"The New Neko"
Chapter Seven
By: _LenaAckerman_
First month
Erwin was holed up in his study, sheets upon sheets of godforsaken math tests from his year eight class in front of him and doing all he could to mark them. He had the top year eight class, which was OK, but they were still thirteen/fourteen year old, hormonal teenagers who like to draw penises in the corner of the page.
For fuck sake why couldn't he teach mature seniors?!
He was so stressed that he had begun buying wigs off amazon. He had freaked when he noticed that he was starting to lose his hair from the stress of exam season and Eren's pregnancy. He wished he didn't give into Hanji's puppy dog eyes not to get the nekos desexed. He probably would have gotten Levi desexed straight away, but the cat had scared the shit out of him when he bought it up. Apparently Levi didn't like the idea of chopping his dick off.
Erwin could still hear him and Eren going at it despite it being a week ago since Eren went into heat.
Eren, Erwin had learnt over the time he was here, was a little shit (how Levi had described him) and now that he was pregnant and hormonal he was even more of a little shit. He was a ... big shit. He was a gigantic shit. Erwin was beginning to sound like Levi.
"Errrrrrwin," the whiny voice of said pregnant neko calls, followed by scratching at the door. Why do cats feel like they always have to scratch things? Erwin wondered as he trudged to the door.
"What is it Eren?" Erwin asked, looking down at the neko. Eren didn't look pregnant but he knew that there were kittens growing inside him. The only question was how many.
"Can I stay in here with you?" Eren asked, giving Erwin the biggest puppy dog eyes he could muster. Erwin (and Levi surprisingly) couldn't say no to those eyes.
"Fine," Erwin sighed, pinching his nose.
Eren cheered as he ran into the room, slower than usual as he ran to Erwin's chair and struggled to get onto it. Erwin sighed and walked toward him, picking him up and sliding into his chair where he placed Eren on his lap. He got back to marking, Eren watching him with curiosity.
Hanji had gone to visit her friend Moblit and taken Levi with her. Moblit had one of those electronic vacuums that did the cleaning by itself and Levi loved it. He liked riding on it as it cleaned the house. He also liked chasing mops and brooms. Regular cat toys were no interest to Levi but anything to do with cleaning he liked.
Typical Levi.
"What are you doing?" Eren asked, looking up at Erwin with eyes that could melt even the most coldest of hearts. Erwin knew that because he already melted Levi's cold heart.
"I'm marking maths tests," Erwin answered.
Eren blinked and watched as Erwin ticked, crossed and wrote all over the paper. His brunet tail flicked, hitting Erwin in the face, but he ignored it. He was used to getting hit with the nekos' tails.
At some point Eren swiped at Erwin's pen, causing him to mess up what he had been writing. Erwin groaned, rubbing his temples. He went back to marking but Eren started chasing the pen, laughing as he swatted at it with his paws. Erwin tried so hard not to loose his temper at Eren — he really did — but it just got too much.
"For fuck sake Eren, can't you go to sleep?!" Erwin snapped, a vein throbbing in his temple.
Eren stared up at him with watery eyes, the blue in them becoming more pronounced. Erwin's eyes widened in slight horror but before he could do anything Eren started bawling, tears running down his face in river torrents.
"You hate me, don't you?!" Eren cried.
"N-n-no nononono, Eren, I don't hate you," Erwin tried to soothe but it only seemed to make it worse.
"Why do you hate me so much?!" Eren wailed.
"I don't hate you —" Erwin begun, only to stop himself when he heard a bang come from the door.
As if he were a robot that had trouble moving because of all the rust, Erwin slowly turned to the door, blue eyes widening when he saw the most frightening thing (after Hanji when she was in experiment mode). Levi was standing at the door, his hair creating a shadow over his eyes, which were gleaming in that creepy cat way. His claws were extended to their full size, his tail appearing to be twice its size.
Levi's yandere cat was out, and it was angry at Erwin for making his pregnant mate cry.
Erwin broke out in a cold sweat.
"L-L-Levi ... when did you get home?" Erwin stuttered, his voice barely heard over Eren's bawling.
"You're so dead Eyebrows," Levi hissed before jumping at said eyebrows.

Second month
"Eren baby, what are you doing?" Levi asked, watching his mate stare at his reflection in the mirror.
"Levi, can you answer me something honestly?" Eren asked, not looking at him.
Levi walked toward his mate and wrapped his arms around him, moving his hand down to start rubbing his belly. It was only beginning to form, barely there yet. Eren slightly turned in Levi's embrace and rested his head against his shoulder, nuzzling his scent gland. Levi kissed his ear.
"Of course," Levi answered honestly, smooching his cheek. Eren giggled but turned serious.
"Am I fat?" Eren asked.
Levi was taken aback by his question. He stared at his mate wide eyed, his mouth opening and closing like a fish. What the fuck? Why would Eren think he was fat? He was pregnant, not fat. That weight he was gaining was a good thing.
Unfortunately Eren took Levi's silence as negative hesitation and he started bawling. Levi's heart quenched at the sound of Eren's heart breaking sobs. Fucking Captain America had paid dearly for making his Eren cry last month by having scratches on every inch of skin on his body, and now Levi was the one responsible Eren crying ...
"I am fat, aren't I?!" Eren wailed, rubbing his eyes and dampening his paws. "I should be dubbed the fattest neko right now!"
"Oi, oi, you're only fat because there are lives growing inside of you," Levi tried to soothe him. Bad move. That only made Eren cry harder.
"So I am fat?!" Eren sobbed, snot and tears running down his face. Levi grimaced at the sight.
"No, nononono —"
"Levi you idiot!" Eren sobbed, pushing Levi out of the way and running out of the room. Levi groaned, smacking his head with his paws.
Good one Levi!

Third month
Levi shuffled into the kitchen, rubbing his eyes and yawning. It was the middle of the night and Levi had woken to find that Eren wasn't in bed. He only had to guess where he was, and going by the light coming from the opened fridge, Levi's answer was deemed correct.
"Baby, what are you doing?" Levi asked.
Eren was sitting in the fridge — literally — stuffing his face with ice cream and mushrooms. Levi grimaced in disgust. He knew his mate was pregnant and was having full blown cravings but couldn't he crave stuff that actually went well together? Levi would even tolerate pickles.
"I'm starvshing," Eren answered through a mouthful of ice cream. He took a mushroom and scooped it into the ice cream and held it out to Levi. "Want some? I never noticed how nice mushroom dipped in ice cream was."
Levi eyed the ice cream covered mushroom in disgust and shook his head. It was never nice to begin with brat, Levi thought. The kittens are making you believe that.
"Come back to bed Eren," Levi sighed, taking the mushroom from Eren. Eren's eyes watered and Levi froze in shock.
"Do you think I'm disgusting?" Eren asked through sobs.
Oh shit ...
"Nononono, the kittens are making you think this is nice," Levi tried to soothe. It only ended up making Eren's crying worse.
"You don't want the kittens?" Eren wailed.
"Nononono—"
"So you don't want the kittens?!" Eren wailed, not letting Levi finish his sentence and think he said 'no, I don't want the kittens'. "Levi you idiot!"
Eren jumped out of the fridge and ran away, leaving a mess of ice cream and mushrooms on the ground. Levi sighed in annoyance. He wanted to pull his fur out.
Why were pregnancies always so difficult?!
