The Donor {Ereri}

Day 14

"Fortunately, we caught the cancer early, so it is most likely not going to be lethal." The doctor said, a bright smile on his face.

My mothers face lit up and she hugged me tightly, caressing the back of my head while crying tears of, what I hoped were, joy.

"We might be able to get your bone strength back up before the cancer gets to bad, and then you'll heal up on your own."

Levi had been sitting in one of the chairs across the room, Hanji, and his friend Erwin, sitting next to him.

Apparently, our doctor and Erwin were good friends, and there fourth, Erwin was getting us free treatment at one of his facility's, which I couldn't be more thankful for.

Okay, maybe Erwin didn't completely offer, Levi kind of somewhat forced/begged him too.

I didn't see why Levi was so into depth about what happened to me, and I'm sure he didn't know either, maybe he thought that it was his responsibility to look after others. My mother has always been that way.

Mikasa was outside of the door, fuming, because she wasn't allowed inside. I think it was more along the lines that Levi, Hanji, and Erwin could see me, and not her.

Connie, Sasha, Jean, Marco, Annie, Christa, and Ymir had shown up as well.

Yesterday, telling them that I had cancer was rough, at first, none of them spoke, but after a few minutes they all burst into tears and were basically screaming.

Today we decided to check and see how extreme the cancer was, and finding out that it wasn't as bad a we suspected, was relieving.

Hanji leapt up from her chair, joy covering her face, "So he'll be alright?!"

The Doctor (Dr. Kano) removed his stethoscope and smiled, "Most likely, Yes."

He turned to face me, "You're very lucky young man, most people with bone cancer will never be able to walk or do anything that requires bone movement after the process begins, ever again. For some reason, it didn't have as much of an affect on you. Which is a miracle."

After Erwin calmed down the over excited Hanji,  he took out a white card that had, 'Erwin Smith Cancer Research and Treatment,' written on it, to my mother.

"We can start the treatment when ever you would like, Mrs. Jaeger."

My mother took the card and examined it, "Thank you very much Erwin."

I was beyond happy, I would get to spend more time with my family, I would get to be with my friends-

"Mrs. Jaeger," the doctor informed, making my mother stop in her tracks, "Yes, Dr. Kano?"

He sighed, "Your sons liver is still failing to do its requirements for him to live, I'm afraid he still needs it replaced."

Levi shot up from his chair, "I'll do it."

"Levi, you've already been through enough trouble." I stated, turning to him. I was seated on a wheelchair, which I had grown accustomed to over the past few days.

Hanji gave me a look, "Eren, I wouldn't stand in Levis way of doing what-"

"I'm still doing it." Levi said defiantly, "I promised Carla that I would save her son, Hell, I promised Eren that I'd save him as well, and if this means that it will save his life, I'm not passing up the opportunity."

The room grew quiet.

I looked down at the floor, I felt bad for putting Levi on this situation, I couldn't help but feel it was partially forced upon him.

"You aren't forcing me into anything." Levi said, as if e was reading my thoughts, I want to do this, I'm volunteering."

Hanji burst into tears, "Oh! It's so B-E-A- U~~~~TIFUL!"

Levi walked over to me and leaned down so that he was right in front of my face, "I'm doing this to save you."

He hugged me.

Ba-Dump

My face grew warm as e pulled away, and I had to look in the other direction, averting my eyes from his gaze.

He walked back over to Hanji and Erwin and started discussing the treatment options with my mother.

My heart was still hammering in my chest. What the hell was this feeling?

I tried to shrug it off and ignore my hammering heart in my ears, by listening to their conversation.

Every time Levi would say my name, it just felt so right. The way it slipped of his tongue, the way he put each letter together and the amazing sound that was created was enough for my face to turn as red as Mikasas scarf.

"Eren~" I heard Hanjis voice call, snapping me out of my daydream. "Ha- ehum, yes?" I asked, trying to sound as if I hadn't been having a mental debate over how Levi said my name.

God I'm such a weirdo.

"We can start your treatment as soon as tomorrow." She said, twirling a strand of her hair in between her fingers, "We won't be doing anything like Kemo-Therapy, well, yet, at least. We'll start by trying to make your bone marrow able to replenish itself."

I raised an we row at her, "Do you work there too?" I asked, referring to how she said, 'We,' instead of Erwin.

She nodded, "Sometimes, it's like a second job." She sat back down in her chair and crossed her legs, resting her head on the palm of her hand. "I usually deal with children that have leukemia, I look giving them determination to fight for their lives."

I nodded, Hanji was a very, interesting,  person to say so myself.

One second she would be talking about two people named Bean and Sonny, and the next, she was explaining the anatomy of a fish.

I didn't understand her.

But I could see why she would make a good friend. She was funny, outgoing, rather sensitive (surprised? I was too) caring, and she always had a smile on her face. Except for when she was crying, tears of sadness, not joy.

"When do you want the transplant to happen?" Dr. Kano said, picking up a pencil and a notepad.

I looked at Levi, awaiting his answer.

"As soon as possible."

Levi decided that the surgery would be in 3 days, I didn't feel like making that decision, Levi was, the one who was giving me part of his liver though.

Urg. The sentence, 'Giving me a part of his liver,' makes me think that it's going to be wrapped up in fucking wrapping paper with a bow on top.

'Oh yeah? Merry Christmas! Here's a fucking liver in a box! Happy fucking new year.'

What's even more disturbing about that, it the fact that I can actually see Levi doing this.
