Your Pov
~~A few weeks later~~
"I can't believe you've made it." My dad said to me while I looked in the mirror in my cap and gown.
"You and me both." I smiled back at him, "Although, this stupid cast is stupid." I said gesturing to my still broken arm.
"You have about two more weeks till you can take it off," He said with a smile holding the camera.
"Dad, please no more pictures."
"There never enough pictures," He said taking more.
I sighed, "I have to get going, Jean and Marco will be here any minute."
Just then I heard a car beep outside, "See that's them."
"Well, tell them to come in I need pictures of them too." He said smiling.
"Uggggh, I groaned walking out the door. "My dad wants to harass you guys get in here," I yelled at them. I turned back to my dad, "They're coming."
My dad just looked at me plainly. I smiled sweetly at him.
It took them a minute, but they walked in.
"Hello Mr. L/n," Marco said walking in.
"Hello, boys," My dad said hugging them both. "You guys excited?"
"No doubt, I'm just ready for this whole thing to be done already," Jean said stressing.
"Same here. I think I officially had enough with Highschool," I added.
"Well, I won't hold you. You guys come in close." My dad told us he said taking more pictures.
It was a while, and I think he had to take at least a million, but I had finally had enough, "Okay dad!"
My dad smiled and put down the camera, and I could see the tears gathering in his eyes, Oh God, "Your mother would be very proud of the woman you've become F/n." he said.
I looked away from him. If I didn't I would start crying and ruin my make up, "I hope so."
"I'm sure she would be," Marco said hugging me. Then I felt my dad get in the hug too.
"Seriously?" Jean said. "A group hug? When did we all become friends like this?"
"If I'm in it bring your ass over here Kirstein," I told him, and he joined us.
"Language," My dad warned me.
"I'm an adult."
"Not yet your not." He said.
I just rolled my eyes, "We have to go." We all started to head out the door, but my dad told us to wait.
"Daaaad," I whined, what else could he need.
"I don't mean to dampen the mood or anything, but I avoided for long enough...but I have to know," He asked looking at all of us.
I frowned, what was he talking about? "Yeah? What's up?"
"I was doing some reading...And I was just wondering...I'm not judging any of you, but I want to know." He was studdering.
"Would you spit it out already?" I asked shaking my head.
My dad paused for a moment, "Do you know who the father would have been F/n," My dad had asked out of the blue. I was shocked for a moment. I didn't think he would ask that question now of all time. I had been waiting for him to ask. I had no idea what I would tell him, but now I was even more lost for words.
It was silent for a moment but Jean cleared his throat, "It might have been mine."
I snapped my head at him. What?
Marco shifted on his feet, "Or mine?" He said in more of a question than an answer.
I was staring in confusion between the both of them. What the actual fuck were they thinking.
"I thought so," My dad said. I snapped my head staring at him, Seriously? I could scream.
"You guys are in on of those um..lolly...I forgot the word."
"Poly relationship." Marco corrected him.
I was in internal screaming hell.
"I'm not judging you guys; I kinda figured something like that was going on when you all went to prom together. But, can you guys just be careful that is my little girl." My dad said awkwardly not looking at any of us.
"Alright!" I yelled this was enough of this. "We are leaving!" I pushed Jean and Marco out the door, but my dad called for me again for like the fifth fucking time, What the hell could he want! "If I am late to graduation I will be so mad dad!"
"I love you."
I let go of the breath I was holding, "I love you too dad..." I had been thinking about something and I think now would be a good time to tell him, "Um...I know you've still been seeing Candice, you are terrible at keeping secrets."
My dad just looked away guilty.
"But if she wants to come to graduation with you...she can...You deserve to be happy too, and if she does that for you...then that should be enough for me...And it's okay that she's younger than you I guess...I mean...Age gaps can't be all that bad."
"Thank you F/n," My dad said smiling.
