We'll Make It Work (Ereri) (On Hold)

Chapter 4

Levi POV

I sat at my desk wanting for Eren to arive

I was impressed by how fast he was picking up French, and I was happy about how dedicated he is

I hear the door to the room open and I look up to see Eren

"Hey Mr. Akerman, how are you?" He asks

"Im good Eren, and you?" I asks

"Im good," he replies

"Thats good, so we'll be going soon. Also I was very impressed with your quiz," I say

"Thank you sir, " he says smiling

I then stand and grab my bag and walk towards the door

"We should get going," I say and he nods following me out of the class and down the empty halls of the school

We walk along the street to my house and soon arive

Once we're inside Eren and I go into the living room and sit on the sofa

"Mr. Akerman, I wanted to thank you for helping me with my French," he says

"No problem, Eren, its a pleasure," I say

~one week later~

Eren POV

The past week has been great, my French has gotten better and I'm really proud of myself and I know Mr. Akerman is too. I also for some reason feel me and Mr. Akerman have gotten... closer? I dont really know for sure but it seems like it

But what I do know was that im a lot happier than ive been in a long time

It was Friday and me and Mr. Akerman just finished our dayle tutoring when I get a idea

"Hey Mr. Akerman," I start and he nods signaling I can go on "Do you have a cell phone?" I ask him nervously

"A cell phone?" He asks standing up as I stand up too

"Yeah," I say

"Well yeah, I do... why?" He asks

"So I can give you my number so we can text to discuss French stuff, ya know?" I say

"Oh, okay," he says

"Cool," I say grabing a pen and writing my cell phone number on a pice of paper for him and giving it to him " Text or call me whenever, we can discuss this weekends plans for tutoring," I say "I got to get going but today was fun, see ya tomorrow," I say and he just nods looking at the paper as I leave the house

I arive home realizing it was 9pm so I sneak in and run straight to my room

Once in there I lock the door and flop down on my bed

I was so tired, I had a long day at school not to mention avoiding Mikasa and Armin, they keep questioning where I go every night and its non of there busses

I lay there staring at the seeling when I hear a nock at my door

I bolt up and look at the door

"Who is it?" I ask

"Its me," the voice belonging to Mikasa says

"Come in," I say and the door opens and she walks in

"So... me and Armin are worried..." she says

"About?" I ask

"You've been acting weird and... we were thinking you're gonna have a relapse..." she says

"Wait-you mean you think im gonna hurt myself again?" I ask

"Yeah..." she says looking down

"Mikasa," I say standing up and walking over to her "im fine,"

"Are you sure?" She asks

"Yes, now its late, you should get some sleep," I say and she nods leving the room as I close the door

Yeah... I have problems, depression and anxiety to be precise... and ive struggled with self harm, and the thing is... Mikasa and Armin think I stoped yet I havent, I just dont cut my arms that much, usually my legs and hips or anywhere else I can hid it

Things have been better though, I haven't been doing it as much and that would mainly be because of Mr. Akerman

I go and lay in my bed and stare at the seeling again wondering what will happen this weekend

I then drift into sleep

~later~

I bolt up out of bed

I had another nightmare and I wasnt to happy about it

I suddenly feel a relapse coming

I grab my phone and get out of bed heading to the bathroom

I get in there and look in the mirror knowing I shouldnt cut but I wasnt in control

I take my phone case off and pull my blade out pulling up a sleeve

I try and convince myself not to but its too late, I started cutting up and down my arm

Over and over

The cuts were so deep and I knew I cant just cover them with make-up

I finaly get control and clean myself up and put my blade away covering my arm with my sleeve

I go back to my bed room and lay in bed as I feel tears fall from my eyes as I start crying

I then hear my phone go off and I look at it to see I got a text

Unknown: Eren, Its Mr. Akerman.

Me: oh, hi sir. What did you need?

I then look at the time and see its 11:00pm and I change his contact name to 'Mr. Akerman' as he responds

Mr. Akerman: I wanted to know if you wanted to have a tutoring session tomorrow.

Me: of course, that would be great.

Mr. Akerman: Okay, I'll pick you up at 9:00am.

Me: okay sir, see you then.

I was glad he texted me, and even happier he wanted to have a tutoring session tomorrow

I put my phone on its charge and lay in bed wondering why he wanted to meet so early

And then the though of his beautiful eyes came into my head

Every time I look into his eyes I swear he puts me in a trance, but I love it

His beautiful silver eyes with the slightest tint of blue
