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

Carla watches Eren and Levi playing in the pool in the backyard, switching her phone to her other ear.

"Have you guys gone to talk to his doctor yet?"

Celia sighs on the other end. "We went yesterday," she says. "We found out that since he's completely deaf, hearing aids won't work for him."

"I'm sorry," Carla replies.

"His only option if he wants to hear is surgery and both of us are kind of scared of that. I'm scared because I don't like the idea of some surgeon drilling holes in my baby's head but I'm not really sure what's got him scared about it."

Carla shrugs, watching at Eren lifts Levi and throws him back in the water. "Surgery would be more permanent than hearing aids," she says.

"He might be afraid that hearing will be too much and he'll start hating it."

"Maybe," Celia sighs again. "I just... I want him to be happy."

Carla snorts. "He looks pretty happy to me."

"Are they swimming? I saw Levi grab his bathing suit when Eren came to get him."

"Not quite swimming so much as splashing around but yes, they're in the pool."

"I thought you didn't have one."

"Eren went to buy one of those four foot plastic ring ones last week."

"Sounds really nice with all the heatwave this week."

"You can come over if you'd like," Carla says. "So you don't have to turn on your air conditioning."

"After work maybe," Celia replies. "I have to leave in about forty-five minutes."

Carla smiles and finally looks away from the pair outside when Levi kisses Eren. "He still doesn't want to tell Eren?"

"He told me he's going to do it soon."

~~~

Levi and Eren sit on their towels in the sunniest part of the yard to dry off a bit. Eren is enjoying soaking in the sun as Levi leans over to tap his shoulder. What? Eren asks.

Levi looks a little nervous. I'm thinking about getting surgery for my ears.

Eren stares at him.

So I can hear, Levi adds quickly.

Eren's eyes widen. For real?

Can your mom afford that?

Mikasa probably told you our grandfather died. He left the two of us all his money so I might be able to pay for it with that.

Eren thinks for a long moment. Are you sure you want that?

Levi shrugs. I'm not sure yet. It's only recently that it's even been an option so I do want to think more about it but I think I want to do it.

I'm on board for whatever you want.

Levi smiles and leans over to kiss Eren. "Aw!" a voice coos.

When Levi breaks the kiss, Eren leans over to glare at his mother, who giggles as she closes the door again.
