A/N: Okay, so here's the deal. I plan on posting chapters more frequently. Yay! Well, I hope every few days? Maybe? If you guys can get more people to read this story then, the faster I can publish new chapters on here. Thank you for being so patient with me. I have a one week break before basketball season starts so, bear with me.
I also want to do more Steven Universe stories but really, just please message any couples you guys want from an anime or show. I can do requests! Phíla!

"Carla." Mikasa was staring at her beloved daughter with a smile.
Eren never felt this happy in such a long time and he loved the genuine look on his wife's face.
"Have you checked on Armin and Annie?" She asked while looking up.
"Mikasa. I'm sure they're fine. Both of them are still frequently visiting the doctor on updates since last night." He replied. "Don't worry."
She brushed her littles ones hair back. "I know. But, I'm still shocked about this. Annie went through so much this past year and I don't want it to happen again."
Eren kissed her forehead. "I'm sure we will all be fine." His behavior was only tamed because he didn't want to put more stress on Mikasa as it is. She should be resting, not fretting.
"Hey guys!" Sasha whispered excitedly with her head poked through the door. "Is she awake?"
Mikasa sat up a bit more. "Yes."
The brown haired girl led the rest of the group inside the room. Everyone was there, minus two.
Sasha was the first to take the empty seat next to her. "Woah.. What's the tiny persons name?!"
"Carla."
"She's beautiful." Christa chipped in. "Looks so much like her mother.." Small tears tried forming in her eyes.
Ymir placed her hand on the small blondes shoulder. "Don't cry Christa."
She sniffled then wiped them away. "Okay."
Reiner spoke up next. "Has Annie dropped by yet?"
"Yeah. But, we said it would be best of they were near by instead. Due to the circumstances.." Eren explained. "We don't want them constantly going in and out of the room to do checkups."
"Can't believe this happened so early. Let's hope both of them can make it through." Reiner said as he leaned against the wall.
"I'm sure the doctors are watching over the two right now. It's way too early and none of us expected it either." Marco chipped in.
.
Armin sat next to Annie with his head down. It was now 8:00 a.m. 7 hours and 59 minutes after the delivery.
He looked over at his beautiful wife as silent tears came down her eyes. "Annie.." Armin wiped them away slowly. "It's okay."
"I'm tired. Tired of people telling me it's okay.." Annie sniffled. She was slowly tearing apart over the early birth.
The blonde leaned over to place his hand on her arm. "Hey, it's not anybody's fault. I promise you, everything's is going to turn out."
"No! It's my fault Armin!" She shouted but, her gaze never left her hands. "I-I didn't even get to hold t-" More of the tears came down. "I deserve this punishment. With all the bad things I've done.."
Armin quickly sat next to her and wrapped his arms around the fragile form. "No!" He whispered. "We're in this together and you shouldn't be feeling like that. We all love you no matter what. I've seen the signs.. We will make it through."
"I just want to see my babies." Annie whispered into his shirt.
Yes, Annie couldn't believe herself. She was barely able to carry one child yet, what surprise. 3 minutes after the baby girl, was a baby boy. Both had blonde hair and bright blue eyes. But, due to their extreme early birth, both we're taken away. Neither parents even got to get a good look at them as nurses put them in machines and took off.
At only 7 months old, they could die. Armin and Annie sat a awake all night waiting. Worrying if they were even going to be alive.
A knock was at the door and both of them hurriedly pushed away the conversation. It was their doctor.
"Good Morning." He said and stood at the foot of the bed. "There is good news and bad."
"Get on with it." Armin tightened his grip around Annie as they waited for his response.
"The bad news is we will need to keep them for a few weeks. But, on the bright side, they show signs of a normal newborn and have been adjusting very quickly to the new world. Both are healthy and available to be seen."
Finally. After 7 hours. They can see both of their babies.
