I opened my eyes and Eren was asleep by my bed. I smiled at the fact he's obviously been here for me and stood up. There was a mirror by my bed so I looked into it. I had a bandage around my head. When I realised I had done something to my head it began hurting.
"Naomi?" He said groggily. I turned around and smiled at him.
"How long have you been here?" I asked smiling.
"Since we got through the gates. I haven't left. I'm not even sure if Levi knows your alive. You've been unconscious for about an hour and nobody has come."
"What if they're d-"
"-Don't say it"
"But Eren come on. It's a possibility right?"
"No. Not for Mikasa or Levi. But maybe Armin....and Sasha." He stands up, knocking the bed. "I'm going to get them. Make sure they're safe" he says going to walk off.
"Eren?" I shout. But he continues to walk out. I look around and my 3dmg is left on the side. Eren ran in and took all of my scout stuff. "Don't get any ideas. Please, just stay here and stay safe. It is not a sign of weakness just a sign of sanity"
"Eren?!" I shouted. He turned around. "How will I know you're okay?"
"You won't. Just please don't pull any stunts." He said rushing off. I looked around there were some clean clothes laid out for me. I put them on and began walking around the small hospital. I saw a nurse and hobbled over.
"Hi...do you know where Jean is? He's a scout like me and I think he's broken his leg." I said trying to act as though I wasn't in pain.
"I'm not sure I should be disclosing information as such." She said holding her chart close to her chest.
"I need to make sure he's okay. He's my friend and I know he's probably bored and scared because we all had to move out this morning."
"Naomi?" Someone shouted. I looked past the nurse and Jean stood there with his crutches. "What happened to your head?" He asked hopping over.
I lifted my top up to show him the bandage going completely around my waist.
"I had an accident with a bunch of Titans and now I don't know if Levi or Armin or Sasha or any of that lot are there." I said worriedly.
He ripped my scout jacket off so I was just in a shirt and trousers.
"We can go wait near the gate but don't let the crowd know you're a scout or they will eat you alive." He said walking away. I caught up with him and nodded.

We got near the entrance and waited around. Nothing was here, no sign of anything. There were feint noises, like crashing, screaming. I felt Jeans hand rub my back in a soothing manor to try and calm my nerves, but right now all that would calm me down was seeing my brother and Eren...
I could eventually hear horse noises and then the gate went up. The carriage of the dead rode through first followed by Armin, Connie and Sasha, none of them saw me or Jean, so I couldn't tell if they were happy or sad, but then my horse rode through...I could tell it was my horse as it was the only one to have a white spot in it's face. "Lucky bugger" I said smiling. Then, Levi rode through. His face was blank, like something had happened.
"Levi!" I shouted. "Levi!" I shouted again pushing through the crowd, walking along side his horse. He looked down and saw me. he jumped off his horse, pushed through some people and grabbed me. He stood there holding me gently for what felt like forever.
"You're okay..." He said sounding relieved. I moved away.
"I'm fine...but where's Eren and Mikasa?.." I asked. Levi looked up and darted his eyes at another cart pulling along the injured. I ran over and literally hopped in. Eren lay in the cart unconscious.
"What happened?" I asked looking down at him.
"He did. This obsessive need to kill any and all titans. He tried to turn Titan form but he was weak and he just collapsed. I don't know what happened" she said holding his head gently in her lap.
I climbed on top of him and put both of my hands in his face.
"Eren...thank you for everything you have done and I know you are a strong, strong person but wake the fuck up." I said as a tear rolled down my cheek. "Just open your eyes. Or if that's too much, just give me a sign. Any sign...please" I begged, still cupping his cold cheeks in my hands. He grabbed my wrist.
"I'm....ok...." He whispered groggily. I smiled and hugged him, ignoring the gut wrenching pain my wound was causing me.
I moved away so Mikasa could say something and she just cried hugging him for a bit. She smiled and eventually got off the cart and on to a spare horse.
" I thought I told you not to do anything stupid" he said smiling.
"That wasn't stupid. Jean is safe with Connie and I'm safe with you...I couldn't sit in that room. It was killing me not knowing if you or Levi were dead or not so I waited at the gate for you..."
"Why are so so bothered about me?" he asked smiling.
My heart began racing. "I just was...okay."
"Do you have feelings for me?" He asked moving around a little bit.
"That's a touch full on don't you think?"
"No, it's just a question. Do you...or not?"
I looked into his big green eyes. "Why are you so persistent?"
"Why are you avoiding my question?"
"Why don't you answer mine"
"You haven't asked one"
"Fine. do you have feelings for me" i asked smiling.
"I asked you first."
"And I asked you second."
Eren smiled. "Yeah. I do. Your turn"
"You can't tell me you have feelings for me and act so cool? Especially when we both could've died today."
"Naomi. I'm telling you because we both nearly died. We can't miss out on anything anymore. I have feelings for you and if you have feelings for me then we do something about that. If not then I move on. Stop acting like such a baby an answer my question."
I smiled. "Yeah. How could I not." I said giggling. "Mean, you've attempted to eat me and then you've saved me."
He sat up and kissed me just as I felt something wrong... I moved away and looked down. There was blood everywhere. Raining blood and then the screams echoed in. I looked at Eren. I needed to have his gear but there was no way he'd give it to me. "Don't you dare" I said looking at him. "Take that gear off right now Eren" I said angrily. He pulled it off and smiled. "I'm not going anywhere." . I apologised to Eren before taking his 3dmg and jumping off the cart. He was too weak to try and stop me so I put it on and ran towards the commotion. Levi and Mikasa were stood there, in shock. There was a Titan? In the walls? Without any damage or anything.....it had to have climbed over the wall or is he a shifter like Eren and Annie?
I ran over to Levi, ignoring my pain.
"What is that?" I asked.
"It's a Titan now leave." He said bluntly.
"You must think I'm stupid to do that? I'm helping"
"Naomi!" he shouted looking at me. "don't be so arrogant. There isn't much more you could do that me and Mikasa won't do already. You will get yourself killed so please...leave." I shook my head and shot off towards the Titan.
"Hey!" I shouted. "I know there is a human inside there but listen, I know the king and i swear if you're a good shifter I will make sure you get treated equally and fairly. But please don't hurt anyone. You must know how hard it is to survive out here so please just don't hurt anybody."
The Titan slowly turned to face me and then howled up at the sky.
"Naomi run now" Levi shouted. Mikasa tried to hold him back as I practically ran for my life....again. I saw a chimney and just jumped into it, falling straight down it into a house, but with this Titan being a human, it knew I was in the house, so it began smashing the roof. I ran around the house looking for a way out when I saw a door to the basement. I ran in, shutting the door then ran deep into the basement. My stomach was bleeding again, but it didn't hurt so I carried on walking around the basement waiting for the shifter to leave. As I was walking around I could see someone cowering in the corner. I walked over and bent down.
"Is this your house?" I asked her. She nodded. "I can help you get out, just trust me okay?..." She looked up an nodded. "Are you hurt" she shook her head and stood up.
"You are" she said pointing at my stomach.
"I know. It doesn't hurt that much so I should be fine."
"There's a small tunnel that leads to my dad's shop, we could maybe get to it and get away before this Titan realised your here."
I nod and take her hand and follow her further into the basement. She removes a cover and begins to go down the ladder so I follow her into a tunnel filled with water.
"The Titan damaged the pipes. It's normally a two minute walk." He said pointing to the small glow of light at the end on the tunnel. I followed her and nodded again. I know the amount of things that could go wrong with my wound but me being arrogant thinking I was invincible, I ignored it as carried on walking on.

