Fem! Levi x Eren

We stand, entwined in each others arms, the ground littered with lifeless bodies of both humans and titans alike.

"I'm sorry. The one time you actually need me and I can't use my powers." My voice is muffled by her shoulder, her arms tighten around my waist as we hear the titans coming closer. The ground vibrating as their feet hit the ground. They aren't close, but it's only a matter of time.

"It's not your fault," Levi says soothingly, "I shouldn't have let my gear break." her petite gentle hands rubbing circles on my back.

"That's not your fault either Levi."

"Yes, but they're all dead Eren. Erwin, Jean, everybody." then, almost as a whisper she says, "Everybody, except for the three of us." I pull away from Levi my hands still around her waist.

"What do you mean." She ducks her head a little further down, her jet black hair covers her face while she stares down at her blood soaked boots. "Levi, answer me! What do you mean by three of us?" she slowly raises her head and gives me a soft smile.

"Surprise Eren," She lets out a small chuckle. "You're going to be a father." she finishes and breaks into soft sobs, the large tears spreading the barely blood down her face. I re-embrace her holding her as close as possible.

"Dammit! God dammit Levi! You shouldn't have come with us." I force my teeth through the already tender flesh of my hand. "God fucking dammit! Fuck!" I curse, my blood boiling as I see how useless I am. I couldn't protect anybody. Not my mother, or my sister, or even the woman carrying my child. I'm useless. I didn't deserve any of them. My mother deserved a better child, and Mikasa a better brother. And the petite woman carrying my petite child, deserved a better husband. I clutch her closer, my face buried deep in the crook of her neck.

"It's okay Eren. It's okay, at least we're all together. One big, happy family." and then...
