And the final chapter! What shall we see in this? Pain? Agony? Apprehension? Hospital Rooms? Torture? Rescue? Nothing at all? Safety? That's some questions that'll be answered in this lovely chapter! As usual the thoughts in italics are the thoughts of those around while we're with Eren. Italics are his thoughts when we're with Levi.

Warning. There will be the beginning of a torture scene, including the harming of a character. I'll post a warning right before it, so you can skip it if that is something you don't want to see.

Levi POV

I wake up slowly, not really sure where I am. It's dark, and cramped, I can feel fabric around me. I can feel the air, which is thick and hot from my own breathing. It's almost suffocating as I suddenly realize that my hands are tied together. The thick rope around my hands keeping them stuck together, and it's so dark I can barely see, due to the fabric over my head. Eren! My mind screams out as I start to panic. I hated small cramped spaces, I hated them even more when they were dark.

I start shifting, knowing that anyone watching me already saw me move. I guessed I was in a bag, a pretty big one if I guess. Wait… big for me is still fucking tiny… I growl softly as I try and find a way out of here. The images of what happened rushing back as I feel pain pulse from a small spot on my side. I felt the mark about three inches up from my right hip. A taser mark. That bastard had tasered me, before something was injected into my neck.

I thrashed violently as someone suddenly picks the bag up, and moves a moment before gently setting it on a hard, flat surface. I hear a zipper sound before a hand grabs my arm, yet the lack of light is terrifying. I struggle, kicking out and saying "Let me go you fucking asshole!" He lifts my weight up easily, twisting me around so that he can grab my other arm before he pulls my legs free of the bag.

"I'd suggest you stop that, before I get angry at you my pet." He suddenly says, causing me to snap my head back in an effort to hit his head. He growls softly before my upper body is slammed against a table, causing me to cry out in surprise. He places a arm on my shoulders, bracing his weight against me as he says "Don't move, or I may hurt you before I mean to."

It's not like I could move if I wanted to, seeing as how I'm pinned. All I can do is wait as the reek of rubbing alcohol fills my nose, and the hood over my head is wet by it as I feel him untie the rope around my hands. The second I'm free I try and twist away, only for something to slam against the back of my head. I barely manage to hold back a cry of pain as my head throbs. "I warned you…" he says softly, and he adjusts my arms and tied them again.

He yanks my body up again, and I realize he's barely bigger than I am, yet in the daze I'm currently feeling from the blow to my head I can't even move on my own. He yanks my arms up, and I feel some kind of thick hook catch the rope, propping me up on my toes. He let's me go completely and yanks the hood off, a piece of duct tape going across my mouth. I pant softly and blink painfully at the sudden light.

I look around quickly, seeing a concrete floor with a drain right under my feet. The room seems massive, and darkens beyond my sight. The light I'm seeing is coming from an old fluorescent light in front of and behind me. I see a few bare tables around me before I take notice of the billboards, which have hundreds of photos. Some were of me, some were of the others he's killed.

He had photos of me with Hanji and Erwin at a coffee shop, or taking a run in the morning, of Damien Blackwell eating pizza with his roommate, or grabbing a book at a bookshop. Photos of Aaron Ravenwood lounging on his patio with a drink, or talking to someone at a bar. Of Justin Darklock cooking food in his first floor apartment, his roommate helping him, or swimming at a pool. And of Erik Sullivan as he sat on a park bench ruffling his brother's hair, playing ball with his friends.

I stare in horror and shock as I look slightly to the left, seeing more and more photos of myself, suddenly with Eren as well. He had a photo of Eren and I together on my couch, obviously taken from a distance. Pictures of me feeding the neighbors cat, of Eren and I talking, of us watching Netflix, of us talking to Erwin and Armin, of me packing my bag yesterday. Of Eren and I at the restaurant, of him holding me after Hanji tried to tackle me. There was even one of our first time, me clinging to him as he fucked me.

In every photo Eren's face had been covered with black marker, the other people left alone though. I shiver slightly, standing in Eren's shirt, a pair of sweatpants I snagged from Erens drawer and socks. The fact that I could barely stand on my toes made it worse as I glance around for my attacker, only to see him walk out of the shadows in front of me.

