So ya, this is happening. As you know I don't own any of the characters and I don't really own the plot either, do I? Wow, remind me why I'm doing this again? Oh , I should mention that I haven't nor do I have plans to read Fifty Shades of Gray. I'm just following the plot line with certain lines from the book. Okay? Okay. (pun unintended...maybe) Let's do this. Are you excited? I am.
'Why did I have to do this for Armin? I'm sure he knows people that would kill for this. Maybe that's why? Whatever.' I was drawn out of my thoughts by the blond woman behind the desk.
"Can I help you?" She spoke in monotone like she had been repeating the line her whole life. Maybe she had, you never know.
"Um, yes, I have an interview with Mr. Ackerman at 1:30." It was only 1:27 now. At least I wasn't late. I wouldn't put it past myself.
She typed something into the computer. "Yes. You must be Mr. Jeager, filling in for Mr. Arlert." I started to nod but she wasn't paying attention. "You can go up now, top floor." She push a keycard over the desk.
"Thank you." I grabbed the keycard and slowly walked over to the elevator. It opened as soon as I pushed the button. I scanned the card as I walked in and pushed right button.
'I wonder what he's like. Armin told me young and, no matter what, don't say a thing about his height.' The elevator dinged. 'I guess I'll find out soon'
There was another desk in front of elevator. I weakly walked up to it. "Um, I-"
"Mr. Ackerman will see you now." The blond woman cut me off. 'Where do they find so many blonds to work here?' She gestured to the right where there was a short hallway that led to large doors. "Just go in. He's expecting you."
"Thanks." I walked down the hallway and up to the doors. 'Don't fuck this up. Don't fuck this up. You can manage this, hopefully.'
I pushed one of the doors open, well almost. I started to but tripped over thin air are went crashing into the office. I braced for the crash against the floor but it never came. I hesitantly opened my eyes to see I was being braced by man shorter than me.
He was surprisingly handsome for what I had heard of him. His black hair styled in an undercut clashed pleasantly with his pale skin. Where his eyes were like a stony medium. They were cold, calculating, and fierce.
I stumbled to get back on my own two feet. "I-I'm so sorry! I'm j-just a c-clutz." I stuttered as I regained my balance. 'Great first impression'
"No no, are you okay?" He had a surprisingly deep voice.
"U-um, yeah, I'm fine." I desperately clutched my bag closer to myself.
There was a moment of uncomfortable silence. "So, shall we?" Mr. Ackerman walked over to the desk in the room. "Please, take a seat Mr. Jeager." He gestured to the seat.
"Please, just Eren would be fine." He simply nodded. "So Mr. Ackerman,-"
"Levi."
"Sorry, what?" I looked up from the notes Armin gave me.
"It's only fair. I call you Eren if you call me Levi." his face remained emotionless.
I looked back down at the notes to hide the small smile forming. "Okay, Levi, this it just a simple interview for the newspaper, it shouldn't take too long. So, to what do you owe your success?"
He starting talking as he walked around the desk to look out the glass window. Well, sort of window, the whole wall was a window. "I've always good at people. I have a natural instinct for what makes people tick."
I recorded his answer. "So you're a control freak?" 'Oh come on, ever living fuck. I did not mean to say that out loud.'
He turned to face me. "I exercise control in all things."
"It must be really boring." He smirked.
"Well I'm patient and persistent." He just looked at me for a moment before I broke eye contact to look down.
"Anyway, last question, do you have any interest outside of work?" He smirked again and cocked his head ever so slightly.
"What about you? I'd like to know more about you." Well this inter view went in a totally different direction than I thought it would.
"There's not really much to know about me. Just look at me." I gave a hesitant chuckle and looked back down.
He went silent. I slowly looked up until my green eyes met his gray ones. "I am." I felt my cheeks heat up a bit as I bit my lip. "But you said that was the last question?" It was more of a question than a statement.
"U-um yeah, that was the last formal one." Armin had scribbled to ask if he was gay under the typed questions.
"Are there any informal ones?" He seemed to be toying with me.
"One." 'Good Lord! How many time can a person medically smirk in one day?"
"Well?"
"Oh! Yeah. U-um, are you strait?"
"No, but that stays between us." I nodded. "Well I wouldn't want to keep you too long. We already went a little longer than planned." He gestured towards the door.
"Right." I stood and slipped my messenger bag over my shoulder. As I walked I shove the pen and pad into the bag.
I thought Levi would just walk me to the door but he opened the door for me. "Wouldn't want you tripping again, now would we?" I looked down and rolled my eyes.
Levi followed me out the door and to the elevator. He pressed the button for the elevator and waited for me to step in. After I had turned around to face him and the doors had just started to close and separate us he smiled and spoke. "Eren." This was his way of say bye.
I lightly smiled at him. "Levi" The elevator doors closed and I started going down.
That seemed to last, like 5 minutes.
Btw I'm like using a lot of the stuff in these videos.
