Ten Thousand Needles (Yandere!Eren x Mikasa)

Dark Holes

"Eren. What did you do to him?"

Mikasa curiously asked as the two of them waited while Armin had gone to check up on Jean. Eren sat beside her on the chair, twiddling his thumbs in a circular motion. He gives Mikasa an awkward smile before he lets out a deep breath.

"I don't want to tell you." He casually shrugged. In response, Mikasa crossed her arms and shook her head in disappointment.

"What did you do?" She asked again. This time, her tone was demanding and strict.

"You would only hate me if I tell you." Eren turned away in shame. He wished Mikasa would drop the subject and focus on how to convince Jean about a minor car accident.

"Eren, we're way past that now. You think I'd just leave you right after you tell me? After what you did to me, was that not enough?" Mikasa responded.

"You're gonna hate me so much. I don't think I'm ready to tell you." Eren sighed.

"Eren, look at me." Mikasa instructed him as he hesitantly meets her eyes with a glance.

"Don't run away from your problems. Tell me what I want to hear. I will help you no matter what." Mikasa lightly explained, resting a palm on his shoulder.

Eren lets out a casual laugh however there was a crack in his voice.

"There are things that you're better off not knowing Mikasa. Trust me on this. Please don't push me." Eren begged.

Mikasa gave him a stern look, cold and serious. She lifts her chin up high.

"After threatening to shove needles down my throat? Try me." Mikasa silently scolded in a deadly tone. Much to Eren's surprise, he was a bit intimidated by her at that moment. Usually, it was the other person's job to feel afraid and cornered but in this case, it seems that Mikasa switched roles with him.

"Don't you dare play victim, Eren. This is serious. I need you to tell me what you did to Jean."

"Okay okay." Eren closed his eyes and leaned back on his chair, raising his nose up high, as if he was praying before he speaks of his sinful act. 

"I..... I was so frustrated because.... Because he brought up Annie and... And he said that you would only think of me as a freak. Nothing but garbage. Nothing to accept. A waste of space. But... You saved me, Mikasa. You saved me from Annie yet, you were drifting away from me it was like I was losing my mind. Like I was going to lose my way. My light." Eren explained.

"I landed a couple punches here and there and....I kicked him right in the nose." Eren confessed as Mikasa holds a palm up to her mouth.

"Jesus, Eren. That's so brutal. How can you think that it's okay to do something like that? You could've broken his nose." Mikasa quietly answered.

"I know. I couldn't stop. I was so scared at that moment. It felt like I lost control of myself because..... It's like I had a mental breakdown and I needed to get it out of me." Eren responded.

"I know I'm crazy. I've known that for quite awhile. I know that I am. And that I'm unstable and need professional help. Therapy. Anything. Meds don't help me nowadays. And... I know you think I'm crazy." Eren spoke.

"The only thing that is true about you is that you need professional help. That's why I'm here, Eren. You need to get better again. Annie can't control you. You are you're own self. You don't take ridiculous orders from anyone, do you understand?" Mikasa warned him.

"I wish it was that easy." Eren apologetically smiled.