He's barely four inches taller than I am, but I notice the boots he's wearing and say three safely. He's wearing a repairman's uniform, one that looks brand new from where I hang. He has thick blondish white hair, so pale it's almost too light to call it blonde. He has dark, mud brown eyes that seem to see me as a plaything. His build is broader than mine, making him a good three inches wider than I am. I have the feeling that I'd seen him before, something about his eyes.

He suddenly smiles at me, reaching out and grabbing my face in a tight grip. "Oh… how long I've wanted you…" voice soft, like he's remembering something. His grip tightens painfully than as he says "You passed me over, the one person who loved you. You didn't even give me the time of day… instead you went for that green eyed douchebag!" He forces me to look at him, shockingly average face twisted in fury as I try and place where I'd seen him.

But I was coming up blank, I couldn't remember where on earth I might have seen him. I felt like I might have maybe seen him in passing once, but nothing more. Hell, I hadn't even been asked out in over a year before I met Eren. I rarely dated people, they were annoying and unhygienic, this man too. His face then smoothed and he said "But that doesn't matter… you're all mine now. No Eren to keep you from me…"

As I shiver at his words a sudden, high pitched ring goes through the room. He glances at his pocket and I understand it's his phone. His hand drops and he answers it, his other hand moving to my throat and tightening slightly. He glares and listened, suddenly giving a chipper "Sure boss! Be right there." He shuts off the line and glares up at me. He lets my throat go and says "I'll be right back my pet. Don't move."

I glare at him as he leaves, footsteps retreating for a while before I see a door open, a small stream of light appearing before he vanished. I instantly start struggling, finding myself properly trapped. The hook went up at least five inches, I'd need to jump to get down. And I can't from my stance on my toes. So instead I worked the duct tape off my mouth before shouting out "Hello? Anyone there?" Not exactly planning on getting an answer. Please Eren… come find me…

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Eren POV

My shoes pounded up the stairs, my body shouldering by officer who dared get in my way as I ran to my apartment. My feet darted up the stairs, my body moving as fast as possible as I tried to absorb every word around me. Walls are covered in some kind of red paint… half this shits broken… I see Mikasa standing outside my apartment, watching as they check my door for prints.

She looks sharply up at me and says "Eren, you can't be here and you know that." I glare at her and say "What have you found." I knew I should have posed it as a question, but as long as Levi isn't safe I won't be kind. Dammit… She sighs and says "Come on. We can talk in your car. Annie, you take over!" She then grabs my arm and yanked me from the hall, and out of the building.

Normally I'd have been pissed that she hopped into the driver's seat and held her hand out for my keys, but I just handed them over and focused on her, everything else fading away as I dug out the memories I wanted. Normally I'd have waited, but I was to anxious and afraid for his safety to play by my usual rules. My apartment was thoroughly trashed, broken pictures laid upon the floor. But only the ones with me in them, none of my parents or Mikasa. My bed room had been ransacked but nothing really taken.

What nearly made me punch something was an object I saw out of the edge of her sight, a taser. I don't own one it isn't a police issue. Levi did martial arts for years, he goes to the gym once a week. Hell, even I would have trouble making him do something he didn't want to. So they used a fucking taser. I barely keep my already shitty temper in check as we pull into the parking lot. I step out of the car as we stop and I walk into the building.

I hear Mikasa rush after me as I feel a frigid breeze blow past me as I enter the warmth of the building, reminding me of something. I blink and look up at the ceiling, seeing the vents steadily blowing hot air into the building. I come to an abrupt stop, my mind piecing things together. He started at the end of September…

I think back, trying to figure out when the majority of the heating systems began to need repair. This winter had been extremely harsh, my apartment's heating had broken once three weeks ago. And what had I done? I'd called someone to come fix it, like everyone else had. How else could he have gotten someone to just let him into the dorms… and all those other apartments. I feel Mikasa slam into my back since I'd stopped barely inside of the doorway.

I turn around and grab her arms, feeling her tense under my grip as I say "I got it!" Before running off into the precinct, skidding on the tiled floors as I got to my desk. I flipped through files on my desk, snatching up Erik Sullivans and thumbing through it, finding his brothers number and punching it into my desk phone as Mikasa tries to ask me what's going on.

"If I'm right, I may have just found a killer and Levi. If I'm wrong than we have nothing okay? Now shh!" I say as I pull the phone to my ear, feeling her glare at me in both my mind and against my skin as his brother answers after the second ring. "Hello?" I nearly cheer when he answered and said "Hello, this is Eren, remember me? Sorry I left so abruptly earlier but I have a weird question. Did the heating system break in your brother's place not long before he was kidnapped?"

