---- THE NEXT DAY ----

Every once in a while, the vice president would release a sigh. This, of course, drew concern from his loyal secretary that's sitting beside him on the sofa. The two are 'chilling' in Levi's private office, scrolling the tablet and browsing several places for a preference.

"Where do you prefer, Mr. Ackerman ?"

The man racks a hand through his raven hair, "I haven't made my mind yet. I have to come up with an option that will leave me with no regrets. But, come to think of it, it doesn't matter where because we won't be stepping out of our hotel anyway." He answered bluntly.

"Why not ?" (Y/n) tilted her head to the side, "what do you want to do instead all day in the hotel ?"

Levi averts his eyes from the tablet and sends her a smug look, "I'm thinking of bed activities."

Her eyebrows scrunch in confusion, "what kind of bed activities are you-" (Y/n)'s eyes widened in realization, "Mr. Ackerman !!" She scolds him, completely blushing from the erotic thoughts.

"How long are you going to call me 'Mr. Ackerman' ?" Levi mocked her, mimicking (Y/n)'s voice when she addressed him as 'Mr. Ackerman'. A few seconds after that, Levi felt a great amount of pain on his back and he choked, almost tumbling to the floor due to the sudden force on his back.

(Y/n) retracts her hand as fast as lightning, "oh shit... I- Did I hit you too hard ?"

"We have just a few days until the wedding, so please kindly spare my sorry ass if you want me walking down the aisle." He grunted.

"I'm so sorry, are you alright ?"

The woman draws circles on his back to subside the pain she just caused. But Levi turns his head to glare at her with his icy eyes, "if you're sorry, then blow on my wound to make it all better. I'm pretty sure you left a mark there."

"But.. your back is fully clothed when I hit you. Why would I need to blow it ?"

"Oh ? Are you trying to disobey me, brat ? How about I make you blow on something nicer down there ? My coc-"

(Y/n) threw a small cushion directly into his face before sprinting out of his private office with a red face. Her lewd thoughts are currently getting the best of her. After gathering her composure and putting back her professional image, (Y/n) makes her way towards the Planning Division room with small stacks of white envelopes.

"Um.. guys ?"

Her workmates stop doing their tasks and set their attention on (Y/n), Eren sends her a questioning look, "are we in trouble ?"

"No. I just want to inform you that.. I have the wedding invitations for all of you." She said, hiding her tiny blush.

"OH MY GOD !"

"CONGRATULATIONS !!"

"OUR HARDWORKING SECRETARY HAS FINALLY FOUND HER HAPPINESS !"

Cheers and screams of excitement erupted from (Y/n)'s colleagues, and she couldn't help but feel grateful for having supportive friends. Sasha squeals as she hugs the secretary tightly, and Mikasa is also there, trying to pry off Sasha's hands to prevent the brown haired employee from suffocating (Y/n).

Day by day, the preparations are handled by Levi and his friends. Erwin even hired a professional wedding organizer, and Hanji searches for the best place for their upcoming wedding. (Y/n) is also busy sending invitations to some friends, relatives, and important public figures. Not only that, Mikasa helps (Y/n) with several ideas about how the dress would look like. The clock keeps ticking and the days move forward, until...

[D-1]

Even on the day before the wedding, the couple are still cooped up in the office since they can't just ditch their work easily. So there she is, sitting on the sofa across from Levi in his private office again. They have been spending a lot of time working side by side these days.

"The wedding's tomorrow, so just go home and get some rest brat."

After Levi broke the silence, (Y/n) looked up from the papers on her lap, "I can't unless you take time off too. It's not fair."

"That sounds like you don't want to be apart, even for one second." He teases the woman.

"It's along the lines of that, so... yeah."

(Y/n) returns her attention back to the documents while Levi seems to be thinking of something until his silver eyes land on her phone that's laying on the table. Without her knowing, Levi reached for his secretary's phone while dialing her number. It only takes a few seconds for her phone to vibrate.

The woman turns her head into the direction where she left her phone, but it isn't there. She looks at Levi who's holding the missing device, "what are you doing with my phone ?"

"Tch, I'm not liking this at all. Look."

Levi shows her vibrating phone that displays : [Vice President Levi Ackerman]

He begins to type something on her phone before handing it back to the confused secretary. (Y/n) cautiously receives her phone and checks if there's any kind of change on it. On the contact list, Levi's name is no longer 'Vice President Levi Ackerman'. He had changed it to 'Husband'.

Upon seeing this, she couldn't help but snicker a bit, "oh my.."

"I'll be out for a bit, I need to hand over these papers to Armin." (Y/n) stood from the comfy sofa and exited his private office in search of the male blue eyed employee. She quickly spotted him with his nose buried behind the monitor, "Hey there, this is the list of Mr. Ackerman's current project and the officers in charge. I listed them so they're easy to check."

Armin frowns, "(Y/n), you're working this hard even when the wedding's tomorrow ? At this rate you'll even be working on your honeymoon."

"I agree with Armin here." Eren added.

"Guys, listen. During (Y/n)'s honeymoon, whatever comes up, you guys are not allowed to contact (Y/n), alright ? This woman needs some time to unwind and have a taste of freedom."

"Yeah ! And if I may add, (Y/n), don't use protection on your honeymoon ! We want to see mini carbon copies of you and Mr. Ackerman !"

Connie gives her a thumbs up, "Just relax and do all the things you've wanted to do, okay ? Don't let the work be a cockblock. We'll take care of it !"

The other cheered in agreement, wanting the poor secretary to enjoy the moment of her life for once. With a slightly blushing face, (Y/n) sends a shy nod to her friends, "t-thank you. You guys are the best ! So uh.. See you tomorrow hehe." With that, she skipped out from the planning division room.

--- TIME SKIP -- AT NIGHT ---

"So, it's only a day to go. Congratulations."

Zeke somehow manages to persuade Levi to have a man to man talk. They both end up in a random coffee shop, and it's half past nine o'clock at night. At first, Levi refuses. But after seeing the look on Zeke's face, he finally gave it a shot.

"It's not long before you leave, right ?" Levi inquired, "will you be going back to Marley ?"

"Nope. I just.." The blonde heaves a sigh, "I just want to travel to wherever life guides me. Think of it as a journey to discover myself. I thought maybe, if I roam until I'm exhausted and come back to where I belong, then it'll be alright."

"I see."

The bearded man then clears his throat, "and.. uh.. I want to apologize for.. all the things I have done and said."

Levi's face doesn't budge a bit, but he only jerked his head as a sign for Zeke to proceed.

"I distorted our past. I twisted the story and told people otherwise. It was actually me who stole your food just to see you starving even more back then. I bullied you countless times and, and... I even envied everything about you when you managed to escape the Underground and start making money, even a new company. I thought of many ways to take you down, but you're just so.. invincible. Not only that, I also tried to take away the one you love just to make you suffer for once. Back then, I really wanted to win just for once so I tried to take things away from you. But now I realized, you have completely won. Tomorrow, you'll have (Y/n) by your side forever."

He slouches back on the chair after getting everything off his chest. Levi only hummed before staring at the man, "it's a surprise that you have the balls to say that. I bet you're too scared to tell the truth to the public. You ran to me instead."

"Levi, I'm sorr-"

"Save it," The raven haired man cuts him off, "I don't give a shit about the past. What matters is.."

"As a winner, I'll finally claim my beautiful prize tomorrow. And you're going to watch me there, like fucking a loser."
