𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗹𝘆. As soon as we steeped the front entrance, near the fountain, the paparazzi swarmed us like a pack of hyenas.

"Y/n!"

"Y/n!"

"Me Ackerman!"

"Y/n I love your dress!"

"Mr. Ackerman, who are you wearing?"
"Y/n who are you wearing?"

I kept walking and sped up my pace a little.  Y/n however, did not, she seemed to get distracted.

"Look at their beautiful rings!"

"Mr. Ackerman over here please."

I took her hand and brought her up to my speed. "You're like a deer in headlights," I commented.

She awkwardly smiled and apologized.

Aside from that, I could have sworn I saw Petra standing next to one of the trees near the entrance of the estate. I guess I was imagining things.
———————---Back to you sis—————————
I thought I saw Petra near a tree next to the entrance.

Great, I'm seeing her other places now.

I know he doesn't like the paparazzi but it probably would've been better to stop for pictures, to keep the stunt up, of course.

We walked inside to see a few other party guests near the entrance placing their coats away. Through the hallway, you spotted Kenny, who was wildly laughing.

Everyone there looked absolutely gorgeous. Loud music rang through the halls. A swarm of party guests surrounded you and Levi. You and he didn't pay much attention.

There were a lot of people here already. I guess Kenny does have a lot of friends, assuming all these guests are mostly his friends.

You had realized you hadn't taken your hand away from Levi's. It felt natural, part of you didn't really want to let the warmness of his hand go.

You couldn't stay with him all night, or could you?

Would you?

No, I don't want to come off as clingy. Levi would definitely mind me staying with him all through the party. I'm probably already pushing it with being so close to him.

"Where is that bastard?" Levi sighed.  He looked around until he spotted Kenny conversing with a few other people. Kenny looked in our direction and grinned.

"Levi, Y/n!" Kenny greeted. He walked over to where you were.

"Y/n You look beautiful." You smiled, "Thank you, Kenny." One thing you didn't notice earlier about him was that he was still sporting his iconic bowler hat. You smile at the thought.

"Miss. Ackerman!"

"Miss. Ackerman who are you wearing!"

You turn your head and see Mikasa, accompanied by someone else, waking at the entrance of the house.

You immediately ran over to her and gave her an enormous hug.

"Hey, you're here!"

"Y/nnnn!" Mikasa squealed. You let go of her and she stares at you intently. I know I already said this but you look absolutely stunning."

She takes your hand only now realizing the ring on your finger. " Holy shit, did he get this for you?" 

"Can we get a close-up on the ring?"

You laugh.

"So who's your friend?"

"Ladies over here please!"

"Oh, this is my boyfriend, Armin," She gingerly pointed to the tall, blonde man shyly smiling while some of the paparazzi ogled at him.

The ocean-eyed boy gave you a small wave and a smile.

"Sir what's your name!"

"What are you wearing tonight!"

"Miss Ackerman, who is this?

So she has a boyfriend, and here I thought her love life was as bad as mine.  You said to yourself. I thought we were in this together.

"It's nice to meet you." You greet.

"Can I get a picture of all three!"

"I didn't tell you did I? She stated. "I probably didn't." Mikasa looked at you and smiled, you couldn't help but grin back.

You sigh. You and she knew you weren't mad at her it was all just play.

You were getting the details later, of course.

—————————-Levi's POV————————-—-

I didn't realize Y/n's hand was still intertwined with mine until she let go. I don't know why but I had the impression that she would stay with me all through the party.

Since she seemed so nervous before, It wasn't as if I needed her by my side.
I heard some of the paparazzi scream something about an Ackerman, so the gloomy brat must be here.

No wonder she left then.

"Are you listening to me?" Kenny stated. I probably spaced out.

"No," I stated. It's not like he said anything important-

"LEVII!"  A creature screeched from around the area.

Fuck. Shit.

As soon as I looked in the direction of the screech, I saw Hange running towards me. Before  I knew it I was engrossed in a hug.

"Let me go, shithead," I grumbled. She doesn't.

"Hange was looking for you," Kenny stated. I glared at him and in turn, he smiled at me, before leaving to go mingle.

"Bastard." I spit. "Let go, four eyes."

"No, you've been ignoring my calls and texts," She stated. "And what's this I hear about Erwin meeting Y/n before me?"

"Where is sheeee?"Hange whined.

This damn woman.
"The brats outside, now let the fuck go." I hissed.

Hange instead hugged me tighter.
Fucking hell.

-----------------------Your POV.----------------------

After you were done with the pictures, you, Mikasa, and Armin went back inside.

You quickly noticed that there was a woman with glasses aggressively hugging Levi. Though he seemed to have this deathly look in his eye.

There was also another man behind them, slowly backing away. He looked familiar but you couldn't tell exactly who he was.

This woman must be Hange.

The very pretty woman was giving Levi an earful when you walked up. You smiled at the sight.

I guess I can poke the bear.

"Levi!" You say. The pair looks at you. Levi looks at you with confusion probably taking notice of the enthusiasm that came out of you when saying his name.

Where did my confidence come from?

You walk over to him, smiling, and take his hand into yours. You look at Levi who has an unreadable expression.

You turn to the lady in front of you.
"You must be Hange-

"Y/n!" She exclaimed, taking you into a hug. Once she let go, she examined you.

"Omg, you are so pretty." Hange complimented. You laugh it off and tell her how she is so much more beautiful.

You look at Levi who looks annoyed but relaxed, being out of Hange's grasp. While Hange was talking, You thought about the time before when you first met Erwin. You never got him back for that.

Looking at his scowling face you notice the smallest hint of red dusted upon his face.

Hange picked up on it too.

"Looking a little red their Levi." Hange teased. Levi shot her a dirty look.

You look at him and smile. "Are you ok love, you look sick "

"I'm fine." He mutters. Though he did turn away from you after speaking. What was the matter?

"How did you get someone like Y/n?"She asked. "And why are you with someone like Levi? You do know he's 5'3."

You smiled.

"Oh come on you can tell me, did he force you, Is he paying you?" She quizzed.

Not me, but he is paying someone.

"Hange" Levi warned.

"What, there's no way shorty scored a babe  like you." She complimented.

"No, it's nothing like that," You expressed. "I just love him." Uh

"I told you she's a weirdo, Hange." Mikasa stated." How can someone love shorty?"
