That Damn Nurse

The Hospital Visit

Eren sat quietly in the hospital waiting room, he only had himself. He looked around and at the TV, usually TV was his safe space. He could watch TV for hours and hours, Eren knew every show and everything about the TV itself. A nurse came out and sat in the chair next to him "Mr. Jaeger?" Eren looked over, his throat felt tight he couldn't speak he could feel himself tearing up. The nurse struggled "Y-your mom has, did, not. Your mother didn't make it. I'm so sorry." Eren got up, he didn't feel sad or depressed instead he felt rage. He walked down the hall with tears running down his cheeks his face was burning red. All the nurses were staring at him. Suddenly the world went in slow motion as he looked at one nurse right in the eyes, a short man with jet black hair. His eyes were a cold gray cold. It seemed like his world went in slow motion as well, his eyes got a little bigger. A fellow nurse tapped him, they couldn't seem to break eye contact. Eren made it out the door and ran to his car swinging the door open and falling it. "Fuck!" he screamed his tears were now dripping down to his neck and shirt, he fumbled with his keys before starting his car and driving off. The hardest part would be going home to his wife and kids telling everyone grandma had not made it.

A Few Days Ago

Eren looked over at his mother in the passenger seat and smiled before looking back at his sister, Mikasa. He adjusted the mirror "doing okay Mikasa?" she looked at him in the mirror and nodded. Mikasa had suffered from agoraphobia, fancy word for scared of leaving the house. She had a blanket over her head with a pair of black sunglasses. No one is sure what she saw but Mikasa let out a loud scream, Eren's mom jumped, Eren swerved the car hitting a cement blockade. The car violently flipped over it, half the car was balanced on the blockade. Eren reached over and unbuckled his mom, she was unconscious along with Mikasa. Eren dragged his mother out through his busted door, cars began to pull over people started calling 911. Eren pulled Mikasa out and gently sat her next to their mother. 

Within minutes Eren's mom and sister were loaded up in emergency vehicles and were taken to the hospital. Eren however, took an Uber home. 

Present Day 

Eren pulled into the drive way of his small house and saw his kids peeking out the window, he slowly got out of the car. It's almost like the kids knew already of the death. Eren slowly walked in and looked at his two beautiful five year old girls. "Where's mommy?" he mumbled "Mommy said you take us to bed." one shouted out, Mandy. Mandy was loud and so smart, Eren was proud of her always. "Goodnight daddy." Molly whispered and ran into their room, she was a mommy's girl for sure and only went to Eren for cookies and bedtime stories. He was just as proud of Molly as he was Mandy. 

After a while of goodnight hugs and lots of bed time stories Eren shut their door and slowly went into his room. His wife was plopped on the bed in a red lace bra with matching panties "Are you fucking kidding me?" he sighed. "my mother just fucking died and you wanna have sex?" she looked over at him "I thought it would cheer you up plus I've been ready all day." she rolled her eyes "I'm going to bed Amanda." Eren lied down and kicked his shoes off slowly undoing all the buttons on his shirt, Amanda crawled onto him. She breathed in "it'll take your mind off things," "Amanda please." Eren huffed "Eren it's been weeks." Eren rolled over and closed his eyes, all he could see is his mother, her smile, her laugh. She was gone and he couldn't believe that.

Eren lied awake staring at the clock's red glowing numbers, he sat up grabbing his phone and leaving the room quietly. He walked into the dark living room and sat on the couch, he dialed the hospital number and listened to the buzzing noise, staring off. "This is West Chrome Hospital, this is Levi how can I help you." 

"Hi, this is Eren Jaeger. My mom passed away at your hospital yesterday and I left before I could talk to anyone."

"Are you the kid who ran outta here?"

Eren sighed "Yes, I was. I don't know what I need to do, this is my first family death."

"I figured."

"Are you by any chance short, black hair, gray eyes."

Eren heard a small sigh and a "pft" noise "I am."

Eren looked around before asking "Can we meet up somewhere? I can't do this over the phone man, I'm sorry."

Levi looked around the hospital "Let me give you my personal, ready."

Eren wrote down the numbers listed off and hung up entering them into his phone. He texted the number and saved it under 'Nurse Levi' he walked back to his room. 

The sunlight was shining through the curtains, Eren squinted his eyes. There was a dark figure above him with what looked like a phone he slowly sat up. "A-Amanda?" Amanda threw the phone at Eren "Who is nurse Levi?" Eren groaned and rubbed his face "A man, Amanda." She looked at him and grabbed the phone from next to him. "Let's find out." She mumbled as she pressed the call button. The phone rang for what seemed like forever until a deep, familiar voice answer "Hey. Still wanna meet up to talk." Amanda raised an eyebrow wanting Eren to talk so she could here this conversation. "If that's okay with you, yes. Where do you wanna meet up?" 

"My house okay?" Those words, made Eren feel hot and sweaty, he didn't know those words would be life changing for him. 

Eren looked over Amanda, she shrugged in response. "Send me an address, when do you want me over?"

"Now." Levi hung up. Eren got up and slipped into some clothes, he put on deodorant and  combed his hair. "Amanda!" he yelled "I'm leaving to Levi's!" 

"Okay! Pick the girls up from school after!" she yelled back

He sighed and grabbed his keys walking out the door.
