"Today is the day that each of you rookies will choose the path you wish to take." Erwin announced. "I am in charge of the scout regiment, so those of you willing to part take in expeditions outside of the walls, slay titans, and devote yourselves to humanity please stay behind. The rest of you are dismissed."

I watched as several people around me began to leave, a lot of them mumbling things about getting eaten or being killed for no reason.

Very few people remained, but I felt somewhat proud to be one of them. I looked around to see a lot of my friends were joining the scout regiment too. Jean, Eren, Sasha, Reiner, Bertie, Connie, Armin, etc. I didn't really consider Mikasa one of my friends, but she was there too.

"I wonder which squad I'll be in." I thought.

"Tomorrow, your training will take place at the scout regiment training grounds. Be there by 6:00am." Erwin said, then we were all dismissed.

"So (Y/N), you're joining the scout regiment." Eren said, sitting next to with his mouth full.

"Eren, don't talk with your mouth full." Mikasa grumbled.

"Yes I am joining." I said a bit uncomfortably as Mikasa was glaring at Eren while I talked to him.

The door to the dining area opened, and a pretty girl stood there. "Could I please have Eren Jaeger and (Y/N) (L/N)?" She politely asked. Eren and I stood up and left with her.

"My name's Petra Ral, I'm part of Squad Levi and have come to inform you that both of you will be joining our squad." Petra smiled. "We have an expedition in one week so you two will need to attend elite training and classes." Eren and I nodded and were dismissed.

(=^x^=) next day (=^x^=)

I opened my eyelids and let my eyeballs adjust to the bright sunlight pouring into the room. Today was the day I'd be meeting the rest of Levi's squad, and going over the plan for my first journey outside the walls.

I got up and ready. Butterflies swirled around in my stomach as I thought about meeting new people.

"At least Eren will be there with me! We're in the same boat." I smiled to myself.

Someone knocked on my door..I gave myself a confident wink in the mirror and went to answer it. I opened the door and there stood Eren, looking quite obviously nervous.

"Good morning Eren!" I cheered.

"M-m-m-morningnsbcjkrkwjd IM SO NERVOUS (Y/N)!!!" Eren cried.

"You'll be aight." I smiled, walking out and down the corridor. Eren just stood there stunned at the little emotional support I had given him.

(*'︶'*)╯♡ meeting room (*'︶'*)╯♡

Eren and I arrived outside the door of the room we were told to meet at. I went to knock but Eren stopped me.

"What if they don't like me?" He asked.

I just smiled and proceeded to knock.

"I'm sure they'll—" I was cut off by the door squeaking open. Eren and I walked in. The room was dim, merely lit by a few candles. It smelt of dust and old people.

"Take a seat." I heard a familiar sexy- I mean deep voice say.

Eren and I sat down at the huge table in the centre of the room. We sat by ourselves facing the 5 people at the other end. Levi sat at the head of the table.

"Introduce yourselves." He scowled.

"Cadet (Y/N) (L/N). Pleased to make your acquaintance." I said confidently, although I could barely see the people I was talking to.

"I'm E-Eren J-J-Jaeger." Eren stated, barely audible.

One by one Levi's squad members introduced themselves.

"Petra Ral." Said the familiar girl we had met yesterday. She seemed nice, a bit too nice for my liking though.

"Eld Jinn." Another voice said.

"Gunther Schultz."

"Auruo Bozado." Said the last member.

"Wait..Oreo!?" I blurted our without thinking. It was silent for a moment...then everyone burst out into laughter with the exception of Levi and Auruo.

"IT'S AURUO!!" He shouted.

Eren and I headed back to HQ for dinner. Probably not the best start to meeting Levi's squad but it wasn't too bad.

At dinner, everybody talked about their squads. Eren told the group about my misunderstanding of Auruo's name and they loved it. I found myself blushing from embarrassment. I thought about how he would probably hate me for the rest of my life for mistakening him for a biscuit when I was snapped out of my daze by a strong hand on my shoulder.

"Don't worry (Y/N)! I think you're hilarious!" Jean smiled.

"Thanks buddy." I managed, still feeling a little stupid. Jean seemed to frown at the word 'buddy' and Eren began to laugh. This (of course) sparked an argument which turned into a fist fight.

"You've been friend zoned!! Accept it!!!" Eren yelled.

"Oh yeah? I bet you haven't even made it past the acquaintance stage!" Jean fired back. I sat there completely oblivious to what was going on as the two boys fired shots at each other. That was, until someone stormed into the room and interrupted everything.

"Shut the hell up." Levi scowled. At the mere sight of the Corporal, Eren and Jean froze.

"(Y/N). You are to come to my office immediately." Levi continued. I glanced at Eren and Jean before following Levi to his office.

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) in Levi's office ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Levi locked the door behind us. I immediately felt nervous.

'I'm in a locked room with Captain Levi..."
