Chapter 5, the final chapter of my Eremika Christmas special.

(Christmas day, 7 years later)

Eren is still slumped in bed, while the other side is roughly blank. There are signs of rustling and bustling, but no feminine body asleep. Instead of feeling for his wife's presence, he hears laughter, and paper being ripped. Footsteps vibrate louder, and the creaking door opens up, "Eren sweetie, are you coming?"

"Gimme a moment Mika." Eren mumbles to his wife, eyes still closed.

Sadly, the "moment" doesn't last long, tiny footsteps come charging for him, "C'mon daddy, get up!"

Eren's daughter, Carly, tackles her daddy, begging him to wake up. Eren takes a brief moment to look at her. Black, radiant hair, just like her mothers, and the same shade of green eyes, as her fathers. She has her father's jawline, but his mother's eye shape.

Carly knocks half of Eren's wind out of his stomach, leaving just enough to make him laugh, "Alright, I'm up. Let's go see our presents." Eren then holds out his hand, "Mika, help daddy up?" He wants Mikasa to help pull him up. She gladly takes his hand to hauls up his lazy self. Eren stretches out his back, and legs, making an upward arch with his back. Carly tugs on Eren's shirt, "C'mon daddy! Come look what Santa brought you."

Eren looks at Mikasa with a smile on his face, but her own smile melts his heart, every time.

In the living room, at the corner of their staircase, resides a small Christmas tree. It lays atop on one of their TV trays, covered by a red tapestry. Around their tree lays countess stuffed dolls, animals, and a giant stuffed polar bear, in a Santa hat.

Eren takes a moment to see their tree, it's littered with Christmas joy, but mostly shredded wrapping paper. Eren hoists her daughter up and hugs her lightly, "Did Santa get you everything?"

"No" Typical, Eren thought, "It's much MUCH better than what I wanted." Eren's face clicks back on, from after hearing that. He gives her a hug, and kiss.

"That's another Christmas present from me." Eren smiles at Carly, and she's all confused from that. But that doesn't stop her from smiling from the ends of her face.

"I love you daddy!" Carly says, making Eren's heart soar, he wants to cry but he can't work the nerve.

"Love you too sweetie." Eren hugs Carly again, and set's her down so she can continue unraveling her presents.

Eren goes into the kitchen to make his coffee. From behind, arms wrap around him, giving him a startle "I love you too honey." Mikasa whispers, silencing herself with a kiss on his cheek. The kiss sends lightning through his spine, giving him a shake in the shoulders. He switches the coffee to brew and turns around to his beloved, with a pure and passionate kiss. Every time they kiss, it feels like the first time. The time when they first kissed in front of the mistletoe tree. They break their kiss slowly and when they open their eyes, Eren begins twirling her dark locks with his finger with a smile on his face. Mikasa takes hold of his hand that's messing with her hair, and places it on her rosy, warm cheek, "stop doing that." She begins to smile at him, making him smile bigger.

"I love it when you get bossy." Eren gives her another kiss.

"I thought you loved me all the time?" Mikasa teases in between gasps for breath, as they kiss.

"Mika? I love you like no one's business." Eren doesn't really know what he's saying, it's the heat of the moment.

That nickname, "Mika" It was given to her after Carly said it, around the time she was saying her first words. It melts herself every time she hears it.

The coffee timer's ding completely ruins the moment, Eren breathes out his moment of anger, and pulls out two of their stainless steel mugs. He hands Mikasa her filled mug, and leaves her to do what she wants to add to it.

Carly comes charging in with pieces of wrapping paper all over her PJ's, "Mommy, daddy, there are some presents for you too."

"So cute!" Eren thinks, "Okay, we'll be there." He says.

"Honey c'mon, let's dig in!" Mikasa pulls Eren in with her persistence.

"I'm coming!"

Mikasa goes to see what she's gotten from "Santa" while Eren takes a moment, "My oldest friend, who I completely forgot for over ten years, is now my wife. I'll never let her go, because I can't imagine my life without my two favorite girls. I had the holidays to help me remember Mikasa."

Eren walks in, as Mikasa tells Carly a small story, "They say that Christmas is a magical time of the year? Well mommy sees how they call it 'magical'." Mikasa then hands her daughter a small white bag, and inside? "And I'm sure you'll see how with this gift."

Eren sits down on the couch, while Carly rustles through the thin paper inside the gift bag.

Carly's gift couldn't be anymore unknown to her, "A scarf?" A green, hand knitted scarf "How will this… How do I wrap it around me?"

Mikasa can't help but smile to her confusion, "It's quite simple really…"

(THE END)

Since a lot of the Eremika family fluffs give Eren and Mikasa a daughter named Carla, I thought I'd do the same, but since Carla is still alive in my story, I altered the name a bit.

I hope this 5 part story was great. Now then, with this story done, it's time to go back to Yggdrassil. For those who don't know, I have another Attack on Titan fanfiction that crosses over with Assassins Creed. If you really enjoyed this series than you'll love this one, "The Assassins of Yggdrassil". So far, there's more action than fluff, but there are certainly ample amounts of fluff.

Happy Holidays everyone, and a happy new year!
