Forgive all the grammar, spelling, etc (DO NOT TELL ME ABOUT THE MISTAKES I OBVIOUSLY KNOW.)
(A peek to the past)
Carla is 100% Colombian born and raised, of course she raised her kids on that culture. Now how does a german white man meet a hispanic woman in Colombia? She was only 18 at the time pretty young right? Grisha happened to be in Colombia on vacation when he met this very beautiful woman. Only problem was…she didn't speak any sort of english, and obviously she didn't know any german, so Grisha took it upon his self to learn Spanish…some where along the way they fell madly in love with each other. Of course at this point Grisha had to get a visa in order to stay in the country longer than two months. So that's exactly what he did. They were only together a year before Grisha proposed and a year later the two were expecting twins. Carla was only 20 at the time and Grisha was 30. Age didn't matter to neither of them. Soon after the twins were born though, Grisha ran into a problem, his green card was expiring, Carla was absolutely devastated, they weren't married yet and it would be too late to even apply for a marriage visa for him to stay there. Grisha would have to leave Colombia and go back to Germany alone without his love and his beautiful kids. The twins were still to young to be traveling on plane for hours so they had no other choice. The hardest thing Grisha did was leave the love of his life and children in a different country far freaking away. With no form of communication, Grisha had no idea how they were or what was happening with them. It was a year later, he knew he missed his babies first birthday and he was devastated truly. One day he got a knock at his door and when he answered it, there they were his beautiful family.
"Carla?!" Grisha exclaimed. "Q-Que haces aqui?! C-como llegaste aqui?" Grisha takes his baby girl from her kissing her face.
"I move to German…us be a family." She said with a smile walking inside of his home.
He looks at her in shock. "Y-you're speaking english now?" Grisha feels his heart swell in his chest. He was with his family again.
Carla left everything for her family to be together, her mother and father who didn't want her to leave in the first place but she had babies who needed a dad, and she was madly in love. It was six months after that Grisha and Carla finally got married. As the twins got older they wanted their first languages to be Spanish, second to be German, and third to be English. Of course as parents they wanted a very educated but fun and free life for their children. A couple years later the twins are turning 5, that's when the twins parents agreed to move to America. Their life didn't suck in Germany but it's not what they wanted for their babies. So off the Jaegers moved to Shingashina.
Now fast forward to the present. Grisha whom became a world renowned surgeon and their mother who is the host of one of the biggest shows on television is now living in Trost. Of course Carla misses her mother it's been almost 16 years since she's last seen them or even spoke to them.
There was a knock on the door. "I got it!" Grisha yelled. He jogged to the door opening it, he smiles at the older couple there, and smiles at the woman and man. "She's right in the kitchen, with your the children."
The family nods smiling very big they all walk inside toward the kitchen. They stand at the opening. "Grisha who was it?" Carla asked while taking the cookies she made out of the oven setting the tray on the stove. She turns toward the opening of the kitchen and screams. The twins look up in shock. "M-mama?" Carla stutters out.
"Princesa." Her mother says with arms open, Carla runs into her mother and fathers arms hugging them so tight. "Te mira, ve como su madre." Her father says.
The twins stand up looking at each other very curious. "Mom?" Erin calls to her mom.
Carla sniffles. "Oh my god." She lets go of her parents and moves over to her kids pushing them forward a little bit. "Mama, Papi these are your grandchildren all grown up now."
Both the twins make a shocked face. "This is abuela and abuelito?" Eren ask. Carla nods at her son.
"And this is your Tia Valentina and your Tio Alejandro." Carla smiled. "My older sister and brother. They haven't seen you kids since you were still in diapers." The twins wave at all of them, they knew that their mother hasn't seen her family since the twins were really small.
"Which wasn't that long ago for some of us." Rin muttered. Eren popped her in the arm. "OW!"
"Don't talk shit!" Eren screamed at her. "I haven't wore diapers since I was five!"
"I stopped wearing diapers when I was three…we were five 10 years ago…again wasn't that long ago!" Rin threw back at her brother.
Eren turned to his twin. "Do you really wanna fight in front of family, i'm ready!"
