3rd Person POV
(F/N) is staring out the windshield, with random thoughts going on in his head. The idea of playing music would probably be a nuisance since he had to explain the whole car stereo bullshit and he didn't feel like it.
The survey corps members were staring out of the windows, even Levi. They all seemed surprised at how everyone they saw had cars.
"I never expected everyone to own these 'cars' so easily" Jean said
"Yeah, back in our world, chariots were for the rich and mighty only. No poor man could own one." Eren continued
"Well there are different versions of cars" (F/N) stepped in "You got big fancy ones for the rich, and lesser ones for the lesser people."
"So a class system exists here too..." Mikasa told (F/N)
"Sadly yes, although it isn't as severe as your world. Most services with few exceptions are available to everyone"
"That's a relief I suppose"
(F/N) looked at the mirror and nodded.
(F/N)'s POV
The car was silent for a while before Christa spoke up.
"So (F/N), what type of clothes are we getting?"
"Two outfits, so you can alternate between em instead of wearing just one and washing it continuously."
"Not that I wouldn't mind cleaning them" Levi mumbled
We all stared at him
"Keep going before I stab you"
I looked away from the mirror and drove.
"That aside... What type of clothes are we going to choose though. We don't know your world's fashion choice is."
"No worries bout that, I called ahead and explained. The owner isn't gonna know who y'all are, but her son is another fan. He'll help you out."
"Is he gonna freak out when he sees us?" Levi asked "or reveal secrets that should never see the light of day?"
"No not this time...hopefully" I mumbled the last part
Timeskip of 10 minutes brought to you by Erwin dabbing intensely.
We arrived at the place. I parked the van and looked behind me.
"Alright people, if I said it before, I'll say it again. We're sending you in bursts. More preferably by row. So for now, Erwin come down with me. You should be easy to fit first since you match my friend's size. The rest of you, don't blow up the car please."
Erwin struggled a bit but he opened the door.
We closed the doors leaving the van to the mercy of Levi and Hange.
BRRRRRRRIIIIING
The door rang open as we walked in
"(F/N)! YOU ASSHOLE. YOU'RE LATE!" A male shouted at me
"SHUT UP ACE, YOU'RE ANNOYING!" A female shouted out
"YOU'RE ANNOYING MINAKO!" The man named Ace shouted back
The man shouting is my best friend, Ace Ardbert Hikari. He's two years older than me. He was my senior at highschool before graduating one year ago. The female screaming in question is his half-sister, Minako Yuki. She's only 3 months younger than me. They share the same deadbeat dad who cheated on Ace's mom with Minako's mom and left em both. Minako's mom passed when she was 10 and has been living with Ace and his mom ever since. Ace's mom doesn't hold a grudge for Minako since it wasn't her fault for making her ex-husband cheat. Minako and Ace kept their mothers' last names since they hate their dad.
"You're both annoying, we have guests. Respect yourself or I'll bring the sandal out." Ace's mom spoke out.
Erwin was just looking at them in confusion, then looked at me.
"Just get used to it, they're always like this" I shook my head. "Fun group to mess around with though."
He nodded his head.
Ace walked up to Erwin and inspected him. It was obvious he was going fan mode. I grabbed him and pulled him back.
"I need you to relax Ace, it hasn't even been 2 days since they showed up."
Ace rolled his eyes.
"Fine...bitch." He laughed
He walked up to Erwin again and introduced himself
"Hey there, my friends call me Ace, but you can call me anytime." He winked.
Minako showed up and smacked him on the back of the head.
"He don't got a phone, and stop being horny you man-whore"
Ace was gonna argue but his mom shot him a stare, he mumbled away.
"Nice to meet you all. Thank you for helping us." Erwin bowed.
"Oh don't mention it. Any friends of (F/N) are friends of ours" Minako spoke. "Now let's get you a new fit."
She led him to the back, while I checked my phone. I received multiple texts, most of them were spams but one was from (C/N)
C/N: Bruh you fucking left me home alone
Oh yeah I did do that.
Me: And?
C/N: I could be attacked?
Me: And?
C/N: Tf you mean and?
Me: I mean... The ODM gears are in the basement. Just stab a bitch.
C/N: ...