I just smiled back and left out closing the door behind me. I had meant to tell him that for a while. Before all, I had really wanted was for him to just pay attention to me for a minute. And in the last month, he had been doing that. Now I know it's not going to be much longer than I'm staying with him; I guess I just want someone there with him...And since he likes Candice so much, and she seems to like him just the same. It would be alright. Plus, I was being kind of a hypocrite with the whole age gap thing now. After all, Levi wasn't right there in same age wise with me.
I got into the backseat in Jean's car, but I sat up so I could look at both of them, "Seriously? We've been having threesomes? Was that the best you guys would do?" I wasn't over that; I think part of my soul was still screaming that they just told my fucking dad that we've been sleeping together.
"It was either that or tell him you were fucking your teacher," Jean said pulling off.
"Yeah, but still? With you guy?" I said laughing.
"On the bright side, he believed it," Marco said laughing.
Well, they had a point. "Thanks, I guess."
"Yeah, but you owe us one." Jean teased. "Now sit back we got a graduation to get too!"
Then we all cheered.
Today was it!
Levi Pov
"Are you sure you have to leave right after it?" My mother asked.
"Tch, Yeah," I said leaning against the wall.
I just heard her hum to herself, "Mikasa turn the other way now," She told Mikasa in her cap and gown.
I laughed to myself; she did this to me when I graduated too. My mother she just loved taking pictures.
"Mother, please," Mikasa said clearly getting tried.
"Oh, Eren get in this one now." She said to Mikasa's boyfriend who looked just as tired as Mikasa.
"Levi you get in one." She said trying to pull me in on.
"It's not my big day," I said not moving.
She just huffed. "Alright. Then, Levi, you get in one with Mikasa and Me, Eren you take it."
I rolled my eyes, "Fine." We all posed for the small family picture.
"Can that please be enough?" Makasa said, "We will be late."
My mother smiled at her, "How did I get such delightful picture hating children? Fine, I'll see you and Eren after the ceremony."
The boy went ahead and left, but Mikasa stopped and looked at me, "Are you sure you won't come?"
"I'll be there I just won't be in the stadium. I don't want to be in the crowd when it's over I just want to get right on the road," I answered her.
"I'll miss you jerk," she said rolling her eyes leaving.
"I'll miss you too Brat. You better do good in college," I called after her, while she started to walk out the door
My mother closed the door, "You two are so weird. I'll never get it."
I shrugged, "It's a brother and sister thing."
"And yet your uncle and I did no such thing."
"I'll give you a ride there."
"It's a shame you won't sit with me," she said.
"I know it's such a drag."
She shook her head, "Do you have to leave?"
"I told you this town is a drag right now; I need some change."
My mother had this sad look on her face. "I promise I'll visit in the holidays."
"Fine. We should get going." She said moving to get her shoes.
I just did the same; it was time to get this over with.
The other reason was that I didn't want F/n to see me. We ended things last mouth. It hurt, but we both knew we had to do it. She'll be a lot better without me. And I'll manage without her. I did it before, granted I had Petra then, but I know I can do things on my own. This whole town wasn't good for me anymore, at least not right now. It just reminded me of a lot of bad things. So I'm going to move on for a while. I needed to do something with my life; I was still young despite F/n's favorite nickname for me. I should do more with my life right now.
But before I go, it wanted to see Mikasa graduate and talk to Erwin and Hanji...And if I could just get a glimpse of F/n It would make today Perfect.
~~Later~~
I didn't take us long to get long to get to the school.
My mother went ahead to go to her seats. I went to the area I knew the teachers would be.
I think it would only be decent I'd say goodbye to Erwin and Hanji. They other then Mike were my only friends down here.
I was on my way there when I heard a familiar voice call my same.
Shit. She wasn't supposed to see me.
I turned around and saw Petra, standing there with a man.
"What are you doing here?" She asked me.