"Let's go then bro!" Rin screamed back at Eren.
"ENOUGH!" Carla voice raised a little, the twins grandparents and aunt and uncle laughed at them.
"They sure are feisty Carla, exactly how you and Alejandro use to be!" Valentina exclaimed.
Carla shook her head. "That's because Alejandro has a big ass head…" Carla mutters.
"I heard that you know? My head is big because my brain is too large." He explains.
"Did a medical professional tell you that or is that what you want to believe hermano?" Carla challenged with a smirk.
"A doctor told me that for you information! He said my head is big because i'm freaking brilliant!" Alejandro challenged back.
"Grisha! Come here! You're a neurosurgeon, come tell him his brain isn't that big because he's brilliant but because he just has a big ass head!" Carla screamed.
Grisha, Valentina, The twins, and Carla's parents all just sighed. "This has never changed. Grisha remember when you first came to our house and you walked in on Carla and Alejandro wrestling in the back yard?" Valentina laughs at the memory.
"Oh goodness, yes. That was a funny sight to be honest." Grisha laughs at the memory watching his wife and brother in law close to fighting again.
It was Saturday evening around 5PM someone knocked on the Jaegers door. "Coming!" Someone yelled from inside. They opened the door to reveal a beautiful woman with familiar colored eyes, long black hair, and pale skin.
"Good evening, I'm sorry to be here so late but I am Kuchel, you go to school with my kids and i'm also No Name's manager." She smiles at the boy.
"Eren who is it?" Carla yells walking to the front door. "Oh, Kuchel!" Carla pushes Eren away from the door. "Please excuse my rude child, come in." She opens the door more and Kuchel steps in.
"It's quite alright Carla, I actually wanted to speak to you about something. No Name has personally invited Eren and Erin to a private listening party for their new album…which is in two hours. I was wondering if they were allowed? I know it's late and so very sudden." Kuchel explains.
Carla looks over at her twins and sees there eyes pleading at their mother, she shakes her head and laughs. "Could you say no to those faces." She points toward the both of them.
Kuchel's heart sped up for a second and her face melted a little bit. "They are adorable Carla…you're right I couldn't say no even if I wanted to!" Kuchel shook her head. 'I see what they mean.' She thinks to her self.
Eren and Erin run over to their mom and hug her. She laughs at them. "Yeah yeah, hurry up and go get dressed!"
"Wait." Eren says turning around and looking at Kuchel. "You said we go to school with your kids…who are they?"
Kuchel laughs. "Levi and Mikasa."
"WHAT!?" Both twins exclaimed. "They were like are first friends we met at the school!" Erin explained to Kuchel.
Eren pops his sister in the arm. "Levi looks exactly like his mother! Wait…" Eren's brain started running a mile a minute. "You're No Name's manager…does that mean Levi and Mikasa has met them?!" Eren asked a bit excitedly.
Kuchel giggles. "Oh yeah, they meet a lot…Levi really likes Rivaille. Now you two go get dressed, No Name really wants to meet you!"
"Thank you thank you thank you!" The two twins run up the stairs to get dressed.
30 minutes later both of the Jaeger twins walk down the stairs together side by side. Everyone who was in the house at that moment literally could not take their eyes off of them. "Look at my beautiful babies…." Carla whispered more to herself. Even Kuchel was a bit speechless but she knocked herself out of it and smiled. 'Like the Princesses going to the ball…Levi and Mika are gonna lose it when they see them.' She thought.
Carla already knew Eren was into dressing a bit feminine, really she had no problem with it. She loved her son but it was kind of like she got two daughters and she was pretty happy about that. When it came to dressing though Eren always had a little of a provocative side but with that he was wearing now it was just right. Carla's daughter was a sweetheart really her style went with however she was feeling, tonight Carla figured she felt like a princess because that's exactly how she dressed.
Eren had on a light peach colored short sleeve off the shoulder foldover dress with a slit from the bottom to the top of his knee, with nude open toe heels. Light make up, no eyeshadow on his eyes just winged liner that made his doe like eyes pop even more, no blush because his cheeks were already blushing, and a touch of gloss on his lips. Eren some how tamed his messy hair slightly curling a bit of his hair to give an effect of a bowl cut a bit still fashionable though.