He's quiet a moment before I hear him say "Yeah it was, the place was frigid. Took forever for the guys to come fix it. Eventually one guy finally came, but he was weird to me." I grin and say "Weird how?" He apparently shrugs and says "He only really paid attention to Erik, saying he reminded him of someone special to him. He left his bag here accidentally and I had to go to school so Erik stayed late so he could come by and grab it."

I nearly jump with joy and ask "Could you give me a name?" He thinks a moment and says "Yeah, Deral Holmes. He pronounced it like Feral. He worked for the company out apartment used. I think it was called 'Smith and Jones Heating and Air'" I nod and bid him goodbye before snatching up another file. I flipped open Blackwell's folder and call the school he went to. "Hello? I'm detective Eren Jaeger. I have a few questions for you. Did the heat go out in any of the dorms this winter?"

A woman is on the other end and she says "Yes it did. Why?" I nod and ask "What company did you use to fix it?" She hums and I hear here flipping through some papers before saying "A company called 'Smith and Jones Heating and Air'." I nod and write that down on the pad beside me and say "Thank you. Do you happen to know what worker came to fix it?" More paper flipping before she says "Two men came. One Daniel Forbes and one Deral Holmes."

I thank her again and write the two names down before hanging up. I reach over to Levi's desk and grab Justin Darklock's file. I flip through it as Mikasa hovers over me, trying to follow what I'm doing. I grab my phone again and punch in the numbers to his friend's phone. He answered on the third ring. "Hello?" I nearly smile and say "Hello, this is detective Eren Jaeger. Before Justin went missing did the heating in your apartment go out?"

He pauses a moment and says "Uhh. No? The heating for the family next to us did though. Justin house sat for them while they came and fixed it. Justin was all creeped out by the guy though, he kept commenting on how he looked like someone special to him." I nod and say "Okay. Do you have a name? Or the company he worked for?" He's silent a moment and says "Wait. I think I actually have a picture of the guy. Justin was texting me about him while he worked."

I grin and say "Could you email that to me? The whole chat?" He agrees and I tell him my number before thanking him and letting him go. My phone vibrates and I open it, seeing the whole chat between Justin and his friend. The picture is a little fuzzy but I clearly see 'Smith and Jones Heating and Air' written across the shoulders of his uniform. He's got pale blonde hair that's nearly white and a broad frame. But I'm guessing he's a smaller guy, based on how he's crouched down.

I skim the text and see Justin call him Deral Holmes. I nod before grabbing Aaron Ravenwoods file as Mikasa seems on edge. Her mind filled with thought about how maybe I'm obsessed. "Mikasa. I'll explain to both you and Commander Erwin after this call." I say gently to her before punching in the number to his neighbor. You better Eren. What sounds like an elderly woman answers the phone and says "Hello?"

"Ma'am? This is detective Eren Jaeger. Do you happen to know if the heating went out in Aaron Ravenwood's apartment before he went missing?" She is quiet a moment before saying "Ahh. Yes it was, he stayed with me while it was out. A kind man named Deral Holmes fixed it for him. Is that all you need?" I thank her and hang up, grinning and dropping the file on my desk. I grab the pad and Mikasa's arm, running into Erwin's office.

"Sir! I found our Rapist!" I say, smiling at him. He looks beyond confused as I say "And I know why he took Levi." His confusion grows as I open the notepad in my hand and say "Sir? Do you remember when the heat went out in Levi's apartment? He stayed with you that week?" He nods and I press on saying "Do you remember when that was?" He nods and says "The very end of September."

I nod and say "Okay. My guess is that Levi told you about the guy right? What did he describe him as?" Erwin shrugged and said "Unassuming? He stared a bit too much and made him want to kick him? Other than that nothing much. He couldn't even remember what the guys name was." I nod and say "That was roughly two days before Aaron Ravenwood was kidnapped and then killed. Think about it, this guy's hunting choice is almost based off how Levi looks."

He blinks and thinks it over, nodding and saying "Levi mentioned someone leaving something on his car once about a day after that. I think it was a flower. He thought someone had fucked up and given it to the wrong person. Now how does this tie into everyone else?" I point at my pad and say "Aaron's heat was out and was fixed before he went missing by someone named Deral Holmes.

