Gear nodded sliding his hand around Eren's and squeezing gently. "Don't be sorry, it's not your fault. They'll probably just make things harder for me, When I go back to deliver they'll use it as an excuse to test what they want- that isn't your fault. Alright? I knew what would happen when I spoke up, This is on me, not you." Gear wanted to make that clear. He wanted Eren to understand he wasn't being blamed for what had happened. "I'm not sure exactly what they'll try and do to me, but It'll be fine, whatever it is." There were hints of fear in gear's voice as he spoke. He soon fell silent his head resting back against the fall as he felt another pain starting. Even though he was pretty good at hiding it, his grip on Eren's hand tightened squeezing perhaps, a bit to hard.
