Description ''Levi the girl has no where to go'' Erwin followed in pursuit of the short statured man ''I don't give a damn shitty eyebrows send her to an orphanage'' The blonde haired man was not going to give up easily ''You know we can't do that Levi the girl barely knows any English!'' The man turned his he still kept his stoic face ''Send her to shitty glasses'' Erwin shook his head ''She's too busy to deal with a young girl'' 
''So am I!'' the taller man sighed ''If you take her I will give you some time off'' 

Levi was apart of the crime unit him and his team along with the leadership of Erwin successfully took down a sex trafficking ring most of the females were older with the exception of the girl she knew near non English with the exceptions of a few words from what Hanji found the girl was Swedish. He walked into the room which the girl was currently being held for the time being ''Levi it's only until we can locate her parents till then enjoy your week off'' Erwin smiled at you which caused your eyebrow to twitch ''Tch whatever shitty eyebrows''

The girl was no older than five with (H/C) hair and (E/C) eyes she clutched on to a dirty dog plushie disgusting. He knelt down in front of her he looked at her for a few minutes trying to think of what to say the girl never once looked at him ''Hey'' he finally spoke and for the first time her (e/c) orbs met his the fear in her eyes was evident he was stumped at what to do he held out his hand for her to take she looked at his hand and then back at him before placing her tiny hand in his.

They walked the halls hand in hand making people look at him twice he even saw people rub their eyes before looking back at him he really couldn't blame them though this was out of character for him he was usually described as being heartless and ruthless or the ''Bad cop'' in the whole good cop bad cop routine. 

He watched as she sat on the couch still clutching on to the dirty plushie his eye twitched at the thought of having something dirty in his apartment it was driving him insane but it wasn't as if he could just take it from her. He finished cutting the sandwich into easy to handle pieces before handing her the plate she looked at it as if it was a foreign ''Smörgåstårta'' he looked at the girl bewildered the first word she had spoken as he didn't even know what she had said sighing he pulled out his phone to instal and translator he tried typing in the word she said lucky for him it came up in the did you mean... he clicked on it ''Sandwich cake?'' he quickly typed a message and clicked the speaker button ''Nej, bara en smörgås med skinka''[1] the automated voice spoke he watched as she made an 'O' face and took a bite.

Not long after he felt a small tug on his pants leg glancing down he saw the girl holding the plate he took it from her ''tack själv'' he nodded in response after he took it as thanks he open the translating app making quick work of the typing ''Vad heter du?''[2]
''(Y/n)'' Well at least he had some form of gaining your attention ''Mitt namn är Levi''[3] she gave him a small smile and nodded.

''Petra, you've probably heard the news and I need some help the girl has no clothes and I was wondering if you had any that she can borrow till her parents are found?'' he nodded ''thanks'' he put the phone down rubbing his temples before glancing over at her direction that damn plushie ''(Y/n) Låt mig tvätta att''[4] he pointed to the said object she looked down at it before handing it to him ''Tack'' this time he didn't need the app.

''I brought her a weeks worth of clothes and nightwear as well as socks and underwear also another pair of shoes'' he nodded taking the items from her ''Thanks'' the auburn haired woman smiled ''How is she doing anyway?'' 
''Obviously the language barrier is getting in the way but I downloaded some translator it seems to be working'' Petra nodded and watched as the girl peered her head over the couch Petra waved ''Det är Petra''[5] the automated voice stated the girl nodded before waving back ''Be careful with her Levi, from reading the records her life has been pretty traumatic'' 


Today was probably one of the most stressful days in his life he would love to get in the bath but he decided that (y/n) needed it more than him he wasn't going to let her climb into the clean sheets of the bed in the guest room without taking one first ''Kom med mig du behöver ett bad''[6] she followed him. He placed his hand on her forehead to avoid the water getting in her eyes as he washed away the shampoo. She held on to the towel around her as he made work on drying her hair he was careful not to be too rough, when done he handed her some nightwear ''Lägg dessa på Jag väntar utanför''[7]

The door opened not long after he left, he led the girl into the guest bedroom he pulled back the covers of the bed and signalled for he to get in, he tucked her in before handing back the now clean plushie she smiled at him before nuzzling her face into it ''Godnatt'' he switched of the lamp he turned to leave ''Levi'' he looked over at the girl it was the first time she called his name he looked at her questionably she pointed to the lamp ah, she's scared of the dark.

