Well, some people like the name Cole, others not. I like it, however, and if there are any more kids in this story, you will have to live with my names. :-) Surprises in this chapter. And the only reason I use the WAY over used thing, is because it will cause problems for the family.

Oh, and here I am going to put all the names for the Bolton kids. I have not given them all middle names.

Diego Jerod Bolton -- 5
Jesson Michael Bolton --2 1/2 (Would Be)
Kessie Ann Bolton -- 2
Hope Gabriella Bolton -- 9 mo. (Would Be)
Cole Nathanael Bolton -- Just Born

P.S. I have no beta, all mistakes are mine.

Gabriella laid her head back on her pillows. Cole had been taken up to the NICU only minutes ago, and they were waiting for news on him. Troy was sitting with Kessie on his lap, sleeping. Diego was happily bouncing up and down on the seat next to Troy. Suddenly, Troy spoke up.
"Doctor? Isn't three pounds a little...well, little for seven months?" Dr. Dalt turned around. She had come in minutes ago to clean up Gabriella.

"Usually we see four pounds or more in extremely healthy baby's, and Gabriella's should have been. We fed Cole directly through feeding tubes for two months, then Gabriella ate very healthy for the remainder of her pregnancy. I admit, Cole should be a little bigger. We usually see small baby's if they were not fed right, or..." She trailed off, walking over and turning the fetal monitor back on. It was used to measure the baby's vitals during labor. They had turned it off the second Cole was born. Dr. Dalt gasped. She ran over to the phone and dialed a number quickly.

"Whats wrong?" Gabriella asked. No answer.

"Dr. Benton, please, in the NICU." A second later she started talking again. "Yea, I need you down here...yes right now! She is going to have another baby!" Dr. Dalt hung up the phone and walked back to Gabriella, getting her ready for delivery again. Everyone was in panic. When Troy stood suddenly, he woke Kessie, who was wondering what was going on.

"Another baby?" Gabriella asked, just realizing the pain in her stomach for the last ten minutes were contractions. She had thought they were just pain from the birth of Cole.

"Yes. I just realized you are having twins. If you hadn't asked about the size of Cole, I wouldn't have thought to check for twins. Well, looks like you are going to have a forth member of the family." She smiled and patted Gabriella on the arm.

"Awnoer baby?" Kessie asked. "A gwirl?"

"We don't know, honey." Troy said, still in shock. Soon, Dr. Benton had arrived. He smiled and walked over to Gabriella.

"Hello, Gabi. Cole is doing great. Which has me worried, in a way. I think it best I tell you now, because I don't want it to be a surprise. Twins really need to be carried to full term, and I do not know why we did not see this baby before. If we had, we would have admitted you to the hospital, and induced a coma, so you would have no body activity, and chances are, you would have carried to at least eight months. Now, when we see early twins, either both are a little weak, or one is extremely weak. I think it is fair to tell you. This baby will probably be to weak to survive. We didn't know about it, so we couldn't feed it directly, and Cole got all of the nutrition."

"But there is a chance it will survive?" Gabriella asked, trying to hold back tears. She couldn't lose another baby, she just couldn't.

"Yes. Now, almost time to push." Soon, Gabriella was pushing. She barely felt the baby slip out. Dr Benton cut the cord himself and weighed and measured the baby before placing it in an isolated bed. "One pound, two ounces, five inches long. It's a boy." He then proceed to give the baby to another doctor to take up to the NICU, knowing he had to hurry if this baby was going to have any chance at life. Gabriella turned to Troy as the doctor watched the monitor for signs of another baby, although it was unlikely.

"Oh, my God. Gabriella, you need to get ready to push again."

"What the heck?" She asked. "Another?"

"Yes, push now!" Soon, their third baby was born. The doctor let Troy cut the cord and then took the baby away. Soon, it was inti bated, letting the machine do it's breathing. "Two pounds, four ounces, seven inches. It's another boy." The fetal machine hooked up to Gabriella showed no more signs of life. Triplets.

Ten minutes late, Gabriella was cleaned up and resting. Her and Troy were trying to think up names for the other two boys. Diego was screeching with happiness. Three more boys!
"How about Caleb Josiah?" Gabriella suggested.

"I like that. Caleb Josiah Bolton. For which boy?"

"The second one." Gabriella said. They thought for a few more minutes, Troy finally thinking of a name.

