The One that Got Away • Zeke Jaeger X Reader

Chapter 3

Our training is already finished so we need to go home.

"Hey Marcel, do you know who that guy is?" I asked Marcel slightly pointing the tall blonde guy.

"Oh that, he's Zeke, he's so much older than us, he became a warrior candidate for many years and I think next year will be his turn to inherit a titan powers." Marcel said.

"Oh, is that so." I just replied, I'm curious of how old is he.

"Why did you ask?" Marcel ask.

"Nothing I'm just curious." I answered, I didn't tell him that Zeke was staring at me.

"Do you want to come with us to go home?" Marcel asked.

"Yeah, cause I think I already forgot the way to go to my house." I scratched the back of my head.

"It's fine, you can come with us everyday to go here and go home." He suggested.

"Really? that'd be nice!" I answered him and he just laugh.

We were walking home with Porco and Reiner. Reiner's home is near to Marcel and Porco's.

"How old is Zeke?" I suddenly ask them.

"He's already 16 years old." Marcel and Reiner answered me.

"Oh, okay." I answered, I hope they won't suspect me that I'm curious about Zeke.

"Do you have interest with him?" Porco asked and Marcel and Reiner laugh at him.

"No no no, it's not like that." I defend myself because they're teasing me.

"And also, Zeke is 5 years older than me." I sounded defensive but it's fine.

"Really? you're already 11? so that means you're 3 years older than us." Marcel said.

"Really? you guys are just 8 years old?" I asked them.

"Yeah, Reiner and I are 8 years old, and Porco is 7 years old." Marcel explained their age.

"Oh guys, my house is just there." I pointed out my house. "You guys should get going now, it's getting dark, take care!" I waved at them and smiled cutely.

"Alright goodbye!" They waved back too and smiled and they go to their house.

As I get inside I changed my clothes and cook food to eat.

There's still a plenty food at the refrigerator so I don't need to go to the market yet.

I'm so happy because I already made friends which are Marcel, Porco, and Reiner. They were so nice. And I hope I will make more friends at my training.

After I ate, I took a bath and go to bed.

Weeks pass by, I always come with Marcel, Porco, and Reiner to go to warrior unit and I also come with them to go home.

"Warrior candidates we have an announcement!" The soldier caught all of out attention.

"We all know that the Tybur Family is the holder of the Warhammer Titan." The soldier said. "Yesterday, we talked to the head of their family, which is Willy Tybur, they said that the power of the Warhammer Titan can be divided, so two people can have the power of the Warhammer Titan, so we convinced them to give the half of the Warhammer Titan to the Warrior Unit to be inherit by the next chosen warrior." The soldier said, he's glancing at me while he's talking.