I put my hand in my pocket. "I'm just here because I want to see Erwin and Hanji. Not to mention my sister is graduating." I didn't want to see her. But now I don't see why I was so worried. I thought seeing her would make me angry, but no. I didn't feel anything. But it did pain me to feel that way.
"Oh, well." I saw her an uncomfortable expression cross her face, "It's good to see you."
"Sure it is. Is this the guy you were with?" I asked nodding to the man looking nervous next to her. He was taller than me and had two shades of hair color.
"Yes." She said in a whisper, I just nodded and walked up to him.
The man seemed so scared I almost started laughing. The man was a wimp. She left me for him? Maybe he's acting this way because he knows how wrong he is, and that I should be beating his ass right now, But hey maybe that's what she was missing, and he just does it for her. I put my hand on his shoulder, "Take care of her. She can be hard to please, but if you do it right and she loves you it's a love you want to hold on too."
Then I kept on my way to Erwin and Hanji.
I said all I needed to them.
I didn't take me long after that to get to where Erwin was, and the man looked panicked.
"Busy as ever I see," I told him.
He stopped for a minute. "Levi! great you're here please help me."
I shook my head, "Tch, I'm not a teacher anymore Erwin I know I told you that."
"Which you still decided not to tell me why," He said still doing his work.
"I just came here to say, bye before I leave town. Where is four-eyes?" I asked him.
"She's in the room with the students getting them ready; you can say bye to her in there," He answered.
"Tch, to much hassle, as usual, tell her I said bye to for me," I told him turning to leave.
"Levi!" Erwin called after me."You sure you don't want to stay?"
"I have nothing left for me here, just take care of your students, you're almost up the latter to being the principle," I waved him off leaving.
Bye, the time I got to my car on I heard the music and started seeing the students walk out the school to their outside chairs. It wasn't lousy view up here. I couldn't make them out, but I guess this would have to do.
I could hear everything well enough back her, so I guess that was fine. It was a nice ceremony. The speech that little blond boy that always hangs with Mikasa had was nice the girl that won Prom queen had a pleasant voice for singing the national anthem was sweet. I heard them call Mikasa's name and I watched her get up and get her diploma. I'm proud of her. I even heard them say her little boyfriend's name.
And then I heard F/n's name called out.
She stood out because of the cast on her arm. But I think without it I could point out that glowing smile anywhere.
She did it.
When she got on the stage and took her diploma and waved out and blew the crowd a kiss with her good hand. I shook my head rolling my eyes. F/n always so dramatic. I got in my car and started it up.
I miss her already.
God, I love her.
I always will love that girl.
Your Pov
It was Over!
Caps had been thrown into the air, and now we were trying to find out families in the storms of people.
I saw Annie while I was looking for my dad and I couldn't help but run to her and hug her, "We did it!"
"It's over!"
"And now for the real fun!" Someone said as I felt us being picked up.
"Ouch!" I yelped out. They touched my arm a little too tight.
"Shit, I'm sorry F/n." Reiner put me down.
I rubbed my arm, "It's fine," I smiled at him, "We did it, big guy,"
"Finally," he said relieved.
"I'll catch up with the two of you later," Annie said smiling and walking away.
"Yeah, I should be looking for my dad," I told Reiner. She just smiled and waved me off. I guess that's means were cool again.
I smiled to myself everything today had gone perfectly today.
I even got to see him...
Mikasa was talking and said he wasn't going to be here, but he was going to be in parking lot. So when I took the stage, I looked for him as fast as I could, and thankfully I spotted him next to his car watching the whole thing. He may not know it, but I blew out that kiss for him; I hope it reached him.
I know right now we can't be together...But someday; I can only hope and pray for right now, but I think someday we'll cross paths again. And when that happens we can finally be together again. Until then, I'll just keep on living, I know that's what he would want me to do. But he won't ever be far from my thoughts after all he gave me some of the best days of my life. And because of that,
I'll love Levi forever.
The End