We got to the ladder so I climbed up first, making sure it was safe for her and it was so I helped her climb out and slowly walked out of the building, sneaking out and running over To another building. I poked my head around the corner and the Titan was gone but so many scouts were there trying to remove rubble off the house.
"Levi?!" I shouted. I tried to run over but I couldn't so the girl walked over and put my arm around her shoulder and helped me walk. As I got closer to the rubble I began shouting Levi a bit more and he just wasn't there.....well he wasn't there consciously. As I got closer he was lay on the floor under rubble. I let go of the girl and put in all my energy into running over to Levi. I got on the floor and began pulling rubble off him. "Levi!" I screamed. "Wake up." People tried to pull me away as they could probably tell I was injured yet I continued pulling rubble off of him. Then I froze. Everything went dark and I could tell the Titan was here. I ripped the last bit of rubble off and picked Levi up. I looked up at the Titan.
"You better fucking hope he's not dead because if he is I will find out which low life human you are and tear you the fuck apart." I swooshed off still holding Levi.

Me and one of Levi's friends got Levi to the nurses. so they could assess his injuries.
"Nothing is broken he is just unconscious. His head isn't bleeding or bruised and there aren't any lumps either? He has to be the luckiest person alive" she stood up and rubbed my back.
"Eren jaeger was looking for you when he got here. Four rooms down" she said kindly. I nodded and walked out to Erens room. He was handcuffed to the bed. I walked over slowly thinking he was asleep.
"You are lucky I'm handcuffed!" he shouted. "You took my gear and attempted to get yourself killed."
"It wasn't like that...I didn't want to die I just needed to help Levi"
"Yeah! I heard about what you did! Mikasa told me. She also told me he's in the hospital right now because he went to get you and the Titan struck him!"
"What?" I asked sadly.
"You have a skill for killing titans but you have a skill for nearly killing yourself and everyone around you too!!"
"Excuse me?" I asked feeling offended.
"You heard me!" I took his gear off and threw it on the floor.
"You can rot in those fucking handcuffs for all I care" and walked out of his room.
