The Things I Didn't Know...{Book 2}

Part Six: Eren

Eren's Point of View: Rmellis

I stumble back with pure horror written all over my face. Staring at him with my one good eye, I look at him questioningly.

"L-Levi? W-what... are you on about?" I stuttered, in befuddlement. "W-where are we?" I asked, my voice fading away as I looked away from him to scan my surroundings.

The boy and girl from before seemed familiar, like I'd seen the in the hospital gowns from before; and Hanji, well I knew her; or so I believe. I eye them individually, mixed emotions running throughout my body.

"Eren? What's wrong?" The blonde boy asked, troubled. I don't say anything and he seems to look at Levi, as if asking for permission to speak. "You got injured and we recovered your body from the forest," he informs me.

"N-no," I deny, shaking my head."He's telling the truth," Hanji stepped out, coming besides Levi. "You've been asleep for weeks," she chuckles. "You're lucky, you got a better sleep than any of us here.""Asleep?" I repeat her words.

"N-no, I haven't," I frown, holding my head. "I've been trapped in the hospital.. Y-you were there. H-Hanji and Levi," I look up to him but quickly look away wistfully. "Y-you were all there.. And you saved me Levi.. you told me, you told me that you-" thought being cut off, the boy calls my name.

"Eren, you've been asleep the entire time. You haven't gone, nor been taken. I don't know, we don't know, what you're talking about." He says, looking at Levi for some sort of help. "I mean.. You did bang your head quite hard."

Hanji put on a thinking face and agreed. "You just need a bit more medicine kid, to be honest it's probably because of what I've given you which has made you, possibly, hallucinate." She laughed. "Whoops," she says slyly, dodging Levi's eyes. "Let's get you back on the bed kid, your eye isn't healing as fast as your eyes did," she points out, "so let's get you checked out."

"What do you mean my hands?" I say looking down, though they looked perfectly fine. "A-and hallucination? I-I didn't hallucinate, I was real. Y-you did this!" I shout, pointing at the woman. "You took us here! Y-you b-brainwashed Levi t-to forget!" I cried.

Hunching over in laughter, she held by tears. "Me? Brainwash shorty over here? Yeah right."

Coming towards me, she stopped when I began taking steps away. At first she must have thought I was joking, but when she figured out I wasn't, her serious face came on.

"Hm?" She thinks. "There's definitely is something wrong. Maybe we should take him somewhere private for analyzation."

"You! You're not taking me anywhere!" I said, backing up to the exit of the tent. It was either have Levi protect me like he'd always promised, or hope for the best in my attempt at my escape. Shying up to Levi, I looked at him hopelessly, and went to grab his hand. "Y-you said you'd protect me," I cried, before darting away behind him and out of the massive tent.
