My minds spinning, the worlds circling around me. Laughter cackles from me, but although I can hear it coming from myself, I can't feel myself doing it. My throats sore and dry, my eyes blurred over, unable to even see the street lights a head of me.

"I told you to slow down," the person besides me teased. "Now look at you, probably don't even know your own name."

Frowning and pouting, though stuck to being besides him for he's my leaning post, I shake my head childishly.

"I.. I dooo too." I murmur, making gagging noises soon after.

"Is that so?" he hums.

"Y-yeahhh.. m-my names E-E-Ere- Ugh!" Hunching forwards and throwing up all my food from breakfast to dessert, I feel large hands rubbing my back soothingly. "I-I.. ugh!"

"It's okay," he sighs, "just let it all out. I've got you."

Time went by and saliva was wiped from my face by a leave hanging from a near by tree. Patting my back as if trying o burp a baby, I giggled when it actually worked. His coat finding it's way around me, and my body falling into him, I felt all my body weight being lifted up.

"W-what you doing?" I slurred.

Shaking his head and walking on, he says; "Taking you home, what else would I be doing?"

Closing my eyes and resting against him, I tiredly shrug. "I dunno.. kidnapping me?"

"Yes, because I'd so want to kidnap you," he said with sarcasm within his voice. Huff, he laughs. "Jokes Eren, just jokes. Don't you worry, I wont ever have to kidnap you, you'll always come back to me anyways."

"Ha! Y-yeah yeah." He rolled my eyes. "K-keep dreaming."

Several cars speed past Erwin's, his hands tightly holding the steering wheel. Something felt off on this lonesome night and he couldn't figure what. Car lights blared in his eyes making it hard for him to focus on the road, and the thought of Eren somehow getting out made his concentration worse. 

Corner shops were closed and the streets were ghostly with no one in sight. Everything about this place seemed to be haunted, and Erwin fitted in as the devil ruling it. The eerie dark blue sky helped the atmosphere seem so horrid, with the few droplets of rain added to it. The crescent moon hid behind the misty clouds and only a couple of stars dotted about. 

Erwin had traveled around the town, eyeing up the shops, only to find them all closed. Sighing, he went to his plan B and that was to take food supplies from Eren's Dad. He was only a few minutes away from Grisha's but was 'umming' and 'arring' about whether to check on Eren or not. 

Re-picturing the image of him having Eren securely put in place and unable to escape, he persuaded himself to make himself back to the horrid house filled with unwanted guests.

He knew Levi was up to something, he knew it was too much of a coincidence to turn up at Eren's father's house, but he couldn't quite figure out how they knew he was there. He'd made no signs of going there, and could only wonder what they know and could tell. 

He wanted, no, needed to keep them silent; but had no clue in how.

Being blinded from the car lights only made Erwin nauseous, as though he were drunk. But being drunk was really the only thing Erwin was good at, so it didn't bother him as much as it would a sober man. 

Erwin had no idea to what to do with Eren anymore. He never planned for things to play out like this, for Levi to find out. Nevertheless did he plan for Levi to meet up with Eren's old friends and actually track him down.

Erwin had no interest in Eren anymore, he never really had. Well, thats a lie. The first year or two were amazing, but he'd been seeing someone else. As bad as it sounds, this other person just suited him more in his eyes. 

Though, Eren being his possession, his toy, he just couldn't bring himself to let Eren go. 

But was that the only reason? No. He knew that if he let Eren slip out of his grip and into Levi's arms then who was to know what would happen next...

...scary thing was, Erwin did know. Levi could tell something was off, and Erwin could tell Levi knew this; otherwise why else would these other people be here?

He couldn't let Eren go. He couldn't risk Eren reporting him. He couldn't let Levi be near him. So he did the only thing he knew to do, he hid Eren. 

Was he actually going to go back to Eren? Was he going to stay with him while they hid? Was he going to make an excuse up to where Eren was gone?

Here's your answer: No.

Ten minutes before he'd arrived he had texted Annie, telling her to meet him out front with all the bags. Though, ten minutes turned into twirty. Annie, being fast asleep as the time, woke up gulping to the thought of meeting an angry Erwin. 

However, Erwin took this time to his advantage. Opening up the drawer on the passengers side to the car, he pulled out an old book that'd been in there ages and a pen. Ripping apart some of the book and taking the pen lid off with his teeth, he began writing. 

He brows were closed together and he was deep in concentration. He needed this to be done, and this was a perfect plan. Frankly, by the time Annie was able to get herself awake and together, she'd packed back up her suit case and rooted around for Erwin's.

Jean, who, at the time, was in the toilet, caught sight of the blonde haired girl tip toeing around Levi and made a quick and quite exit for the door. Rubbing his eyes, his body in zombie mode, he crept out of the toilet and hid behind the front-room door.

"Erwin I'm sorr-"

"Doesn't matter," Erwin cut her off, his voice calm. "Just put this on the sofa," he ordered.

"This?" She whispered. "What is it?"

"Nothing, I'll explain in the car. Quickly, before anyone catches you."

Nodding and handing the cases over, Annie chucks the, folded up paper that Erwin had gave her onto the sofa and jogged to the door. Shutting it carefully, trying o make as little noise as possible, she ran off to the car just as Erwin was getting in.

"Where's Eren?" She asked, watching the house cautiously as the car sped off. "And what was the paper about?"

Looking on forwards, the corner of his mouth raising into a smirk. He lets out a sigh in relief and makes his way out of the town.

"Well?" She asks, nudging him.

"The paper?" he repeats, a real smile now on his lips. "Oh, that was nothing more then Eren's death."

A/N: Please check out the newest book I've published. There's three sneak pecks into three stories I am doing. 1. Ice Cold. 2. Raindrops and 3. New Found Hope. These are books that could become more within the future. Right now I need you guys to read them three chapters and then comment below on the chapter which is your favourite, or vote on your favourite one. The one with the most votes/comments, will be carried on and I'll try complete it for September where my mum has so nicely said that she'll send it off for me and turn it into a hard back book. But I need to know which one to do out the three ASAP.

Sorry this has taken so long, I hope you enjoy. I've got ideas for this now. :)