The same thing happened with Justin and Damien and Erik. All of these places have the same Heating and Air company called 'Smith and Jones Heating and Air' working as their repair men. Each time the same guy came to work on it. Than our victims went missing, and I think he's the one kidnapping them. Who questions a handyman?" Erwin's eyes widen as he stands rapidly, saying "Follow me."

It's a rapid almost run to an office, where Erwin rapidly started a hunt on Deral Holmes. It took a good thirty minutes to hunt him down before we started a check on any property he or his family name is renting or owning. We eventually found a old ass warehouse that had been willed to him by his dead dad at the beginning of September. I jot down the address, Erwin rushing to mobilize a team and sending Hanji to get a warrant.

I yank on a vest, watching the time. 'It's been six hours since he's been gone.' Move. Let's get this shit together. Where is he? Let's get moving. How did he put this together? I stretch as Armin steps into the room, grabbing my arm and watching me carefully. You have to listen. Listen for this asshole because we have to much to lose if you don't. Use every gift you have to catch him, and then drag his ass back here. I nod to him, a few people questioning what the hell we were doing.

I walk out of the locker room and walk out to the others, finding Mikasa and Annie climbing into a car. "Get in Eren, and give me directions." Annie says, climbing into the driver's side. Erwin stays behind as I climb behind Annie and we're off, me rapidly firing off directions. The place is a good hour away, meaning I still had an hour before I could beat this guy into the next week. 'Be safe. I'll be there soon Levi.'

Levi POV

I jump when the door opens, that bastard walking back in here. He gives me a smile, one that didn't even register on the 'kind' scale. He dropped the bag in his hand onto the table, watching me carefully. He reached over and pulled out a roll of leather, setting it on the table to my right and unrolling it. I see a plethora of shiny metal objects, knives by the looks of it. Fuck…

(AN: Alright. Here's the beginning of it. Skip down till you see another bolded space like this if you don't want to read it.)

He picks up a smaller knife, barely as big as my hand. He steps over to me, making me try and move away as my arms ache from the pull. He grabbed my neck and pulled me closer, yanking off what's left of the duck tape. The grip on my neck keeping me still as he says "Move and I'll hurt you. Stay still and I'll be gentle." I grimace at him but remain still, wary of the blade in his hand. He lifts it up, and it moves out of my sight to the right before I feel a tug on my shirt.

I try and pull away only to hiss as the knife sliced the top of my shoulder. "I said don't move." He says simply, blood dripping down my chest and back. He moved the knife to the other side and slices through the top I'm wearing before yanking it down to my waist as I kick him. He grabbed my leg as it sinks into his stomach, twisting it painfully as I try and kick him again. This time the blade sinks into my right calf, making me cry out.

He ripped the blade out before dropping my leg. Reflexive tears prickling in my eyes as he pinches my chin, making me look at him. I glare at him, pulses of pain coming from my leg as blood starts to wet my pants. He looks down at my neck and his face twists in fury, letting me realize what he's noticing. Eren left a ton of hickeys on me, and I have a few love bites as well.

I chuckle, knowing I shouldn't be riling this guy up but I still say "What? Eren left them." If anything he looks angrier at my words, and I never see the hit coming. Only feeling his hand strike my face as his grip on my chin vanished. My head swings to the side as my face stings, I could easily feel the outline of his handprint on my face. He grabbed my face again, hand over my mouth this time as he says "I could have made you so happy. You seemed so angry and sad when I saw you the first time.

Like nothing went right. But you ignored me, ignored my gift, ignored how I felt for you. Instead you spread your legs for that bastard! Why? Why wasn't I enough? Why do you want him instead?" Fuck fuck fuck. How the hell do I respond? His grip tightens on my face and I try to pull away again, the pain making me heart race. He moves his hand down to my neck and squeezes a little, watching me and asking again "Why." I try and pull away again and say "I don't even fucking know you!"

(AN: You can start reading here. The scene above isn't that bad, but I don't want to upset anyone.)

That was the last thing I should have said. I think as I see his fury rise, he moves to strike me again before growling and backing off a bit. "You're just a little wary. You'll warm up to me. I just have to give you time to realize you feelings for me." He says suddenly, almost to himself. I glare at him as his grip tightens a hair at my look.

