"EREN, NO!"
I felt a hand wrap around me and lift me off the ground. Instantly, I couldn't feel air enter and leave my lungs anymore. I struggled. I wanted to get out of this monsters grip, but I couldn't. It was impossible at this point.
I was quickly losing consciousness, my strength depleting. I fought and fought until I had no more energy left in me. It was pointless, soon I would be gone from this world. Dead.
I heard cries and screams as I was slowly being lifted to the titans mouth. I couldn't quite make out who was screaming. Or why... Everything was slowly becoming a blur. Sounds were muffled, my vision was fading.
I felt a sharp pain on the left side of my waist and head. I wasn't sure if I screamed. I wasn't sure if I was crying. If so, I couldn't tell. My world was quickly leaving my mind until I felt myself fall and hit the ground.
"Eren!"
I began to choke and cough. I felt a liquid in my mouth, it tasted like... Blood. I was coughing up blood. I was also breathing again. Not that it made a difference since my blood was currently suffocating me.
I heard footsteps. Running. Someone- no, people were running towards me. Slowly my vision started coming back in a blurred mess. It was at this moment I realized I was crying.
I felt arms wrap around me. I heard heavy breathing and crying next to my ear. This scent, theses arms, they seemed... Familiar.
"Le...vi..." Another cough of blood.
I saw those beautiful blue eyes stare at me. They had so much sadness and pain in them. More than I ever wanted to see.
"Eren..." It was barely audible, let alone strong. I could hear the way my name trembled on his lips, yet it sounded so beautiful. The way he said my name always made my heart race. Even in a time like this.
"You...saved me." I could feel myself give him a small smile. He put his hands on my face. He was shaking. Was it fear? What was there to fear? I had survived had I not? He saved me, right? So why was he shaking and...crying?...
"Eren, we have to get you out of here and have your wounds wrapped up now." His voice was panicked. He sat up on his knees lifting me up with him. I was confused. Shouldn't have I felt pain if I had any wounds?
"...What do you...mean, Levi?"
"Eren, you're losing blood as we speak! He bit you..." What? I looked down at my waist. There was a puddle of blood on the floor. I slowly lifted my hand up to my head and felt my head slightly tingle from the touch.
"Oh, hahaha would you look at that, Levi? I am bleeding." My words were still very choppy and not very audible, but regardless I could speak.
"Eren, why are you laughing? You're gonna...gonna...."
"I'm gonna what, Levi?" I didn't understand. Suddenly, my vision blurred again as my head began to throb.
"...You're gonna die if we don't take care of you soon, Eren!" I looked up at him. I could still see his beautiful blue eyes. They could always light up the darkest of my nights even if they had tears in them.
"Eren! You're-you're... Damnit, Eren don't die on me! You can't!" I smiled a light smile. I didn't want to see him in pain. Not like this. Not now. Not ever.
"Levi... Kiss me."
"Wha-what?"
"I want your lips...to be the last thing...I taste. The last thing...I...feel. And I want...you to be...th-the last thing...I know..." He knew just as well as I did right now that there was no time. No time to get me to safety. There never was to begin with. I was a lost cause as soon as that titan bit me.
"Eren! N-no! You-you're not gonna d-die damnit!" I tangled my hand in his hair and brought him close. I looked at his lips and he looked at mine. Then, I closed the space between them.
He kissed me back instantly. We kissed like we never have before. Like it was the first time...but it would never be the last.
I could feel nothing but love at that moment. Love for him. He was the only thing that mattered right now. Not whether I was gonna die soon or not.
His tongue licked the bottom of my lip asking him for entrance which I immediatley granted.
The last thing I taste...
He explored every inch of my mouth as if he were trying to retain every detail. For it would be gone in a few moments from now.
He pulled away and looked into my eyes. He was crying. Even with my vision almost completely gone I could still tell. But these weren't tears of sadness. They were tears of love.
Tears for a love that will never end no matter what happens. Tears for a love that will always mean something, even if only us two know it. Tears for a love that will never let anyone else break in and take a spot. Tears for a love that will forever and always connect us two to each other.
Levi then slowly placed a soft kiss on my lips. One that we both knew wouldn't be our last. We would meet again, whether it was in another life or not, this wouldn't be the last. Ever. Not in a thousand years. Not in a million. There never would be one.
The last thing I feel...
"I love you, Eren Jeager. I'll never stop loving you. I swear one day, we'll meet again and you'll be mine and I'll be yours once again. Our love won't ever end. I promise."
I could feel myself breathing heavily now. I was almost out of air and I intended to use every last bit of it for him.
"I-I'll ne-never stop lo...ving you...either. We'll always be...together. N-no mat-ter what..."
I looked into those beautiful blue eyes of his one last time. I carved them into my mind. I would never forget them. They were always so beautiful whatever the situation.
"I...l-love you...Le...vi..."
I felt my eyes shut. Forbidding me from looking at his any further. I felt my breathing slow down greatly and start it's last breath. I thought about him one last time until everything I know, became everything I knew.
The last thing I know...
