    "Eren. Eren. EREN!!" I woke up to the voice of mikasa, screaming at me to wake up, shaking me violently.

    "Hm" I mumbled, turning over. "It's too early."

    "It's almost noon."

"I don't care." As I was pulling my duvet over my head, mikasa ripped it right off me.

"I have the day off, remember? We were going to spend the day together." Shivering from being pulled out of the warmth  surrounding me, I sat up.

    "Oh yeah. Ok. Just let me get ready." She left the room and I started to head towards the shower. So is that what happened? Is that how I died? I thought about my dream/memory as I was undressing myself. No wonder I felt such a connection with the forest and the bridge. It's the place I died. The place I promised Levi we'd meet again. I got lost in thought as I was in the shower, washing myself while pondering on the subject. It must've hurt Levi so much. He didn't want to execute me. He loved me too much and all I did was yell at him and accuse him of killing me. I forgot him and our promise. I'm so horrible. I buried my face in my hands, feeling incredibly guilty. I had to call him. To apologise to him.

    I got out and dried myself, then got dressed. Afterwards, I turned on my phone and called Levi.

"Hello?"

"Hey Levi."

"Hey brat. What's up?"

"Um... I would rather say this in person but I doubt my sister will let me so I'm just going to tell you now. Ok?"

"...okay?"

I took a deep breath then said "I remember everything now. I know you didn't kill me. In fact you did the opposite. I-I'm so sorry Levi. I forgot out promise. I accused you of something so horrible. I don't even know what to do or what to think. This pained you so much and I was being a complete bastard and I-" he interrupted me.

"Eren. It's not your fault."

"It's not yours either."

He knew what I meant. I heard him gasp a little. All I wanted to do was hold him and kiss him and reassure him that everything was ok.

"I'm sorry. I know that apologising isn't good enough but I will make it up to you by stay by your side for as long as I can in this life."

"............"

"Levi?"

"I'll do the same. Until our next life. That is if there is one."

"That's a promise. This time I'll keep it."

"Tch. Brat. You didn't break your promise. We met at the place we died and you remembered me."

Wait. Did he say we?!

"You drew me for fucks sake. You might've not been aware of it but you said yourself that you felt like you knew me. You didn't break your promise Eren."

"I didn't?"

"No."

"Ok. Thank you Levi."

"For what?"

"For being with me in this life."

"Hm."

"I've got to go Levi. I love you."

"I love you too brat."

I hung up the phone. A huge relief being lifted off my chest. However there was one thought that kept lingering in my mind. Levi said we. After I died, did he commit suicide? Hm. I guess it doesn't matter now though. I mean we're together now. I ran downstairs.

    "Hey. What took you so long."

    "I was talking...to Levi..." I mumbled the last word. She just sighed.

    "Ok. Well hurry up. We'll get something to eat once we arrive at the city centre."

    "Ok." I put on my shoes and my jacket then waited by the door for Mikasa.

"Ready?"

"Yep." I said opening the door. She unlocked the car and I quickly got in the passenger seat, putting my seatbelt on. She started the car and we drove off. I stared out of the window, enjoying the comfortable silence between us.

    "Hey Mikasa?"

    "Yes Eren?"

    "What did you think when you found out I was gay?"

    "Why?"

    "I just want to know." There was a minute silence as Mikasa was thinking.

    "I guess I was surprised but happy for you at the same time. It meant there was a chance for you to be with Levi again. Yes, I hate his guts but he makes you happy. I know I didn't react very well when you told me but get was only because I blamed him for your death. He...he um...he didn't execute you Eren."

    "I know. I had a dream about it last night. I know what happened."

She stared at me briefly before setting her eyes back on the road.

     "You do?" I nodded. "That's a relief. I'm sorry. I didn't react very well. I just didn't want you to be hurt, but now I realise your happier when you're with Levi. It's a nice thing to know. So, I'll be here to support you. Ok?"