He goes to speak again before the door smashed open. "ON THE GROUND." I hear someone shout, people rushing inside. He turns to run, trying to get to away. I kick him in the knee, making him tumble to the ground as I heard bone crack. Officers run over, skidding to a halt and grabbing him, yanking him to his feet. They cuff him as he struggles, reading him his rights as Eren runs up.

"EREN!" I shout happily, thankful that he managed to find me. "LEVI!" He shouts back, looking me over fearfully as Mikasa says "Wait!" Why? This hurts! I want to say before she grabs another officers camera and snapped a picture before saying "Okay. We needed evidence. Get him down, and someone call a medic!" They drag jackass out of here as Eren places his gloved hands on my hips and softly says "I'm sorry it hurts. I'm gonna lift you by the waist and you move your hands past the hook okay?"

I nod as he lifts me, allowing me to move my hands away and let me stand on the floor. I cry out as weight is placed on my leg, pain arcing up from the wound as Eren lifts my hips up and holds me. I want to bury my face in his chest but manage to resist. "Just a moment love. Be patient, we just need-" he cuts off as someone wraps a sheet around my shoulders. "We're gonna let you pull that around yourself. That'll keep any evidence from contamination and Eren can carry you out to the ambulance outside." Mikasa says gently.

I nod as she stepped forward and said "I'm gonna untie your hands okay?" I nod sharply as she quickly untied the rope around them, making me hiss in pain as it had rubbed marks in some places. I pull the sheet around me as Eren picked me up in one quick movement, pulling some of the sheet up so I can lay my head against him. I move as close as possible as he says "I'm so sorry. I should have been here sooner. I shouldn't have left you home alone."

I give his stomach a light punch and think quit. You can't change it, and you saved me. You saved me from that filthy bastard… thoughts of what happened replaying in my mind as Eren growls softly, but his grip doesn't change on me as we walk out to an ambulance. The paramedic there has Eren climb into the ambulance and set me on the stretcher. Don't leave. I think as Eren goes to pull away.

He stops as the paramedic says "Hey. I'm Matthew. I'm gonna need to take a look at that shoulder. I can control the bleeding while we get to the hospital." I shake my head, pulling away and saying "You may want look at my leg first. It got stabbed, this is just a cut." He nods and gently pulled the sheet away from my leg as Mikasa says "He's it. You can go if you need. Eren you're gonna ride with him, I'm riding with Deral."

We nod at her before Matthew shuts the doors and tells his partner to start driving. Eren moved to the couch like space to my left, staying within arms reach as he said "They'll take a statement after you're admitted. Once that's done you should be free to go." I felt curious as to why he said 'go' instead of 'go home' and say "Okay. I'm still staying at your place right?"

He smiles and says "Maybe. Jackass trashed the place pretty bad, so I may have to clean it first." I nod as he smiled at me, smiling softly back before Matthew said "I'm gonna have to press this against the wound to stop the bleeding okay?" I nod at him but still crying out at the the action, Eren grabbing my hand with his still gloved one. I squeeze it as Matthew works quickly, wrapping the wound before grabbing out a blanket and laying it over me.

I hadn't realized I was shivering till then, yet Eren doesn't move as Matthew asks "May I see that wound now?" I nod and move slightly, letting him tend to the wound. Once he's controlled the bleeding there he starts doing basic things like taking a pulse and checking my breathing. I don't like that, not wanting to really be touched by anyone at the moment. Eren rubs gentle circles in the back of my hand as he works.

It's a while before we get to the hospital, Eren not leaving my side until we get into the ER. They made him step away as they checked some things, looking at my leg and shoulder. Eren! Come back. I see pain flash across his face at my plea as he's standing a good ten feet away. He shakes his head minutely as he watches me while they work, setting up IV's and taking samples. It's three hours of taking pictures and giving statements and letting them check me over before they move me to my own room and Eren follows.

What happened? Do you know him? Was he familiar? Can you go over it again? There questions rattle around my brain as I shiver, laying under the blanket they gave me. I've got a bag of fluids linked to my arm, they gave me something for pain and bandaged me up and told me I wasn't allowed to walk for three weeks. Eren sits in a chair beside my bed as I pout and say "Three weeks Eren! I can't just not walk for a three weeks!"

