Y/N POV
I woke feeling an immense pain on my head.

My eyes quickly looked at my surroundings. A different room from the one before. Dark room with dark wooden walls and no windows.

"Levi." I tried to sit up but the handouts around my wrists prevented me.

"Wow you're a heavy sleeper." Levi came out of what I assumed was a restroom. Toothbrush on his mouth as he continued to brush his teeth in almost an obsessive manner.

"Where are we?" My eyes scanned the wooden walls. Empty of any picture frame or clock. The only indicator that it was daylight was the rays of sun peeking through the bottom of the bedroom door. I assumed the living room.

He ignored me by closing the bathroom door. The sound of the shower running was his response.

"You didn't actually think I would keep you in the headquarters after you threw your temper tantrum in the women's bathrooms." He came out of the shower and started to change to his uniform. "Because if you did, you're dumber than I thought."
Levi turned to look at me and smirked as we made eye contact.
"Like what you see ?" He found it amusing that he caught me staring at him while he changed.

I quickly looked away feeling sick to my stomach.

"See you after work, my love." Levi finished changing into his uniform and walked out of the bedroom.

"Levi wait! Don't leave me here." I begged trying to free myself from my handcuffs. "Please don't leave. I'm scared." I made out whatever lie that came to mind as an attempt to keep him here. But regardless of my cries and pathetic attempts, he locked the bedroom door from the outside and left me alone.

After what seemed hours I heard footsteps approaching the bedroom I was in.

"Y/N??" I instantly recognized Armin's voice and sat up on the bed, ignoring the pain on my wrists because the adrenaline rush was higher than the pain.

"I'm here!!" And the door opened.

"Y/N. It's me." But he didn't have to identify himself. The light blonde hair that seemed as pretty as the sun rays and his light blue eyes made my day. I wasn't here alone. My eyes analyzed him. He wasn't wearing his uniform like the last time I saw him, and there were no traces of blood despite the pool of blood I saw in Levi's room.

"Armin are you hurt?? Levi.... H-He's gone. He handcuffed me." I managed to say wanting to cry.

Armin quickly nodded as if he already knew of my situation and had come to terms with it. However, he didn't answer my question.

Armin entered the room hesitantly, but quickly gathered the courage to begin to look for something. He went from the restroom to sitting on the floor scanning the drawers until he found a small silver key.

"Let me try." He mumbled to himself as he reached for the handcuffs and released my now purple wrists.

"Thank you." I wasn't sure if I said it out loud or mumbled to myself. All I knew was that we were both up on our feet and rushing out of the bedroom.

Exiting the bedroom I was greeted by a vacant, barely lit up room. There were only two windows in the house, and they were boarded up from the outside and inside and the faint sun rays coming from the boarded up gaps were the only source of light.

The front door was between the only two windows in the house. It was big had 7 locks along the edge. To prevent anyone from coming in.

"It's locked!" I frantically tried to open the door knob.

My eyes met with Armin's who was standing next in front of one of the boarded up windows. His hands on the metal bars keeping everyone from the outside from breaking in....and the people inside to break out.

"Y/N...." He began and I couldn't bear the look at his eyes. So helpless. About to give up hope.

"We're going to die here!" I dropped to my knees and began crying.

"No Y/N! Don't say that. I won't let Captain Levi hurt you!" Armin got on his knees next to me and held me in his arms. His embrace didn't last long as he quickly got up to his feet and walked to what seemed to be the kitchen.
He tried opening the wooden kitchen drawers and cabinets. "There must be some kind of knife or weapon that we can use to defend you from him."

Still on my knees I watched him desperately attempt to pull them open but to no avail. "They're all locked," and he began mumbling under his breath.

"I'm sorry this is all my fault." I apologized as I got on my feet and tried the front door knob again. Still locked. "This is all my fault. You had nothing to do with this."

"Don't blame yourself, Y/N. I care for you. I'll get you out of here."

Armin then walked in front of one of the boarded up windows. His face pressed against the metal bars preventing us from kicking it open. Small rays of sunshine peeking through the gaps made him squint his eyes. "The sun rays.... They're going down. Captain Levi will be here any minute."

Panic began to overfill me. "W-What should w-we do?" I began stuttering.

"Let's go back to where he left us. He has a weapon and we don't. Not yet." Armin suggested and I nodded because at this moment I couldn't think for myself. I could not imagine us ever confronting Levi. The thought made me sick to my stomach due to fear.

Armin sat on the bedroom's bed, his eyes revealing a deep sadness as he took the handcuffs in his hands. Analyzing them and the key.
I walked to the bathroom and sat on the toilet and began crying. There were no walls on the bedroom or bathroom. The only way to escape this house was through the front door. I couldn't believe this happened to me. I was so dumb. Why did I even run out of my house that night.

"Are you okay?" Armin asked as I exited the bathroom. There was no doubt in my mind that he had heard me crying.

"I'm fine." I forced a smile. He lay me down on the bed in the same position I was in before and put the handcuffs on me.

"I think this is a spare key." Armin examined the handcuff's key one last time before putting it back where he found it. "I will leave it here so he doesn't suspect. Next time he leaves I will free you again."

"I understand."

"Y/N. Try to gain his trust. And when he least expects it, we'll escape." Armin placed his hand on my thigh as a way to bring comfort to me. "You'll get out of here."

"We will get out of here Armin." I emphasized the we, even though I felt like we wouldn't.

Armin smiled. "I need to go back to where he has me. So he doesn't know that I came to you." He began to walk away from me. Leaving me alone in the bedroom once again.
