Third chapter of the day.
Chapter Sixteen
His parents were already inside the hospital waiting for him, Klaus and Caroline said hello and then headed out. Esther had gotten herself and his father passes to see Elena and as they were heading towards the doors, Elijah told the security that the triplets were his and their mother had just given birth. The security let him pass, they got to Elena's room.
"Mama." Ailis said as soon as she saw her Mother.
Esther, Mikael and Elena put the triplets in the bed so they could see their new brother. Ailis extended her hand to touch the baby.
"Softly." Elena said.
Elijah helped his daughter, she giggled. Elijah looked at Elena and returned the wink.
"I want to hold my grandson." Esther said.
Mikael got hold of Adrian and Andre, while Elena handed Matias to Esther. Elijah noticed how Ailis didn't get her eyes off of the baby, he knew that she would always protect her little brother. Esther got close to Mikael, and he kissed his forehead.
"Me kiss." Ailis said.
Esther got close to her and she kissed her little brother.
"Ailis, can I have him?" Freya asked her.
"No." Ailis said without looking at her.
"We should let you rest." Esther said. "Come on, Mikael you too Freya. Help me with one of the triplets."
Freya wanted to protest, but one look from her mother stopped her. She got Andre.
"You're going with Nana." Elena said to Ailis.
Esther got Ailis, she didn't even complained.
"Sleep." Elijah said and kissed her.
An hour later, the Doctor entered to check her. Everything looked fine so far, and if things got better she would be able to be discharged the following day. They continued to have more visitors throughout the day. His phone started ringing, it was his little sister, Rebekah.
"Hi. Lijah." Rebekah said. "We want to meet the new member."
"Hello Becks." Elijah said and walked towards Elena who was holding their baby boy. "Here he is."
"He's so cute." Rebekah said.
"How's my little niece?" Elijah questioned.
"OH look." Rebekah said. "She's too busy talking to her father."
"How are you feeling?" Elena questioned her.
"A lot worse than when I was expecting her." Rebekah replied. "She just wants to be with her father only."
"I think you're having a boy." Elena said.
"Yeah that's what Mum said."
"I should let you rest." Rebekah said. "So do I. I'll get in contact with you later."
"Okay. Bye. Give her a kiss from us." Elena said.
"What about me?" Aleks asked.
"Yeah you too." Elena replied.
They ended the phone call.
"Now you should rest." Elijah said and gave her a peck in the lips. He rested a little too, he woke up before she did. Elijah checked their little boy and he was beginning to wake up, he picked him up. He reminded him of Henrik, Elijah changed his diaper.
"Darling, he's ready for you."
Elena opened her eyes.
"Okay." Elena said getting herself ready and then got the baby from Elijah's arms.
They went back to sleep, they were woken up by the knock on the door and the Doctor walked in.
"How are you feeling?"
"Fine."
"Have you been able to go to the restroom?"
"Yes." Elena replied.
"Okay. I'll sign the release papers."
"Thank you."
The Doctor left them alone. The fifteen minutes were up. She picked him up to burp, he burped and she switched him to the other side.
"What are you thinking?" Elena questioned.
"How much he looks like Henrik." Elijah responded.
"I've seen pictures and yes he does." Elena said as she removed him from her chest and looked at him.
Elijah began to put everything away, there was a knock on the door. It was the doctor with the release papers for Elena and their baby boy. The door suddenly opened.
"I'm here, brother." Freya said.
"I'll go and pay and then move the car to the front. I'll let you know."
Elijah headed to the billing department to pay and then he headed out to move his SUV to the front of the hospital to pick up his wife and son. He was getting desperate and wanted to call Freya when he noticed them, Elijah got down as fast as he could. He opened the door of the car and then turned around to get the baby from Elena's arms, he kissed his little forehead and then placed him in the car seat while Freya helped her into the back side of the SUV.
"I'll see you at the house." Elijah said.
"See you." Freya replied.
They headed towards his parents home, they were going to stay there for a few days while they got acclimated with their newborn and triplets.
"Are you alright?"
"Yes." Elena replied looking at her baby boy.
The drive to his parents house wasn't that long, they were all waiting for them.
"We've got the whole neighborhood here." Elijah said and turned off the car.
Elena laughed. "At least is a neighborhood mine would be a city."
