levi.

"Luna, you passed out on me. I am here to drop off your paperwork you left in my off-"

We make eye contact as my chest is exposed. I feel myself turning bright red, trying to quickly finish buttoning the remaining buttons on my shirt.

"I should have knocked." Levi quickly blurts outs, I see the door shut.

Levi's POV

"Luna, you passed out on me. I am here to drop off your paperwork you left in my off-"

I made eye contact with Scar, I realized her shirt was half-open, her chest exposed. I feel myself turning bright red, "I should have knocked." I quickly blurted out as I shut the door.

I take a deep breath to try to cool myself down. "Good morning, Captain Levi." I turn around to see Adrian saluting me. "Oh no, did Ma'am make you angry again?"

"W-What?"

"You are bright red in anger." Adrian points out. I feel myself getting even redder at his comment. I plop Scar's paperwork in Adrian's hands and quickly go into my office and pick up a broom to clean to clear my mind at the sight I saw.

'She- No. Clean. Clean. Clean. Clean!'

Scarlett's POV

'Now we're even I guess... We need to learn how to knock. Thank God he didn't see my back.' I heard a knock at my door, Adrian's voice echoed right after. "Um. Ma'am, I am here to report and Captain Levi handed me your paperwork."

"Come in."

Adrian walks in as I put on my jacket, "Please set it down on my desk."

Adrian puts my neat stack of paperwork on my desk, "Ma'am, I think you got Captain Levi mad again."

"W-What?!"

"He was standing outside your door, red-faced, he seemed really mad."

I turn red remembering the incident that happened not even 2 minutes ago, 'If only you knew why he was red...'

I clear my throat, "Everything is okay. Don't worry about it." I say as I pull my long black hair into a high ponytail. I sit down on my desk, "The recruits soon will be up any minute now." I open the files, on a piece of paper I write down all the names of the new recruits in my squad.

I hand Adrian the piece of paper, "Please, Adrian go gather up these new recruits. I want them to line up outside my office. Since I will be talking to them, I want you to be in charge of practice training the rest of the squad. I want a full report of their evaluations. Make sure everyone eats, and if they're good let them have the rest of the day off."

"You sure Ma'am? Me in charge like this? Doing squad leader evaluations?"

I look up to meet Adrian's brown eyes, "Adrain. You have been my right-hand man for 5 years now. I trust you to take charge of the training exercises, and report to me their proper evaluations based on today."
