You rested your waster at your shoulder as you look around at the training ground in search of a certain person.

“I’ll be leaving for a while, join them and don’t do anything stupid. I’m not here to stop you.” You nodded in response to Levi without giving him a glance.

As he leaves, you look at the scouts having their training, and stop when you finally sees him.

You began to walk and approached that person. You pointed your waster at him, which caused everyone around to disperse.

He doesn’t know yet, since his back facing you. “Ethan, let’s spar.” He flinches and slowly looking at you. When he finally sees your face, he recoils and pointed his trembling fist on you.

“H-How did you get my name? You’re truly a creep, could you stop stalking me,” he stuttered while stating those words.

You chuckled as you put down the waster on the ground. “Come at me, let’s test your strength.” You take your stance while waiting for his attack.

He was full of hesitation and hands were trembling. Not so long, he advance forward screaming, as he blow a visible attack at you.

He was slow and very easy to read. You forcefully pull his arm very quick and place your hand on his neck as you push him so hard to the ground.

Loud gasps could be heard around you, while Ethan froze as he couldn’t react on how fast it happened. He looked at you with eyes very wide open.

“You won’t last long if you are this weak,” you murmured to him. What you’re worried is how weak he is, and how poorly he fights.

You’re now wondering if your father forced him to join the scouts, you suddenly realized,

is he even still alive?

You wanted to ask but it will only bring him confusion as he doesn’t know you.

“What are you doing?” You heard Mikasa’s enraged voice behind you. You raise your hand showing defeat.

“Didn’t Levi inform you that I am joining in your training as well?” you said as you took a stand.

“Are you okay that was a bad hit.” You heard someone as you look back and see them helping Ethan to get up. Just as you thought he was weak.

You smirk looking at her which only causes to frown even deeper. “Do you want to know how strong I could be?”

  She raises her brows before a curving a little smirk, without saying a thing she took her stunt before you.

“You might get hurt again, Mikasa,” You heard Armin said worryingly, approached. You then muttered, “Don’t worry I won’t use my full strength on her.”

Wasting no time she attacks, yet you’re only dodging all her attacks. She is fast and was losing her cool, mad for a reason.

She keeps advancing and you’re only defending, if this keeps on doing she will be exhausted.

“It’s not good if you’re mad as you fight, keep calm.” She recoils taking a step backward. You got it right; she's worn out when you look at her and was already gasping.

“Don’t tell me what to do.” She took a deep breath before going back attacking you, she is enraged and it does not help.

You have to stop her before she loses her control. You grab her collar, lifted her up throwing her to the ground; everyone got surprised by what you did.

“You’re good, but you need to control your temper. Let’s fight again when you’re already calm,” you stated and see her wincing while gritting her teeth.

You don’t understand why she hated you so much and you wonder, maybe because you hit her before but she already hates you before that happened.

You sigh and look around, saying, “So who’s next?” Everyone recoil and none of them attempted to fight you to which you only sighed in defeat.

They fear you too much, well who can blame them? You began to walk away, leaving them. Training with them is not a good idea.








The sun is finally settling when you wake up. You did overslept. You're yawning while taking a sit from lying on the couch.

Upon glancing around you were startled to see Levi on his desk, when you expected it less.

“You’re awake,” he commented. You didn’t respond but when you’re about to stand up your stomach was growling. You gulp dryly felt embarrass.

You look at Levi giving him an embarrass smile you said, “I skipped lunch so…um...so I'm starving. Hehe.”

Levi was about to say something but you rushed outside. As you walk in the hall way you covered your face with your hands as the embarrassment you felt was unbearable. “So stupid…”

You open the door of the kitchen and got halted to see Niccolo spoon-feeding Sasha. They were both startled and surprised as they both looked at you.

You approached them as they didn’t take any move, only staying still. You took bread on the table and turn your back to them

But when you’re just about to leave you turn around and reached for a spoon to taste the soup that was Niccolo feeding to Sasha.

“Mmh, it tastes delicious,” you commented before finally taking your leave. They were only watching you as you give them a malicious smile.

You smile contentedly as you shut the door close. “How sweet they--,” You almost leap in utter astonishment making the bread almost fell when you see Levi.

“Levi, y-you’re here,” you said trying to calm yourself from being startled. You instinctively stop him by blocking his way when he was about to reach the knob.

He furrowed his brows looking at you confused. “What are you doing?” he asked but you only look away while trying to come up with a reason. “Move aside, I’ll have my tea.”

“No! I mean…don’t disturb them.” He frowns deeper in so much confusion, he mutter, “Disturb who?”

Your lips parted and having a hard time on how to explain it to him. “I mean…um…skip your tea for today. It’s not good for your health if you’re taking regularly.” You said to him hoping he buys it.

He was only looking at you failed to comprehend what you were saying. “I’m not skipping my tea, I--,”

“Just for today, okay?” You immediately replied to him. You’re pushing him away as he looked at you thinking you were hiding something from him.

You felt nervous at this point but luckily he sighed and said, “I’ll have it tomorrow instead.” You smiled feeling so relieved leaning your back against the door.

“I--,” You were about say something but were cut off when someone behind the door open it causing you to lose your balance. But his arm wrapped around your waist catching you from falling.

You discreetly gasp and balance yourself by holding him on his shoulder. Staring straight to his eyes it causes your heart to beat very fast.

He help you stand in your ground and you were still left startled. “Are you okay?” he asked in whisper and you absentmindedly nodded in response to him.

You couldn't speak, it was like your tongue was tangled. It happens too quickly. “I’m sorry Y/N, I didn’t know you were there,” Sasha apologized.

You lightly pushed Levi away and freed yourself from his clutches when you finally able to collect yourself.

“I…I forgot something,” you reasoned and began to walk away quickly, and you continued without turning back to look at them as you felt the heat in your face. “Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

What the heck is wrong with me?
