Hey guys ^^

Here I am again with a new story for you guys! :)

I am very sorry if there are any spelling mistakes or wrong sentences. English is not my first language.

I also apologize if there is any occ-ness.

( I do NOT own Attack On Titan or any of its characters! )

Authors Note: For this story, I have changed Sasha and Levi their ages a bit. Sasha is around 18/19 and Levi is around 22/23. You can choose whichever of the two you prefer :)

Now with all that out of the way we can start with the story~

Rated: T for now

~0~0~0~0~

Sasha was sitting on her horse, silently waiting with the other scouts in front of the gate for another expedition beyond the walls. Erwin was giving another one of his speeches like he usually would do before every start of an expedition. Sasha couldn't help but sigh out of boredom. She had heard it so many times she could repeat it in her sleep. She then glanced to her side to were Conny was sitting, and from the look on his face, she could clearly see that he felt the same as her.

She turned to look in front of her once again and noticed that the gate was now slowly opening. She couldn't help but sigh of relief. Finally! it was about frickin' time!. She clutched her horse's reins tightly, waiting to advance. Once the gate was fully open she heard Erwin scream "Advance!" at the top of his lungs before taking off towards the unknown. Soon the other scouts followed, including her. Trough the gate and into the unknown.

The ride went well and they managed to reach the forest of giant trees safely. So far they had no Titan encounters, That was a first. This mission was going to be the easiest one yet. Sasha couldn't help but smirk a little at this. If it kept going like this they would be back into the walls in no time and she could return to finish eating that meat she had stolen- But her thoughts were interrupted by a loud scream and loud stomping nearing them quickly. "Titans incoming!, It's an ambush!" someone yelled, But before Sasha could react something heavy came into contact with her and soon after everything went black.

~0~0~0~0~

There was darkness all around her, she couldn't see anything. Why was everything feeling heavy?. She tried to move but she couldn't. Where was she? What happened to her?. She was distracted, trying to figure out where she was and what happened until she heard something faint in the distance.

She wanted to speak and ask if someone was there but she couldn't. Then she heard it again but this time it sounded closer, more clear. "Oi brat, wake up". That voice sounded very familiar...She knew she heard it before. Then she heard it again even louder "Oi brat! Wake up!".

Then it hit her, it was captain Levi's voice, wasn't it?. But why would he be in my room trying to wake me up? weren't we on a mission beyond the walls?. And then it hit her. The Titan ambush, and something colliding with her, making her black out.

Sasha suddenly shot up, gasping for air, her eyes as round as plates. Levi sat in front of her, examining her carefully, he didn't seem badly injured besides from a few small scratches here and there.

Once she calmed down she felt something wet on her temple, she reached up to touch it and instantly flinched, pulling her hand back. That must have been where the heavy object collided with her. it hurts.

Then she turned to face captain Levi, giving him a questioning look "C..Captain...what happened?". He didn't say anything but took a small handkerchief from his pocket and gently pressed it against her wound, stopping the bleeding. "First things first. I'll take care off your injury and then we talk. Understood?". She nodded while trying her best not to blush. The captain had never been this nice and close to her before...something big must have happened while she was blacked out.

And it was then that she noticed it. They were all alone. No horses no bodies no other scouts, just them. Were where they? What happened to the others?. Oh, no...where they the only survivors?!.

Levi clearly noticed the panic in her eyes and sighed. He pulled out a small bandage and proceeded to carefully wrap it around her forehead, making sure that the handkerchief stayed in place. Once there where enough layers to hold it in place he bit the access fabric off with his teeth and tied the edges, securing the bandage in place. Then he put the leftover material back in his pocket in case they needed it later on.

Now that her wound was taken care of Sasha patiently waited for him to speak. He sighed once again before finally opening his mouth to speak and telling her what happened."We were ambushed. Titans came from all directions killing most of the soldiers instantly who were on the side of the formation. I got off my horse and I killed Titan after Titan, I didn't keep count. But then I spotted you, about to be eaten by a 7-meter class Titan. You seemed knocked out so rushed towards that Titan and killed it. Then I got you and took you here to a safe place. Once I put you down I headed back to help the others but they were all gone, and so were the horses. The only things left behind where bodies. I didn't spot Erwin, Hanji and any of your friends among them so I assume that they made it out safely. And then I headed back to you to check if you were still alive. And that leads us until now. You have been out cold for half an hour or so since then".

She looked down and bit her lip nervously, trying not to show that she was scared. "So...what do you suggest that we do now?". He frowned, knowing what they had to do. He knew the risks but they had no other choice. "We have to go back to the walls by foot. Only using our 3d maneuver gear in case of an emergency, We have to be careful with what we have left. It will be a pain in the ass but we have no choice but to sleep in caves and in trees. And we will have to hunt our food along the way. That is our only chance of making it back in one piece".

"I understand sir..." she said before looking up at him once again, trying not to seem scared. Levi frowned at this, clearly showing a sign of annoyance. "Just call me Levi. Rank doesn't really matter now does it?".

