Hello, readers! Welcome to my first Eren Yeager fanfiction! I've had this idea in my head for a while now, and I decided to write it. I know there's quite a good amount of Eren fanfictions out there, but I wanted to write one anyway.

✧ THIS IS NOT AN X READER! I do not write x readers for any fandoms. If you're looking for an x reader, then this book isn't for you.

✧ Most of the scenes involving Mikasa and Eren will be replaced with Josiah. Mikasa will still be a character, she just won't be in love with Eren and will only protect him like a sibling.

✧ ENGLISH IS NOT MY NATIVE LANGUAGE! You will be seeing grammar errors and spelling mistakes. Please feel free to point out my mistakes as I don't have an editor to double proof read my work, as long as you're nice about it!

✧ I DO NOT own Attack on Titan. The characters belong to Hajime Isayama. However, I do own Josiah Verlice and his plot. Plagiarism is a crime. DO NOT republish or claim my work as your own.

Here's the character information!

RELATIONSHIPS:
• Clayton Brandon - Clayton was Josiah's childhood best friend. The two of them would often butt heads with one another. However, upon witnessing Clayton get eaten by a Titan during the Fall of Shiganshina, he regrets all of the fights and disagreements that they had.

• Soren Adams - Soren was another one of Josiah's childhood best friends. Soren was often the "peacemaker" between Clayton and Josiah, constantly stopping their arguments and calming them down. After he got crushed to death by the Armored Titan, Josiah wishes that he was strong enough to protect him.

• Eren Yeager - During their first encounter, Josiah always thought of Eren as someone who was way over his head. But eventually, he understood from his point of view and they eventually became close friends due to the fact that they both lost so much during the Fall of Shiganshina. They both realize that they had feelings for one another and began dating. However, during the attack on Marley, Josiah wonders if Eren was the same kid that he met and had fallen in love with from his cadet days. After getting into a fight with him, he realized that Eren had changed drastically.

• Mikasa Ackerman - Josiah and Mikasa didn't really talk much throughout their cadet days and their time in the Survey Corps due to Josiah having romantic feelings for Eren, but once Josiah and Eren started dating, Mikasa opens up to Josiah more and becomes close friends with him.

• Armin Arlert - Josiah and Armin easily became friends due to the fact that Armin reminded Josiah of his childhood friend, Soren, who had also dreamed of going outside of the walls. When he finds out that Armin had been burned to a crisp by Bertholdt, he had almost punched Levi due to the fact that Levi wanted to give the serum to Erwin.

QUOTES:
❝ Arrogance will get you killed. Remember that, Yeager. ❞
(To Eren, Season 1).

❝ What did Soren and Clayton do to get killed like that, huh? Tell me, Reiner, Bertholdt, you bastards! ❞
(To Reiner & Bertholdt, Season 2).

❝ What happened to just wanting to purge the Titans? You killed innocent people and even children, Eren. Doing that just makes you all the villain just like Reiner and Bertholdt when they attacked Shiganshina all those years ago. Two wrongs don't make a right. ❞
(To Eren, Season 4).

❝ I just— I want the Eren I fell in love with back. I lost everything. My childhood friends, my mother, and my father. I don't need to loose someone who I've given everything to as well! Tell me, Eren! How the hell is that fair to me?! ❞
(To Eren, Season 4).

❝ Armin told all of you that I had a plan, didn't he? Do you really think I would leave my friends hanging? That really hurts, Connie. I used my current status with Eren to get inside information. Being engaged to someone who they look to as a God helps a lot. ❞
(To Connie, Season 4).

❝ If you didn't send Reiner, Bertholdt, and Annie to breach the wall, we wouldn't be in this situation! This is the consequences of your own actions! ❞
(To Magath, Season 4).

❝ This is farewell, Eren. Until we meet again. ❞
(To himself before killing Eren, Season 4).

There's the character information! Wow, this is actually my second OC who I'm not killing off. I'm proud of myself. Chapter One should be out soon!

Also, Josiah's dad is not dead. He is being introduced in season three when Kenny shows up, but he dies the same time Kenny does.

Enjoy the book!
