The Pretender

Summary:

Keep you in the dark, you know they all...

...Pretend.

It wasn't like you were totally friendless, however. As there was a knock on your door before you had intended to even open your book. You look up a bit before putting it in your drawer and going to the door before slightly opening it ajar. In front of you stood a man who was on the tall side, with dark brown hair tied into a bun and bright green eyes staring before you.

"Mind if I come in?" He asked a bit suddenly, taking you aback as he waited for your answer. You knew this man. He just sounded so familiar. But then you realize quickly who you were talking to.

Eren Yeager. A soldier in the 104th Survey Corps notorious for his everlasting hatred of Titans, after one ate and devoured his mother. He had since departed his position as he had later on accepted who he was meant to be.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A soldier in the Survey Corps battles not only dealing with cannibalistic Titans that plan to wipe out the human race, but her relationship with the strongest soldier in history falls apart right before her very eyes over a very silly argument. But not before someone else plans to rescue her from herself.

Chapter 1: Breakup/Survival of the Fittest

Chapter Text

"Levi! Levi, wait. Can't we just talk about this first?!" You shouted as you were following after Levi after the two of you had somehow gotten into a rather big argument over something trivial. Again. What about, exactly? Who the fuck knows. But this time, nothing seemed to have gotten past the dark-haired man. He would somehow react to pretty much anything. No matter how big or small, it was a big deal to him.

"There is nothing to talk about. We're done. I only want to see you as my subordinate. Not my girlfriend." Levi shouted at you, causing you to stop and try and hold back tears. You and Levi were dating for a little over two years, and now he was breaking up with you. Over something tiny. And yes, you guessed it correctly: IT WAS OVER HIS CLEANLINESS. "There's no way I would choose someone who doesn't understand me to be my partner. My friends were right, it was a mistake going out with you." 

You looked down at his harsh words and tone. Levi can be a little bit of a neat freak. And you obviously didn't pertain to this very well, but you knew that if you said something negative about it you would probably be done for. And this is exactly what happened. 

"Okay." You said lowly as you let out a quiet sniffle. "I get it now. I'll accept your break-up. Since apparently you and I butt heads over you being a fucking neat freak. Goodbye Levi. I'll turn in my resignation letter in the evening. So you and your friends can be happy without me." You shake your head before turning to walk away from him and out of the hallway, making a left. You kind of ignored some people calling out to you, even Levi and his friends insulting you behind your back. You were at the point where you pretty much were done with everything. The war with the Titans was still raging on, who the hell knew where some of the others went regardless of their life status, and Mikasa and Armin were doing other things right at the moment. 

It was also ironic how Levi happened to be your only friend in the Survey Corps, but now that your relationship with him deteriorated, you were kind of friendless. Not that it mattered much, as you weren't supposed to make friends. Only enemies in this godforsaken world. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The next morning, you woke up rather early. Little bit odd but you had to at least do something to help get over the heartbreak you just endured. Since you were mostly a loner in the Corps and didn't really have anyone to turn to, it made sense for you to train on your own. Levi would be off with his friends, and the rest would pair off into their own groups. At first you thought that maybe you joined so that you would prove a point to your mother and father. About how much this meant to you and you'd never get into a relationship or make any friends. But damn were you wrong.

When you and Levi were dating, it was so very obvious that his friends didn't like you. Or there was something about you that threw them off. And because of this, you were convinced that the world pretty much hated you and wanted you gone. Almost as if you're a ghost and they don't care about what you say or think. 

After you were finished training, you went to your room and sat down disgracefully on your bed. You hadn't been in the same group or environment as Levi since the day he decided to break up with you. Most people either didn't acknowledge you or just said negative things behind your back, thinking you wouldn't take note of it. You shake your head in silence before you were about to start reading. It wasn't like you were totally friendless, however. As there was a knock on your door before you had intended to even open your book. You look up a bit before putting it in your drawer and going to the door before slightly opening it ajar. In front of you stood a man who was on the tall side, with dark brown hair tied into a bun and bright green eyes staring before you. 

"Mind if I come in?" He asked a bit suddenly, taking you aback as he waited for your answer. You knew this man. He just sounded so familiar. But then you realize quickly who you were talking to.
