"What's the problem?" I leaned out of the carriage that was going to take me to the Ackerman Estate before I reunited with my beloved body.

"It seems like a carriage up ahead is stuck in the mud," a guard explained, "we'll have to wait for them to clear out of the way."

is that so-

"Is everyone alright?" I frowned, staring out at the gray skies, "it looks like it's going to rain soon."

maybe i should just-

"One of the wheels seems to have broken but other than that it appears to be fine."

hmmm

"What do you think Farlan?" I glanced over at the frowning aide.

i personally have no issue with inviting someone into levi's carriage- i mean if it's a woman we could even start some scandalous rumors

"We should get to the Ackerman Estate as quickly as possible, help them out however you want," he shrugged.

well since you gave permission <333

"Do you have any idea who it is?" I asked the guard.

"It seems to be a noble lady, it's difficult to make anything out other than that."

OK THEN !!

"Farlan, I was going to see if they wanted a lift in the luggage carriage but I can't let a noble lady ride in a place like that so-"

"I'll go," he sighed loudly, "should I let the Lady and her staff know?"

"Yes please!"

from the looks of it she's unaccompanied aside from a guard and a maid

"Have a few members of our guard stay behind and help them fix their carriage, I'll bring her to the estate with me," I issued out a quick order, before shutting the curtains to the carriage.

OK QUICK Y/N-

TURN THE CHARM WAY UP

IM GOING TO FLIRT WITH THIS WOMAN

"Levi I've brought her," Farlan knocked on the door, his voice sounded tired.

i feel bad

"Let her in, I'm sorry about this Farlan."

"It's no problem," he chuckled, "I'd actually rather be in the luggage carriage."

huh? what does that mean?

"What do yo-" the door swung open revealing a young woman in a long green gown, her face obscured by a parasol.

wait a minute-

"Wow-" I couldn't help but let a gasp of adoration escape me before I composed myself and helped her inside.

she looks familiar-

"You're gorgeous," I kissed her hand, as she sat down, before taking my seat across from her.

where do i recognize her from-

wow only a few days as levi and i've already forgotten the faces of people i had memorized

a side effect of body swapping maybe?

"Drop the act Y/N."

"Excuse me?" My eyes shot up.

OH MY GOD Y/N

Parasol down from her face it all clicked.

OH MY GOD

"Levi-"

"Let go," he slapped my hand away, scowling at me.

at least my compliments weren't a lie

"Get out-" I matched his glare, my embarrassment wearing off quickly as soon as I remembered our last conversation.

since when did i get embarrassed about what he thinks about me?

"The carriage has already started moving," he pointed out, getting comfortable.

"I'll stop it then."

"It's raining."

"So what? Stand outside in the rain until someone picks you up."

"My reputation."

"You must really be desperate if you think that's going to work on me."

leave me alone

"You must really not care about the clothes you spent my money on," Levi scoffed, turning away from me.

you-

he's wearing it?

why?

The green dress looked just as good as I thought it would, even in the dim light of the carriage the details on it stood out and drew your eye to the person wearing it.

that should be me

"Only because of the dress," I avoided making eye contact with him. "It's easier like this anyway, I didn't want you running around my house unattended."

at least this way he won't be alone in my house

"You're so charitable," Levi muttered dryly, rolling his eyes.

i really am

"More than you, that's for sure."

"Fuck you."

SELFCEST ????

"Wouldn't you want to," I rolled my eyes back at him.

you know it's nice to see a familiar face

"How are you going to apologize?" Levi asked, still scowling.

what do i have to apologize for?

"Excuse me?" I gawked at him.

"For causing a scene in the dress store, I've been busy cleaning up the mess you made."

oh

"Truthfully I don't see the issue with it, we need to start rumors like that so we have an excuse to be seen together," I shrugged.

you're being dramatic levi

"Everyone has been on my ass about it, when are you going to apologize?"

are you serious?

"You-"

"I'm serious."

"What have they been saying?" I sighed, rubbing my temple. "I haven't heard anything."

the luxury of being levi

"Rumors that my seduction has finally paid off- bullshit- when have you ever attempted to seduce me? You must've had someone spread those rumors after you left." He paused, "listen I know that you were angry with me but I really thought that you wouldn't be so stupid as to spread rumors that hurt you too."

im sorry what?

"Are you stupid?" I couldn't help but laugh at the expression that Levi was making.

"So you did-"

"No I didn't-" I burst into another fit of laughter. "You must be joking."

His expression relayed everything I needed to know.

he isn't
