Each one of the Matthew's children had something that they were good at.

Tiffany loved to play guitar and sing. She loved rock music, and hated "posers". The first time that she saw jude's first album cover, she tried to die her hair red using koolaid.

Ashley loved to horse back ride. Infact, she loved anything to do with horses, and also loved to shop. Once her and Sadie camped out at the mall for the new glamour store opening.

Zeke loved to read. Although he was always over-shadowed by his siblings, he didn't seem to mind. He was also interested in mixing tapes, and sometimes Kwest and him would go on an old soundboard, and Kwest would show him how.

Tyler loved to act and sing, and he hated school. Not that his parents didn't make him try hard; his B-minus' were worth the effort. He was also a very egoistic child, and he though that he could do everything better than everyone. Tommy and him would always have a ball mocking people.

Sadie's thoughts were interrupted by her cellphone ringing.

"Hello?" Sadie answered her phone.

"I'm calling for Sadie Matthews," the man on the other end of the line began.

"This is she, who is this?"

"This is Doctor Fuller from Bakersfield Memorial Hospital (I dunno if that exists). I have your husband Kwest Matthews here, he seems to have hurt himself in a car accident,"

Sadie was speechless, Kwest had driven up to San Francisco for a conference, and was supposed to be driving back to Thousand Oaks that day. He was one of the most powerful engineers for a successful record label in LA.

"Do I need to be there?" Sadie asked, looking up at Ashley. Tiffany was at guitar lessons, and Zeke and Tyler we at their house with their sitter Mrs. Docker.

"It would be preferable to talking over the phone," Doctor Fuller said.

"Alright," Sadie replied, "I'll be there as soon as I can," she snapped her phone shut.

Looking at Ashley, Sadie saw that he daughter was leading Lodi, the horse that she rode back to his stall.

"Ash, hurry up and get Lodi back. Daddy got hurt, and I need to get you back home to Mrs. Docker," Sadie said calmly.

"Alright Mommy, is Daddy okay?" Ashley asked, as she began to take off his saddle and saddle blanket.

"I don't know," Sadie admitted, as Ashley took the bit off Lodi, and filled up his water bucket. "Come on honey, let's go,"

Sadie and Ashley drove to Music Mania where Tiffany took her guitar lessons, and got Tiffany into the car, as Sadie began driving back to their house in Thousand Oaks.

"Daddy got hurt!" Ashley cried, before Sadie even got a chance to explain the situation to Tiffany.

"Alright," Tiffany responded, not showing any emotion. Tiffany again was a lot like Jude in that way. Accepting things first, loosing it later.

Sadie walked into the house, her two girls not far behind her, and immediately began talking to Mrs. Docker. Mrs. Docker was actually the only person that she trusted, that could actually watch and control all four of her kids at once.

"Mrs. Docker, Kwest just got in an accident in Backersfield, and the doctors wanted me to get there before telling me anything. Is it too much for me to ask for you to watch the kids? I pay you extra..."

"Go take care of your husband honey, I'll watch the children. Don't worry about the money or anything," Mrs. Docker said re-assuringly.

"Thank you," Sadie let out a sigh of relief, and left the house.

"What's going on?" Zeke asked, not looking up from his book.

Tyler took out an earbud from one of his ear, and paused his ipod to listen. Ashley and Tiffany explained to Mrs. Docker and their brothers what they knew to be true about the situation. That was a rare site to see, all of the children not fighting about one thing or another.

Their sisters explained what they knew to them.

Sadie drove with the radio softly on, playing "White Lines", but it it didn't calm her down. She was thinking about her and Kwest's relationship. They had been fighting a lot lately; no, they had been fighting since the quadruplets were born, but she still loved Kwest unconditionally. She decided not to try and fight with Kwest if and when she saw him next. The accident was a wake- up call for her to realize what was really important to her in her life.

Sadie parked her car, and ran into the hospital.

"Excuse me," Sadie said walking up to the receptionist, "My husband Kwest Matthews was submitted here a while ago, do you happen to know where I can find him?"

The receptionist lifted the top paper up from a clipboard, and read off of it. "Room 307 hun. Second floor,"

"Thanks," Sadie replied quickly before hurrying off.

Sadie slowed down once she got close to Kwest's room, not really sure what to expect. Sadie knocked on the door, calling "Hello!" into the room before entering.

"Hi," Kwest said groggily.

"How do you feel?"

"Sore," Kwest moaned, trying to re- position himself into more comfortable position, just as a doctor walked in.

"Mrs. Matthews I presume. We talked on the phone, as I said before I am Doctor Fuller." the doctor started blandly.

"Yes," Sadie confirmed.

"Your husband here whacked himself up fairly well. He broke two of his ribs, and his wrist. Nothing that shouldn't be expected to heal,"

"Any precautions?" Sadie asked. She had grown fairly motherly after having four children. Not that Sadie didn't always have that "make sure everything's always okay" characteristic.

"Mr. Matthews will need some intensive care for the next few weeks, and if you have any small children I'll have to suggest that you have someone take care of them for the time. Grandmother, Grandfather, close friend maybe,"

After Doctor Fuller said that both Sadie and Kwest's eyes popped out of their sockets.

"We have four eight year olds," Kwest laughed a little, but stopped suddenly.

"It may hurt to laugh and do regular things like that for a while," Doctor Fuller replied, then exited the room.

"So... what are our options?" Kwest asked his wife.

"Well, my parents are definately out of the question, yours are too I presume. I called Jude today,"

"Yeah?" Kwest asked.

"Yeah. Her and Tommy offered to take them in for a few weeks, so that we could have some time to ourselves. It looks like we could take them up on the offer,"

"Sounds good," Kwest replied.

"But there's only one problem," Sadie responded suddenly

"That would be..." Kwest lead, trying to see where his wife was going with the thought.

"I'm not sure if I trust Tommy with my kids after last time,"

"They're my kids too Sades. I mean, what's the worst that could happen?"

"I don't even want to begin to think about that, thanks," Sadie mumbled, wondering what would happen in the days to follow.

A/ N: I'm not really sure if I liked this chapter very much. It seemed too "filler" to me, and I couldn't get a much as I wanted into it. Also, for those of you who don't know, Thousand Oaks is a city about 40 miles from Los Angeles and Bakersfield is about 120 miles from LA, California.