Rin had on a light pink short cocktail boat cut off shoulder half sleeve lace dress with white round toe thick heel buckle strap heels. Her hair was up in a bun bangs out of her face, flowers around the bun making it pretty decoration in her hair. She also had on very light make up but just enough to make her face pop. Winged eye liner just like her twin making her beautiful eyes pop, no blush, very light gloss on her lips.
Grisha walked in the living room and paused. "Grisha, don't they look stunning!" Carla squealed to her husband. Grisha mouth dropped open and he looked at his son. Eren came out to Grisha when he was 12, he was so scared to tell his dad he felt like he liked men and loved dressing in girl clothes, Grisha smiled at his son, kissed his forehead and told him if he ever wanted some good fashion advice on cute style to always ask him. Eren laughed at him because he knew his father knew nothing about woman fashion yet he said it to let Eren know it was okay and he accepted him no matter what. So to see his son, his baby boy, and his baby girl really dressed up looking so much like their mother, it literally brought tears to Grisha eyes. His babies they were beautiful. It wasn't like they were going off to prom or anything fancy like that but his kids…these were his babies almost all grown up. "Yeah…they are beautiful." He murmured.
The twins kissed all their families face and left out the door with Kuchel. Both of the Jaegers couldn't believe their eyes when they got into the limo with Kuchel. Eren looks at his sister and gives her a big smile feeling so nervous, they couldn't believe they were going to a listening party for No Name, with No Name actually freaking there. It blew there mind and No Name invited them no less. Of course anybody else would think it was too good to be true but honestly if it was they were going to enjoy this little time. Eren knew he had little chance of even being with someone like Rivaille. Be his actual boyfriend? 'Ha!' Eren laughed to himself. Although he knew this was a dream he would soon wake up from he did want to enjoy it. Rin however she was curious to know why known artist, celebrities wanted to know people like them. To them the twins weren't even on this list of known people regardless of who their parents were. Of course Rin was ecstatic that they even want to take the time out of their lives to even acknowledge they exist. She felt happy that they even want them in their lives but she knew this wouldn't last long and it hurt to think about it, with how much her brother loves Rivaille looks up to him even. His admiration for that man…was beyond. Rin knew she was really starting to like Rivaille's sister. It's so weird Rivaille's sister doesn't really have a name it's just M. Which could really be any name out there. Every time Rin spoken to her through messages or even when they talk on the phone for a bit she falls. Why was she falling for someone she knew she could never fucking have? It hurt physically hurt. Tonight though, Rin wasn't going to let that get her down. If this was maybe one of the last time that M and Rivaille would ever acknowledge her and her brother so be it. They were going to enjoy it. Fuck everyone else.
It was 6:45 PM when they arrived more into the city of Trost, where all the big tall building were, big expensive businesses, beautiful shops, bustling with people. Kuchel got out first and the twins followed into this big building, once they were in and got on the elevator, Kuchel pressed the button labeled PH. The twins look at each other with eyes wide. 'PH? PENTHOUSE?! HOLY FUCKIN SHIT!' Eren's inner monologue screamed.
The bell ding. They were here…Holy shit they were here. When the doors opened they couldn't believe what they were seeing. This huge penthouse with a lot of ceiling to floor windows over looking the city. It was decorated nice as hell too. There was instruments on a little stage on one side of the room. This place was HUGE. At least 50 people which were all celebrities, or well known people, respected business people as well. Most were young, older than the twins of course but younger than 40.
"Don't be so scared guys, just be yourselves!" Kuchel smiles at them. "I'll go see where No Name is…" Kuchel looks at them. "No champagne, apple cider is on the right side of the table…everything else help yourselves." She smiled again before walking away.
Rin and Eren stare at each other than back to the room. Eren places his clutch purse under his arm and takes a deep breath, he looks at his sister and sees her doing the same thing. "Apple cider then it is?" Eren smiles at his sister.
"You think she'll know if we just take a glass of champagne?" Rin asks.