He got down the car, opened her door and helped her out, while Mikael got their newborn baby.
"Careful with the bodyguard." Elijah said to his father.
"I know, Lijah." Mikael replied. "She's being anxious since you called. She's definitely my granddaughter."
"Mama." Ailis said.

She got her little girl, she placed her head in Elena's shoulder.
"Did you behave?"
"Yes."
They were getting inside the house, Mikael got the baby out of the car seat. Her two boys were carried by Freya and Esther, she sat down in the sofa.
"You need rest?" Esther questioned Elena.
"No, I'm okay."
Her little Matias kept changing arms, he began to cry.
"It's time to change his diaper." Elijah said.
"Come on buddy let's change your diaper." Kol said getting the bag from Elijah's arm.
They were all startled.
"Not yet." Davina said.
"Are you done with the wedding plans?" Elena questioned.
"Yes." Davina replied.
Kol came back with the child.
"He's all yours now." Kol said to Elena.
Elena got down Ailis and got Matias from Kol's arms, sat down and then Elijah handed her the bottle.
"You haven't had problems?" Caroline questioned.
"Not with Matias." Elena replied. "He doesn't care for the method just that you feed him."
"That's good." Caroline said. "Let's see how this one turns out."
After they had finished feeding the baby they walked towards the dining room for lunch.
"Mama." Ailis said as Elena sat down.
"You go in the high chair." Elena said.
"No." Ailis said.
She had no other option but to pick her up, Elijah passed to Elena, Ailis food.
"She'll go back to her old ways."
"I hope so." Elijah replied.
His family left after a while.
"You should go to sleep." Mikael said pointing to Elena and Elijah.
Elena nodded and walked straight to Elijah's room without even complaining. they were woken up.
"I'm sorry, I wouldn't wake you up, but Ailis hasn't stopped asking for her Daddy." Esther said.
Esther placed Ailis in between her parents.
"I've got my girl back."
"Yes." Esther whispered. "Go back to sleep."
After a while, they were woken up by their daughter. They got out of the room and headed towards the kitchen, she looked for food as she was hungry.
"How are you?" Esther questioned.
"I am fine, it's just that I need to get acquired with a new baby." Elena said. "Are you sure you still want to take care of now four kids?"
"Yes." Mikael said. "I'll have my little helper."
"Yes. She's way worse than me."
"More like her Father." Esther added. "He was like that when Rebekah was born."
"Poor little brother." Elena said.
"I know." Esther said.
"You want some?" Elena asked Elijah.
"Yes, please." Elijah said.
She put it in the microwave to heat it, and that was when Matias woke up.
"Don't worry about that." Esther said.
"She's going to get me spoiled." Elena said.
"Just eat." Mikael said as he prepared the bottle.
"Okay." Elena said.
They were eating and Esther walked towards them with a crying child.
"Mati crying." Ailis said.
"Nana is going to give him his bottle now."
Mikael handed Esther the bottle and Esther fed Matias. Since Mikael was sitting next to Esther, Ailis extended her hands to be picked up. Elena and Elijah looked at each other. Elijah asked her for her brothers and she pointed towards one of the playpens. Matias finished his bottle, Elena had finished as well and asked for her child.
"Hello handsome." Elena said, Matias simply smiled.
Esther's phone began to ring.
"It's your brother." Esther said and then answered placing it on speaker. "Hello, Aleks."
"Please keep us updated."
"I will."
They ended the phone call, they were all worried.
"I can arrange someone to pick you up at the airport, if you want to go."
"I'll wait for Aleks call and then we figure it out." Mikael said.
"Okay." Elena said.
The wait seemed long, until he called.
"Aleks." Esther said answering on speaker.
"The Doctor just checked her." Aleks said. "She's staying overnight to keep her watched."
"What about the baby?" Mikael questioned.
"Still in the oven." Aleks said. "We're having a baby boy."
"I knew it." Esther said.
"Yes, Momma. We're really happy."
"Where's my granddaughter?" Mikael questioned.
"She's with Uncle Ioan." Aleks replied. "I'll keep you in the loop."
"What else did the Doctor said?"
"She'll need to stay in bed for the rest of the pregnancy." Aleks said.
"We're on our way." Mikael said.
