"Maxing out his credit card too, I see."He mutters.

Ah, there it is. You say mentally. It was a bit naive to think that I could go a day without a comment like that.

Before you could properly ignore his comment, Mikasa snatched the card out of his hands, shocking the clerk. She handed him her card while staring him down.

The clerk shakily took the card and did what he needed to do. Mikasa watches his every move while folding her arms. Out of intimidation, he avoids her gaze. He tries to look up but catches Annie's stare instead.

Unlucky guy.

You feel a hand placed on your shoulder. When you glance to the side, you see Sasha smiling at you.

It's been a while since someone comforted you like that.

"T-Thank you come again." He mumbles. He hands Mikasa her card, and Annie takes the bags.
"We won't." Annie states.

As soon as you walked out of the shop, Annie hands you your dress. "You shouldn't worry about people like him Y/n," Sasha says breaking the silence. 

"I don't." You reply. "It happens all the time."

You turn to see Annie and Sasha, giving you concerned looks. "It's fine I swear, and you guys stood up for me, which you didn't have to do."

"What are friends for?" Sasha said.

Friends.

"We aren't actually friends."

Instead of making you sad, the word made you smile.

"Thank you."  You reply. For being real friends.

A small noise coming from Sasha snapped you out of thought. You face the brunette and she smiles cheekily. Annie frowns at her.

Mikasa sighs, "Let's go find somewhere to eat, I'm kind of hungry as well."

As Mikasa and Annie discuss where to go, Sasha's attention was elsewhere. You were also distracted by small commotions in the distance.

"Hey does anyone hear-"

"Look it's her!" A cameraman shouted.

Shit.

The girls turn their attention to the infinite cameras now heading toward them.

"Y/n what're you wearing today?"
"Y/n, who are your friends?"

"That one is gorgeous."
"Miss can I get a picture."

"Y/n where did you shop today?"

"Is that Mikasa Ackerman?"
"Y/n, how do know Mikasa?"

"Y/n will you and Levi be attending Kenny Ackerman's extravaganza tomorrow?"

Extravaganza? Is that what he's calling his retirement party.

Mikasa sighs and takes your hand dragging you away from the paparazzi.

"Jeez, you're like a deer in headlights," Mikasa stated. She then smiled at you. "You're like a paparazzi magnet, I forgot how popular you are."

You chuckle lightly." Yeah, I hate it, and it doesn't help that they think I'm Levi's fiancé."

"Speaking of Shorty, how are things?" She asked.
"Have you done it yet?"

You felt a small blush creep on your face. You swivel your head in the opposite direction of Mikasa. "What!! N-no."

"Are you sure?" She quizzed.

"Am I sure?" You repeated. "I think I would know."

You look around for your friends but they're nowhere to be found. "Hey, where are Annie and Sasha."

"Sasha dragged Annie along with her, in her search to find somewhere to eat." She explained. Mikasa eyes you."Don't change the subject, and don't think I forgot about buying you new clothes."

You frowned. "I don't know where I stand with Levi."

"Where do you want to stand with him?" She asks.

"I don't know." You responded. It was the best answer you felt you could give.

"Hm, okay, I'll ask an easier question." She said. "Do you like Levi?"

"I...don't know."You responded meekly. Mikasa eyes you again. "Are you sure?" She asks. This time you eye her.

You didn't know how you felt with Levi because it varies from time to time. He only recently started to open up to you.

"Y/n?"

At any given time his mood towards you could change and you both would start fighting.

"Am I asking hard questions or are you thinking of more excuses?" Mikasa questioned. You sigh in response.

"Hm, okay, what do you like about Levi?" She asks. "If there's anything."

"His hair is nice, uh, his eyes, his eyes actually are his best feature. They're this beautiful type of blue or a slick steel gray that you could easily be terrified of or get lost in because of how enchanting-"

You stopped, realizing you had just gone off on a rant about Levi's eyes. You turned to Mikasa who had a grin on her face. You had a pinkish tint on yours.

"You're in love," Mikasa concluded. "With my cousin."

She waits for you to respond but you can't defend yourself.

Am I? You ask yourself.

"You have horrible taste in men, did I tell you that," Mikasa tells you. "You know he's 5'3."

"I don't care about his height." You say.

Mikasa giggles. "Oh yeah that's right, you only care about his, enchanting steel grey eyes-"

"Mikasa!"You huff. You turn in the opposite direction of the raven-haired female. She laughs.

—————————————————————————

It was currently 9:00 pm and you were carrying 6 shopping bags heading towards the front door of Levi's house.

Mikasa decided to do some extra shopping for you without you knowing.

After you had your small epiphany, you and Mikasa found Annie and Sasha at a nearby restaurant. Annie was watching Sasha stuff- I mean to finish a potato, by itself.

You struggled to get inside while carrying the bags, which seemed to be getting heavier every minute. Though you are holding up better than you imagined.

Damn, how much did she buy? You mentally sigh. More importantly, how am I supposed to pay her back.

As soon as you walk into the house you walk straight to your room. You don't know how it would look if Levi saw you with all these bags.

You don't know how it would affect the way he thinks about you, since you don't know how he feels about you, and you weren't planning to ask.

Such a pain.