C/N: Fair enough
Me: I'll be home within the hour.
Me: Also your BF called, so call him back.
C/N: Aight.
I put my phone away and Erwin came out with a navy blue dress shirt with the sleeves raised, white pants and a black belt, and black laced dress shoes.
"Is this normal enough?" Erwin asked as he looked at himself
"I think so, for now at least. Until I get more cash for more clothes. Don't want to keep you wearing formal constantly" I answered
"I also tossed in a sky blue dress shirt, since it matches too." Minako said
"That's no problem." I said. "I'll get the next group." I opened the door and went back out.
Time flew by as they were testing clothes, consulting each other, Ace hitting on Bertholdt, Erwin, and Jean. Jean and Connie hitting on Minako. Both failing miserably. The sibling's mother yelling at them every time they fought... guess this is gonna be a routinely thing.
At the end of it everyone had two outfits.
I prepared myself mentally for how much it'll cost but nothing could have helped me predict the price.
"500!? You're shitting me, right!? The fuck did you give them, Gucci!?"
Ace's mom slapped me and spoke in her native language before looking back at me.
"You forget I have your mother on speed dial child."
Oh fuck, I forgot.
"I'll let it slide this time because this was a fun time for me. You can pay what you can and have your friends work off the rest. You know it get's busy around this time of year. Beaches and pools and whatnot."
"Thank you very much Ms. Hikari. I'll drop em off any day of the week."
"Well I'm opening soon, so if you can leave like three or four behind and pick them up later."
Ace perked up
"Can we keep Jean, Erwin and Bertholdt?" he begged me.
"I mean, they ain't my pets or animals. Ask em."
He looked over to the three
Jean pointed at him.
"As long as you don't try to do anything funny." he shouted before whispering to him "and get me close to your sister."
Connie heard him because he got agitated
"I'm staying too then!"
Reiner joined in.
"Hell yeah! Let's get some babes!"
We stared at him.
"What?"
"Reiner, you're going back home." Hange spoke up.
He looked down before grabbing the bags of clothes and walked back to the van sulking.
"I didn't know he was this horny..." Ymir stated.
I sighed and walked to the door.
"Thanks again Ms. Hikari. Call me when you don't need them anymore."
She waved along with the four boys left behind.
We sat in the van preparing to leave.
Levi sat upfront next to me instead of Erwin
"Are you sure they'll be fine?" Shorty said.
"Yeah, I'm sure of it. My friends aren't crazed murderers...probably"
I turned the van on and left the parking lot as he stared at me with a cold intent
The van was silent the whole way home. Talk about the impossible being possible.
I parked the van in the driveway and opened the doors to let everyone out.
We walked in the house and Reiner put the bags to the side before sitting down thinking about something.
The EMA trio were falling asleep on the couch.
Ymir and Christa were talking with each other in the kitchen.
Levi was smelling the clothes and a sign of disgust showed on his face. He grabbed them and went to the washing room. Hange followed close behind him. Probably to help.
Sasha was raiding the kitchen since she her only two other friends are gone
I scratched the back of my head and went upstairs.
(C/N) was gone. The bed was messy, pillow on the ground and she didn't leave behind a note or anything. Not even my shirt, it was my favorite sleeping shirt.
I sighed and picked up the pillow, tossing it back on my bed.
Realizing how early I woke up, despite forgetting the reason I woke up was for the squad, along with some feeling of pain or sadness, a wave of doziness slowly began to suffocate me. A few minutes of sleep wouldn't hurt right?
Timeskip of 3 hours brought to you by Eren getting his ass beat by Levi
My visions and thoughts slowly came to me. Any dream I had was forgotten. My throat felt dry and my body was drenched with sweat. I had that weird feeling where you wake up in the day and your body feels sore. I slowly lifted my head only to where an eye peaked from the pillow and struggled to grab my phone.
I read the time, 3 hours had passed. I groaned and put my face back in the pillow. I overslept as usual. The heat was unbearable too, how did I sleep in this heatwave with no air conditioning.
I hopped in the shower and drenched myself in cold water to cool. My clothes were wet from the sweat so I put on a tank top and shorts. I walked outta my room and peeked in my brother's. The EMA trio were sitting in front of the AC with their eyes closed. Eren seemed to enjoy it the most. I look into my parents room to see the same thing with Ymir, Christa, and Hange.
