A/N:BONJOUR~ This is Amarante, back with another story. This time it is not a one-shot. for I am the total opposite of Levi (I'm a hanji).. I found it kinda hard to put him good in character so he might be really OOC (Out Of Character). Furthermore do I like to hear your opinion on the story, It's at your own risk to flame, cause I have the habit to do it back.

Now…..

LET THE STORY BEGIN

The Book Hunter

The town of RoseSina-Maria, named after the three saints who created the once so great walls which defended the city against mother nature, was quiet. But that was not weird at all since it was very early in the morning. The sun shone just above the horizon. Its rays licking the earth and slowly waking up the little town.

Levi, the writer of many books that inspired young and old, was one of the few people who was up and moving on this lazy Wednesday morning. The man, short of stature, was hurrying towards an odd building that stood out of all the others. The window frames dark blue instead of red and the door slightly bigger than the ones at the neighbors home. Also there was a gate that surrounded the poorly maintained garden.

Trying to ignore the bad state the garden was in Levi made his way to the door after noting that the gate needed to be oiled. He knocked on the window, because the lights were on, which meant that whomever lived there either forgot to turn of their lights before going up stairs or there was someone down stairs, awake or not. Levi heard something fall on the ground with a loud tud, and Levi knocked on the window again. There was a moment of silence before the shine through curtains opened slightly, so the one inside could look who or what was disturbing their peaceful morning. Spotting Levi, impatiently waiting on the doorstep with a big scowl on his face, the person behind the curtain moved the curtain aside and opened the window so they could speak to him.

"Good morning sunshine, may I ask why I have the pleasure to talk to you at 5:30 in the morning?" they spoke to the raven haired man on their doorstep. Levi rolled his eyes at the nickname and went straight to business. "Hanji" he said "I have to go to run some errands for Erwin, useless fuck.. that man of yours, and will be gone for 2 or 3 days". His deep voice drowned out the chirping of the birds Hanji could hear in the distance. "great story, Levi" Hanji said quite uninterested, "but what has that to do with you disturbing me so early in the morning? I mean you could have left a note." She rubbed her eyes and yawned indicating how tired she was. Levi sighed "I wanted to, really, but Petra is still sick so she can't watch the store for me..". At this Hanji perked up "wait, wait, wait, are you trying to say that….." she questioned, her voice draping with excitement for she already knew the answer. "Yes Hanji," Levi spoke "you are in charge till I come back.". Hanji squealed, jumped and nearly hugged Levi out of happiness. "you won't regret it, sir" Hanji spoke to her friend and boss. " I already do Hanji.." Levi said rubbing his temples, "I already do".

After Levi had left, Hanji was to excited to fall back into sleep. Not that she wanted to anyway. Levi rarely left the store, and if he did he'd always put Petra in charge, so this was an opportunity and she wouldn't want to miss a second. She got dressed, ate something and went to the store. The store was a few blocks away and since the weather was nice and she was early for a change, she decided that she'd walk to the store this time. So she grabbed her, phone, coat, and keys and left the house.

The town slowly started to get to life, people were waking up, getting ready for school or already going to work. The bakery Hanji passed smelled really good, as always. And if it wasn't such a big day full of RESPONSIBILITIES she'd stop by to say hello. When Hanji reached the store just 5 minutes had passed, she'd walked faster then normal. She kind of regretted not buying anything at the bakery, but there is no turning back now. She grabbed the keys out of her coat pocket and opened the door.

Once inside Hanji turned on the lights and was greeted by tons of books, neatly placed on the many shelves in the bookstore. It was quite a big store with lots of costumers, for it was the only bookstore in town. The building was three stages high, including ground floor. There were study cabins upstairs, on the 1st and 2nd floor, in which the students of the towns high and primary school came to study. There where lots of chairs next to, or in front of the bookshelves. These where often used for reaching the upper shelf.

Hanji hung up her coat on the wooden coat rack next to the register. The whole store gave an old fashioned vibe, except for the fancy computers standing in the middle of the room, which could only be used for checking if the book they wanted was available.

Hanji walked to the door and turned the sign to "open" and went behind the register. On the other side of the bar the register was on, there was a computer. Which Hanji used to check mail and play games on lazy days. She opened her mail which said that there were a few new books where going to be delivered that day, but she didn't notice that message for she was distracted by a mail send by one ErenTheGreenEyedTitan . Interested Hanji opened the mail and was greeted by a neatly written application letter.

To whomever it may concern;

I just moved to this country and was looking for a job. Then yesterday I read in the news paper about the job opening at your store "The Book Hunter", and I thought "This is the perfect job for me".

The reason why I think that, is because I love books. No matter what genre. Reading is my favorite pastime you see, so I know a lot about the different types of books by first hand experiences. I am an organized and neat person, so cleaning up after work or putting the books back in their original place, shouldn't be a problem. And I am a social person, at least that is what people told me when I worked behind the register in a bookstore back in Germany. I started working there when I was 19 and have worked there ever since, for the past 3 years. It was an amazing experience. Call me nostalgic, but I wanted to work in a similar place as I did before. And now fate gave me an opportunity.

Until further notice

Sincerely,

Eren Yeager

Hanji didn't know Levi had placed an ad in the newspaper. A mischievous smile appeared on Hanji's face as she just knew how to get Levi's nerves.

so she answered the mail.
