Mikasa sat at the small desk in her and Annie's room, looking down at her piece of work even though it was 2am. Annie was out in the gym already and Mikasa was left alone to look down at her paper, but she didn't read the words printed in ink on the sheet. She watched droplets splash onto the words and the ink started to run. Everything was so wrong and she didn't know what to believe, think, or do. Where did she stand with Eren? She was terrified for him, she'd seen Levi the way he was and she was starting to have her doubts on her previous opinions. Was he really bad or had he told Eren the truth? She'd seen the scars on his wrists when he'd been drunk one time and not thought to cover them up properly, she'd seen him standing smoking in the street, she'd even seen him crying out there once. Was it her fault? Was she like the tears dropping onto her paper right now? Eren the paper and Levi the words, fine and perfect together until a drop of water splashed onto it, crinkling the paper and smudging the ink. Whatever problems Levi had had, she'd made worse. Eren had obviously helped him and now she'd broken them both. What was going on in Levi's mind, maybe she was only a small part of what was going on, but she was certainly a part of it. There was no escaping that fact. But what could she do? Eren wasn't the only one who had noticed Levi's habits and she was worried that this would kill him, it wasn't just Eren that thought that. He needed help but she didn't know if he even wanted to stop, maybe his aim WAS to die. But what would happen to Eren if Levi died? Would Eren turn to cutting? Drugs? Alcohol? ...Suicide? She didn't want to lose Eren, she loved him too much. He was her brother and she cared dearly about him. She couldn't lose him. She couldn't. Then it would be HER to turn to those things and the habits Levi had started would go along a chain. She dabbed at the damp paper with her sleeve but she couldn't take back the damage the tear had done. The ink was still smudged and the paper crinkled. Had she permanently damaged Levi? And Eren for that matter? What was going to happen now? She felt guilty. She felt confused. She felt helpless and so did the other two.

The three of them all felt alone and separate from the others.

Levi couldn't go to Eren for help and he felt Mikasa hated him.

Mikasa felt she'd hurt them both and was terrified that she'd lost Eren.

Eren didn't know what he could do for Levi and he didn't know where he stood with Mikasa after the other night.

They were all alone.

Alone.

(A/N:) Hey everyone! Thanks everyone for your AMAZING reviews, I am glad you are liking my story, your feedback means a LOT! I was actually going to mention this the other week and wrote it but deleted it: Paragraphs don't work. I don't know why, but every time I try and space paragraphs out more, deletes them and there's nothing I can do. Do you want me to use lines to break them? Or have a symbol on a line to break them e.g. o.O.o? That's just a random example lol. Do let me know! Thanks :). Sorry I have only just updated, I was ill and stuff... But I've uploaded now :). Thanks for reading, byee!
