CHAPTER TWENTY TWO:
rushing, rushing, born.

"Oh my god," I panted, collapsing into a seat on the jet as Armin shakily sat down next to me, clumsily packed backpack in his arms.

Mikasa and Eren simultaneously stumbled inside and sat down opposite each other at the back of the plane, whilst Marco and Jean opted for the seats on the opposite side of where Armin and I were.

I wrung my hands nervously as I watched Mikasa take out her laptop and start typing away in a frenzy, no doubt doing research on premature children.

And, we were the only ones who had access to a quick private flight. Bands were loaded, after all.

I clicked off my phone and took in a shaky breath.

"Armin," Marco said worriedly, "you're rambling."

"Sorry! Sorry!" Armin said quickly, swallowing thickly as his leg started jumping up and down in a panic. "I'm just nervous for her, that's all..."
