I want to thank everyone for checking in on me. I really appreciate it more than I can say. Things have just been really really busy and overwhelming. I know a lot of people have been scared I'm going to drop the story or leave it unfinished. I want to assure to all of you I will not do that. I will finish all my stories even though I might take a break from them please know I will always come back and finish them. The only reason I would ever not complete a story is if there's a really really really serious situation and I'm unable to. I know how it feels to love a story and for the author to drop it out of nowhere without an explanation. So far there's only one story that I have not updated in awhile and honestly that was due to harassment and bullying. Thank you all for being so supportive and caring and I can't wait to get this wrapped up so I can get part two posted.

Brown and sea foam eyes stared at one another for quiet a few moments as each person attempted to gather their thoughts. With a soft sigh Hanji broke eye contact first and sat back in their chair. They brought their hand up to take off their glasses while the other massaged the bridge of their nose.

" Princess, you scared the living fuck out of us. We seriously thought we were gonna loose you." They said.

Eren watched them quietly waiting for them to continue,No words came. He was ready to apologize when he noticed their shoulders shaking then slowly, short choked inhales followed. The brunette quickly shot forward and grabbed Hanjis hand squeezing it. Before he could say any consoling words Hanji was sobbing out their hearts pain.

" I almost lost you my baby. I almost wasn't able to save you!" Hanji cried out quietly still trying to keep quiet as to not wake Levi up. " I did everything and you still left us for a moment, but you didn't you came back."

Eren sat their stunned not understanding what they were talking about. He had been fine, sure he hurt like hell and it hurt to breath but he was fine. How did he go from fine to DEAD! He continued to squeeze Hanjis hand as he thought of anthing that made sense of the situation. He hadn't been shot, he only got the fuck stomped out of him by Grisha. He's had plenty of beatings growing up. It was all part of being bullied, and that doesn't lead to death. He was so caught up in his own scattered thoughts he hadn't noticed Hanji was now calm and watching him.

" Eren?" Seafoam eyes quickly snapped up in surprise. As if he was a deer caught in a trucks head lights.

" What happened? I don't understand I was fine, a little sore, but fine." He asked bewildered. Hanjis chocolate eyes softened and a sad smile formed on their lips.

" The fact that you thought that really worries me Eren. You were anything but fine." Eren opened his mouth to argue but Hanji raised a hand to silence him. " Your skull was fractured, with a slight bleed that luckily didn't come in contact with your brain. Two broke ribs, one of witch punctured your lung. You had bleeding in your stomach, and your kidneys were so bruised and swollen we had to cath you for two weeks. You passed out due to all the internal bleeding. Your left lung filled with blood, I don't know how you were able to stand and talk for as long as you did." They finished with a blank look. Eren flinched at the empty emotionless eyes. He could deal with anger or sadness from Hanji, but this empty gaze, that truly scared him.

" Why wouldn't anyone want to tell me that? I would have easily found out, I mean, it is my body I kinda have to live in it." Eren joked with a laugh hoping to get the aburned haired woman to lighten up. When he looked back at them he found that he had failed and they seemed even more ridged. They ground their teeth together as they began talking.

" That's not what I was worried they wouldn't tell you. It's something else and way more serious." They paused as they put their glasses back on and leaned forward resting their elbows on their knees.

" Please know they weren't considering not telling you because they thought you weren't able to handle it, or thought you were a kid. It's because we are all worried about you and your health. I need you to promise me you'll stay calm and continue to focus on getting better." The stern look Hanji gave him made him shiver. Their was no room for argument and he could tell that if he did she would hide everything from him.

" I promise Hanji I'll stay put until I'm better. Please tell me what's going on. Also how long have I been out for?" Eren asked looking around like he could find the answer hanging on the wall.

" You been unconscious for three weeks." At that Erens head whipped around eyes blown wide. Hanji held their hand up again. " Let me get this done with before you ask questions." Eren nodded in understanding mind still reeling from the information.

" A lot has happened since you been out. The most important being Zackly and Grisha got away from Pixs. Apparently Zackly had planned for something like that to happen and had an ambush ready. During the attack Pixis and...... Armin were severely hurt." Hanji stopped and glared when Eren started to kick his covers off of his legs. He spun to the side trying to throw his legs over the side of the bed but was stopped by Hanji.

" Damnit you promised Eren! Stay the fuck in bed!" They yelled. Eren froze in shock and fear, his eyes slightly watering. They had never raised their voice at him, even in a joking manner. A tear slipped down his cheek as he sat there frozen. Hanjis eyes widened and they quickly gathered the teen in their arms and rocked him back and forth.

" I'm sorry for yelling at you my baby, but you promised you'd rest. You can't get up you'll hurt yourself. This is why the others didn't want to tell you, and now I'm starting to agree with them." They sighed in frustration. Erens shoulders shook as he cried and wrapped his arms around the other.

" No, I need to be sorry I did promise and I didn't listen. Please don't hide things from me I promise I'll listen just please don't leave me in the dark. I hate it so much." He whimpered still clinging to the other.

" What the hell is going on!"

Eren felt Hanji stiffen before he felt two hands grab him from behind and spin him back around to lay him in the bed properly. Before he could register who exactly it was he had his covers already wrapped back around him and a hand pressed against his cheek.

" Bright eyes are you ok?! What did shit for brains do to you?! Are you hurt anywhere?!"

Silver eyes frantically searched his face for any signs of pain as big hands worked on searching his body. Eren only stared dumbfounded at the tired raven fussing over him in a panicked state. When Levi found no signs of pain anywhere his tiered silver orbs met watery seafoam gems. Before the raven could speak his arms were full of a sobbing brunette clinging to him like his life depended on it. The same four words being repeated over and over.

" It wasn't your fault"

Levi's eyes widened as he realized what Eren was talking about. He had remembered what Levi had said while he was in a panic when Eren woke up. He brought his strong arms around the smaller male and held him tightly while also making sure not to hurts his ribs. He looked up when he saw movement and met Hanjis worn eyes staring at him. When they averted their eyes from him he glared. They had done something they weren't supposed to and he was sure he knew what it was.