Eren shakes his head. "No way…I think we'll need it." He sighs nervously a bit. Both of the twins take another deep a bit shakey breath and walk over to the table grabbing two glasses of champagne. They both down their drinks quick almost like a shot. Of course it wasn't the first time they drank. Even though they are young they have tasted it before and of course they drink it here and there, maybe sneak a little at a party kind of like now. They put the empty glasses were they seen everyone else put theirs.
Eren took his sister hand and pulled her to the door opening he seen. It was a balcony a really big balcony over looking the city. The sun was still up since it was summer time it was going down a bit however. The pinks, oranges, yellows of the sky casting on the building. "Wow" Rin breathed out. "It's so beautiful." Eren murmurs.
"I can think of two people more beautiful.." A voice says from behind them.
Both of the twins spin around quick to find Rivaille and M standing there. Levi looked at Eren and took it all in, his heart pounding in his chest trying to literally jump out his fucking chest. He thanked fuck Eren couldn't see his eyes widen. Eren was breath taking…out of this world, gorgeous, amazing, beautiful…there was not enough words in Levi's vocabulary to describe how magnificent Eren looked. Levi can admit and will admit that Eren is the first person to ever take his breath away by just looking at him.
Mikasa is trying so hard not to pass out, or something because she can feel all the blood in her body rush to her heart to keep it from bursting. Rin is gorgeous…no gorgeous wasn't the word. More like enchanting? No that wasn't it. Mikasa was speechless taking in Rin. She literally can hear her heart pounding…is that her heart or her brothers? She couldn't tell at all.
"W-who would that be?" Rin stuttered out.
To say Mikasa felt like Levi did would be an understatement. When Mikasa turns into "M" she is confident as fuck, charming, androgynous feel to her. Her dominance is enhanced as "M". Has no shame in her game what so ever, even deepens her voice a bit to give a bit of a manly feel to it but not much. "You." Mikasa smirks at Rin.
Levi smirks and looks to Eren. "And you.."
The twins are wide eyed looking at the siblings in disbelief. They couldn't believe they just called them beautiful. Eren was sure he died and gone to heaven. Rin was sure she couldn't be revive at this point.
When Eren finally noticed what Rivaille was wear his jaw dropped. His mouth was open slightly taking in Levi's appearance. His black hair slicked back even with the bandages around his eyes. Tight suit black blazer on him, with a tight dark grey dress shirt under it, the first two buttons were unbuttoned. Black tight skinny jeans that followed that with ankle high boots. Eren wonder if he could move in that. Levi seemed to know what Eren was thinking and chuckled. "You like what i'm wearing Eren?" Levi asks him. Eren shut his mouth quick, his whole face turning red nodding.
Rin looked at M already knowing her signature style, blazer with loose v-neck under, tight jeans, with booths a little heel on them. Besides now she shaved the left side of her head, her long black hair all on the right side, she even cut her to about her jawline. Rin eyes ran down and up M's body taking it all in as well. Even though M wore the same bandages along with her brother Rin thought she was beautiful.
"Y-your really pretty…" Rin stutters out to Mikasa while blushing.
Mikasa smiles and moves closer to Rin taking her hand. "Thank you. Would you like to get something to drink with me?" She asks Rin.
Rin nods her head, then looks at her brother. He just smiles at her nodding with his head to go ahead. She nods back at him and walks inside with "M". As M leads Rin toward the drinks something about the girl in front of her seems so familiar, she couldn't quite put her finger on it but she feels like she's known M longer than she's actually has know her. It's weird. She shakes it off though.
Rivaille smiles at Eren walking closer to him. He unbuttons his blazer and walks over to the railing leaning on it. Eren walks over standing to the side of him. "Eren, can I ask you something?" Rivaille ask turning toward Eren.
Eren nods his head. "A-ask away." He squeaks a bit and looks away a little embarrassed.
Rivaille chuckles then takes a deep breath. "If you knew I was someone else…would you hate me?"
Eren furrows his brows. "What do you mean?"
"If I wasn't who you thought I was…would you hate me?"
