Levi had asked the nurse if he could take care of me. I was somewhat taken aback by his sudden action but I admired it. He certainly wasn't the same guy I had met while in the underground. That didn't mattered. A beautiful relationship had come from the traumatic events that we have shared. Though, lovingly he helped me up from my bed. I hadn't had anything too serious, happen to me, or then some fracture in my hands and ribs. It did hurt to walk, and it did hurt to breath but I fought through my pains. I sat up, Levi holding his buff arm out to support me. I gasped hesitating slightly. My breath wheezing heavily.
"Don't rush, you'll only hurt yourself more." Levi said. Rubbing my back sportingly.
"Levi, I hate being in the infirmary." I cough, shutting my eyes tightly in pain. I felt as if my broken ribs were piercing my lungs. Luckily they weren't, but unfortunately I had no way of healing them other then having to take it easy. My muscles were tense and I wanted nothing more then to be out of this sterile smelling room. The dense white walls, the hard cot like bed. The lack of warm and comfort was nothing but sanity killing. I slowly swung my legs over the to edge of the stiff bed Levi hold out arm careful not to hurt my hand. After a few minutes of struggling to even my breathing out I was finally up out of the bed and fighting to keep my legs up.
"Lets head to my room. It's closer, and I've been meaning to talk to you." Levi spoke, his voice calming but still having that notorious cold feeling. Although it was nothing that shocked me, he was like this all the time and it wasn't surprising. I struggled to keep my balance. Like I had said before my breathing was irregular from the injuries I have suffered from. Levi grabbed my jacket, and my leather straps because when I was dispatched in to the infirmary that's the first thing the nurses had to take off to exaimin me further. Levi picked it up, still being there while I weakly walked next to him. As we were walking down he hall a thought came to my mind that I couldn't wash away. Everyone in Levi's squad is gone. I had failed to protect them, I had failed as a soldier to protect Eren too. It shouldn't be them gone, it should be me!
"Levi I'm sorry." I say stopping in the middle of the hall, holding my ribs and looking down ashamed. Tears had started to line my waterline, filling up to the point of spilling over. My eyes glistened in the dim light of the sun, as it was a gloomy day. Clouds covered the sun and the sky was almost black. I looked up the wet, salty tears falling to my (e/c) orbs to my checks. Then finally to my chin before falling off. I gritted my teeth trying to prevent myself from sobbing because the jerking movement would only hurt my ribs more. Though, I wasn't able to maintain that when my eyes had met with Levi's ice cold, blue ones. He was only a few footsteps ahead of me.
"For what?" He questioned. Taking on of his long fingers and wiping away one of the stray tears from my face. I hiccuped, and flinched all in the same moment, wrapping my arms around my waist more tightly. Levi's eyes shifted showing an almost pity and empathy to them. I leaned into his touch sniffing as more tears fell.
"I failed you..!" I gasp leaning my head forward and resting it on his chest ignoring the pain that had stricken my torso. I started weeping, the tears now becoming uncontrollable. Suddenly those soft cries that echoed down the halls turned into ugly, hysterical sobbing. I was heading out breaths and my lungs aches from the lack of oxygen. Levi stood there somewhat shocked at my sudden emotional change. He hesitated for a moment before resting a hand on my head petting my hair soothingly and massaging my back with light calming circles. He waited for me to calm down slightly before taking his hand and resting it on my chin. He lifted my face up to look at him his face giving a light smile.
"No you didn't." His deep voice calmly said. "You did what you had to do..." I wasn't able to reply because he was quick to scoop me up into his arms, carrying me back to his room while I cried in his shoulder, trying to hold it in. I bit my lip and pressed my hands over my mouth to stifle the sounds. Shortly after we arrived in his room, and he carefully rested me on his bed not uttering a word. He lit a match the fire creating a small light source and he lit a few candles with it providing us enough light to see each other.
