Eren woke up to Levi slamming his hand on his alarm. "It's Saturday, can't you just skip it for one day and cuddle with me?" he grumbled while grabbing Levi's arm and pulling him back on the bed.

"I have to work, but I could sleep in." He bit his lip before snuggling next to Eren again. Eren kissed his forehead before letting sleep overwhelm him once again.

When Eren woke up again he instantly noticed the cold spot next to him. He sat up and looked around the room, until he saw something covered in blankets in the corner. "Levi?" he whispered cautiously.

Levi's head poked out of the blankets to look at the alpha, "Oh, h-hey, good morning." He sniffled, wiping his eyes roughly.

"What's wrong? Why're you crying?" he asked, slowly feeling anxiety build up inside him. The omega pulled a piece of paper out of the blankets for Eren to see.

"It was taped on the door this morning." Eren got up and took the paper from Levi.

Troops 1,3, and 5 report to the main office at 1600.

"I-I don't understand..." Eren muttered looking at Levi for an explanation.

Levi sucked in a huge breath before starting to explain. Eren could tell he was trying to calm himself. "The only time certain troops are requested at the main office is when they're getting their combat assignments. We're going to go fight the titans soon. They're forcing us, you into a suicide mission. They know you're not ready." He whimpered, he tightened the blanket around him so now the only thing able to be seen is the top part of his head. "And I'll be forced to work near him. I can't believe this is happening" He started to cry again.

Eren wrapped his arms around the crying man and started to rock him. "Levi calm down, I won't let him get near you. I'm going to protect you with my life. Even if you don't like it. As for your troop, we'll be fine. You've been training them really hard, they know what to do. All you have to do is work us a little harder and we'll be good to go.

"We've been training for a week and a half! That's not enough time to know how to fight, let alone know how to go into all-out war. You've only had a day of training…" he started to sob now. "You're going to die and it's going to be my fault."

Eren pulled Levi away from him so he's forced to look at Eren. "Nothing is going to happen. I'm not going to leave you, no matter what is happening out there. I refuse to leave you." Levi nodded and took in deep breathes. Eren pulled Levi against him and soothed him, hoping to calm him down.

When Levi calmed down fully, they decided to go get some food before Levi left to go to the meeting.

"Alright, troop 1 will be based upon the front of Wall Rose, try to kill off as many of them as possible before they bring down the wall. Troops 3 and 5 will be on Wall Maria, I know the last time we tried to take Wall Maria, it was a massacre. But I'm confident we can take it back. This will be an 8-month trip. We leave in 3 weeks, but don't get too comfy. We never know what to expect, we may have to leave sooner or later." Erwin dismissed them at that, though when they started to leave the room he yelled out "Say your good-byes and work your troops harder than ever before."

Levi had never trained a troop so hard. "If you want to live, you need to exceed my expectations." He yelled from the back of the group, he heard a moan come from almost everyone.

They stopped to stretch and he felt a rush of pride overwhelm him. Ever since they had found out they were going out into the field, they had started pushing their limits.

He walked over to where Mikasa and Annie Leonhart sat on the grass and smiled. "Good job Mikasa, you're my top soldier right now."

"Thanks…" she muttered viciously, completely avoiding looking at her.

He frowned slightly, "Are you still upset about everything that's happened?" trying to keep his distance

She squeaked, shocked by the question. "Do you expect me to be alright with everything?" She stood up and glared at him

"W-well no… but I assumed you'd have gotten over Eren moving out of your room…" He mumbled confused.

She shook her head and laughed hollowly, "Oh yeah, my brother abandoning me to go kiss our commander's ass." She hissed "Yeah, I'm completely peachy."

"I-I'm sorry I've upset you…" he muttered walking away from them slowly.

When they thought he was out of ear shot Mikasa hissed, "he fucking makes me sick." She hissed quietly.

Annie laughed "That's what happens when you have a faggot as a commander." Annie sighed. Levi felt tears start to well in his eyes. He started to take deep breathes and called for his troops to go to Hanji's office to practice using the 3D gear.

When he was sure everyone in his troop were gone he broke down crying. "I'm not fit enough to lead a troop." He whimpered to himself.

A voice behind him made him jump. "Well if you keep thinking that like that, you're right." Hanji chuckled

"H-Hanji…" he squeaked, he started to frantically look around to see of anyone else had heard what he had said, but the only one visible on the field was standing right in front of him. "Y-you scared me…" He stepped away from her starting to feel uncomfortable that she had heard him talking to himself.

She laid her hand on her hip and frowned. "If you keep thinking like you're inferior, you're going to end up being right. You didn't get to be commander of troop 3 because of your looks. You're an excellent soldier and bossy as hell, everyone respects you. I understand leading a troop to war for the first time is scary but you wouldn't have gotten picked if there wasn't a good reason." She smirked

"It's so soon though, we'd be better off as bait than fighters." He mumbled, he imagined Eren, 3D gear out of air, running from Titan's. He started to cry again and sat down. She kneeled down next to him and rubbed his back. She sighed deeply and looked around, "Wait, where is your troop." She muttered, Levi froze shocked that he had completely forgotten all about them.

"I sent them to your office to practice using the 3D gear…" he whispered, embarrassed. She laughed and stood up, she stuck out her hand to help him up.

He got up and tried to calm himself down. "Come on, let's go see if anyone's died." She joked, which caused him to start having an anxiety attack.

"Oh calm down, I was joking." She frowned.

"I-I know…" He sighed, starting to head towards her office.
