The Ereri Project!

Hearth (Creature)

A/N: XD That video!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Eren is stirring a pot of stew in the hearth in the kitchen when suddenly he's snuck up on.

Not in a bad way though. He smiles. "Levi, I'm trying to cook," he says.

Levi shrugs. "Well I never get to hug you like this, the kids are always running around in here."

"Where are they?"

Levi lets go on him to sit down. "They went out to forage with Petra's daughter." Eren stops stirring the pot and walks over to Levi to sit sideways on his lap.

"The kids are right," Levi says. "You really do like sitting on my lap a lot."

Eren wraps his arms around Levi's neck. "I just realized how comfy it is," he replies. "If it bothers you I can stop."

Levi wraps his arms around Eren's waist. "It's fine."

Levi looks down at Eren's belly. He moves one hand to rub the barely there bump that's going to be their next child eventually. Eren smiles at him. "Are going to be just as obsessed with touching me this time around just like last time aren't you?"

"I always like touching you," Levi says. "But to answer your question, yes."

"Hmm," Eren's smile is warm.

Levi moves his tail to wrap around Eren as well. Eren rolls his eyes. "You over-protective mess."

"I'm your mess."

"Good."

Levi kisses the side of Eren's neck once gently, moving to kiss his shoulder next. "Levi~" Eren whines. "I have to finish the stew."

"The stew will be fine, the shortness of our alone time is not."

Eren rolls his eyes. "We have children, you can't expect an abundance of "alone time"."

"I don't," Levi replies. "I actually think it makes the time we do get more exciting."

Eren smiles. "Kind of, yeah."

Levi hugs Eren around his waist tightly just before the kids run in. "Mommy!" Cody shouts, jumping up into Eren's arms.

Samantha waits on the floor. "Is it lunchtime yet?" she asks.

"As soon as Daddy lets me go we can eat," Eren replies.

Levi frowns and lets Eren go. Eren puts Cody down before walking to the hearth. "Who's hungry?"