    "Thank you Mikasa. You have no idea how happy that makes me." She smiled then we arrived. I got out of the car and we walked to the shopping centre ((or mall. It depends on what you call it.))

    "I need to go clothes shopping. Afterwards we can do whatever."

    "Sounds good." I answered.

    "Are you coming in?"

    "No I think I'll stay here." I said, leaning against the wall as I pulled out my phone. I was playing on it for about 10 minutes until I heard I voice.

    "Eren! Eren!" I looked up from my phone to see who was calling me.

    "Armin. Hey." I walked up to him.

    "How's it going, being suspended and all."

"Not bad. How long have I been out of school?"

"Five days." Five days? Was that all. So much had happened it was hard to believe.

"Five days?!"

"Yeah. You still have a while until you can get back. Sorry."

"Why are apologising? This is great." It means I have more time to spend with Levi. I thought dreamily.

"Eren. Hellooo?! Earth to Eren!" Arm in said, snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Oh. Sorry. So what are you doing here?"

"Just need to buy some things. You?"

"I'm here with Mikasa. She had the day off so we're spending it together. It's nice to spend some time with my sister when she isn't scolding me."

"Oh ok. Where's Mikasa then?" He said, scanning the building, looking for her.

"I'm right here." She said, as she came out, holding her bags of clothes.

"Oh hey. Anyways, I've got to go. It was nice seeing you both. Bye."

"Bye." I said, waving at him.

"Soooo...hungry?"

"Starving."

After we ate, we just walked around, going into random shops, buying what we liked the look of. We talked, laughing and catching up with each other. Yes we saw each other everyday, but Mikasa would always get back late and we never had the time to talk. This was nice.

"Eren?" She said, as we walking around, not paying attention to where we were going.

"Yes, Mikasa?"

"Thanks for agreeing to spend the day with me."

"It's fine. Besides, if I didn't agree, you would've forced me to anyway." I said, joking. However she took it the wrong way.

"Oh." She said, looking down, coming to a halt.

"Mikasa? Mikasa. I was only kidding. Of course I'd agree with you to come. I'm so happy we get to spend time with each other. We don't see each other as much anymore so it's nice." I said, giving her a reassuring hug.

"I'm sorry Eren. I haven't been there for you recently. Even though I'm your sister, I haven't been acting like it."

"Stop talking crap like that." I said, hugging her tighter. "You've done so much for me. After mum and dad died, you've been working so hard to support us, and even though you work late, you still ask me how my day was, or how I am. When I'm obviously not ok, you're always there to reassure me. You support me in everything. Like when I told you about Levi, the only reason you reacted the way you did was because you were worried I'd get hurt. Not because I was gay. You even apologised for it, knowing that you reacted wrongly. You're always there always there to save me when I'm about to get hurt, protect me when I need you to. You're the best sister anyone can ask for so don't say that you haven't been there for me or haven't been acting like a sister because you have. I love you no matter what Mikasa. You'll always be my sister no matter what. Never forget that." I said. I heard sniffing. Mikasa was crying. "Mikasa? Are you ok? Don't cry. I'm sorry." She looked up at me and smiled.

"I'm not upset. In fact I'm the opposite of that Eren. I'm over joyed that you think that. Thank you." She buried her face in my chest, pulling me into a tighter hug. We stayed like this for a while until we realised we were in public.

"So. Do you want to go home or watch a film?"

"I think you know." I said, smiling at her.

"Then come on." And with that she grabbed my wrist and dragged me to the cinema. Mikasa. I'm so lucky to have a sister like you. No matter what happens, I know you will be there for me. I love you so much Mikasa. I hope you know that.

(AN: I know this chapter doesn't have much Ereri but after reading many many fanfics, in most of them Mikasa is a bîtch.

I wanted this chapter to be about Eren and Mikasa's relationship. Sorry. Next chapter will have more Ereri. I'm starting to run out of ideas. If you have any ideas, please feel free to comment them. If you enjoyed this chapter then vote. I hope you did. Thank you for reading. Until the next chapter, goodbye my fellow readers.))
