Serve Me Royal

(눈_눈)

The castle was decently calm today. The servants were bustling about doing their daily chores. Everything was according to schedule. The king and queen, Grisha Jaeger and Carla Jaeger, were a happy couple with only one, treasured and very handsome son. His name is Eren Jaeger. They loved their son with every fiber of their being and that didn't change even when he came out as gay. They were happy with their son and they wished for their son to be happy as well. Thus, if their son wanted to be gay, so be it.

The Jaeger's were a powerful force, though did not have many enemies but had many allies. They had a glorious kingdom filled with many who supported it. The king, Grisha was a fair king who dealt with issues using a level head and his natural smarts. He has many loyal followers. The queen, Carla was wonderful queen who supported the king. She is very graceful in everything she does. And let's not overlook the unforgettable prince, Eren was a charmer who got almost everything he wanted. And no, surprisingly the prince didn't act spoiled. The prince was known for being outgoing and being very stubborn.

His parents questioned his sexuality when he came out. They wondered how Eren could come up with such a conclusion. Well the answer they received was short and settle. Eren simply stated that he did not find women attractive and that men appealed to him. When he came out, he had just left the ball of his 16th birthday party. Yes, people were allowed to come in but Eren wasn't allowed out. He was beginning to think that the only way he could go outside the walls was to… Be betroth to someone… A male presumably. Though as of right now… Eren had no interest of marriage. He didn't feel ready.

It was a wonder that when Eren turned 18 that he requested his own servant. At first his parents questioned it but after Eren had made the point that his parents had several personal servants they could not decline his request. Eren's other reason was because, not that he'd tell his parents, he wished and longed for a companion to be with. He just simply wanted company. As nice as his parents were, Eren's parents forbid him to leave the castle's walls. So all he really had to talk to was his parents and his regular servants. And that, my friend, was a small and lonely world for a teenage boy.

So here he was. Eren smiled as he was greeted by a noble lady by the name of Hanji. He and his parents followed this spontaneous woman to a different chamber of the castle where servants would be waiting. Out of twenty people Eren had to pick one servant. Just one. It shouldn't be too hard, right? But Eren wanted to be picky. He didn't want just any servant. In fact, as a result of him being picky, this batch of servants was the fifth batch this week. Yes, that's right, the fifth. He had seen over one hundred different servants and none of which made the cut. He really did hope to change that today. So when he walked into the huge chamber he immediately started to dismiss servants. "I would like all female servants to please leave." He wanted a male servant. When would that crazy woman learn?

"Darling." He heard his mother, Carla, call to him. "Perhaps you should be open minded a little and lower your standards slightly?" She wasn't forcing Eren to do as she said, she merely was suggesting. For the queen didn't have the heart to say no to her beloved child, yet she would discipline him if it was needed.

Eren smiled sweetly to his mother. "I know that I am being very picky mother. I just…" He sighed softly as he thought about the right words to say. "Would like to make sure I don't regret my choice. And I am willing to continue this trail until my expectations are met." He said stubbornly.

There was a chuckle from Grisha as he wound his arm with his wife's. "I trust you, my son, to make the right choice. Now I do believe that your mother and I have some business to attend to. If you need us, "Grisha smiled, "You know where to find us."

"And if you choose one, please do tell us." Carla added as they were leaving.

Now that they were gone, Eren was left with the servants and Hanji. Eren counted the people left and… So far only six were gone. Thirteen to go… Hopefully. Eren thought as walked passed each and every servant. "Okay…" Eren thought for a moment. "If you're older than forty and younger than eighteen, then would you please leave?" Eren smiled as he watched the majority of the group vanish. He was shocked to see that only four people remained. Eren started at the beginning of the line, examining the first male closely. He was tall with brown hair. Nice… The next guy was about as tall with blonde hair. Very good… The next male was… Eren had to look down to a man who was short than him. He had black hair that was evenly parted… And his eyes were… Eren shook himself mentally. He internally was very excited. Another potential candidate! Eren didn't even mind his height. Eren continued to the last person. He was tall like the first two males with slicked back blond hair and striking blue eyes. Oh… No… I can't decide. Eren quickly did a once over. He then asked a bold question. "How many virgins do I have left? If you are not then please leave." To Eren's amazement only two left… Leaving two behind. The two that were left were non other that the shorter, black haired man and the much taller, slick back blond haired man. Now... Let's see if either are worthy… "And what might your name be?" Eren said to the taller man.

"Erwin, my prince." Eren looked up at Erwin. He seemed to be very well built. He probably could handle any task that Eren told him to do.

Eren smiled and nodded. He then turned to the shorter man, "And you?"

"Levi." He said simply. But… Oh… Eren didn't expect his voice to be that deep. And upon further observation Eren could tell, that despite his height, he was well built too. What a lovely surprise! Both men appeared to be of a youthful age. In their twenties maybe? He beckoned the noble lady over. "Hanji… Could you perhaps persuade my decision?"

"Certainly, my prince!" She smiled as she clasped her hands together. "But, if I may suggest that you direct any questions to them. Then, perchance you may find what you're looking for sooner?"

Eren hummed in agreement. "Yeah. That does seem fair." He brought a hand up his chin, he thought about what he should say or ask Erwin and Levi. "How about something easy? What do you like doing?" He directed the question to Erwin first. He answered promptly, listing quite a few things, yet limiting what he said so he didn't talk on forever. Then when Eren directed the question to Levi… His answer wasn't as diverse.

"I like to clean." Levi stated. "And I'm really good at it too." Levi didn't seem enthused about anything. He was emotionless this whole time. He… not once had addressed Eren as the prince or of any authority for that matter. He was very daring. But… It was something that made Eren interested. He had never had anyone talk to him in such a blunt tone. Usually people were courteous talking to him but with Levi… Or at least right now it seemed that he wasn't even trying.

"Do you always talk like this to everyone?" Eren inquired.

Again Levi's answer was simple. He nodded. "Yes." And after pausing a quick second he added. "I will not try to impress you. If you do not like me, then you do not have to pick me right?"

"Levi! You can't-" Hanji gasped as she made her way to Levi.

"No, no… Its fine, Hanji." Eren waved for her to step back. He tilted his head in amusement. "It's the truth." He looked Levi in the eyes. Levi stared right back. "Hanji. I think I've made my choice."

"What?" She looked at Eren wide eyed. "I mean, you did? Which servant have you chosen, my prince?"

"I would like to take Levi with me." Eren said excitedly. He had been waiting for this moment. He had finally gotten a servant of his own! Levi's expression had changed for a moment. He revealed that he was slightly surprised that Eren had picked him. And yes, Eren was kind of surprised as well. Erwin was a really good choice… but he was almost too good of a choice. Unlike Levi, he was trying hard to get the job. Levi was different and Eren couldn't put his finger on it yet… All he knew is that he liked Levi so far. He wondered who things would work out. It's too early to know. "How do you feel about that, Levi?"

"Surprised." Levi shrugged indifferently.

Eren's brows furrowed, "What? Did you not wish to be picked?"

Levi shook his head. "No. It's not that. You asked how I felt about being chosen and I answered honestly. And if you don't like that, then you shouldn't have picked me…"

It was quiet for a moment before Eren replied to Levi's blunt answer. "I'm sure I've made the right decision, Levi." And then he smiled. "And I'm glad you've decided to be honest with me. So keep doing that. No matter how blunt."

Something flashed in Levi's eyes and a small smirk played on his lips, "I'm going to hold you to that, my prince."

"Oh please, call me Eren."

"As you wish, Eren."
