《20 days (Eremika)》Epilogue 3/4

Mikasa's POV

Today was Christa's party. I was with the girls finished getting our hair done before picking out dresses for the party.

I tried not to think about my death. I only had about 20 hours left of this day till I'm officially done.

It was now 9:54 and Christa was adjusting my dress.

"I don't get what's so special about wearing a dress to some party, it isn't prom after all" I blurted out.

Christa giggled. "I don't want you to regret not wearing a dress this fabulous, Eren will admire you and I'm pretty sure he is going all out for you to" I saw her wink at me from behind in the mirror.

I shrugged. I to. Looked at myself through the mirror.

It was good I wasn't wearing to much make up to not recognize myself but the black silky dress that reached to the tip of my feet with a small gray belt of diamonds hugging around my small waist amazed me.

I'll admit I don't really look as bad. My hair was straightened and I held a small hand purse.

I had tooken my pill not to long ago as soon as I arrived here.

I decided to make this night last without me falling over.

"Your so pretty Mikasa" Christa admired her work on me. We was now upstairs and the rest of the girls was downstairs greeting every guest member.

"Mhm, I'm glad to be here" I told her. "Yeah, to bad Annie couldn't make it though it would of been nice to let her celebrate your last few moments together" Christa frowned.

I shrugged. "I won't let her get in the way, nothing to be mad about" I pushed the thought away.

There was a knock on the door making Christa squeal as she sashayed gracefully to the door and swiftly opened it revealing a familiar figure I barely recognize. "Thanks my lady" Eren bowed to Christa who exited her room after lifting up her dress a bit as a reply.

The door softly closed and we both stood there alone.

"Er-" "your really pretty" he says closing in the space between us and cupping my face.

"Thanks" I blushed. "You look really decent yourself" I complimented looking at his fancy attire of a black tux.

"Thanks but you look better" he flirts pinching my cheek which sends flames flowing through my body.

"Wanna go to the party? Downstairs and have some fun or would you rather stay up here?" He asked shoving his hands in his front pockets.

"Let's go downstairs, I wanna remember this moment" I decide and arm-in-arm we walk downstairs.

The party looked really lit. It was glowing lights, a disco hung up, a DJ stood before the people jamming out music, lots of people that I'm pretty sure goes to our school dances wildly on the floor and three long tables of food was in the back where I'm likely to see Connie and Sasha.

"Wow Christa did a really amazing job" I say astonished. "It's so ravenous in here" I smiled.

"Yeah it is cool in here, wanna dance?" Eren asked. "Sure!" I exclaimed before he carries me through the crowd. We both dance together but it's not a slow dance so we're just getting our groove on.

By the looks of it I'm not the worse dancer here at all.

"Hey wassup party people!" A familiar partying voice says and we both look up to see Jean.

"Hey Jean!" We both say loud enough through the music.

"You can dance Mika" Jean winks at me. Or whatever he did with his eyes but I just burst into giggles. "Your doing great to" I replied.

"Yeah what are you doing? The horse" Eren joked.

"Whatever Yeager, your lucky I'm not in a fighting mood but anyway may I ask your lady for a quick dance?" Jean asked breathlessly.

We both exchange glances and Eren shrugs before gesturing me over to him. I give him a thankful smile before shaking my head and walking over to him.

Eren's POV

After watching Mikasa move along with Jean I decided to make my way to the food area.

I didn't like the idea of Mikasa dancing with Jean but it was her last day and his last moment with her so it didn't really matter.

Plus there was no time for me to get Jealous.

"Hey Eren!" I hear a pair call my name and looked up to see Connie and Sasha with a plate of wings.

"Hey you to" I greeted. "Bro did you try these buffalo wings?? They are bustin!" Connie squealed with delight while throwing in another wing that I guess is boneless.

"Yeah the sauce is good!" Sasha informs. "Anyway why aren't you with your girl?" Connie says.

"Oh she's with Jean want her to enjoy her moments with everyone" I tell.

"That's sweet of you, well then can we borrow her? There having a challenge soon and I want Mikasa to experience it" Sasha asked. "Sure" I give a small smile.

Honestly I wanted Mikasa to myself but I couldn't hog her so why not share this once.

"Thanks Eren! I'ma go stuff more wings in my purse" Sasha licks her lips before making her way to the table.

I wave them off and turned my focus to the big increasing crowd.

I sighed. I can't believe this was really happening. I try hard not to think about it the closer time gets but I can't help it. I'm going to miss her so much.

I see her. I see Mikasa being twirled around by Bertholdt with Reiner and Jean following behind. She seemed so happy.

Her eyes met mine and for a second my heart skips a beat. She looks so peaceful, like she doesn't even know she is about to die.

It wasn't until now I noticed the burning sensation in my eyes that has formed. I blink a bit and tears slid down.

I wiped my eyes and was abruptly interrupted when my phone vibrated, startling me.

Anne: Meet me outside. Now.

Eren: okay

What did Annie want?

Why didn't she want to come in? I looked back at the dancing Mikasa and quickly put my phone up, grabbed a cup of juice and walked outside

Once I was out I noticed a small figure dressed in a white thigh length dress and had a golden necklace on. Silver earrings glistened from the light.

"What do you want?" I asked. When she turned around mascara is running down her face.

"Jesus Anne what's wrong?" I asked a bit worried.

"I did a bad thing. It's all my fault Eren all of this!" She cries. "Annie tell me" I say as nonchalantly as I could manage. What was she talking about? It was scaring me.

"It's Mikasa. I should have never took my anger out on her" she heaves.

"What. Did. You. Do!" I urged her to say now pissed. I choked her shoulders and gritted my teeth.

She jumps. "I took the pills Eren! Mikasa is dying because of me, I took some of her pills when she came over and once Bertholdt found out he forced me to find them, but I threw them away and now she's really going to die" she explains through tears.

