Summary: Set two months after the death of his squad, Levi begins to accept everything, including Petra's. Unfortunately, that is the period of time when Petra's ghost comes to visit. Will Levi be able to see her once again? And will she be able to say her goodbye properly? With a help of a certain person, they might. (Levi/Petra ship [BEST OTP EVER!] and an existence of an OC)

A/N: So as of today, I'm officially a fan of Rivetra for 2 months now. And you see, I've been drawing, sketching and doodling a lot of Rivetra scenes on any paper that my hands can reach (including my Sociology notes, which owe me a big time to erase everything off). I've also read/translate a bunch of doujinshi (fan-made comic) and fanfictions, and I've made two doujinshis so far, thus I feel like I should write a Rivetra fanfic as well. So I hope you guys have fun reading while riding the train of feels.

P.S: I haven't written for a while so hopefully my writing skills do not deteriorate that much.

Disclaimer: Shingeki no Kyojin doesn't belong to me. The story and characters belong to Isayama Hajime-sensei. If they were mine, Rivetra would be the top OTP and lots of characters wouldn't have died.


In a dark room that is only lit by a single candle on the wooden table, Humanity's Strongest, Corporal Levi sits there with an empty coffee cup and a pile of papers that he needs to sign.

Tch. Why does that Shitty Glasses have to do her experiments now and sent me all this crap? He thinks, while flexing his shoulders and trying to loosen some of the tightened muscles, and cause some cracking sounds.

He then proceeds to reach his cup and touches his lips against the rim. He's disappointed when he realizes that his coffee is no longer there. He taps the bottom part against the table, like a customer in a restaurant who tries to call for the waiter. When nothing happens, he lets out a call,

"P-" but instantly stops.

Realization strikes him hard when he looks up at the empty seats of the dining room. He then finally understands why it's so quiet. Too quiet.

That's right. Everyone's dead, he sadly reminds himself, yet his usual bored face expression does not change at all, as if the news doesn't concern him even a bit.

But that's not true. He cared for his squad, a lot. More than most people he knew including Erwin and Hanji. They were his comrades, his family. He enjoyed it when Erd and Gunter always managed to do pranks against each other or sometimes on Petra, but they usually liked it more to tease her about something that he doesn't know until now. Although usually annoyed, but he is proud that Auruo always attempted to mimic his style, whether it was his hair style or attitude, because he knew that Auruo had high admiration on him. But whom he missed the most is the only female member of his squad, Petra Ral.

Just like her name, she was strong and almost unbreakable. Almost. Although she was fierce as a soldier during trainings or expeditions, she had a sweet, gentle and loveable personality. She was also acting like the mother figure of the whole squad, who did most of the chores and was the second best when it comes to cleaning, next to Levi who is always on the top place. Not only that, she also loved to serve snacks with tea or coffee to everyone, him in particular. For Levi, coffee is his energy drink, and she knew it very well to the point she knew when to serve him another cup. She even would often personally serve him in his office.

Among all of his squad members, he finds out that he favoured her more than the rest. He knew it was wrong. Probably it was because she was a woman, and he doesn't have that much female companion. Hanji is an exception because he always sees her as a mad scientist who is deeply interested in Titans, and not a pretty and captivating creature. He couldn't help but to grow fond of her warm smile, joyful laughter and her beautiful appearance. Her enchanting amber eyes he likes to gaze into that may be filled with a storm of anger when she held her blades, that golden hair of hers that would elegantly sway in the air when she flies with her 3D maneuver, her soft expressions that would harden when she was ready to spill the blood of a Titan, her graceful movements when she swung her blades or when she twirled for a dance during one of the shitty parties where a bunch of useless nobles who waste a lot of money for fucking meaningless celebrations, and Petra was the only person he was willing to gaze at and talk to. Sometimes he would notice other men staring at her lustfully and he felt a rush of mixed feelings boiling inside him. Anger, possessive and jealousy.

Not long after that, he realized that he actually had fallen in love with her. Knowing that such relationship isn't allowed for a captain and his subordinate, he couldn't say or do anything to her. Yet, he couldn't restrain himself to pat her hair or caress her cheek softly, which would always cause deep shades of red to appear on her cheeks. That's enough for him to know that she had similar feelings for him. Still, he didn't say the words,

I love you, Petra.

But now, it's too late for him to express his feelings because she is now gone forever. He has to accept completely the idea that he is no longer in the company of anyone except Eren and Nura. And he has to live on while carrying their final wish: to exterminate all the Titans.

Until the day comes, wait for me.

He is deeply in thought that he doesn't even realize there's someone precious standing behind him.


A/N: Phew, well that felt good. It actually feels a lot better to write down all these Rivetra feels in my head and convey them into words. By the way, I am very sorry to other OTP shippers such as LeviHan, EreLevi, LeviErwin and LeviMika. I just can't, I repeat, cannot accept nor agree with your taste. I am completely against Levi OTP except Rivetra. Don't ask me why, probably I'm just crept out with the idea of a Titan-hater with a Titan-lover, Yaoi (I'm not a Yuri fan as well) and Mikasa is better off with Eren (or any Eren OTP, as long as it doesn't include Levi and Petra). So yeah, I'm basically quite picky when it comes to OTPs.

Important note here: I might need at least 5 encouraging reviews in order to continue the story. So here's my line: reviews make me smile!
