"I don't care how long it takes."

I was atop the wall with Eren, Hange, Levi and a few other Scouts testing Hange's new invention. 'The Executioner From Hell' she called it.

Now, after what happened just a few days ago, I haven't even spoken to Levi about it. And when Eren was consoling me, I didn't even let him in on why I was in tears.

"Tell anyone and I'll cut your Titan into bite sized pieces." Is what I threatened him with. And it worked. I haven't heard a word from him about what happened ever since.

Although, he did spare me sorrowful glances occasionally.

I was currently just spectating as Hange was celebrating after killing a 12 metre class Titan. I, however, couldn't have been more bored. Why was I even here?

"We did it, Eren!" Hange exclaimed, punching the air.

I turned to Eren, who was currently on the floor besides Levi with a bloodied napkin on his nose. I widened my eyes and walked up to the two.

"Eren. Are you okay?" I put both my hands on his shoulders and rotated his body to face mine. Before Eren could answer, Levi spoke for him.

"His body's been overworked from all those hardening experiments." He stood up from his crouched position in front of Eren.

I didn't even spare Levi a glance.

These past couple of days, I've been ignoring him: even when he directly addressed me.

"Oh, I see. I'm sorry, Eren." Hange spoke, butting into the conversation as guilt was sprawled on her face. Knowing her, she was probably oblivious to the pain Eren was going through.

"No, it's fine. As long as we're killing Titans, I'm fine. Let's just hurry and make weapons so we can head straight for Shiganshina." Eren consoled the brunette, his attention still fixated on the blood red napkin on his face.

I stood up and gave Eren my hand so that he'd be able to get up.

I brushed my knees and sighed.

"Speaking of weapons, after we received the weapon documents the interior police were hiding, I'm gonna go develop one of them. I have a feeling it'll help us big time." I pushed my hair back slightly and walked towards the edge of the wall.
