The camera shows the birds flying high in the golden sky. Citizens staring off to the distance while a street dog barks. The camera slowly reveals an enormous hand crushing the top of the high wall. The citizens with wide eyes stare at the creature towering over the wall.
"And just like that, everything changed." The owner of the hand's shadows the buildings and land.
"At that terrible moment. In our hearts, we knew. Home was a pen, humanity... cattle."
The voice-over cues perfectly and the music sets in while showing the huge titan staring down at the city below.I stare intensely at my trailer that I've been working on since for basically my whole life. I've scrapped and thrown away many of my childhood ideas. But this one, I couldn't help but hold onto. I was a famous director for many famous action fantasy's and was known for taking huge risk and hiring the best of the best actors. I was strict and wanted everything to be perfect, so I couldn't help but criticize everything I make. I was currently working on a new series from my childhood idea, Attack on Titan.
"Chill Y/n!"
"I can't Hanji! I finally can make my dream come true! It has to be perfect or else I would commit-"
"Woah, chill out!" I feel a pair of hands on my shoulders that starts to shake me violently,
"I cannnttt" I whine and close my eyes, feeling the built up stress inside of me.
"Well you have to! Today we start to shoot our first scene. Besides the trailer is out and everyone is so stoked!" I sigh and nod, relaxing she is right and there isn't anything I could do about it, even if I overlooked at some flaws, people seem to have enjoyed the trailer."Alright, lets get started." I yell out, everyone scattering and getting in position
After some months of shooting we were able to publish the first two episodes. The feedback was great and people were already dressing up and cosplaying as the characters. It was a dream come true, some saying that this is my best work yet.
"Get a hold of yourself Y/n.." I mumble to myself as I stare at the edited scene where Eren was learning his gear, it looked somewhat off.
"Cody! Take a look at this." I yell out. Couple of seconds later my partner leans his arm against my shoulder, looking at the scene in front of him.
"Hm, yeah I see what you mean. I'll tell Amanda to review it again." He casually says and backs off.
"I think it looks fine Y/n.." A soft voice says from behind me. I turn my head slightly around while my arms are crossed against my chest,
"Oh, Armin!" He gives me a warm smile and waves shyly at me,
"You're such a perfectionist Y/n.. Now thinking about it. You've always been like this, haven't you?" I give him a small grin,
"I guess that's how I am." I shrug and fully turn my body towards him.
"Now come one, let's get to work." I walk pass him, patting his shoulder along the way

The video shoot has finished and I was exhausted. I couldn't help but slouch and hold my head with the cup of my hands as I walked towards my car. It was 12 already and almost everyone left at 10, but I stayed over to see the clips and what I want to cut off and keep in.
"Tsk, stupid tiredness." I mumble to myself, taking out my keys from my pocket. I click the button and the car doors slide right up.
"Want me to drive?" A deep rough voice creeps up from behind,
"If you insist..~" I sing, knowing who he is I enter the car. He lazily raises his arms to close the door. I stare at his piercing sharp grey eyes, his toned body and his jet black hair. He was extremely attractive there was no doubt about that. He closes my door and walks to the driver's side, entering.
"This cars smells like shit, fucked in here or what?" He starts the car and adjusts his seat to his comfort.
"I let my sister use the car again." I casually say as I open my purse, taking out a box of cigarettes.
"Oi, I'm driving. No cigarettes, didn't I say to quit those?" He looks slightly at me, adjusting the mirror. "You didn't say for how long~" I reply but put away the box anyways.
A couple of seconds later we drive off the set's parking lot. The radio played and we stayed in a comfortable silence,
"Yah know, Petra has been talking about you all over Instabook.." i look at him, crossing my legs loosely.
"Hm?" He hums and looks at me with the corner of his eye, "And that's suppose to concern me how?.." He says coldly, focusing back on the empty road,
"shheSh have some pity for your ex-girlfriend Levi." I laugh and switch leg position.
"You're going to be working with her in this show. Especially when she's your characters love interest." I pout and look out the window, "and you're a little brat for doing that to me." He shoots me a glare as he makes a sharp left turn,
"Hey! It goes well with your character! Dark.. mysterious! Cold!! Bitter like black tea! Petra is a kind.. sweet like a lollipop." I mumble the last part, "A lollipop that has melted in some dog shit." He makes a smooth stop on a red light,
"Hm.." I make no comment and look forward, staring at the red light. Levi rest his right hand on the steering wheel, his face emotionless as ever.
I never knew what happened between those two but I'll never have the guts to ask, especially cause it's Levi.He drops me off to my gated home. He parks and gets out of the car. We ride home together since he is my neighbor and it would be just a waste of time and gas if we brought our own cars to work.
He throws me the keys, "See you tomorrow, night." He waves me off as he walks.
I sigh slightly and stare at him,
Me and him aren't really close, we had somewhat of a weird friendship in high school. We never talked but we respected each other because of how hard we worked. Until know we just have have small conversations and then just silence.
Will it always be like this?
