"W-What? An excursion? This soon?" Petra turned to her newfound friend that towered over her, and looked considerably older for his age, while the others were dispersing and going back to their business and so was Petra and her friend.

"Unfortunately yeah, you heard the commander," he replied.

"But we've only been here for a couple of weeks,"

"Crime never rests, Petra," he grinned at her. "And so does justice!"

"You're so corny, Oulo, did you know that?" she glared at him.

"Yeah, yeah," he replied, waving his hand in front of her. "You say that every chance that you get."

"Because you say corny things every chance that you get!"

"Alright you lovebirds, let's head inside already." A tall blonde man who had his hair tied into a folded ponytail stretched his head between Petra and Olou with a mocking grin on his face and once he saw their irked faces and blushing cheeks he quickly pulled back and walked away with his hands in his pockets while grinning in success.

"Ack! Eld, no way!" Petra yelped and left Olou to follow behind Eld.

"H-hey why did you have to say that and run away so fast?" Olou scratched his head then dragged his feet to follow them. She walked next to Petra and told her,

"I have feelings too you know!" Petra stuck out her tongue and walked ahead alongside Eld instead.

"You'd rather walk with Ponytail?" Olou pointed out, "I suppose other than Corporal Levi you like him too."

"Well I can't say I'm surprised." Eld smiled.

"Ugh," she groaned while quickening her pace then turned her head back to Eld and Olou and added, "Why did I befriend you guys?"

Eld and Oluo were exchanging smirks when they took notice of where Petra was walking,

"O-Oi Petra," Eld called out. "Watch where you're—"

"Ah!" something hard poked her forehead and when it felt quite sting on her forehead when she rubbed it. "You stupid— C-Corporal Levi?" she stood there in shock, after two weeks in the Survey Corps this was the first time she had seen him face to face.

"Any problem here?" Levi asked, looking Petra in the eye. He was holding a broom in his hands, which happened to be what hit her forehead, and was in his cleaning outfit.

"N-No, nothing." Petra replied. "D-did you want anything, Corporal?"

He glared at her, with his eyes piercing through which made her feel uncomfortable but knew that that's just how he is when talking to other people, he'd observe them straight in the eye and think on things, she's seen it for the past few days.

"No, carry on what you were doing," he replied and walked past her. Eld and Olou looked at Levi as he walked by, eyes focused where he was going and not even batting an eyelid. Once he was at the distance, Eld spoke up to break the silence,

"You know, for a small guy, he certainly brings about bad aura with him."

"Rude too," Oluo added. "Did you see that Petra, he didn't even apologize!"

"Hey! That's no way to talk to the Corporal." Petra pointed a finger at Eld and Oluo as if she was threatening them. "Besides, I was the one who wasn't looking at where I was going."

"Tch. Your concern doesn't count; you have a crush on Corporal Levi." Oluo remarked.

"That's not true!" Petra defended. "Now if you'll excuse me!" she didn't linger for a reply and turned her heel and went on ahead.

"What a hot head," Eld remarked. "I don't know what you see in her, man," then he tapped Oluo on the shoulder and walked off to follow Petra to the base.

"H-hey, I don't know what you're talking about!"