I went downstairs and checked the washing room. Levi was still at it, he seemed to have taken everyone's jackets too. The only two I couldn't find in the house were Sasha and Reiner.
I heard grunting noises coming from the backward.
I hoped to dear God those two aren't doing what I think they are doing. At least do it inside, not outside where the entire damn neighborhood can see them.
I prepared myself for what I would probably call my weirdest fap yet, but sighed in a mix of relief and confusion.
"Can you feel...urgh...it Sasha?"
"I...ah...I'm feeling it Reiner."
They were doing... pushups?
"That's it Sasha! Feel the burn! Let all of that built up pressure and energy out!"
Oh yeah, Reiner did do that type of stuff when he had energy to burn up.
"(F/N)! Just in time! Join us for a few!" He said as he stood up.
"No thanks, I just took a shower."
"Man, a shower sounds great right about now."
He wiped his brow from all the sweat with his shirt.
Dude was legit built different.
I looked down my shirt to find myself lacking severely in comparison.
Sure I wasn't the buffest, neither was I the weakest, but I could have definitely worked on myself. Maybe I'll train with REINAH.
"I assume the shower is in your room?" He spoke up, making me come back to the world.
"Huh? Yeah there's a shower in my room, as well as the other two bedrooms. My parents have the fanciest one if I do say so myself."
"You mind getting the water running? I have to pick up our dead friend here."
Sasha was on the ground, and not moving. I grabbed a nearby stick and began poking her.
Welp...she probably fainted.
"I'll start the girls' shower too and someone could probably bathe her.
Reiner slung her over his shoulder.
"Yeah that probably works."
I went up with Reiner following behind me. I turned on the cold water for my parents' shower and explained to the ladies that were cooling down the situation. They had no problem with it.
Reiner went to the shower and I set out a pair of shorts and a tank top.
Thinking about it, I really concerned myself with Sasha, but I haven't had the time to talk with the other girls.
The other three are showering Sasha, so that leaves Mikasa. Wonder if she's still cooling down.
I peeked in my bro's room. The trio were chatting. Eren laid on the ground tossing a baseball to the ceiling and catching it. Armin was reading through one of my brother's history books. Mikasa was touching my brother's sword collection. It ranged from British Longwords to Japanese Katanas.
I walked up right behind her and asked, "Which one caught your eye the most?"
She was startled, more than she'd like to show compared to her calm demeanor.
"Oh, uhhhh, (F/N). What're you doing here?" She asked.
"I live here?"
"That's...not what I meant."
"I know, I messing with ya. Everyone's busy so there's not much to do. I was wondering what you three are doing."
I grabbed one of the three katanas, unsheathing it. Shiny, just how my bro left it, wonder how he's been. I handed it to Mikasa.
She grabbed it and surprisingly, wielded it with ease.
"Feels different from the ODM gear." She said.
"I assume it does. I haven't held an actual ODM sword, and I doubt a replica knockoff resembles it."
She handed me the sword and I put it up after sheathing it.
I sat down on my bro's bed and thought for a bit. These guys would have suffered had they stayed in their world. After reading the manga, I'm glad they're here. They get to be actual teens.
My phone buzzed and it was Ace. Probably to tell me they were done from the boys for the day. I opened the message.
Ace: We're done here, if you wanna pick them up. You can take your time though and let me enjoy mine :o
Me: Yeah no, I'm on my way.
Ace: You're an ass
Me: They do say "You are what you eat".
Ace: Uh huh, ok virgin boy.
Damn he really went with that.
"You ok (F/N)?" Mikasa said standing up while looking at me.
"Yeah, Ace messaged me, We need to get Erwin and the other boys. Wanna come with?"
Eren jumped on her back.
"Do we!? Hell yeah!"
Mikasa put her hand on Eren's face and looked at him intimitely
"Uhhhhhhhh, Mikasa?" He asked.
She then proceeded to grab him by the neck and flipped him over her back, which promptly let him land on his, causing him to groan in pain.
"Just as I thought, losing your powers have made you weak."
"Uh Mikasa, I don't think it's him losing his powers that made him weak. I just think you're too strong." Armin spoke up.
