I find myself getting easily distracted today.

Odd.

Well, let's see what I can do for ya today.

Enjoy...

I limped as fast as I could, using the wall to help support me. I had been in one of the third floor rooms a moment earlier. Yes, in fact a lot can happen in one moment.

I had been minding my own business. I had just changed out of my clothes into warmer ones, since it was nightfall and I had to sleep in the cells in the lower part of the castle. No one goes to the third floor much so I decided it would be empty and went to go change. I found a nice room and went in to change. It was actually quite hot in the room. I walked over to the window and pushed it open. No sooner had I done that, someone came into the room. I turned around to see my father. He was wearing a plain shirt and baggy brown pants.

"What do you want?" I groaned dropping my clothes on the floor and leaning against the wall. A small amount of light was still there, allowing me to see.

"I wanted to talk to my daughter." He told me innocently. He walked over and took a seat in a chair in the corner of the room.

"I'd prefer not." I retorted. "Now if you'd please leave, I need to change." He didn't budge.

"Why are you being so cold towards me?" He asked, his eyes being hidden by his overgrown bangs. I waited for a moment.

"I loved you, but when I left... I gave up on being your family. I wanted a new start, the only way to do that was to forget about you and the name you had given me. I'm being cold because despite my efforts, you kept closing me in more and more. I am my own person now. You should forget about me and just go be with your sister. I've known you my whole life, but you need to be with Hange. She's missed you more then anyone else. Not once did I regret my choice and you should respect that." I told them, my voice even and steady the entire time.

"Well..." He slapped his thighs and stood up staring down at me from across the room. "Now that we've cleaned the air why don't you and I talk." He walked forward and placed a hand on my shoulder. "You need to get married soon. Your at a perfect age to give birth to strong, healthy kids." I was shocked for a moment.

"Okay... Ummmm... How about you shut up now before I beat you up?" I offered kindly. He took the hand off my shoulder and took a step back.

"No, we need to talk about this. You deserve a family. Your like your mother, family is everything. Now I suggest you settle down and have a couple kids. I'm old, I want grand kids to tell stories to." My mouth gaped open.

"Are you serious? Your like forty-five! What the hell are you talking about?! I don't plan on getting married because I don't want to. I am too young to have kids! You and mom were twenty-five when you had me! Drop the subject, NOW." I growled.

"Now, you don't know what would happen to you in five years. You could be killed, or worse. So-"

"I just realized. Your doing all this because of my genetics aren't you? I'm half Titan and you wanna see what my kids would be. Well, news flash! You gotta wait ten or so years. I'm not getting married and having kids for one of your crazy experiments. Now, I'm gonna go." I said, pushing past him. He grabbed my arm. I turned and glared at him.

"You can't leave until after we have finished our talk." He growled.

"Or really? Watch me." I pulled my arm away and continued to stop away. I hadn't gotten far before he grabbed my arm and threw me back into the room.

"Good luck getting by me." He declared, his tall figure blocking most of the door. I wouldn't be able to pass him easily. I couldn't hurt him, he was still my father whether I liked it or not. The only way out was... The window! I stood up straight and gave him s hand to the forehead salute before I spun around and jumped out the window. I tumbled towards the ground, watching as it closed in on me. I landed with a thud and a large crack coming from my left thigh. I looked up to see my father. He was staring out the window down at me. Once he disappeared I stood up and limped towards the nearest door.

I pushed open the two wooden doors to see Levi and Eren sitting at the nearest table. Eren sat on the opposite end of the table from Levi, who was drinking a cup of tea. They both looked over at me and a silence covered the room. I creak, and thuds came from off to my right. A staircase sat there echoing the sounds of my father's running. I limped over and hid at Eren's feet, hiding under the table out of clear view.

"Cadet Lily, what are you doing?" Commander Levi groaned.

"My eccentric father who doesn't know when to stop is after me." I replied.

"Then why in hell are you under the table?" He asked, annoyed.

"I'm hiding because he doesn't deserve to talk to me." There was a pause. The thuds from above got closer and closer.

"What did you two talk about that was so bad?" Eren asked curiously.

"Marriage, and having kids." I stated. A longer silence followed, this one full of tension.

"Lily, you have my permission to stay under the table." Levi stated. A minute later my father came pounding down the stairs.

"Have either of you seen my daughter come through here?" He huffed.

"No, now go back to your cell. We'll find Lily soon." Levi commanded. I heard my father huff in reply before he stomped off down another set of stairs to the cells. I crawled out from under the table and took a seat across from Eren.

"You have one minute to explain the limp, or you have to get me more tea." Levi ordered me, the once silent room being shattered.

"I was on the third floor when my dad found me and 'talked' to me. He wouldn't let me leave out of the door so my only chance was to jump out the window so he wouldn't catch me. Once I landed on the ground I probably broke a bone in my left thigh." I stated, in less then a minute.

"You jumped out a third floor window?" Eren asked, slightly astonished.

"Yeah. What you guys see as a possible 'death only' path I see as a broken arm, leg, you know that sort of thing." I told him, shrugging.

"I didn't like your answer, go get me more tea." He slid his cup towards me. I grabbed it before it fell off the table. I grumbled as I hopped on one leg towards the kitchen. One candle was lit so I used it to start a small fire and started boiling water. Once it was decent I used some tea leaves and poured the final product into his cup. I then shakily hopped back over and gave him the cup. He took a sip and grunted.

"Don't like it, well it's not my fault you asked for tea from someone like me." I told him. I then hopped over to the nearest seat, farthest from Levi. A silence grew between everyone. It wasn't long before Levi spoke up.

"Eren get some sleep, we leave tomorrow." Levi declared looking directly at Eren, his gaze then fell on mine and I turned away. "You do the same. We'll find a doctor for that stupid leg of yours." I watched as he got up and walked away, up the stairs, to his room.

"What exactly is my role in Erwin's plan?" I asked turning to Eren.

"Your gonna be in the cart with 'Eren' and your father." I groaned and let my head fall to the table. There was silence before Eren got up to go to the cells.

"Can you please help me?" I whimpered, the pain in my leg finally hitting me.

"Sure." He laughed before hooking my arm around his neck and helping, actually he was lifting me off the ground with our height difference, me down the stairs to the cells. He closed the door behind me and I hoped to my bed. I laid over the overs and took a deep breathe before closing my eyes.

"Can you consider m-"

"Shut up before I beat you." I growled to my father.

"... Love you..." He continued awkwardly. I knew he was trying so hard, so I gave the dog a bone.

"I love you too... Dad."

How was that?

A preview of their family life. I kind of find it harsh, but it works.

Please review, I really need them.

The next chapter is probably the final chapter... Until season 2 comes out.

Thanks for reading.
