The wedding ended and the party began. Eren had no idea that the people of Shiganshina liked to party. They had set tables aside in the clearing, putting them up when the wedding ended.

Everyone took their seats, sitting at round tables. Eren and Levi, of course, sat at the biggest table, accompanied by Carla, The Elder, all the bridesmaid, Farlan and Armin. The councillors and Kings sat at the table next to them.

Levi refused to let Eren's hand go, not that Eren minded. He felt so content.

Everyone began talking, waiting for the food to come. Connie was just adding the finishing touches. Levi kissed Eren's hand.

"You look great," he complimented. Eren smiled and blushed slightly.

"Thanks. The black strips at the back were my idea. It was meant to be a plain white suit. I wanted to add a bit of me to it," Eren replied. Levi nodded.

"It suits you. You should wear white more often," he said, but Eren shook his head.

"I'm not to fond of white. It's too pure, and you of all people know that I'm not entirely pure," Eren smirked, leaning in to kiss Levi again. Levi was now his forever. Nothing could stop them. Levi kissed Eren back, putting a bit of pressure into it.

"Okay guys. I think you can continue all that later on tonight," Connie said, placing food in front of them. "Everyone here already saw you kiss ten minutes ago. It's now time for food."

Levi broke the kiss, half glaring at Connie. Connie smiled innocently and walked away. Food was going around each table, placed down by Sasha and many other kitchen staff.

After every plate was set down, Eren watched as The Elder stood up.

"Well, taking that I was the one who gave Eren away today, I think I should say a few words before we dig into this amazing feast prepares by Chiefs Connie and Sasha, along with our very own Carla Jäeger. Eren, you have always been like a son to me and I couldn't be happier for you. I watched you grow up hating and fearing Alphas, but here you are - married to the most powerful Alpha in Maria. I'm proud of you. Rivaille, I entrust Eren to you. I trust you to make him happy. Now, let's all raise our glass to Rivaille and Eren Jäeger-Ackerman. You can thank Eren for the name. May your love never fail," The Elder said. Eren smiled.

"It was actually Levi who suggested the name. It's his fault," Eren teased. A few people laughed, before everyone stood up and held their glass up.

"Rivaille and Eren Jäeger-Ackerman," they all said, before drinking. Everyone sat down, before beginning to eat.

The food tasted amazing. It was an entire banquet, which they didn't really need, but he guessed that the councilmen made sure of it.

Eren felt a tug at his sleeve. He looked to his right to see Phelisha.

"What's wrong?" he asked, smiling. She smiled back.

"Come to our table? It's boring," she asked. Eren smiled, before turning to Levi.

"I've been summoned," he muttered. Levi huffed, but nodded.

"Shout if you want saving," he replied. Eren kissed Levi, before following Phelisha. Levi sat by himself for a while, until Farlan came over and sat next to him. "Well, King Levi, how is married life for you?" Farlan asked. Levi huffed.

"Haven't experienced it yet. I hate these parties, but I guess I can last," Levi replied. Farlan smiled and patted Levi on the shoulder.

"Hang in there. In a few hours you'll have Eren all to yourself. I just feel sorry for him. The pain he'll feel tomorrow morning," Farlan teased. Levi rolled his eyes and shoved his best friend, making him laugh. "My guess is that the dancing is going to start soon. Eren has to dance with Carla first, and then you can join in - if no one else takes him first."
