Every new cadet was told to line up in front of Headquarters. We were unsure what was going to be ordered. We all saluted as Levi neared.

"Alright, your job for today is cleaning Headquarters. Since the last expedition this place has been collecting dirt, dust, and filth. I expect you all to clean every centimeter." Levi began to assign sections of Headquarters. You were assigned the upper rooms with Armin and Jean.

"Well? What are you waiting for brats! Get to work!" Everyone ran towards the boxes of cleaning supplies. It wasn't a race but in all of our heads we knew it was.

"Ugh! We have to carry these heavy supplies up the stairs?!" You complained. You didn't realize Armin and Jean were behind you.

"Oh so you can join the Survey Corps, but can't carry a box upstairs." Teased Jean. Like a child you stuck your tongue and walked off dragging the box behind you.

Finally you arrived at the foot of stairs.

"Hey (y/n)! Do you need help?" You turned to see Bertholdt.

"Oh, hello Bertholdt! No thank you." Without any warning Bertholdt grabbed the box and ran up the stairs.

"Bertholdt! Stop! You're going to hurt yourself." You followed close behind him. Bertholdt safely reached the top of the stairs. Unlike you, who tripped multiple times and nearly fell.
"Geez! How did you not fall especially with cargo!" You exclaimed. He smiled and shrugged.

You smiled back and took the box out of his hands.

"Thanks for the help now go help your group. You know how competitive we get." Bertholdt nodded and left you alone with the box.

"Seriously how did he run up here so carefully is he a ballerina?" You laughed imagining Bertholdt in a tiny tutu.

"I saw Bertholdt going down the stairs. He was assigned downstairs." Armin and Jean looked at you waiting for you to explain.

"He just helped me carry the box up." Jean looked at you, skeptical.

"Really? Then why was he blushing."

"Probably from running up here."

"Whatever helps you sleep at night."

We decided to work in our own sections. Unfortunately for you, you were left with the dirtiest section.

Jean claiming it was fair since you were the fastest at cleaning. You reluctantly agreed after arguing.

~Hour later~

You wiped your forehead. Finally you had finished. It wouldn't have taken so long but you had to clean perfectly or else Levi wouldn't approve. You looked to Jean and Armin and saw they were already done.

"Great now we can go tell Levi we're finished." Jean and Armin packed the supplies up and lifted the box up together. They slowly approached the stairs and began to walk down. You lagged behind.

You smiled thinking about the blushing giant, Bertholdt.

Ayyyyyye! I updated :D
