A/N: Hey y'all. I just want to say... don't kill me for what's about to come. I just though my story could use a little sexual tension between the characters.......... just read the chapter. 

(TIME SKIP (Because I'm lazy) BROUGHT TO YOU BY LEVI'S SHEER AWESOMENESS: A week later)

The ball was NOT merely a day away. It wasn't near... it was here. By now, thanks to Levi Heichou's epic, mad, cleaning commands, the castle's exterior and interior shined like a brand new coin. The tables had all been set up, as well as the rest of the decorations. He had been setting up the a part of the ballroom into a makeshift (yet fancy) stage for the orchestra ensemble, and every room shined like a brand-new coin fresh out of one's pocket. It didn't hurt that he had forced practically the entire Survey Corps to clean the castle inside and out everyday before the ball, but now the day was almost here, and all they needed to do was get themselves ready. Big problem, considering this was a big, fancy, royal-people worthy (even though the poorest man was invited) party... right? NOT!! As a thanks for preparing the castle, Queen Historia had gifted the entire Survey Corps complete help a.k.a. Free tuxedo/dress fittings from her tailors, free spas and makeovers, etc. And these people were Historia's best, so the Survey Corps would definitely be covered. They had all decided that it should be best to do it all tomorrow, since that was the day of the ball, and that would mean the Survey Corps would all look a fresh as daisies. However, there was one thing that Historia could not help with... and that was their dates. Though some people needed to find out who to take PRONTO, Levi had it covered. He knew who he wantedAll the Survey Corps needed to do was get a date and get fancy... unless if they didn't want a date. That means they just had to get fancy. But Levi knew who he wanted to ask. He looked across the ballroom at Petra, who was double-checking that everything was done right. Her orange hair seemed to fly in the wind (it should be in mind that a few windows were open for some sunlight), and her amber eyes glowed in the light. God, each and every day, she grew to become more angelic.

"Levi Heichou?" Eren said, immediately bringing the love-struck personified stone out of his daydream.

"What is it, Yeager!"

"Ummm.... Auruo had a question," Eren said before doing... meh, Levi didn't care.

Levi turned his head to find his personal mimicker staring at him with confusion in his eyes. It had been a week since Auruo made a fool of himself by literally mimicking Levi with his back turned. To be fair, the tongue-biting copycat wasn't aware of the fact that Levi was right behind him, but it was still stupid.

Meh. He's apologized several times, Levi said as he looked Auruo in the eye.

"Ummm... Heichou, I-I- I ne-,"

"What is it, Bozad?"

"H-Heichou, I-I,"

"Speak up!"

"I NEED SOME ADVICE!!"

Levi raised an eyebrow before going back to his usual face-expression.

What does he need advice for?

"What is it,"

"You-you see," Auruo took a deep breath in order to help his stuttering disappear, "I want to ask this girl to the dance, but I don't know how I should do it."

Levi raised his eyebrow once again, but this time, he didn't even bother to put it back down. It was strange Auruo came to him for dating advice. He himself didn't even know how to confess his feelings to Petra. But then again, there must have been something about Levi Heichou that gave off the idea that he knew stuff like this, so he decided to give him an answer anyway.