Sasha blinked, giving him somewhat of a confused look "W-What?". He sighed before standing up and brushing the access dirt off of his uniform. "You heard me. Now stand up, we will have to find some food and look for a place to sleep tonight". "A-Alright" and with that being said she stood up as well. awkwardly following Levi in the search for some food. She sighed.

'Ugh..why me? And why him out of all people?... This could have been kind of romantic if I was in this situation with someone else..'. She thought as she walked closely behind Levi, watching his green scouting cloak gently flow in the autumn breeze.

'Now that I think about it...I don't know much about the cap-I mean Levi at all. Hmm...This might not be so boring after all..'. She didn't know it, But her thoughts made her smirk lightly. And Unkowing to her Levi did notice this. 'Tch...why do I have to be stuck with this brat out of all people...great luck I have..'.

~0~0~0~0~

After a while of walking, Sasha finally spotted a small a cave in the distance. She ran towards it happily, a smile appearing on her face. "Look at this! Finally, a nice place to sleep!". He calmly approached the cave as well, carefully examining it before giving her a nod of approval. "It seems safe so it looks like this is going to be our first place to sleep. Now that we have taken care of that we will have to find some food".

She nodded, still smiling. "Indeed. and speaking of which I can hear streaming water in the distance. Looks like luck is on our side!" and with that being said she already went on her way. Leaving a small trail of smoke behind as she ran away. She was as excited as a kid in a candy store. He sighed out of frustration. 'Great...I hope for god's sake she doesn't mess anything up..' He thought before he followed her.

Once he arrived upon the scene he had to resist the urge to smirk in amusement. Sasha was standing bare feet in the lake, without her jacket and coat. Trying to catch fish in poor attempts. She was in the water with her hands, running after the swimming fish, trying to catch them.

While she was doing her thing he picked up a long twig, took out one of his swords and carefully began to sharpen the edge of the twig, making it into a spear. Once he was done he sheathed his sword, and took off his own cloak and jacket. he stood at the edge of the lake and waited for the time right time, once Sasha chased a fish into his direction he pierced the spear through it, catching it. Sasha watched carefully as he did so and couldn't help but smile.

"Wow, you got it in one hit!" she said happily as she carefully examined the pierced fish on the spear. He raised an eyebrow, giving her a questioning look. "You have never caught a fish before have you?".

She nodded, before nervously rubbing the back of her head, careful not to touch the bandage wrapped around her head "No I haven't". Now knowing that for sure he motioned for her to come towards him and she obliged. "Well, I am going to teach you how. Here grab the spear" he said as he handed her the spear.

Once she had it he moved so that he stood behind her. Then he gently but carefully put his hands over hers, showing her the right grip. Sasha couldn't help but blush because of this. She didn't understand how he could be so shamelessly close to her, helping her like this without blushing. When he felt like she got it right he stepped back and urged her to try and catch another fish "Come on brat we only need one more".

She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself. Once she felt like she was ready she approached the lake and stood on the edge, waiting for a fish to swim by. Once it did she didn't hesitate to lower the spear, piercing right through it. "Alright! I did it!" she said as she turned around, showing Levi the spear with the two fishes on it.

he nodded in approval. "Alright now it's time to head back, It's getting late and we still need to start a fire". She nodded in understanding before she proceeded to put her boots, jacket, and cloak back on like him.

~0~0~0~0~

Once they were back in the cave it had already gotten dark, The only thing lighting up and warming up the cave was the fire. Their recently caught fishes roasting nicely above it. She was sitting with her back against the wall, knees up to her chest. Watching the fire brought some comfort to her, but it honestly wasn't warm enough, she was still cold. But she couldn't be weak like this, Levi seemed to be perfectly fine so she should be too.

The longer she looked into the fire the more distracted she got. She thought that she could see her old home...the walls...her friends in the fire...how she missed them... But then she was brought back as she felt something warm plop down right beside her, and something warm was wrapped around her. She looked up, only to see Levi sitting right beside her, his cloak wrapped around the both of them.

She was confused "Captain, Why are you doing this? I am fine really". He frowned "First of all I told you to call me Levi didn't I?. And secondly you where clearly shivering, So it was only right of me to do so. And besides, You don't have to act tough in front of me, Most people would feel the same as you in this situation, There is no reason to feel ashamed".

She couldn't help but smile softly once he finished speaking. it seemed that the captain really has a nice side..how interesting.

A few minutes later once they had finished eating their fishes he turned to look at how Sasha was doing. And to his surprise she was already asleep, her head gently leaning on his shoulder. He couldn't help but smile slightly. She seemed so peaceful right now, It would be very rude to wake her up. Right now she could forget about this cruel world, if only for a moment. It would be rude to bring her right back into it...

"Sleep well Sasha," he said softly before he turned to look at the fire once more. His plan was to switch sleeping so that both of them could get some sleep while the other kept watch, but seeing her like this...he just couldn't do that her. She deserved a good nights sleep after all she had been through today.

To be continued...
