(Your PoV)

I eventually fell asleep and drifted into a strange dream.

(Y/N).......(Y/N)

I could hear an unfamiliar voice calling me. I turned around but there was no one there. I was just surrounded by a glowing white. I squinted and saw a tall figure coming towards me.

"Who are you?" I asked. As he came closer, I saw the man had dark hair, dark eyes and freckles on his face. For some reason, my body automatically bowed and strange words that I was unable to control came out of my mouth, "All hail Freckled Jesus."

"My name is Marco Bott," He said and rested a hand on my shoulder, "say 'hi' to Jean for me." Marco began to fade away slowly and I was then surrounded by darkness.

I woke up breathing heavily, sweat dripping down my face. It was still dark outside. What the hell just happened? I heard a knock on my bedroom door.

"Come in." I called out. The door opened and Jean walked in. He wore a white shirt that was buttoned up to the third button, black pants and brown boots.

"Hey (Y/N), sorry for barging in this early but- are you okay?" He asked noticing my heavy breathing and sweaty face.

"I-I'm fine.." I said, then I remembered what that man had said in my dream. "I just had a strange dream."

Jean sat down on the bed next to me, "Tell me about it, your dream."

He listened to the whole thing. I looked up and saw a stunned look on Jean's face.

"M-Marco?" He stuttered.

"Yes, he told me to say 'hi' to you." I replied, a bit confused but Jean's reaction. Jean looked down at the floor, his hair draping over his eyes. I saw a single tear roll down his cheek. "Jean, what's wro-" before I could finished my sentence, Jean pulled me into a warm embrace. He hugged me tightly and I could hear his quiet sobbing in my ear.

He pulled away. "I'm sorry, I wish you didn't have to see me like this." He said, wiping the tears from his eyes. "Marco was my best friend, but he's gone now." Jean stood up from the bed and walked towards the door. Half of me wanted to stop him from leaving, but I let him go.

(=^x^=) breakfast time (=^x^=)

I sat at the table poking at my food.

"Sasha I'm not really-"

"Hungry? Here, I'll eat that for you." She smiled and took my food. I looked around and spotted Jean, he was having another argument with Eren. Eren and Jean both stood up and marched towards each other. They grabbed each other's collars and began yelling.

"If you rip my uniform I'll kill you!" Eren shouted in Jean's face. I saw Mikasa walk up to the two and separate them.

"Why do they hate each other so much?" I asked Sasha.

She turned to me chewing loudly, "I'm not sure, I think Jean's jealous of Eren because of the attention he gets from Mikasa or something." She shrugged.

"Oh." I answered.

I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around and saw Armin.

"Can we talk for a moment?" He asked politely. I nodded, stood up and walked outside with Armin.

"What's up?" I asked.

"That fight just now, between Jean and Eren, was about you." He said.

"Me?" I asked confused.

"Yes, apparently Eren saw Jean go into your room this morning and was questioning him about it." Armin told me.

"Oh, Jean did come into my room this morning." I said, remembering Jean's face covered in tears. Armin looked at me suspiciously.

"Why?" He asked.

"I don't know, we talked for a little bit, but that's all." I said and Armin seemed satisfied with my answer. Talking to smart people can be pressuring.

I walked back inside and bumped into someone's chest. I looked up and saw Eren with a suprised look on his face. Mikasa stood next to him, glaring at me as if she was about to murder me.

"Sorry." I said and took a step back. Eren went to take a step forward but Mikasa grabbed his arm.

"Eren, we should go now." She said and began to drag him away.

"Everyone find a partner to spar with!"

I looked around and everyone immediately partnered up with their best friends.

"Tch, oi loner! I guess I'll have to be your partner." I heard from behind me, I turned around and saw Levi with one hand on his hip, staring dramatically into the distance.

"Uh okay, Captain." I said and got into a fighting stance.

"Tch, as if you can beat me brat." He scoffed and kneed me in the stomach. The sudden blow caused me to fall onto the ground. "One hit and you're already down? Tch, pathetic." Levi was about to walk off when I grabbed him by the ankle and pulled him down. He face planted and I stood up and sat on him.

"I'm not finished." I whispered in his ear. Levi smirked and pushed me off him. He stood up and brushed some dirt off his uniform. I jumped at him with a clenched fist and tried to punch him in the face, but he grabbed my hand before it could reach his nose. Levi twisted my arm around and pulled me towards him. He shoved me down into the ground and I grunted in pain.

"I think we're done here." He whispered in my ear while sitting on my back.

"Okay, okay you win. Get off." I sighed in annoyance. Levi stood up and held his hand out to me. I took it and he pulled me up. I felt his hand on my cheek.

"You have dirt on your face." He said, brushing it off.

"Thanks." I said and we stood there for a little while staring at each other.

"Another round?" He asked. I nodded and got into fighting stance.