"Caden Dominic." Gabriella smiled. They had three kids. One very healthy, and two not so much.

"Great. We have Cole Nathanael, Caleb Josiah and Caden Dominic. You do realize that all of their names start with C?" Troy nodded. Kessie was sleeping again, not aware that she now had four brothers instead of only two. Diego was running in circles now.

"We can call them Cole, Cab and Cade!" He said, laughing happily. Gabriella and Troy laughed as well.

"He seems happy." Troy observed, only making Gabriella laugh harder.

"Yea, he does, doesn't he?"

Two hours later, Gabriella had been moved to a private room and they were talking with a neonataglist.
"So why couldn't you tell that I was pregnant with Caden and Caleb?" They had called the NICU to tell them the children's names, so they would stop calling the baby's baby Bolton 1, Baby Bolton 2 and Baby Bolton 3.

"They were extremely small, and we couldn't see them all because Cole was so much bigger than the other two. It was just chance that he was the one that got the feeding tube." The doctor explained. Her name was Dr. Sanders. Gabriella felt as though she knew every single one of the nurses and doctors in the hospital. She had been there so many times.

"What are their chances of living?" Troy asked. He was afraid of the answer, but he had to know. If he was going to lose another baby, he wanted to know.

"Cole has a fifty percent chance. I will put Caden at thirty percent, but I put Caleb at no more than ten." Gabriella started crying. Looking up, she forced a smile.

"Could I call my mom?" Troy would have called his parents, but they were on vacation and couldn't be reached.

"Sure. I will get you a portable phone so you don't have to get up." Dr. Sanders smiled and stood, coming back in two minutes later and handing Gabriella the phone. She dialed with shaking fingers. Her mom picked up on the third ring.

"Hello?"

"Hi, mom, it's me."

"Hi, Gabriella. How are you?" She didn't even know that Gabriella had gone into labor.

"Good. Mom, I'm in the hospital. I had the baby." She didn't want to dump it on her mom just yet that she had, in fact, had three.

"Really? Girl or boy?"

"Boy." Gabriella smiled at her mom's excitement.

"Is he healthy?"

"Sorta. Mom, I had more than one baby." Gabriella braced herself.

"Really? Twins? Your father was a twin, so it runs in the family.

"No, mom, I had triplets." There was a shocked silence on the other end as Ms. Montez tried to take it all in. Three?

"All boys?" She asked numbly.

"Yes. We named them Cole Nathanael, Caleb Josiah, and Caden Dominic."

"All healthy?" Her mom was full of questions. Gabriella prepared herself for giving her mom the bad news. She knew her mom would be sad, just as she was. Poor Caleb almost had no chance to live.

"Cole is very healthy, considering, Caden has a thirty percent chance of living, but Caleb has only a ten percent chance." Gabriella started crying again. If she lost another baby, she didn't know what she would do. She wouldn't be able to handle it, Kessie and Diego wouldn't be able to handle it. And Troy wouldn't be able to handle it. He had gone through the pain of losing a sister when he was seven, the pain of losing his second son, and the pain of losing his second daughter.

"I will be right over." Gabriella said a quick good-bye and hung up, turning to Troy.

"Would you go see if we can see the boy's yet?" Troy nodded, kissing Gabriella on the cheek as he walked out.

He came back ten minutes later. They could see the baby's, but Gabriella had to go in a wheelchair. Kessie and Diego had to stay with the nurses, too. Soon, they were outside the NICU, waiting to see their children. As soon as they walked in, they were shown to the corner that the three Bolton boy's occupied. Gabriella smiled upon seeing the baby's. Cole was a feisty one, moving around in his little bed like there was no tomorrow. Caden was happily moving around a little, enough, but only a little. Caleb was just laying there, not doing anything. They were all fully formed, but tiny.

"Their so small." Troy said. He reached out and touched Caleb's leg. He reacted by pulling his leg back and grabbed it with one of his hands. Troy laughed. They watched the boys for a while more. Just as they were about to leave, Troy noticed something.

"Doctor!" He yelled. "Caleb isn't breathing!"

Well, what I meant by WAY overused, it the twin and triplet thing. EVERYONE has twins or triplets. And I stress my reasons. I only used it because if it was only one baby, it would have been fine without a problem, and I like making my readers wait at the edge of their chairs. Oh, how do you like the others names?

PLEASE REVIEW and tell me what you think.
