The Jaeger Family: AOT Modern AU

A Stereotypical Morning

Historia's POV

I'm awoken late at night by Katie crying, she hasn't done that too often since she was born. Sammy, however, used to wake up crying almost every night. As I'm about to get up, I feel Eren stir and stop me from getting up,

"I got it. Just rest," he says, and I can kinda see him smiling through the darkness of our room,

"Thanks," I smile back at him, laying back down.

Not five minutes after Eren leaves, I hear the tv down stairs come on. Confused by this, I check the time,

4:04am.

I get up from the bed and throw on one of Eren's hoodies that I claimed as mine.

Getting down the stairs, I see Olivia in front of the tv, munching on cookies with a glass of milk on the coffee table. I smile at the sight.

I remember when I did that after Eren first kissed me...

"Hey baby, what are you doing up so early?" I ask, taking a seat next to her,

"Katie woke me up, so I went down to watch tv," Olivia replies, not taking her eyes off the screen,

"You know, I used to get up early to watch tv too," I tell her. Now she looks up at me with big curious eyes,

"Really mommy? I didn't know you watch cartoons,"

I chuckle, picking her up and putting her on my lap,

"That's enough cookies for now, young lady. And yeah, I used to love cartoons. Even when I met your daddy,"

"So you used to be fun, mom?"

Ouch.

"What do you mean used to be, huh?" I tease, blowing raspberries into her neck which always gives her the giggles,

"Mooom, stop it! That tickles!" she cries in between laughs,

"Alright, alright, back to bed for you, sweetie," I tell her, causing her whine,

"Aww, just a few more minutes? Pleeeeaaseee?" she asks, flashing her adorable green eyes,

I think about it for a few seconds before giving in to her cuteness,

"Fine," I begin, being cut off by Olivia before I can continue,

"Yayy!"

"-five minutes. And then we're going back to bed,"

"Yes, mom,"

I wake up to the smell of food being cooked and hushed laughter. As I open my eyes, I remember that Olivia and I had fallen asleep on the couch, watching tv. I sit up and see Eren and Olivia cooking, and Sammy and Katie watching amusedly from their high chairs,

"Morning," I greet sleepily, rubbing my eyes and walking to the kitchen,

"Oh hey, coffee?" Eren asks,

"Yes please," I reply,

"Mommy, daddy and I are cooking pancakes and eggs!" Olivia announces excitedly,

"That's nice, baby. I'm glad daddy hasn't burnt the kitchen down," I tease, making Eren scoff as he pours me a cup of coffee.

I give each of my children a kiss before picking Katie up,

"How you doing, baby?" she just looks at me with wide curious eyes, making adorable baby noises,

"Ma!" Sammy shouts, raising his arms up, wanting to be picked up as well,

"Here ya go," Eren says, putting my coffee down on the kitchen counter in front of me,

"Thanks," I smile at him,

I pass Katie to Eren before picking up a whining Sammy. As soon as I pick him up, he hugs me tightly and buries his face in the crook of my neck,

"Aww, is something wrong, baby?" I ask Sammy,

"Hmph!" he cries, trying to bury his face deeper into my neck, making Eren chuckle,

"I think he's jealous of all the attention you've been giving Katie lately," he deduces.

I look at Sammy's face, brows furrowed and mouth turned down,

"Do you miss mommy?" I ask him, he nods his head furiously before hugging me again,

"It's okay baby, I'm still here," I say, chuckling.

He's way too adorable!

"You can't be selfish, Sammy. We all have to share mommy," Olivia says, trying to open the freezer,

"And what're you doing, young lady?" Eren asks her,

"Daddy, I want ice cream," she says,

"You'll have to ask mommy,"

"Mommy always says no to everything,"

"Hey, no I don't!" I interject as Eren chuckles,

"Then can I have ice cream, mommy?" Olivia asks innocently,

"No," I reply, making her groan,

"Daddy lets me have ice cream every morning when you're still asleep," she says under her breath, making Eren's eyes go wide,

"Shhh! I told you that was our little secret," he whisper yells at her,

"Oops!" Olivia giggles,

"Eren," I scold him,

"Hm?"

"Don't 'hm?' me. That's not good for her! And you always do this; she'll ask for something, I say no, and daddy to the rescue. All the time,"

"It's not like it's everyday, just when you sleep in," he defends himself.

Seriously??

"You spoil her,"

"I do not,"

Sammy lifts his head up and puts his hands over my eyes,

"Ma, no figh" he commands,

"We're not fighting baby, don't worry," I tell him before glaring at Eren,

"We'll talk about this later," I whisper, "and you, miss ice cream, get ready for school,"

"Do I have to? I feel sick," she lies, obviously,

"Yes,"

"I can write a note to your teacher," Eren and I say at the same time, causing me to glare at him once more as he presents me a sheepish smile.

I look back at Olivia,

"No you don't. Now go," I scold, feeling her forehead for a fever that isn't there.

Olivia groans and stomps upstairs to her room,

"Goddammit," she mutters making me and Eren's eyes go wide.

I give Eren a look that says 'seriously?' and he quickly checks his watch,

"Oh, would you look at that! I gotta get to work," he says, giving Katie a kiss and putting her back down. He does the same to Sammy, and tries to with me but I look away from him,

"Bye, Olivia!" he yells,

"Bye, daddy!" Olivia replies,

"Love you," Eren says to me, kissing my head before walking out of the house,

"I love you too," I say, although he's already left.