He raised an eyebrow and said "They said you had to be off your leg. You can use crutches, I could carry you, You could use a wheelchair, the possibilities are endless. You won't be confined to a bed." I pouted silently nonetheless, not enjoying the fact that I had to also stay here for three days while they made sure I was healthy. I also wasn't allowed to go to the bathroom on my own because of my leg, it hurt to pick anything up with my arm, and Eren would have to leave soon.

Eren laughed at my thoughts and said "Oh little Levi, I think you'll be fine. It's just two hours, then I'll be back to stare at you while they put this fucker away." I glare at him suddenly and say "Stay away from the guy Eren." He blinks in shock and says "I wasn't-" I shake my head, crossing my arms painfully and saying "I want you to promise. Stay as far away from him as possible. Don't even try and figure him out, just stay away."

Eren glared at me, seeming to be honestly angry with me. I stare at him, not caving as I say "You already got it from me. You'll have to appear in court. Just wait till than, I don't want your head filled with what that sick bastard has in his." He grimaces, looking down at the floor before letting out a deep sigh. I relax a bit as he says "Fine. I'll try to stay away from him, but you do to. Unless the court orders us or Erwin does, neither of us go anywhere near him." I nod and give him a tiny smile before saying "Deal. Now off you get." He smirks at me and stands, grabbing his coat and kissing my nose before leaving. I smile after him, the beeping of the heart monitor jumping for a moment.

I turn enough to glare at it, hating that they have a goddamn monitor hooked up to me at all times. Please let me go home. I huff softly, not liking to be bored. It makes me restless, which makes me want to walk. I groan as I grab the remote from the side table, turning the TV on and flipping through the channels, trying to pass as much time as possible. Ugh I'm bored. There's nothing to do… I sigh heavily, laying across the bed and wincing sharply at the pain in my shoulder. This is gonna take forever.

Levi POV - Three Days Later

Finally. Finally. Finally. I'm nearly bouncing in my seat, excited as hell that I'm finally able to leave. I can finally get out of here and go back to Eren's place and actually sleep instead of jumping at every odd sound because this god forsaken hell hole won't let Eren stay the night. And nightmares are no fun after not sleeping for two days due to that drug in my system, especially when I have no one to talk to. Save my phone, and I've called Eren at odd hours every day and night for the last three days.

But now it's finally noon and I'm being discharged, the thought exciting me after three days of playing on my phone, watching soap operas and staring into the abyss. It felt like forever between Eren's visits and everyone else's. I hide a grin as Eren and a nurse walk in. She smiles at me and says "Ready to go?" I nod happily, having already managed to get dressed in the outfit Eren left me.

She nods and rolls a wheelchair inside. I glare at it before she says "You can't walk, so this is the fastest way. It's also policy, so hop in." I glare angrily at it, annoyed that it exists before Eren gently helped me into it, mostly picking me up and setting me in it. I pout slightly up at him as he chuckled. Then it's a peaceful ride down to the floor level as Eren went ahead of us and grabbed his car. Hurry up!

Eren pulls up close by and gets out, walking over and picks me up, walking over and setting me in the passenger seat, letting me set everything up before climbing into the driver's side. I happily smile as we make our way back to Eren's place, the two of us talking as he drives. "According to Erwin he hates me to the core, but he's still going to have us both at the trial in ten days."

I hum and say "I can understand that. So long as I get to watch this bastard get put away." He chuckles and says "Don't worry about that, he's going away for a while, and that's if Hanji doesn't eat her hands on him before hand." I snort as we change to more peaceful topics. Before long we're back at his place, Eren picking me up and carrying me inside. Hey! This can be your workout for the next three weeks!

Eren snorts sharply and let's out a laugh, smiling as he lets me open the door. He gently moves me inside, setting me on the couch. I pull him onto the couch with me, pressing him down until his backs against the cushions and crawling on top of him, setting my head against his heart. I smile at the strong beating I hear, wrapping both my arms around his chest. We're here. I'm safe. And you're safe.

Eren hugs me close, holding me tightly and saying "You are safe, and I love you. So very much Levi." I hug his chest tightly as he holds me, kissing my forehead as I reply "I love you too. So goddamn much." And I never want to lose you. I'm holding him tightly as he hugs me, my head laying over his heart as a final thought goes through my mind. If this is how I live for the rest of my life, then I'll die happy.

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Aaaaaaaaand that's it! That's the long awaited ending of this Fic! Thank you everyone for waiting so much with all of this. I'm so sorry this too so long.
