6K!! You guys are amazing! Thank you for reading and voting! An update for you before school. Sorry if there are any mistakes because I haven't really checked it.. Anyway let's get started.
After a while of sitting awkwardly alone in the carriage it arrived at a stand still. The coachman jumped from his horse and walked over to the carriage door.
He opened the door revealing who was stood outside. You walked from the carriage and thanked the man.
Looking up you saw, Erwin, Hanji and a couple other soldiers stood in a line. "Hello ____, you look lovely as always" Erwin greeted you taking your hand in his and kissing it gently.
Hanji smiled, that gleam in her eyes. "____, would you like us to take your cloak?" One of the other soldiers said walking up behind you. "Yes please" you replied surprised by how you were being treated.
The young soldier pulled the cloak from you and walked away. "Have fun ____!" Hanji shouted walking back into the building the ball was taking place in.
You were being treated like royalty, nothing like what you expected. Was it just because your date was the Commander? Who knows, you may as well make the most of it.
You smiled as the other soldier went his separate way. Erwin held out his arm, gesturing you to take it. You did as he ordered and wrapped your arm around his.
Walking into the building you saw everyone having fun and dancing to music played by a live string quartet.
The music was lovely, it had a quite a fast tempo. Looking around the hall you saw those familiar faces from the 104th.
You looked over at them, they were all smiling and laughing. You looked up at Erwin, desperate to go over and talk to them.
"I can see the look your giving me, yes you can go and talk to them" Erwin said releasing your arm from his. "Thank you, Sir!" You said running over to your friends. "It's Erwin" you heard him say in the distance.
"____?!" Armin questioned as you ran over to them. "Hey guys!" You panted, out of breathe. "w-what are you doing here?" Armin asked.
He was dressed in a black suit with a blue tie. He looked so smart.
"Well, I don't have any family to go to so.." You trailed off as you noticed him looking at you oddly.
"What is it?" You asked looking at everyone else. "y-you look, lovely" Armin stuttered as his face turned a dark red.
"Thank you.." You replied obviously blushing. "Nice to see you ____" Mikasa spoke up and looked over at Sasha, who was at the buffet stuffing her face.
Mikasa had a long black dress on but she still had her red scarf hanging across her shoulders.
"This food is fantastic!" Sasha muffled as she pushed more food into her mouth.
You smiled and looked back at your friends. Eren, Levi and the rest of the squad haven't arrived yet so now would be the best time to start to, get friendly.. You thought as you rolled your eyes.
You really didn't want to do this but you had to, for Hanji. I mean she hasn't really done you any favours for you so.. "____!" Hanji called pulling you back into reality.
You turned around to face her. She looked over at Erwin who was eyeing you and then back at you and to top it all she then winked.
"Nows the time" she whispered walking past you. You looked down and took in a deep breath. I have to do this.
You started to walk over to Erwin. His smile grew as you came closer. A lot of soldiers were already starting to get drunk.
"E-Erwin, Sir.." You awkwardly stuttered as you stood in front of him. "Yes, ____?" He replied giving you a slight smile.
