Eren pulls me into an embrace. His glistening tears build in his emerald green eyes. As the tears fall across his soft cheek Eren exclaims "I love you Armin!" My body shakes, with a mixture of joy and disbelief. My rapture filled tears run down my dry face, in a water full like motion. "Eren, what?" I ask with a hazy expression on my face. "Armin I love you I have been in love with you the moment you first shared that book with me. I thought I could see the outside world with you, my Armin" MY ARMIN, hearing this is like witnessing a light shone from the heavens.

"Eren I don't know what to say..."

"You don't feel the same?"

"No it's just..." Eren turns away with a discouraged look on his face. I tear up, no my Eren please don't be sad! "Eren I love you!" I say grasping his bijou face. I pull him in closer. Our lips only a centimetre apart.

Immediately, I awake from my dream. Of course it was only a dream. I turn my head to gaze upon Eren's unconscious body. I stroke my fingers through Eren's chocolate brown hair; my hand ventures further down to his soft tender cheek. I look closer into his dreamy eyes, I find myself moving closer in... closer... closer.

Suddenly, Mikasa forces the door open slamming it against the wall. I jump backwards my face lights with the colour red. "Armin here is the book you asked for!" She launches my precious book (over flowing with messages to Eren) at me. However, it did not hit her target, instead it knocked Eren. I couldn't believe it. I burst with anger. "Mikasa he already is in a critical state why did you do that?!?" I say tears building, with a cocktail of anger, hatred and worry in my stomach. Does she not care for him at all? She needs to be more careful! "My Eren, I'm sorry." She exclaims with (false) tears dripping from her face. MY EREN? NO! HE IS MINE! HANDS OF HIM BITCH! Alright Armin calm down. It was only an accident. Yeah right that STUPID BITCH needs to be more careful. She strokes his face, all I do is look down and whisper "Go"

"What did you say?" She says confused. But he is my Eren, I must protect him in every way my weak self can! "LEAVE!" I yell at her yanking her of him, then slamming her into the cold brick wall beside us. She runs away, with dark red blood oozing from her now misshapen nose.

Don't worry Eren I am here for you. I stand, only to bend down. I lift the book from the floor. Tears bursting from my eyes I whisper to him "Eren if you die I need to tell you something. I LOVE YOU! ALWAYS, FOREVER, TIL THE VERY END! Even if you die here, right now I will always love you." I start to read from the book "No matter what happens, if you are kidnapped and taken to the other side of the universe, you fell in love with someone else, the whole world turns its back on you or even if you just die here right now! I will always love you! I swear!" I curl into a ball sobbing "I can't lose you! Not now, not ever! Not when we are so close to leaving this birdcage and exploring the outer world. Think the oceans, beaches, mountains, lands of ice. We can see it all together. If you only just stay here with me. STAY EREN! DON'T YOU DARE GO ANYWHERE WITH OUT ME! PLEASE!"

I look at Eren his arm twitched, then his leg, then his eyes. Then, like what I said was a magic spell his emerald green eyes burst open. He was awake. Did he hear me?