"You!...." I trail off and started at her uncertain of what to say. "Why! How could you!" I yelled at her full of rage.

"I loved you Eren, I want to be yours only" she cries. "Well I loved her! And now the love of my life is going to die because of your selfish, immature, bratty actions!" I yelled at her.

I let go of her roughly hearing her yelp as she fell to the ground. I ran back inside.

Although I didn't want to ruin Mikasa's precious moment I just couldn't bare the fact that Annie did all of this to an innocent girl. Mikasa had to know.

Once I got in there was a loud sound of glass shatter and screams engulfed throughout the room.

Everyone started rushing to the commotion.

"What happened?!"

"OMG she fainted! Someone call an ambulance!"

"Is that blood??!"

Mikasa...

I opened my phone and called Hanji while I ran to the center of the crowd pushing through everyone.

"Eren?"

"Hanji! Get an ambulance Mikasa fainted!" I yelled into the phone once I reached the pale body.

Blood oozed from certain parts of her body. Her mouth, head, arms.

"Dammit Mikasa! Can you stand?!" I asked kneeling down to her.

"Fuck what happened?!" The familiarity of Ymir's voice entered my ears.

"She fainted, help me get her outside!" I exclaimed. "Gotcha" Ymir replied and in one move picked her up bridal style. "Get out the way people! This is my friend!" Ymir yelled at the curious, terrified party goers.

An ambulance already was outside. Everyone ran outside and Ymir lifted Mikasa's bloody body onto the emergency bed.

"Mikasa! Please tell me your going to be alright" I asked her with tears in my eyes.

My hands dragged down hers. All she did was look at me.

"I love you Eren, I'll be fine promise" She swallows a large lump in her throat.

I kissed her forehead. Then her cheek. And two times on her lips.

They pushed me away from Mikasa and hoisted the emergency bed in the ambulance where she was immediately rushed to the hospital.

"I'm sorry Eren" Christa apologized.

"It's not your fault, it's Annie's" I assure her. "Eren! Get in!" I hear Hanji's voice shout out.

"We'll meet you at the hospital!" Sasha yelled to me as I entered Hanji's car.

Once I closed the door Hanji sped to the hospital. "I can't believe this is happening" I say starting to hyperventilate.

"Eren calm down, I'm scared just as you are" Hanji sighs shakily. "I tried to prepare myself for this moment but I wasn't ready, I didn't know she fall out so early, she took a pill before the party" I recall.

"It cancelled out Eren, remember? Her sickness, the drugs decrease her lifespan by two times... Eventually it would happen" She remarked. "So even with the extra pills she would still be in this condition?" I asked. "Yes"

We arrived at the hospital and we both got up and took an emergency door inside and went inside Mikasa's room where she was located being hooked up to all types of machines. I gasped. "Oh god"

"Call your parents Eren, and stay in the waiting room, I'll be back and I promise I'll do everything I can to make sure we save her" Hanji instructs.

"No Hanji I need to watch, I don't want to leave her" I protest. "Eren just do it! It'll scare you when the littlest things happen, go sit" she demanded.

I just nodded and inhaled deeply before going to the waiting room. Right now I was so scared that I was shaking and tears streamed down endlessly.

I sat down in the waiting room and since there was barely people there I was able to cry softly to myself.

For about ten minutes of endless crying I still couldn't find the courage to stop. I try to be brave about this situation but I was so scared right now.

I was loosing the love of my life.

"Eren!" I hear multiple voices call me and didn't dare look up to meet the worried gazes of my friends.

"How is she?" Jean asked sitting beside me.

"I don't know" I croaked before wiping my eyes. "I couldn't stay but seeing her attached to so many machines broke my heart" I shook my head in disbelief. Because what I saw, I didn't want to believe was real.

"We're sorry Eren" everyone says in unison.

"Don't apologise..." I trailed off.

I wanted to point out Annie and what she did but that would put Bertholdt on the spot and then again Hanji said how many pills she had left didn't matter because they all cancelled out.

So basically to put it Annie did nothing wrong. "How long would it be?" Christa asked who was hugging on tightly to Ymir.

"From the looks of it, I'm sure this would take a while" Connie replies.

"Good thing I bought some of those chicken wings from the party, I wasn't dare going to come here without food" Sasha slightly chuckled. "Can I get some?" Connie asked. "Sure, dig in, literally" Sasha replied.

"You two are disgusting" Jean grimace repulsively.

Lucky couple, they don't have to worry about whose bout to die I thought with envy.

And here I am sitting down waiting impatiently for Mikasa's results.

Another 30 minutes passed. Everyone was either talking, on their phones, reading magazines or watching TV but all I did was keep my eyes fixated on the doors waiting for Hanji to come out. When doctors came out I would ask if Mikasa was alright but all they would do was either shrug in confusion or tell me to wait patiently in my seat.

"It's okay Eren, I'm sure she's alright after all she doesn't want to give up on you" Bertholdt comforted me.

I just sniffed and stayed quiet. "Oh my Eren!" My mom cries out and runs over to me and hugs me tightly.

"Are you okay?!" She exclaimed cupping my face. "It's not me you should be worried about! It's Mikasa, she's hooked up to lots of wires, she was bleeding so much mom I'm so sc-" "Chill Eren!" They all hushed me.

"How can ya be so calm? That's your friend that's dying! My girlfriend!" I bursted out.

"Eren it's going to be alright" My mom said in the most soothing tone.

I couldn't concentrate. My legs was wobbly and my vision was blur. "I-I need a bathroom" I managed to say when I stood up.

"Eren..." My mom's voice trails.

Once I take a step. I fall and my vision blackens.

"EREN!" Everyone shrieked. The last thing I heard before I blacked out.
