The Beautiful Tragic Us (Eren x Mikasa)

Chapter 24: Only One

Mikasa's POV

"Say aaah.." Eren says as he continued feeding me and I could say the hot soup helped a little for my sore throat.

Yeah, it feels like I will be having a cough. Must be because of the cold soda last night.

I coughed as my throat felt itchy. He patted my back repeatedly as he made me drink a glass of water. Some of the water slipped out of my mouth and he wiped it with tissue.

"Ahh you look like a baby now." He says and I glared at him.

He chuckled as he continued feeding me.

"My cute baby.." He added and I blushed as how he cooed at me. A smile made its way to my lips.

He is annoying but it makes my heart flutter. I don't mind him annoying me anyway. I want him to say all those silly jokes for me because for me he will be the only one. The only one I will ever allow to ruin my life.

"S-Stop it Eren. It's embarrassing." I hit him lightly still feeling weak and he chuckled.

"Last one and we're done." He said and I nodded.

"Now drink some meds." He says and he opened a tablet for me to take.

Oh God. I hate taking medicine. I would literally puke everything. I never liked the thing getting dissolved on my tongue it taste horrible.

I made a weird face and he smiled.

"What? You need to take it." He said and I nodded.

This is torture.

I put the tablet inside my mouth and I could feel it dissolving immediately as I drank water. Thankfully I gulped it and I got done quickly over it. But I didn't escaped to coughing after because of its weird taste.

"Good. Now you rest. I have to eat quickly and wash these okay?" Eren says and I nodded.

He made me lay down in bed again and wrapped me with the comforter.

He picked up the tray and went downstairs.

I feel better now that my stomach is already stored with food. If Eren is not here now, would I be the one to cook for myself while I am freezing and trembling because I am sick? I could have collapsed if I am all by myself.

Eren is a good person. Maybe really I just went overboard. I know this is hard for him too but he still chose me. I feel guilty now.

I checked my phone for the time. It's already 8:10 PM when he came in my room again.

He smiled at me as he closed the door behind him.

"How are you feeling?" He asked as he plopped down the bed.

He touched my forehead and neck. I guess I still feel hot because he immediately put his hand away as if he got burnt.

He opened my cabinet and looked for the temperature. He checked my temperature and I really do have high fever.

"Shall we go to the hospital? I'm worried about you." He says his voice so soft I could hear him like an angel.

"No Eren. I will be fine." I said as I searched for his hand.

He held my hand and kissed it.

I coughed and covered my mouth.

"You could get sick too. You shouldn't stay close to me this much." I said in between coughs.

"I'm healthy you know." He chuckles and I hit him. I mean it seriously.

"Eren I'm not kidding." I said and he nodded.
