Forget Me Not (Levi Ackerman x Reader)

Chapter XXII

Fluff? Omg yes!

The Scout Regiment is finally out of chaos. Everything came back to normal and when I say everything, that means, the regiment for guarding the inner walls and serving the royalty are no exception.

After the fraudulent King was dethroned, every regions inside the walls have met a difference. So much happened when Historia crowned as the true ruler which they call their Queen. Improvements and massive change was introduced to all of the citizens.

From a new establishments for educators, medical experts, production of goods and supplies, market, and such gave more life inside the large confining walls. Every damage was repaired. Orphanage and shelter for animals were established. Farms are enlarged and provided an opportunity for those who wanted income. And of course, the underground. It is a site that couldnt be missed.

As the Queen works on how to make a change in the underground, Y/N, Isabel and Farlan volunteered themselves to help following Levi to give some instructions and guides on how the underground works, what should be change and the situation of every people living underneath them.

At first, Y/N was in a second thought about it. She promised herself not to go back there because of his father. But thinking about the children that was once like them, she made a decision and was the one who take the lead actually to persuade Isabel and Farlan to come along. She might see her father again, but at least this time, she is with the trio and especially with Levi.

Back in the headquarters, change is not really the word of the day. Survey Corps is still the same. Paperworks, trainings, normal gossips of cadets and of course Hange's experiments. It is still cheery as usual, a thing the Commander doesn't want to make a different. Nothing is new but a lot of interesting moments occurred.

Like this one:

One morning, another fine day offered, almost everyone are slacking since the Commander didn't gave too much works to them except for the daily training exercises to keep their body fit in everyday duties and for the upcoming expeditions.

Y/N was on the field, doing a lot of things she has to catch up as much as she can while Levi locked himself up in his office to do his usual routine. A girl approach her and joined her with her training delightfully. And as they train, a conversation was build. They are talking about life and such until the topic was focused in romantic relationships. They were happy to what they are talking about since it is the love of their life being talked about.

"What? You forgave him that easily?" Asked the girl named Cecilia. Y/N nodded confused at the disbelief expression from her.

"Why? It will be pointless. In the end, we will run to each other anyway."  She answered.

"No no no. You could have waited more from him to beg you. If he didn't give up, then you can tell that he loves you."

With that being said, she became silent. Not because Cecilia is right, but because she was being so insulting and wrong at the same time.

"You can't just tell the real love by that. True love isn't define by time."

"Yes it is. Look at us, Matthew asked for me five years ago. That means he love me very much. And you know what? When we bicker, he will give me flowers and gifts. But I am not forgiving him easily, I am testing him if he will continue to apologize."

"But did you felt the love?"

"Everyday, he is telling me that he loves me."

"Is that a real love though?"

This time, it is Cecilias turn to become mute, thinking deeply for a retort. Y/N waited patiently, making her realize her point. Matthew, Cecilia's long time boyfriend. She know that guy. And believe it or not, he once admitted that he has a crush on Y/N. But Y/N didn't took advantage of his feelings and shoo him away. From that day, she already understood his behavior. And as Cecilia debates with her, she cannot help but to pity her.
