sixth ; y/n & levi

(( if u wanna you should play saturn by sleeping at last (its there ^^ so u can just press it) to spice it up a bit but the first part is kind of an instrumental so if u read fast ,,,, don't ???? (: anw hope u enjoy this chapter ))

another 24 hours had passed.

i feel like i could've said a lot
to you but you're already dying
and i don't want you to feel
any more guilty.

i'm aware you wouldn't be
pleased with that sentence.
you'd rather i tell you now than
keep it to myself forever.

however, that is not how i
want it to go. i don't want the
last things you'll hear me
say to you be now.

"hey levi."

"hm?"

"do you believe in reincarnation?"
i ask, which took you aback.

"no." you say, plain and simple.
you were never one to sugarcoat
your words anyway.

"not unless my next life will be
with you."

that, i didn't expect.

"cheesy."

"is that not the answer
you wanted?"

"it...was-is. just never thought
you'd be the one to say it."

"i have no reason to hold
back as a dying man, y/n."

"i want to tell you everything.
talk to you..while i'm here."

for a second it felt like we
weren't in a hospital.

it felt somewhat like home.

"don't say that."

"i'm sorry."

"what? that you're about to
die?"

"that you had to meet me. if
so, maybe you could've found
someone who wouldn't dare
to leave you so early in life."
you scoffed.

"but i can't imagine loving
someone who isn't you."

then and there, once again,

i saw the glint in your eyes that
once carried the stars.

and i can say with full confidence
that wherever you find yourself in..

i will be there. and i will find my
way to you,

like i always have.

we will be okay.

we'll get married, have children.
live a life where in i can hold you
and gaze at you and kiss you
for as long as i want to.

i will wake up to see the next
sunrise, and you'll be there, beside
me, because you've always been,
and always will be.

even if it isn't now. even
if it isn't in this life.

"i want you to take care of
yourself, okay?" you tell me.

"i'm not sure i can do that."

"please. at least for me."

i looked at him and he looked
at me and i swear, time stopped
for us in that moment.

"can you come over here?"

"i don't know."

"please, y/n, just- let me
tell you goodbye."

"no."

i can't. i cannot do this.

"god- just- will you just
listen for once?!"

"i don't want-i don't want
you to leave me. don't
leave me."

"y/n," you whisper, looking
down at your hands as you sat
up on your bed. "trust me."

but what if i don't want
to let you go?

i walk to you-looking at the
wooden floor the entire time.

"don't say goodbye." i
managed to get out.

"you promised me, right?
that it-"

my voice cracked.

"that it was us.....forever?"

you softly pulled me down and
cupped my cheeks, there were
tears in your eyes and i couldn't
think of anything else but looking
into them one last time, that
won't just be in a picture.

your eyes.

they are silver gray, and they look
best in the sunlight, and when
it sparkles, although very rarely,

i could see the galaxy.

once again, you smiled.

"you have very pretty eyes,
levi ackerman." i say in between
laughs and slight sobs.

"you deserve the world and i'm
sorry i couldn't give it to you-"

before you could continue,
i cut you off.

"rest assured, i can see the world
when i look at your eyes."

i pause before continuing.

"the greatest gift you could
have ever given me was to love
me-and you did. i couldn't
have asked you for anything
else."

you remove your hands from
my cheeks, keeping them by
your side.

"thank you."

this can't be it.

we still have 24 more hours.

your eyes closed.

i looked to your monitor.

one beat, then two, then three.

until there were none.

time of death, 8:32.