He left the room, he stayed with her until she fell asleep ''Fucking eyebrows'' he murmured to himself as he climbed into bed not bothering to shower he was too exhausted he listened to the rain that hit the windows a rumble of thunder was enough to disturb him from slumber he grumbled curses under his breath before burying his head under a pillow he was unaware of the small presence in his room until he felt tugging of his covers his steel eyes met (E/C) ones that glistened with tears he sat himself up and hook his hands under her arms setting her on the other side of the bed as he laid back down he felt her hand grasp onto one of his fingers he could feel her trembling, slowly and gently he stroked her hair until she fell back asleep not even bothering to remove his finger from her hand.

The next couple of days past by he found out what she liked and what she disliked for example she loved to draw and read he would sometimes catch her singing she hated the dark and thunderstorms he had even gone as far as teaching her some English that would help him understand her basic needs the girl wasn't all that hard to care for she was a good kid always cleaned up after herself would say please and thank you most of all he was enjoying the time off.

His phone rang and the contact 'Eyebrows' flashed on his screen he grumbled before answering;

''You do understand this is my week off?''
''Yes, I understand that Levi but I need you to come in and bring the girl this is important''
''It better be shitty eyebrows''

''What do you mean you can't find her parents?!'' Hanji held her hands up defensively ''There is no record of them on any system'' he grit his teeth before picking the girl up to sit on the table and pulling out his phone ''Vet du var dina föräldrar är?''[8] he held the phone to the girl to record her response ''Min mamma och pappa dog'' he looked at his phone waiting for the translation he looked at the screen before putting it into his pocket ''Her parents are dead, that's why you can't find them'' 

''What happens now?'' the group looked at one another ''There is only one thing we can do'' Erwin said as he took his phone from his pocket.

''Hello, I'm Maria from the adoption agency I was told you have a young girl here?'' Levi nodded before leading the woman to the girl ''She doesn't speak English she is Swedish'' The woman nodded the girl was sat reading he opened the door and she put the book away and smiled at him he felt guilt pool in his stomach as he turned to walk out the girl followed him holding on to his pants leg he knelt down in front of her he took her hand into his he shook his head and placed her hand into Marias before standing and walking away he could hear her cries ''Levi'' she called ''Levi!'' they became more frantic the further he walked away ''Lämna mig inte!'' she sobbed.

His apartment was unbearably quiet he couldn't hear the childish giggles or her singing he couldn't hear her practicing to say the words he taught her. Sighing he sat down on the couch he felt something behind him he reached around to pull out the plushie she had brought with her he grumbled before putting it down again. All that he could hear was the girls last words to him as he walked away he knew that the words would be along the lines of ''I hate you'' 

The guilty feeling that seeped around his body prevented him from sleep he woke up the next morning feeling and looking like death not even a shower could remove the feeling he had he sat on his couch his eye looked at the pile of drawings that you had done they were what every typical five year old would draw he skipped through them before coming to a standstill at one; it was a picture of a house with two poorly drawn people outside one taller than the other the word ''Levi'' written over one and ''(Y/n)'' over the other they were holding hands he held it in his hand causing it to crickle he was angry at himself he typed out the final words that she had spoken to him into the translator he anxiously waited his eyes locked on the screen as the words ''Don't leave me'' appeared he ran his hand through his hair before grabbing his car keys.

''I'm not going to be in work today''
''Levi, you need-''
''This is your fault to begin with shitty eyebrows!''

He didn't bother to stay on the line he threw his phone onto the back seat of the car before getting out and walking into the building. ''Sir did I hear you right?'' He nodded ''Yes you did the girl that was picked up from the police station yesterday I want to adopt her'' Even himself couldn't believe the words he was saying it was out of character for him to say shit like this but it had to be done, he couldn't help it he had grown attached to the brat. He signed all the necessary paperwork ''Congratulations on becoming a parent Mr Ackerman'' 


''Levi!'' he watched as the girl ran towards him she wrapped her small arms around his neck he picked her up ''Sorry, (Y/n)'' she pulled away from his shoulder and smiled at him. 

''Ledsen för att lämna dig den här gången jag lovar att jag inte kommer att göra det någonsin igen''[9]
''Lovar du?''[10]
''Jag lovar''[11]
