Heart Scapes

Epilogue

"Come on!" Rivaille shouted at his friends as they run around the maze garden.

"I'm lost!" 

"Me too!"

"Help!"

"Dead end again?!"

Kenny burst out laughing seeing how the children struggled with his small maze. He took him a lot of time to plant and groom all the hedges in order to make a small maze in the garden. The hedges barely reached an adult's waist but with children, they can't see the maze's layout. One needs to struggle to stand in their tip toes to find the exit.

"Hey!" Kenny called out to Nanaba's kid, who was planning on going through the hedge. "No cheating!"

"It's not even that hard, you can do it!" Jean cheered at his son.

"Pfft!" Levi snorted at the poor kids in the garden.

"My, my, those little ones are having a hard time," Kuchel stood next to him.

"Yeah, but that's the only way to put them to bed early," Levi's nose twitched at the aroma from the kitchen. "I'm starving."

"Let me see how everyone is doing," Kuchel quickly went to thw kitchen.

Levi licked his lips as his stomach rumbles. Sighing, he patted the bulge in his stomach. Looking down at his stomach, Levi cooed,"You're making me ten times hungrier.

"Levi, what are you doing here?" Petra walk towards him. "We were worried why you took so long in the bathroom only to realize that you wander off and now here."

"Sorry, I got distracted with the kids," Levi gestured at the children.

"They're adorable but it's time for dinner! I'll get the kids and the two men, you should go in the dining room."

"Thank you Petra."

Levi went inside, he can't help but smile at the ballons in the Great Room. He was not one for parties but having a baby shower is not so bad. Eren and him is not focused on the child's gender but more on the baby's health.

Levi turned to the kitchen where he found Hange, Marco, and Rico. All were busy putting the dishes in the servering platesm

Levi felt his mouthwater at those tasty chicken nuggets.

"Hold up! Levi, I know how much you want to devour these chicken nuggets but you need to wait in the dining room," Hange moved the plate of chicken nuggets away from the raven's reach.

"Hmmm," Levi growled with a pout but he obey, while stomping his feet on the floor.

"Hey," Eren smiled at Levi's arrival but the smile didn't last when he noticed the angry pout on his Omega's lips. "What's wrong?"

Levi automatically cling to his Alpha as he felt tears in his eyes. "Hange, she..."

"What? What did Hange do to you?" Eren demanded. He knew that there is no way in earth that Hange will hurt his pregnant mate but it's hard to hold into that when Levi is crying.

"What happened?" Kuchel approached them with concern, right behind her was Armin. The Omega had blonde hair and was carrying a cake box. Kuchel took Armin in and was surprised come back and see his pregnant son crying.

"She's not letting me eat those chicken nuggets," Levi whined softly.

Eren sighed in relief, he gently hugged his mate. "It's alright. I'll tell everyone to not touch all the chicken nuggets because it all belongs to you."

While Kuchel shook her head and helped Armin with the cake.

"Excuse me," Marco arrived and the food started streaming in. 

With everything was set, they all took their seat. The children had their own little table on the side. After a short prayer from the adults and one from the children, they all eat their fill. The children were quiet as they dig into their food, probably hunger after all their activities. 

Levi recovered and wanted to slap himself for being too emotional. He even apologized to Hange.

"What? You don't need to apologize or to be embarrassed!" Hange laughed. "All of us went through it!"

"Except for Marco," Jean inserted. "He's an angel."

Marco on the other hand just chuckled. "Not really, during those times I only think about your hard-"

"Hush! The children!" Rico whispered-shout.

"Oh dear," Kuchel look over the children. Relieved when all were not paying them attention.

"Oppss," Marco covered his mouth innocently while Jean was red as a tomato.

"Hmmm, you know, what about an Omega's night?" Nanaba suggested. "There we can share all sorts of things."

"Oh, I like that," Petra nodded.

"If that's the case, I want an Alpha night or day too," Jean pointed.

"That's a good idea," Kenny beamed.

"Those are nice plans but first," Armin rose from his chair and raise his glass of orange juice. Since Levi had a fit about everyone drinking champagne while he drinks juice, everybody decided to drink juice for the sake of the pregnant Omega. "I would like to propose a toast to the new member of the Ackerman-Yeager Family!"

"Cheers!"

"Cheers!" the children played along, clingking their fancy cups on each others.

"This is nice," Levi whispered for Eren to hear.

"Yeah," Eren smiled as he place his hand on bulge on Levi's stomach. Levi rest his on top, knowing that they'll have a bright future ahead of them together with family and friends.
