Hey everyone! So this is just a drabble but I may turn it into a series if anyone requests for it to become one. So, this one is modeled a little after my own personality. Enjoy it! Err, PS, she lives.
As per usual, I do not own Shingeki no Kyojin.
Petra hates surprises. It's strange, really, but completely understandable. As a soldier who saw Titans pop out of absolutely nowhere, she now despised surprises. The war is over, and has been for a little while, but she still freaks out when things jump out.
Levi, who knows this, always makes sure that she knows that he's there before wrapping his arms around her. He has to let her know a lot of things so that she won't be scared. Whenever he has to stay late for work, which he found shortly after the war ended, she will freak out, not knowing where he is and fearing the worst.
Yes, Levi knows that she hates surprises. And yet, he loves the stunned look on her face when he gives her this surprise. Kneeling down on one knee with a ring in his hand and her hand in his other, he thinks, This is the only surprise I'm going to pull on her.
But when she says yes and laughs and sobs at the same time, she thinks for a moment, I love surprises.
