Bit By Bit (Levi x F! Reader)

Erwin Is Plotting

"Did you pack everything you own?" Eren stood at the door frame, holding his own bag. They were moving out today, to the old scout regimen headquarters.

"Have you seen my antique box?" Y/n scratched her head, bag resting on the bed half opened while some clothes were scattered. "I can't find it."

"I told you yesterday-"

"'Gather all your stuff, and make sure to be ready.' Yes Eren, but I fell asleep when I told myself to take a little break." She continued to look around. "If the Captain walks in, then congrats. He's gonna be bitching again." A week has passed since then, the commotion had died down a bit, but. . . Things are still pretty heated between the captain and cadet.

Insults are being thrown back and forth between the two, Levi tried to be. . . Professional, but the girl would try to mess around to ruin his mood. She was punished accordingly like: No dinner or breakfast for her, but it doesn't seem to work. One time the other day she dared to put chilis on his meal out of spite. She got a good scolding from Erwin, but Hanji on the other hand seemed to enjoy what's been unfolding the past few days, in her own words she would say 'Things are much livelier than before.'

"Found it." Eren reached his hand underneath the bed, one hand holding unto the side rail to support his form.

Y/n looked as Eren's head went underneath the bed, his grip on the bed hardened, she smiled. "I wonder what the new location will be like." Eren stood up holding the box in front of her. "Needless to say, I wonder if they will leave us alone." She took the box, shoving it into her bag.

"They?" Eren looked at her.

"The Captain's Squad, they seem to. . ." She closed her bag, thinking of the words she's gonna say. ". . . Not like, or hate us in some way. Especially that Olou guy."

"They're just alert." Eren reasoned, looking at the girl that was gathering her clothes putting it on another bag

"So hinting that they don't like us adds up to being alert?" She huffed, hands on both sides, eyeing the male in front of her. "I can feel those judging eyes, Eren." She squinted her eyes

"But they're acting nice too."

"Keyword, A. C. T." She spelled. "Act."

"We don't have time for this, finish your packing. Call me whenever you're done, I'll help you carry them to the ground floor." Eren shook his head smiling, taking his own bag from the floor then walked out the door, closing it before the girl could say anything.

' Stop taking their side.' Y/n softly glared at the closed door, then continued her packing.

"The old base, as what's expected from an old renovated castle."Olou spoke. They were riding on their own horses, Y/n and Eren shared one horse as both of them were placed in the middle, Eren being the one guiding the horse as the girl was leaning on his back arms wrapped around his waist her eyes shut closed. She's been trying to avoid Olou's babbling since earlier.

The castle was getting nearer, and thus Oluo's talking is getting more and more annoying. "To think that this oversized castle would end up as the perfect holding place for you. . ." Y/n tighten her hold on Eren's shirt, the boy looking back at her for a bit to assure her that it's okay and that she shouldn't mind it. "Don't get cocky, rookie." Olou moved closer to their horse, eyeing Eren which made the girl lift her head and look at Olou, glaring.

"Do you mind stopping that?"

"Y/n." Eren whispered

"So the girl is talking now," Olou leaned in closer.
