The Hell of Titans.... What Did I Do To Deserve this? [SnK/AoT Fanfic]

Side Story No. 2 (Pt. 1)

(A/N: Whew! I'm back guys! I maaaaaay or maaaay not have forgot about this fanfic again. So as a apology, I wrote a suuuuper long chapter. I'll write down below this A/N how many words there were. Also, don't question why I did a birthday special thing for Basil, I just did okay >:(. I know I'm late. I'm running out of ideas for side stories. But anyways, there will be a part 2 as said in the title. I don't know when it will come, but it'll come soon I hope. Also, I'm absolutely sure Levi is OOC. It's not my fault, I'm not good at writing cold characters lol. Tbh Basil's lover was going to be Eren or someone else besides Levi (Because I get jealous of my own character being with Levi XD What have I become, getting jealous over fictional characters.) but you guys wanted this. Ya'll know I'm the type of person who would bend over backwards just to make anyone happy XD (Besides, I don't care about Levi being with Basil that much. Gaara is the only one for me~! (Plus, why am I making it seem like all these characters are nonfiction!? Also, parentheses inside of parentheses!)). Anyway, I hope you liked this chapter! Bye~!)

"GUYS!!! GUESS WHAT DAY IT IS!!!!" Basil squealed, bounding over to the table where her friends were in the mess hall of the Survey Corps. "Uh... Tuesday?" Sasha asked, clearly confused. "YEAH!! AND!?" Basil yelled expectantly, her visible eye sparkling. "National Fire Day." Mikasa said, and Basil sweat dropped. "What...? No..... What does that even mean?" Basil asked Mikasa, but Mikasa merely shrugged and went back to eating. "Oh, I remember! National Truffle day!!! This is going to be fun!!!" Connie said, a wide grin on his face. Wait, what the hell? Aren't Truffles chocolate? Chocolate shouldn't exist here- (Shhhhh.... it's okay. I, Balice66, will allow chocolate to exist for this chapter.) Basil slumped, depressed marks on her head. "It's also our day off." Eren piped in, clearly happy he doesn't have to run laps and deal with Levi's crud behavior. Basil slumped even further, and gloom shrooms started growing on her. "It's fine..... I didn't expect you to remember..... I'll just...... take my leave......." Basil started for the door in a slow, sorrowful manner that made everyone watch her until she left. Everyone looked at each other in confusion. "What was that about?" Eren asked himself, and Connie sat back. "How should I know? Maybe Jean knows." Speaking of the devil, Jean appears with Armin with their breakfast. "Hey Jean! Do you know what day it is today?" Connie asked Jean as he went over and sat down next to Mikasa. "It's a Tuesday, May 2nd. Why do you want to know?" Jean asked, suspicious. "Well, Basil came running in here yelling about what day it is. She knew it was a May 2nd of Tuesday, but there isn't anything going on today." Eren answered, crossing his arms as he looked down at his food in concentration. "You guys don't remember?" Everyone turned their head to Armin. "It's May 2nd. Basil's birthday. She told all of us 2 days ago." On Que, everyone's mouth dropped. "What the hell Jean!! You're her brother!! You should know this kind of stuff and tell us!!" Eren yelled, pointing at Jean angrily. "What!? How should I have known!? She doesn't ever tell me this kind of stuff!!!!" Jean yelled, not taking this accusation. "Stop it." Mikasa said, stepping in. "Well, what should we do!? We don't have any presents!" Sasha yelled, panicking. "Well actually... I have a present because I remembered." Armin said, pulling out a small box. "EH!? Then it's only us then!?" Eren yelled, and Jean buried his head in his hands. "I'm a horrible brother... She deserves better..." Jean mumbled in regret, wincing. "Well, what should we do?" Mikasa asked, and Armin scrunched his eyebrows in thought. "Well... we have the day off. Why don't we ask Commander Erwin if we could book the Mess Hall during the night for Basil's birthday? After dinner?" Armin suggested, and Sasha shot up. "I'll go ask!!!" And then, Sasha took off running to the Commander's office. "Wait, Sasha!" Connie yelled, but she was already out the door. "She'll come back. But, how are we going to set up the mess hall without Basil noticing?" Mikasa asked, and right when she did, two trainees walked past them. "Hey, we're allowed to go into town, right?" "Yeah, we're allowed to go into town! This is going to be the one and only chance in a long time, so we better make most of it! Come on!" The trainees ran off, leaving the group that over heard staring. "Okay! How about someone takes Basil into town to distract her, while we decorate the Mess Hall for her birthday?" Jean said, but Eren shook his head. "Yeah, but who's going to take her into town?" Eren asked, and everyone looked down in thought. "We need Sasha to bake a cake... Mikasa won't separate from Eren.... Eren and Armin would surely blow our cover..... Connie knows where to get the best things for the party and the best presents.... So I guess I go. I have a better chance, and I'm her brother." Jean said, and they all came to a conclusion. "Okay, we're counting on you Jean. Since Connie and you into the same town, try to avoid each other, okay?" Armin addressed, and the both of them nodded. Sasha walked back into the Mess Hall, shoulders slumped. "Erwin said the Mess Hall had already been booked out to other trainees...." Sasha said, a glum look on her face. "That's fine." They turned to Mikasa. "I know a place in the forest that would be good to hold the party. Basil once told me she would love to have a outdoor party with food and lots of people. Plus, she visits this place I have in mind frequently." Mikasa said, and Connie got pumped. "Alrrrrrrright!! Let's get started! We're counting on you Jean!" Connie said, and all of them split up to do their jobs.
