So I wanted to try out an snk fic. It's Ereri of course and a Reincarnation AU so hah... ;~; This was going to be a one shot but I decided to write an actual story with chapters. I'm writing this in both Levi and Eren's PoV. I hope I don't ruin them... Welp in any case, I can always put OOC warnings in occasions lol

Oh and also, I'm writing smut only occasions that accompany this fic on my other account in case you would like to read them. They're not necessary to the storyline just... well just written to satisfy my yaoi fangirling lol

HERE GOES NOTHING!

DISCLAIMER: Shingeki No Kyojin belongs to Hajime Isayama, that little cutie I'm supposed to hate. The story's mine though cx

More A/N at the end.

My previous life was a horrible, bloody one. One containing monsters called Titans that ate people. But they weren't the only monsters in existence... Humanity itself contained the most hideous of them all. And I... I dreamed to be free from the cage humanity had built. Sure, I made friends, rivals, and enemies. What I never imagined would happen, though, was to fall in love...

Eren

"Shit! I'm going to be late!" This just cannot happen. Not on my first day of work. "Fucking hell Armin!" I cursed as I struggled to put on my uniform. I ran out of my room, not even bothering to fix my hair (it wasn't going to make a difference anyways). I just grabbed the closest thing to food there was in the kitchen, got my things and left. I checked my phone to see if Armin had messaged me, called me, SOMETHING. Nothing. I cursed as I made my way to the car and threw the phone inside as soon as I opened it and turned on the car. "There is no way in hell I'm letting that little blond get away with this."

Gladly, luck was on my side. The shop wasn't too far from the apartment complex so without traffic I arrived in less than 10 minutes, making me barely on time. I saw Armin inside, hiding behind all the flowers. I entered and almost bumped into my manager. "Oh Ms. Ral, I'm sorry!" I mentally facepalmed. First day of work Eren. Please don't make yourself look more of a fool.

"Eren, I told you that you can call me Petra. We're friends here after all." She showed off her kind smile and looked at the mounted clock on the wall. "...And you're barely on time. Please tell me it was just a once in a while thing..." I nodded, giving a quick glare at Armin, who pretended not to notice though it was obvious he was now nervous for what he did, or didn't do, this morning.

I knew Petra in my previous life. Unfortunately, I witnessed her death, something I regret deeply even if it was a different lifetime ago. What I didn't know is if she also had those memories of the past. She simply showed me around the store, pointing out where everything was. And what exactly was my job? Make flower bouquets and give it an artistic touch or at least that's what Petra keeps telling me. I was studying Art after all and this was Armin's idea to help me improve a bit or to get some sort of inspiration for my class. Armin was my best friend, always has been and I was very grateful for it.

Sadly, today seemed to be a slow day. Petra told me I could draw if there wasn't much to do around. I cheered silently, earning a chuckle from the blonde next to me. "Liking this job already, Eren?" I nodded as I took out my sketchbook, looking around for something to draw. A single lily caught my eye. Its colors were vibrant and beautiful, blood orange from the middle and turning yellowish gold at the edges. The ones around it were similar but just not the same. I decided to try and replicate it.

I didn't notice as the hours passed by until Armin shook me gently to get my attention. I glared at him for even thinking of moving me but he shrugged as his response. "Its lunch already. Thought you'd be hungry by now." I huffed and closed my sketchbook. Cleaning any eraser residue from my clothes as I stood up, my stomach decided to growl making Armin laugh. "Yeah, you definitely are hungry. Come on, lets go. I know a place nearby." I was basically dragged outside the store until we finally reached a small cafe called Shina's. It seemed simple from the outside but somehow, the inside was completely different from what I expected. It had a certain homey feel, enough to remind me of my mother but also bring up memories from my past life. It was like I have been here before...

I stood there, frozen, as I examined every detail inside. There were different shades of brown and red, mixed with gold and green. The walls were decorated with plants and pictures of landscapes. The tables and seats were mahogany, painted over with a very dark brown. Overall, the place was cozy and nostalgic. It wasn't until I heard my name that I snapped out of my trance.

"Eren! Don't just stand there!" Again, I was dragged along by the blond in front of me and stood in line. "What do you want?" The menu was also very simple, enough to actually surprise me too. I sensed that we were getting closer to the register and I still couldn't make up my mind. "Eren?"

"Uh... whatever you think I'll like. I really don't know what to get..." I looked at Armin and then looked around. "I'll go get a table if that's ok with you."

"Of course it is dummy. Now go!" He pushed me lightly out of the line and I nearly stumbled into a few waiting customers. After mumbling a few 'Sorry' around I finally found an empty table for the both of us and I sat down, exhausted and overwhelmed. This cafe really does look familiar... I closed my eyes and rested my head on the table before me, seeing flashbacks, some vivid, some not so clear. But, in each one, I always saw one face, one person. The same person I loved and the same person I continue to love today. "Levi..."

"Eren." I jerked up to see a confused Armin with two cups of coffee and to small plates with sandwiches in his hands and arms. I hurriedly stood up a bit to help him with the cups and placed them down after I returned to my seat. When Armin sat down in front of me, he stared at me, analyzing me. "What's wrong?" He knew of my flashbacks and my memories. He knew of Levi and everyone else I knew. He himself had a few memories of the past but he had given up in trying to find those who were close to him and urged me to do the same. I turned him down though but I was glad he didn't just leave me.

"It's just... This place looks so familiar and I can't help but feel nostalgic." I took a sip from my coffee and brought the plate closer to me. "The flashbacks and memories won't stop right now and its a bit overwhelming..." I could still feel his eyes on me. "He's in all of them, Armin." I looked up again, "All of them." I felt tears on my cheeks now "Damn it... I'm sorry..." My heart ached. I wanted to find Levi. I wanted to be with him, to see him, to love him again. I wanted him here with me and Armin knew this all too well. I looked down and tried drying my tears with my sleeves. "I'm sorry..."

"It's ok Eren. It'll be ok. I have a feeling you will find him soon. I mean, you did find me after all." He smiled, even though it was a soft smile. He comforted me and I had to smile back.

"Thank you Armin. You really are the bestest friend I could ever have. I'm so glad I was able to find you again..." I finished drying my tears and lunch went by rather quickly, too quickly in my opinion. We were headed out when I spotted a very familiar person sitting somewhere across the cafe. That raven hair and those silvery blue eyes were unmistakeable. I had found him. I had found my love.

I had found Levi.

FINALLY FINISHED CHAPTER 1. GDI. Wow, I'm proud of myself heh. I hope you guys like this chapter!