Eren got up slowly.
"By the walls, how long have you been waiting to do that Mikasa?"
"Tsk Tsk" I said "You really gotta show your love other than harming people Mikasa?"
She blushed
"Wha..."
"Alright, let's go"
We walked downstairs before someone grabbed me by the neck.
"Where're you brats going?"
"Oh hey Levi, we're just going to get Erwin and the others."
"And you were going by yourself?"
"No, I was taking these three with me."
He stared at me before handing me his knife.
"Here, you'll probably need this."
"Thanks?"
"I'll hold down the fort."
I shook my head and left to the car.
Timeskip of 20 mins brought to you by Sawney and Bean chasing Hange
I arrived at the store to see Ms. Hikari locking the door to the store and everyone else standing outside.
Ace noticed me and approached the car holding up a bag.
"The hell is that?" I asked
"Swimsuits, on the house" He told me
"Swim...suits?"
"We're hanging out tomorrow at the pool remember? Mr Lifeguard."
"Ace, you're crazy."
"I know that, what else is new?"
"I can sneak in you and your sister, not 10+ people"
"Oh it'll be fine. You get to look at my sister in a bikini" he winks "Hell, even the other girls. Meanwhile I get to enjoy the view... hehehehehe"
"Ace you're drooling."
He wiped his mouth.
"Anyways they did a good job, see ya!"
He ran back to his mom
The 4 soldiers got in the car.
"So how was working for the first time?" I asked them
"Minako is so cold. Didn't even bat an eye." Jean looked down
"I tried getting multiple girls but they ignored me, one even slapped me." Connie slid his body down the chair.
"Ace hit on me and the commander multiple times" Bertholdt said
I looked at Erwin and he nodded.
"Oh, you poor souls." I said while backing up the car.
Yet another timeskip brought to you by Ace and Minako fighting while their mom grabs the belt.
"We're home" I said as we walked in.
"Welcome back" Reiner said, walking towards us. "(F/N), these clothes are so relaxing. You got anymore of these?"
"A bunch, plus there's my brother's too"
He pat me on the back before walking to Bertholdt.
"Oi Erwin" Levi came out of the basement. "Are you ok?"
"Yes, don't worry Levi. We're fine" He responded
"JEAN, CONNIE" Sasha shouted as she ran down the stairs. She tackled them to the ground before shouting more. "IF YOU BOTH LEAVE ME ALONE AGAIN, I'LL DIE FROM BOREDOM AND HAUNT YOU."
She was wearing my mom's night gown so her bottoms were pretty clear.
Mikasa glared at me and the guys as we tried our best not to stare.
"GET THE HELL OFF ME POTATO GIRL." Jean shouted back.
"Glad you guys miss each other but if you can gather around, I have something to say."
Everyone stood around me, with the exception of the other three women
"HANGE, YMIR, CHRISTA. COME DOWN HERE REALLY QUICK."
The stood at the top the stair and stopped there.
"You guys good?" Eren asked
"Yeah, the cold air hits really good here." Christa said while smiling.
"Shit, lemme get up there" Eren tried to go up before Mikasa grabbed his collar.
"Anyways, now that we're all here. As you all know, we work here to earn money, and considering how I'd go broke fast if I were to spend on you guys, I have work tomorrow. At the pool."
"A pool?" Hange pondered.
"A small artificial body of water, we mainly use it to swim and cool down in the summer. Beside that, I'd rather not leave you guys here but it'd be hard to sneak you in, plus you have no swimming clothes."
"That's true, swimming in pants would prove tough." Reiner said.
"However, due to the KINDNESS in Ace's heart, he gave you all free swim suits,"
The boys eyes opened wide, except Levi and Erwin
"Wait..." Jean said
"...does that mean..." Connie continued
"...that we get..." Eren followed
"...to see them... " Reiner went after
Talk about in sync.
"I swear I knew this was coming." Levi sighed annoyingly "Stupid brats" he mumbled
"Yes boys, the girls will be wearing clothes similar to my magazines upstairs." I said
"YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES" They all shouted and celebrated
Ymir's face grew surprised
She called up the girls and whispered to them before they realized what the boys meant.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" They shouted back before locking themselves in my parents' room.
