Save Me (Ereri)

Chapter Ten: Enough

Levi's POV:

I slowly opened my eyes to see Hange sitting in one of my office chairs. She was holding some of the papers that were originally on my desk.

Swinging my feet down onto the floor, I sighed.

"You didn't knock," I said.

"I did," she replied, "you just didn't answer. You were up all night staring at that map, weren't you?"

I nodded then stood up. I walked around and snatched the papers out of her hands then dropped them on the desk.

"Do you need something?" I asked.

Frowning, she said, "I just thought you'd want to hear some good news."

"What is it?" I blurted out.

"Well," she began, "I was looking through some books and I found an old map. There's a castle on it that isn't on the map we have. It's a few miles from where Eren was taken."

I stood there with a blank expression.

If Eren was at that castle, then we could rescue him. But if he wasn't, then where could he possibly be?

"Hey," said Hange standing up, "you okay?"

She placed a hand on my shoulder and gave me a worried look.

"I'm fine," I replied, "make sure everyone is ready. We will leave in thirty minutes."

"Aye aye captain!" she exclaimed.

She gave me a quick wink then marched out of the room. After she shut the door, I plopped down on the chair and let a tear roll down my cheek.

Eren better be alive.

Eren's POV:

Kieran jumped on top of me and moved his face forwards untill it was millimeters from mine.

"Ya just gotta cause me trouble, don't ya? Try to get away again and I'll really hurt ya," he threatened, "so don't do anythin stupid!"

I bit my quivering lip and looked down to the side.

He grabbed my shoulder and smacked my face hard.

"Ahh!" I cried out.

Blood dripped from my bottom lip as I gently placed a hand on my stinging cheek.

"Tell me that you understand," he demanded.

"I-I-I understand!" I sobbed.

Kieran wiped away my tears and then licked up the blood that had dripped down my mouth.

"Don't cry Eren," he said coldly.

Despite his words, I continued to sob.

I couldn't take this anymore. The pain I felt everyday was unbearable.

The actual pain, and the pain I felt just being away from everyone that I loved.

I wanted to die.

"Just kill me," I whispered.

Kieran scooted back from my face and sat on my pelvis.

I let out a small cry and tried to push him off.

"If I kill ya, then we can't have any fun together," he replied, "besides, I really like you."

He twisted his mouth into an evil smile then grabbed my wrists.

I tried to wriggle out of his hold, but failed.

"If you don't kill me, then I'll do it myself!" I spat out.
