We had one week left before the big expedition.

We all stopped playing around, finally taking this seriously.

We all trained even harder with no complaints, not loosing focus
We knew this expedition was life threatening, we didn't know what was coming , so we prepared for the worst

Levi became even harder on us, but he always made it up to me as he invited me over his room, where we talked for hours , leaving his room when the sun came up, sneaking back to my room.

He had a soft side, one only I had seen.

I still hadn't gotten closer to telling him how I truly felt about him, I wanted to tell him so desperately

That I love him.

"I'm so hungry" Sasha said as she sat down , immediately eating every single thing on her plate

We all digged into the food, leaving no crumb behind

As training became more intense, we were even hungrier.

"Eren do you want my bread?" Mikasa asked Eren

She knew he was extremely hungry , so she took advantage of it.

"No thanks, you'll need it Mikasa" He said as he pushed the bread away from him

She looked down as she was disappointed he declined her offer.

"I'll take it!" Sasha leaned to Mikasa trying to take the bread

Mikasa death glared her, one more second and Mikasa probably would've killed her.

Sasha quickly caught on

"On second thought nevermind"she nervously backed away from the Ackerman.


"I'm so nervous...the expedition is in one week"

Armin let his thoughts eat him away, he wasn't hungry

(Making Sasha steal his plate)

"Cheer up Armin, you'll do great" I assured him

"You will too Arai" He tackled me in a hug

As he hugged me he looked at my arm, more importantly, my wrist.


"Arai! where's your friendship bracelet?!" Armin noticed as he pulled away from the hug, even I didn't notice until now.

I pull my sleeve up, hoping it had just gotten tangled up with my clothes.

"Oh fuck, I didn't realize till now I'm not wearing it"

I began to look around in my pockets, on the floor, on the table, unable to find it
It could be anywhere for all I know.

I felt terrible, everyone still had theirs, I didn't even notice I had lost it.

"Maybe it's in my room" I suggested

I doubt it , to be real, I probably wouldn't find it

"I'm sorry Jean, I know how hard you worked on it, I'll find it I promise!" I told him

he patted my head as I frantically looked for the bracelet

"Relax Arai, it okay, we don't need a braclet to show our friendship" He softly smiled

"Since when we're you all friendly" Connie smirked as he nudged Jeans shoulder

"Shut up" Jean rolled his eyes, taking a bite of his bread.
