"Sit still," Mikasa hissed.

Eren glanced quickly to where his wife was sitting, right next to him, and forced himself to calm down. But to both their dismays, he began shaking and fidgeting seconds later. Mikasa sighed and placed her hand on the small of his back.

"Why am I the one comforting you right now?" she asked.

Eren scowled at her and looked away, "Sorry if I'm not as coolheaded as you..."

Mikasa smirked at that and said nothing more, and they both sat quietly, waiting for their names to be called. Though she kept her front cool, her heart was beating erratically and she felt cold sweat break out all over her body.

Soon enough a voiced called, "Mr. and Mrs. Yeager?", and they both stood up.

The Day Before

It had been a simple family dinner, composed of Emika playing with her food, Eren talking far too loud and Mikasa telling them both to mind their manners. Sure enough, the two of them ignored her, and went on with their commotion.

Mikasa sighed and rubbed mashed peas off her daughters face while she told Eren, once again, to not speak with his mouth full.

"Geesh," he grumbled, in between bites, "Wha dosh it mattuh?"

"You're too old to still talk with your mouth full Eren," she countered.

Eren rolled his eyes at her as Emika spooned herself an oversized amount of.

"I wannuh be lie Daddy!" she cried, laughing and spilling food from her mouth.

"Hell yuh yoo do!" Eren cheered with his mouth still full as he high-fived the toddler over the table.

Mikasa kicked him right away, and soon he began choking. She ignored him for about three seconds, before her natural instincts kicked in and she began slapping him on the back.

Soon enough, Eren's throat was clear and he was rubbing his neck and grimacing.

"What was that for?!" he growled.

"I told you not to curse in front of her," Mikasa said coolly.

"It was an accident!"

"It's always 'an accident' with you."

"Give me a break..."

"Never."

At that, the two turned towards the sound of their daughter's laughter and raised their eyebrows at her.

"What's so funny?" Eren asked.

"I think it's funny when Mommy yells at Daddy," Emika said.

"Mommy doesn't find it funny," Mikasa said darkly.

Eren glared at her, "Neither does Daddy."

The two stared each other down before they heard their daughter beginning to giggle again. Calling a silent truce, they both turned back to their plates. The peace lasted for a few minutes before Mikasa cleared her throat. Two interested faces turned towards her and she took a deep breath.

"I haven't been feeling too well these last few weeks, so I went to the store to buy a test and...and I think we're going to have another baby," she said calmly.
