Importance of My Love (Shingeki No Kyojin) *Completed*

How They Met

(A/N: The first few chapters will lead up to present time! So therefore, the way Levi and Sora met will be first then Sora's Pregnancy etc. But it starts out in present time)

Levi wakes up due to the blinding sunlight that is hitting his eyes. He groans and curses under his breath. It was early... Levi can tell. The sun is barely up, and fog creeps over his home like a cloud covering a village. He sighs and turns the other way, to his right, wrapping his arm around the one he loved. Sora. She was soundly sleeping beside him. Her beautiful dark brown hair carefully tucked under the blanket that covers her whole body, but the slight tips of her shoulders, revealing the strap to her tank top.

Levi listens to her breathe. He had always loved to listen to her quietly breathe while sleeping. It is almost a must every night. Sometimes, if she had woken up, she would find him starring in her face. Not close to being startled, she would fall back to sleep within seconds, smiling.

Once Levi gets tired enough, he tries to fall back to sleep, however, with no success. He hears a door open down the hallway. Jordan. He was apart of the 105th training regimen and he was home for the weekend, due to some holiday thing Levi has no idea what it is about. Sora and Levi, just 14 years ago, were blessed with a wonderful, kind, and sometimes cocky, son they named Jordan.

But now, since Jordan is up, Levi knows he has to as well. That boy could never make himself some eggs or toast. Despite his uncomfortable and awkward way of asking for help, he just would never tell his parents he was hungry. He would say, I don't want to trouble you guys." Nicely mannered, but too nice.

Levi sits up on his bed. A cool breeze, brushes up against his bare chest. He shivers and quickly grabs his robe that is neatly hung up in the closet in the spotless room. Everything is perfectly arranged in the way Levi likes it. Sometimes he would award himself with a beer or two. That was in the past though. Now he just rewards himself by doing absolutely nothing.

Once he puts his robe on, he covers up his wife. Lately, she has been very sickly. Not lately, but for the past few years. Doctors just want her to rest and give her medicine every month to help her with pain she has. Levi has worried about her many times. Like when she cries after frequent nightmares she would have. She would cry in pain due to stomach pains or a pulsing headache. There are so many other things... Fevers, colds... Levi had wished he can feel her pain, or at least take it away. All he would do was hug her and let her cry into his chest.

Levi sighs and covers Sora up a little snugger and sits back down next to her, careful not to wake her up. He lowers his head and kisses Sora's cold cheek. He then brings up his hand to stroke her silky hair. I wonder what she is dreaming about. He thinks to himself.

Levi stands back up and exits the room while quietly closing the door. He walks down the small hallway that leads to the kitchen. He can smell the scent of freshly brewed tea. It is like music to his ears.

"Oi dad." Jordan says to Levi as he sits at the table, while reading over some papers. Levi pours himself some tea and sits down across from his son. "Morning Jordan." Levi murmurs as he takes a sip of his tea. Once he sets it down on a small glass plate, Levi asks, "What you got there? More information about your graduation? Or was it about the recent titan outbreak?"

Jordan look up from looking at the papers. His brown eyes meeting his fathers. "It is actually both. The graduation isn't that far way, so I was looking over each Regimen to see what each does, just to refresh my mind. And, I'm thinking about in the Scout Regimen like you pops." Levi's eyes slightly widen as he stopped picking his cup up, freezing his hand in place.

"Scouts... Are you sure? Don't get me wrong, you are talented and at the top of your class, but, I heard from Hanji that there was a huge outbreak of titans charging in from Wall Maria. If you join them, I'm sure you would have to help with the mission to bring them down. Hanji may be smart, I guess, but she is commander and she would send any newbie into all out war. And..."

"Hm?"

"What about your mother?"

"Ma..."

"She would be heartbroken to find out that you would want to go into the Scouts. But, knowing her, she would want you to find your own dreams, and to follow what ever you choose, if you think it is right. However, if we had lost you, she would be more devastated than I probably would."

"Really...? Oh... But, you said she would be more devastated, why would that be? A motherly thing? Excuse me for asking, but, would this have to do with something in the past? You never told me how you and Ma met. You did say something about underground, but that's it."

Levi sighs as he pours himself another cup of tea. "Your mother and I... Had tough times before we had you. The underground thing, was the fact that we used to live underground. Never again will I go down to that place, nor will I ever take you. It's too dangerous. It we too dangerous to your mother, due to a past event that had happened, but I would just start about how we met..."

Levi POV

Bellow Wall Sina, was a hole of despair, the underground city. Poverty, thugs, bars. Anything that you can imagine that is wrong with the world, is down there. I lived down in that hole. No one kept me company, not that I needed anyone. I actually was a thug myself. I would swing through the ugly dump, ruining others crop carts while swiping some myself some food. I didn't have no job, and I didn't need one. I was a thief. Why not? I needed food. But I was kidnapped to join the Scouts above ground. A few years later, I returned.

Long ago, I was walking the streets on a normal day. The smelly streets wreaked even more than normal. In was on a secret mission the commander sent me on. The name I dare not to speak of. But for the sake of this story, Erwin Smith.

I was supposed to investigate some building that was rumored to have screams coming from it. People around complained they couldn't get sleep due to the screams. Even though the Military Police could take care that, I went on Erwin's orders.

Once I go there, a small building in only a ground floor, was the sight of the screams. When I enters the door, there was a foul smell, like blood. The room was pitch black and a single candle sat next to me. A match was there that was unlit. It was like someone was expecting me. I lifted up my boot and quickly sparked the sparked the match, lighting the candle. I looked around. Other matches and candles went around the room. Without turning around, I lit all around the room. Finally, the room is light enough to look in. Once I turned, my heart stopped.

A young girl, maybe 14 years old, laying on the ground. I could only see her back, as she laid there. The floor was dirty and freezing. She was in a nightgown that had been almost torn off from the looks of it. I think it was stretched on the back tightly as well. A small pools of blood is everywhere as well.

I decide to walk slowly around the girl, so I can see her face. Trust me... I was scared for her life once I saw her. Her face was slightly bruised. Her shoulders what looked to be smooth, was also bruised. Her legs were tied in rope, and her arms were as well. Torture... It had to be... Once I got down to her stomach, my black heart truly was about to burst out of my chest because...

Her stomach was bulged out... She wasn't overweight... She was... 8 or 9 months pregnant...
