Everything Stays (Eren X Mikasa)

Summary:

𝙚𝙧𝙚𝙣 𝙮𝙚𝙖𝙜𝙚𝙧 𝙓 𝙢𝙞𝙠𝙖𝙨𝙖 𝙖𝙘𝙠𝙚𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙣

 

(𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚 𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐬 || 𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝟏𝟑𝟗) Now that the war is over, the only thing Eren can do is look after the people he deeply cared about. Seeing how things were like back then, he couldn't process how much things have changed despite everything looking the same as before. Missing those good times, he has no choice but to say goodbye, because he knows that his help is no longer needed now that everything is okay.

Notes:

Quick story time before I get into the story:

I was doing my chores and I was changing my bedsheets, I asked Alexa to play songs so that I wouldn't feel lonely while I was doing chores. Suddenly the song "Everything Stays" came and I was just listening to it until I realized it kinda fit Eren and Mikasa. So then I realized it and I was dying inside. Time skip to when I was helping my mom cook, I suddenly got the idea to make an animatic about the last chapter of Attack on Titan using the song because it just fitted perfectly. But then I eventually realized that I actually don't have the time to draw a bunch of frames for a video that'll most likely flop. And, it'd be hard for me to make an animatic since, number one, I don't have an art style-ish, number 2, I draw on my VERY SMALL phone, number 3, I don't think I'll actually dedicate time to draw and edit and stuff.

The next day I was just doing my stuff, doing chores, and attending mass until the idea of making an animatic hit my head, but, what if I make it into fan fiction instead? Then, here it is...

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Chapter Text

"Let's go in the garden, you'll find something waiting"

 

 

It was quiet. Mikasa was alone in the house, preparing to leave. Levi, Gabi, and Falco went out, probably to take a stroll. Mikasa tiredly tied her hair, leaving her bangs free, fixing her blouse, and putting on a long-sleeved blouse over it.

She finally got her scarf. She let out a heavy sigh and put it on. She walked by the door, remembering the news that was brought to her today, "Armin and the others will be arriving today." This made Mikasa smile. She was stuck in this "isolation-like" state that she couldn't leave. Even with Levi, Falco, and Gabi around, she couldn't help but feel alone. She missed him and the three understood.

Mikasa closed the door, making sure she locked it well. She walked along the streets, looking at people who had smiles on their faces, some of them were holding hands, laughing, and others were doing happy things like sitting by the street and telling stories. Mikasa wanted that, she wanted to hold someone's hand, she wanted someone to walk with her. But with what happened, she knew that she'll never get to hold his hand or to walk by his side like in the old times.

Mikasa kept walking, ignoring the sounds of laughing and the vibes of joy. She knew that she couldn't "feel" this type of joy since Eren Yeager was gone. She kept walking, walking towards to

the tree on that hill, his favorite place...
