I shouldn't love him

"For you"

Eren walked away from Levi and opened the door to the kitchen to see Historia to his left.

She looked worried but still put on a smile. "Really? Girlfriend?" I think you should've said fiancé." The nervous women laughed at her own joke to hold back her worry.

Eren let out a sigh of relief. "So you were listening?"

"Umhm." She nodded looking up at Eren.

"Good girl." He took Historias hand and walked into the dining area where Levi and Erwin were patiently waiting. Eren hoped and prayed they wouldn't recognize her but by the sudden change in both of their faces they definitely do.

"This is Christa." Eren introduced her still holding her hand. He caressed his thumb over her hand. Mainly to calm himself down.

Levi was eyeing Historia down so much to the point where he was almost squinting.

Eren pulled Historia into a half hug to make them look more like a couple. To his surprise she wrapped her arms around him and leaned on his chest slightly.

Levi looked up at Erwin who almost had the same expression on his face. Both of their mouths were slightly parted like they were going to say something. They had a small conversation with their eyes that said "do you see what I see."

Eren knew they had caught on. But he played it safe and remained calm. Historia doesn't know he knows she's the princess. She's still under the impression that Eren thinks she's a runaway.

So if they do ask Eren can act just as surprised as them and turn everything on Historia.

No

She's lying for me so I should do the same.

Why?

Eren was getting annoyed with himself. He's never one to do things for other people if it doesn't benefit him. So why should he help Historia?

Levi looked back at Historia and cleared his throat. "Good evening Christa.. sorry to bother you but do you mind us asking you a few questions regarding a case we're investing?"

She sook her head. " I don't mind."

"Ok... Were you recently assaulted by three soldiers here?"

She nodded her head.

"How did you handle the situation?"

"I didn't really do much. Eren had stepped in and got rid of them for me." Historia looked up at Eren for  approval and he just smiled at her.

"And how did he get rid of them..."

"He had pulled out his gun to make them stop.. he did pull the trigger but he missed. He was just threatening them
to leave."

Eren scoffed at that statement and almost rolled his eyes. He most certainly didn't miss. He found that ironic how something he has so much pride for had to be lied about.

"Hm.. do you know those guys personally?"

"Of course I don't. Literally the only thing that happened was three soldiers came in here, got drunk, threatened me, and Eren defended me, I don't see what the problem is. Y'all should be questioning the people y'all let into the military rather then the victims." Historias tone got angry and Levi sighed.

"No need to get so worked up.. our work is done here, We'll be back if we have any more questions. Nice meeting you Christa." Levi reached out to shake her hand.

Both Erwin and Eren were surprised because that's weird behavior coming from Levi. He never shakes hands.

"I'll see you in the near future maybe." Levi walked past the two and out the door followed by commander Erwin. "Bye Jeager."

Eren smiled at the two of their way out. He has a smile similar to a toddler who always got their way.

"I didn't know you could lie like that, you did well." Eren pulled Historia into a full hug and she smiled, enjoying the praise. "For you."

Immediately after stepping outside Erwin and Levi began to discuss.

"That's Princess Historia, I'm almost certain she is." Levi turned to Erwin.

"She could just be a look alike."

"I considered that at first, but when I shook her hand she was wearing the Reiss family's ring. That's definitely her."

Erwin sighed from stress. He put his hands up to his face and messaged his temple. "If that really is her why did she run away and what does Eren want with her?

"I don't know.. should we report this?" Levi asked and Erwin shook his head. "We need more evidence.. Levi can you keep an Eye on these two from now on? I need you to hang around this bar a lot more often."

"Yes sir."
