Levi's POV•
Eren was finally released from the hospital. He still haven't been talking so they decided to make him see a therapist every week. I don't think he'd ever talk again though.

       He went through so many things in that house and I know I wouldn't want to talk either. Right now though Eren was sitting on my lap while I was trying to do some reading.

       I adjusted him slightly so I could see the book better. I was reading my book "To Kill A Mockingbird" since I had the free time.

     Most of the time Eren would always draw in his notebook I didn't know what all of the pictures were but I did see one of them. It was a depressing drawling and knowing that he's so broken made me want to cry especially since I can't do anything to help him.

This is Eren's drawling that Levi got to see in his notebook

      I had decided that I was done reading so I put the book up and shifted Eren so that I could carry him. Ever since he got back he's clung to me like his life depended on it.

    Eren was practically afraid of every human being other than me as well. I took him to the store the other day and I had to carry him as he hid his head in my shoulder. I got a lot of stares but oh well.

       I needed to go shopping today for somethings but I couldn't leave Eren at home. He had developed separation anxiety and was now scared of being alone. It would be hard to take him with me because he's scared of people.

       I looked over to Eren who was now sitting on the couch. "Hey Eren Do you want to go to the store with me or do you wanna stay here?" He pulled his notepad out and started to write.

I will stay home but I'm scared.

I nodded at him. "If you get to scared or miss me just call me so you can hear my voice." He nodded his head. I hugged him and gave him a kiss which caused him to melt to the floor and left.

      After about 20 minutes of shopping my phone began to ring. I answered knowing it was Eren. I could hear him sobbing on the other line. "I'm coming home all right. Don't cry love." I started to hum a soothing tune.

        His crying got quieter. I got in my car staying on the phone. When I got home I burst through the door and went to find Eren. Once I found him curdled in a ball clutching one of my shirts on our bed I ran over to him and cradled him in my arms. I rocked him back and forth.

         I started to sing to him.

Take a breath; take a long look around
Before you step-
'Cause the tide is coming
Swallowing the ground-
And there's no way to tell if we will drown tonight
Or we'll be found tonight
Come in close; if the current gets us
Then it gets us both
And we can't wait here anymore-
So if the waves come, let 'em take us-
As they cover you and me, and they pull us underneath-
I hope that fate will forgive us for tempting the sea
I hope that they won't forget us-
But we cannot go back to the way it used to be
Take it in; take a good look at
What it might have been
As we're swept into the water from the shore
Because there's no way they can tell us that we can't have more-
Because we can have more
As the waves come, let 'em take us-
As they cover you and me, and they pull us underneath-
I hope that fate will forgive us for tempting the sea
I hope that they won't forget us-
No we cannot go back to the way it used to be
So certain, where it would take us-
So sure that we were never lost;
To notice whether we'll be drowned tonight or found tonight...
So as the waves come, let 'em take us-
As they cover you and me, and they pull us underneath-
It takes the shape of who will save us
When it leaves it's hard to know
But I will not let you go
I hope that fate will forgive us for tempting the sea
I hope that they won't forget us-
No we cannot go back to the way it used to be
I hope that they won't forget us-
No we cannot go back to the way it used to be

After I finished I looked down to see Eren sleeping soundly in my arms. I laid down and got comfortable making sure not to disturb him. I kissed him cheek and feel asleep with him coddled in my arms.
