Eren can't seem to stop pacing. Levi gets more annoyed with every step he takes across their bedroom.

"Just come to bed, Eren," Levi mutters, face half buried in his pillow.

"I can't sleep," he replies, "Our baby is out there all on her own! What if she needs something? What if she gets in trouble? What if she calls and neither of us wake up to answer?"

"You are literally the lightest sleeper I've ever known," Levi says. "You'll definitely wake up if she calls."

Eren stops pacing and crosses his arms, frowning at Levi. "I expected you to be more upset about this."

"She'll be fine, Eren," he says, sitting. "She's on her way to London not a volcano."

"But she's all by herself."

"For now, but you know she's staying with friends when she gets there. You've met them, even."

Eren frowns and sits on the edge of the bed. "Her wanderlust isn't going to stop here either."

Levi pulls on Eren's shoulder so he lays down and Levi can pet his hair.

"She's our daughter, Eren. She can handle herself; with my wit and your stubbornness she's set already. Not to mention those self-defense lessons she got from Mikasa and her generally very charming personality."

Eren closes his eyes. "Why won't you just let me worry?"

Levi smiles and kisses his cheek. "Because you don't need to. She already called before she boarded the plane and she said she'd call again once she met up with her friends."

Eren sighs. "This is her first time this far from home. And for this long."

"Judging by the way she was talking, if definitely won't be the last time she does this either."

Eren groans and gets under the covers, cozying up to Levi. "It's time like this I wish I were a woman."

Levi snorts. "Why?"

"Because then we could have another baby."

"You want to go through the hell we both watch Petra go through every time she has a period just so you can have a baby?"

"I guess I would be a little old for that anyway."

"That's the only reason you don't really want to?"

Eren is quiet for a moment. "We could adopt."

Levi shrugs. "Only problem is we're both pretty busy people."

Eren sighs and frowns. "I don't think we could ever have a kid that was as good of a baby as Petra was though."

"No probably not," Levi replies. "Most babies don't sleep as well as she did as soon as she did."

"It would be nice though," Eren says, slipping an arm around Levi. "Having a baby around again."

Levi watches Eren in the dark and smiles. "We'll talk about it after Petra comes home. Make sure it's not just you missing her."

"You mean it?"

"You might even convince me to get you a puppy this year."

Eren sits straight up, grinning. "You know what kind of dog I want, right?"

Levi sighs. "Get back down here and go to sleep or you're letting me get a cat instead."

Eren pouts and lays back down. "You're so mean, Levi."

"And I'm fucking tired but you're keeping me up, now to go to sleep."

Levi holds Eren and closes his eyes. Eren kisses both of Levi's closed eyelids. "Night," he says.

When Eren closes his own eyes he feels Levi's lips press against his forehead. "Night, brat."