Eren had to think about it, if Rivaille turned out to be someone he really wasn't would he hate him? No. Eren knows he has to be one way for the cameras but he's a complete different person off the camera. Eren seen that first hand but not only that the way he gets so passionate up on stage he really is a different person then. The brunette though about his words carefully before answering. "I wouldn't hate you."
"Why is that?" Rivaille asked.
"B-because when you perform I can see the real you a-and I think that would never take away from you n-no matter who you really are as a person." Eren cleared his throat a bit putting on a look of determination. "When No Name first came out and you guys very first video it was just of actors or something but it was your voice over that…I could feel everything you put in that song. When you guys first performed live ever and you came all came out with your bandages and you started singing a whole song acapella because of technically problems…I…I felt it…I serious felt every single emotion you were feeling. Your voice speaks for you…I know you write all of the songs…All those songs are how you really feel…they're about you and who you are, who you want to be…I-I know that's the real you so even if you were to tell me you weren't who was texting me everyday or on camera or even stage…I…I know the real you."
Levi looked at Eren really looked at Eren even though the brunette couldn't see Levi eyes. The raven just stared at Eren. He knew it. He knew it right then and there. Levi was fucking in love with Eren. His heart clenched because of his realization. Then it dawned on him he's still lying to Eren. He's lying to the person he's madly in love with, the person who said he couldn't hate him even if he turned out to be someone else.
"Eren I…" Levi is interrupted by Kuchel.
"Rivaille…time to perform." She smiles at him.
Levi turns to look back at Eren to see he already walking inside the house. Levi takes a deep breath and walks back inside. Kuchel hands him his tea with just a little bit of honey in it. He begins warming up his voice. He starts thinking of all the things Eren just said. After the band warms up, they take the stage.
Two other people joined them up on stage with bandages as well to help them with this song. This is completely different to their usual style but that's exactly why they love it. Because of Eren however Levi went into a total different direction of this song. They were shocked when they heard the idea about this song but agreed to it anyway.
The music started up and he began to sing.
Do I look lonely?
I see the shadows on my face
People have told me I don't look the same
Maybe I lost weight
I'm playing hooky, with the best of the best
Put my heart on my chest, so that you can see it too
He has a jazzy tone to his voice. Even he doesn't know where it came from but he goes with it.
I'm walking the long road, watching the sky fall
The lace in your dress tingles my neck, how do I live?
The death of a bachelor
Oh, oh, oh
Letting the water fall
The death of a bachelor
Oh, oh, oh
Seems so fitting for
Levi's sings this part higher than the others.
Happily ever after
Woo ooh
His band mates eyes go wide never actually hearing his voice go that high before. Going back to the same continuing the chorus.
How could I ask for more?
A lifetime of laughter
At the expense of the death of a bachelor
Levi looks right at Eren when he sings this part because he feels this is all for the boy. He makes sure Eren knows this part is for him smiling at him as he does.
I'm cutting my mind off
It feels like my heart is going to burst
Alone at a table for two and I just wanna be served
And when you think of me am I the best you've ever had?
Share one more drink with me, smile even though you're sad
He pulls the mic off the stand and walks from one side to sing to some of the people their then walking over to the other side doing the same.
I'm walking the long road, watching the sky fall
The lace in your dress tingles my neck, how do I live?
Levi puts the mic back on the stand closing his eyes really feeling the words of the song he just came up with.
The death of a bachelor
Oh, oh, oh
Letting the water fall
The death of a bachelor
Oh, oh, oh
Seems so fitting for
Happily ever after
Woo ooh ~
How could I ask for more?
A lifetime of laughter
At the expense of the death of a bachelor
His band just plays for a minute. Nobody singing just letting the instruments play for a bit. He still stands of front of the mic tapping his foot to the beat and bobbin his head to it. He takes a deep breath and starts singing again.
The death of a bachelor
Oh, oh, oh
Letting the water fall
The death of a bachelor
Oh, oh, oh
Seems so fitting for
Happily ever after
His voice goings even higher than before here since it's the last chorus he wants it to be a little more flashy.
Woo ooh ~
How could I ask for more?
