The sun hung in the bright blue sky above me as the heat beats down on us in a warm and soothing way just as spring would normally do. The air was sweet with flowers and buzzing with life of smaller creatures as our horses ran across the field on our first expedition outside the walls after 6 years. (h/n) huffed out, leading the pack of the scouts behind me and Levi which included Hanji, Armin, Eren, Mikasa, Jean, Connie, Sasha and a few extras meaning Floche included. 

I look behind me to see Eren looking morose and distant, his hair on the longer side. "Everything is going as it should..." I mumble out, pushing forward as Hanji commanded us. A flock of birds flew above us, cooing softly to each other and I see Armin look up with an amazed look in his eyes. 

A red smoke blast goes off in the sky and everyone looks at each other in confusion. "A titan?" Jean asks.

"So I guess one actually showed up. Let's go take a look." Connie answers and they rush forward to see if it was safe. Everyone slows down, seeing a small titan laying dead on the ground. "Doesn't look like it can move much..."

"Even with those limbs... It still tried to drag itself to the wall bit by bit." Sasha mutters out and I watch Eren get close to it while and going off about how it was a fellow patreon. Everyone saddles up again and we all ride off, ignoring Floche's yells of killing the titan. We continue riding, slowly seeing patches of sand show up in the grass and that's when I bring up my scarf to cover my face.

"Ho much farther until we reach the wall?" Levi asks as he looks over at me.

"We will reach there around midday." I respond back and he nods, staring at me for a little while before looking up ahead. Levi didn't want to tell anyone about us, not that I minded. I knew he wasn't good with the social interaction that comes with explaining to people that you are seeing someone and I figured that he was still trying to figure out his feelings which I was ok with. I'm willing to wait and be there for him as much as I can. I didn't want to push him to anything and really, I was more than happy to keep it under wraps. I didn't want to overwhelm Levi.
