He wasn't dangerous, he couldn't understand why people insisted on saying he was a menace. Always and always, everyday shoving pills down his throat, telling him he had to for his own good, terrible liars, if he could he would hurt them, but then again that would make him a bad person which he was not.
"Eren, you'll feel bad if you don't take these" the blond tried, he was nice, he didn't mind him, he was not like the others that looked down on him with disgust. Doctor Armin pushed the small container against his hand, insisting gently "Please, for me and Mikasa, she would be so proud if she saw you taking them". A small noise left him, agreeing, he allowed the doctor to open the container and give him two little blue pills, without waiting for water he swallowed them dry, earning a disapproval look from Armin.
He didn't turn to look at the other man when he heard scribbling, he knew he was writing about him, if it was Armin he didn't mind.
"Eren, you will be meeting your new psychologist soon, I want you to promise me you will be good this time" he felt warm hands cupping his own "Do you understand?"
He nodded, if Armin asked him to then he would.

Armin sighed, looking at his notes on the patient he had just been with. He had recently finished his degree and already dealing with such raw and hard cases, what could he even expect in his future while working at this ward.
He jumped when two arms circled around him and a squee rang in his ear, it took him a lot not to spill his coffee everywhere "Arrrrmmmiiiiinnn!"
"D-Dr Hanji, hello" the brunette rubbed their cheeks together enthusiastically "How's my favourite newcomer doing? visited many patients already?" she asked taking a sit besides him. The cafeteria was quiet, besides him and Hanji there were only other three people, all concentrated on papers or their laptops.
"Not many.. I was with Reiner and … And Eren" he sighed shoulders dropping, he heard a sigh leaving Hanji and her cheerfulness flattening "He was really quiet today too, didn't look me in the eye once, he didn't talk and I spent nearly two hours coaxing him to take his pills.."
"Well at least you managed to make him swallow them voluntarily, that's very good Armin" she said reassuring him with a hand on his shoulder, Hanji was everything Armin could have asked for in an upperclassman, the psychologist guided him ever since day one and although her hyper personality sometimes seemed to be all over the place Armin was thankful for it, it seemed to counterbalance the gloominess of his day when he had to deal with the young patient with green eyes and shaggy hair.
"How was Reiner?" he was pulled from his thoughts looking at the person joining them, Annie sat down in front of him "Was he good? I changed his prescription last week" Armin nodded and flipped away Eren's page on his notebook
"He was okay, and yesterday too, he seems way less aggressive now that his been seeing you Annie" he smiled at her "I talked to him for a while and he was more articulate than usual and even talked a bit about his sessions with you!" a small smiled graced the woman's lips as she nodded.
To them there was nothing better than seeing a patient recover, even if it was slow, and Reined was young like many other patients so seeing him get better meant he could maybe lead a normal life one day, he felt a sting in his chest, now if only Eren showed some kind of improvement as well..
"Don't look so down Armin, you should be glad! besides we can't heal them all at once!" Hanji said standing up, guessing what was going on on the younger doctor's mind "now go back to your duties Armin, there's still much to do before we get to go home" he nodded getting up, he bid Annie farewell and followed Hanji.

His bed croaked as he turned, tired, always tired. A few years ago he would have been bright and happy but he just couldn't bring himself to even try. He didn't have many times like this, a time with a clear mind, he knew it probably wouldn't last long.
He covered his eyes, he could feel tears prickling at his eyes as he remembered how he had dug his fingers into the tender flesh beneath them, how the eyes that looked back at him opened wide in fear, as the mouth tried to scream in vein, he remembered it's warmth , he remembered the commotion, the arms that gripped him, that tore him away, the marks he left on that throat and then he remembered the disappointed look on Mikasa's face.
He stifled a scream, covering his mouth desperately, no no no not Mikasa as well, why would she make him that face? why her too? he had done so much for her, how could she.
His wet eyes had evolved to violent sobs that shook him, no he couldn't cry he promised Armin he would be good, he promised him he couldn't break his promise. He knew Armin would be sad if he came and saw him like this, he had to be good, he would be good.
His door opened, Armin had come to pick him up "I'll be good" a smile, Armin smiled at him, Armin was good.

Levi read through the file, sitting back in his leather chair, legs crossed. He looked at the name Eren Jaeger , big eyes stared back, 15, German, Spanish mother Carla Jaeger (Deceased) , German Father Grisha Jaeger (Deceased) , Adopted sister Mikasa Ackerman.
Schizophrenia
Other associated problems - Dissociative Personality Disorder
Special Caution - Patient can turn agressive, do not hesitate in restraining him during sessions if necessary.
He read more information on the boy, he was ready for him, he had taken in all sort of fucked up shit, but a twist in his gut told him this would probably be one of the hardest cases, his eyes kept wondering to the Age : 15 . So young, so many problems.
He reviewed the medication the boy was taking, a tch making a way to his lips, so annoying some doctors simply turned him nearly as murderous as his patients, hi sigh scribbling some notes next to the Medication tittle.
A knock sounded on his door, and he knew the time to meet his new patient had come.
Notes: I hope you liked this first chapter, I hope to make longer chapters in the future. I will also try to go back to writing my other fic, my life took some turns so I stopped writing for a while.