A lifetime of laughter
At the expense of the death of a bachelor
When the song ends everyone claps. "Woo!" Someone screams. "That was great!" Someone else yells. The applause keeps going. Levi nods at them. They walk down from the stage. That was the only song No Name was performing tonight. Kuchel held a bottle of water out to Levi. He graciously took it and opening it and drinking from it.
"I didn't know your voice could get that high Rivaille." Kuchel smiled at her son and laughed at the face he gave her.
Over on the side near the balcony again Mikasa and Rin were there. The brunette couldn't get it out of her brain that there was something familiar about M. She just couldn't place her finger on it. M was telling Rin about some sucky song she wrote a few months ago and how she almost put it out until Rivaille saw it and ripped it to shreds. M chuckled at the memory. Rin freezes when she hears the laugh. 'I know that laugh.' Rin thinks to herself.
Rin not clearly thinking or well thinking perfectly fine actually, she moves close to M, real close. M freezes up. Rin reaches up to M and pulls the bandages down, her eyes wide, jaw dropped. "M-Mikasa?" Rin asks.
Mikasa hurriedly pushes the bandages back on her face. "R-Rin I can explain."
That's when it all dawns on Rin. She laughs bitterly. "Holy shit…So if you're…Rivaille is L-Levi?"
"Rin just listen to me okay…"
"Oh my fucking god." Rin quickly walks back inside on the verge of fucking tears. She wasn't gonna tell Eren this. She couldn't. Rin is so mad at herself for not figuring it out before. How could she even over look this? Even with the bandages on they look just fucking like them! She didn't know if they were planning a sick game or what kind of bullshit this is, but she didn't want to stay to find out. Rin knew Mikasa was running after her but she didn't care. She found her brother and went up to him smiling. "B-Bro can we go home please?"
Mikasa finally caught up with her. "Rin, please listen to me." Mikasa tone was low but pleading.
"Please Eren." Rin begs ignoring Mikasa.
Eren raises his brow at her then at M. "Did something happen?" Eren can always sense when his twin was in distressed. He looked at her eyes and seen they were getting watery. "Okay…i'll go tell Kuchel alright?" He looks between his twin and M. "A-are you okay here?"
She just nodded her head. "Please hurry up."
He nods at her, looking at her one last time then goes off to find Kuchel.
Mikasa tried to pull Rin more closer to the elevator. "Please let me explain, okay?"
"Explain? How you and your brother are playing some fucking game?" Rin hisses.
"No it's not like that…we have to hide our identity. It's our image…we just…we couldn't tell you."
Rin laughs bitterly. "I understand that all perfectly good and well but you lied to me. You've been feeding into my mind and he's been feeding into Eren's how much you like us. Were you ever gonna tell us?" Rin furrowed her brows.
Mikasa looked away from her knowing she wasn't planning on telling her anytime soon.
"So you weren't…" Rin scoffs and laughs. "Don't worry. I won't tell Eren both of your little secrets." Rin shakes her head looking at Rivaille walking over to them with Eren.
"Rin.."
"Eren?"
"We can go, Kuchel called a car for us." He smiled at his sister. "Thank you for the amazing night…it was good. I really like your new song." He smiled at Rivaille.
"I'm glad. I can walk you down." He suggest.
He shakes his at Rivaille. "Get back to your guest!" The elevator dings and he smiles at Rivaille again walking inside with his sister.
Levi looks at Mikasa. "What happened?"
"R-Rin found out." She mumbles.
"What was that?" Levi said leaning into his sister.
"Rin…she found out who we are Levi." Her looks at her brother.
His eyes are wide, his heart beating fast in his chest. "I-Is.." He gulps. "Is she.."
Mikasa shook her head. "I fucked up." She turned around and started walking off.
Levi just stood there. He hasn't even known Eren long yet he was madly in love with him. He felt like if he lost Eren he might lose a piece of himself. How could he feel this way about someone if he's only known him for two months? Yet he knew all of this, he felt it , he dreaded for Eren to ever find out the truth from someone else other than himself and yet some part of him still didn't want to Eren. He knew how fucked up that was. Yet the lie continues on…
