I wore a nice pair of black trousers and a nice white shirt. I fixed the bottom of my shirt and slipped on some shoes to go with my outfit. I take my badge off my jacket and place it on my shirt, I then grab a tie and tie it around my neck. I grab some money and put it in my trouser pocket.

Knock Knock Knock

I walk over and open the door.

"You look nice," Bertholdt sweated slightly and rubbed the back of his neck

"So do you," I smiled

"Ready?" He asked

"Yeah," I replied getting out my room and closing the door

We both begin to walk, I was following him as I had no clue where we were going.

"Reiner would not shut up about this 'date'," He said

A date..?

"I wouldn't think so, He's always going on about stuff like that," I laughed, "Normally it's him and Christa,"

"Yeah, Always entertaining to watch Ymir intervene," Bertholdt joined in laughing

"The best part has to be when he tries to act hero but is thrown away at the last second," I said

"Definitely," Bertholdt

We slowed our laughing.

We continued to chat as we walked, he led me to a small restaurant, It was nice, A few tables with candles in the middle, there was a backroom for making food. We sat at a table.

"So what's going on between you and Annie?" I asked looking at the brunette

"N-Nothing, I kinda liked her for a while but moved on quickly," He answered

"And that stutter doesn't mean anything," I smiled

"No, I mean it," He smiled back, "What about you and Marco?"

"He's cute, Those damn freckles are beautiful but not my type," I replied

"Y-You like his freckles?" He asked

"There's always something you like in someone," I said, "For example, Marco's Freckles, Reiners friendly attitude, most of the time," I muttered the last bit, "Then there's that person you like multiple things, Who for me I'd say You," 

"M-Me?" He asked surprised

"Yeah, Your hair falls perfectly on your face, Your emerald eyes shine like no other, you tend to be very cute, why am I saying all this out loud?" I questioned myself

He blushes a bright red, "W-Well, I'd have to same for you," He pauses, "Y-Your hair is always perfect, your (E/C) eyes a-are always shining w-when I see them and your personality is one I always want to b-be around, you always make me feel more c-c-confident than I actually am,"

I look at him and smile.

"May I take your order?" A girl asked

We both give our orders and she leaves.

"Bertl, can I be serious for a moment?" I asked

"What's up?" He asked

"I'm not saying this will happen but, what happens if you're caught?" I asked

"W-What do you mean?" He began to sweat, hoping he wasn't right about what I was going on about

"Bertl, you know," I said

"I-" His sweating got worse, "We'll have to leave," I know he hates talking about it but it needs to be done

"Then remember to bring me with you," I said giving him my best smile
