Tris has been doing this for hours.

F: Max, Eric. We have boxes and boxes of stuff in our spare room. Can you paint, and set the furniture up? and there's a bag in mine and Tris's. When can you get here?

M & E: Sure thing, man and We'll leave as soon as we're done. why, Whats up?"

F: Tris went into labor when we returned to her parents. She still had like a month left... I was gonna set up the nursery this weekend... But obviously Ava and Carter have other plans.

M & E: We'll set it up for you now, and get there as soon as we can.

F: Thanks guys.

"Who you texting?" I heard Tris's sexy sleep filled voice say. "Max and Eric." I said kissing her head. I was laying beside her, now. "How long was I asleep?" She asked, sitting up a bit. I immediately adjusted and propped some pillows behind her. "about 4 hours. You're getting close. They just checked and your now 7 or 8 cm." She nodded, looking to me.

"We didn't set up the nursery..." She groaned. "Don't worry, Your husband's already got it. I asked Max and Eric to help out. "You're the best! Thank you." She said.

An hour later, Tris was pushing but neither Ava or Carter were coming. "Four, We need to do a c-section. Do we have your permission?" The midwife asked, and I said "Can you do it here without any complications?" She nodded and said "We'll still have to go to Erudite Hospital after, but We can do it here." I nodded as Natalie ushered me out. I passed, outside the door. "Four." I heard Andrew's voice. I shook my head, and dialed the first person I could think of. "Eric... No... I'm not Okay... Are you guys on your way? Thanks... I really need you guys..." I hung up and passed again. "Son, She'll be alright. I promise." Andrew's voice tried to sooth, unsuccessfully. I heard a knock on the door, and he left to answer, which is when I promptly sunk to my knees. "Four." Eric and Max's voice said as their arms collapsed around me.

"What's going on?" Max asked. "She's having a c-section... to get them out... I'm scared... What if they..."

Eric said "Four. Snap out of it. There's nothing you can do to change the fact. Nothing is gonna happen. She's strong and so are the twins. Tris is gonna need you right now, and you need to be strong, for her, For Ava, and For Carter." I said "I don't know if I have any strength left man..."

"Four! Look at me. You have more strength in you then anyone else. I know it doesn't seem like it now, you feel like the odd's are against you, and your worlds crashing down on you. But that strength is there. I know it is, and I know that you can do this. Four..." Eric started, and placing a hand on my cheek, forcing me to look at him. "You survived every bad thing that happened. Your childhood. Dauntless initiation. Tris's initiation. You faced your father for the first time in a year. You even killed him. You have so much more strength, and you know you can always lean on me and Max. We're here for you, and for Tris, and for Ava and Carter."

That hit me hard, and I immediately started Crying. "Thanks... I needed to hear that... Be Reminded..." "Hey, that's what brothers are for." I smiled at that. 10 minutes later Natalie entered the room. "Four." I stood up immediately. "How is she? The Twins?" I didn't hear the crying, and I immediately assumed the worse. Natalie said "They're all fine. Perfectly Healthy. Tris is asking for you, and an Eric, and an Max?" I looked to Eric and Max, nodding. We all went in, and I immediately kissed Tris's head. "Hey." I whispered. The midwife was checking the twins, who were now crying, much to my relief.

"Turns out Ava was refusing to turn the right way. She was born first at 11:58 pm, then Carter entered the world at 12:00 am." Tris said, softly. Eric and Max came over and said "There's our champion." I smiled, as Tris said "They said we're gonna have to go to Erudite..." I said "Yes, we do babe. I'm sorry, but it's just to make sure there is nothing going on that could be life threatening to you, Ava or Carter."

Eric and Max said "We're not leaving your side..." I looked to Eric. "No. Chris need's you... Dauntless needs you. I brought our stuff, so I can keep working at the ER." Max said "He's right. You go back to Dauntless."

-At Erudite Hospital.-

Tris had been sleeping for an hour. "Mr. Eaton?" The NICU doctor said, He had Ava in his arms. "What's wrong? Where's Carter?" I said going over and taking her into my arms. "May I speak to you out in the halls?" We went to the halls, and he said "Carter, was weaker then his sister, His lungs were small... The size of what a premature baby would be, except he was full term..."

I knew where this was going, I held Ava closer, Her warmth, was comforting. "Is there nothing you can do?" I asked. The Doctor said "He's in a coma, and we gave him shots to try and get the lungs up to where they are supposed to be and on a ventilator. But if we don't see the growth, we need to in the next few weeks... He won't survive, or he'd be dependent on a ventilator for his whole life." I nodded, and said "Don't tell Tris... Let me tell her... Would we be able to see him?" The doc said "Absolutely. He's a fighter, so is his sister." I smiled, and said "Like their mother. I know He'll pull through." I went back to the room as the nurse brought the glass crib-type thing in for Ava. "Hey sweetie." I said, sitting beside her. "Meet Ava." I saw her reach for Ava, and I nestled our daughter into my wife's arms, as she nursed.

"I have to tell you something... And I don't know how your gonna react..." I started, and our eyes met. "No. Don't say it... He's alive isn't he?" Tris begged.

"He's Alive... For now... His lungs are the size of a premature baby's... Too small for where they need to be... They gave him a couple shots to like help them grow, and he's on a ventilator... But if they don't grow... Well..." I trialed off, and she said "Is it my fault? Did I do something to cause this? Why are his lungs so small?" She was starting to dry cry, as to not upset Ava.

"No, Tris. We did everything right. I promise. This is just a thing... A thing that may be difficult to cope with, but I know we will get through it. Together." I held her hand tight, before she said "After I finish nursing can we go see him?"


-A few weeks later. Tris's prov-

4 weeks... It's been the hardest month of my life. I was in the NICU, Holding my daughter in one arm, and my son's hand in my other. "Tris. How is he?" Four's voice said coming over. "Henry wants to talk to us together." Henry was the doctor who had been taking care of Carter. "Ahh Mr. and Mrs. Eaton. I have good news and Bad news." Four and I said "What's the bad news?"

Henry took a deep breath and said "His lungs are haven't progressed well enough... But there is a ray of hope." I looked to Four, We both had prepared for the worst. "Wait... What's the good news?" I asked, looking at Henry.

"You're son is a canadite for a very uncommon infant surgery. We had a still birth, the baby just wasn't able to survive. I told the parents of this case. The mother, was very open, and said that she didn't want another mom to suffer as she was, and asked what the problem was, and she and her husband, want to give your son, their son's lungs, they'd be able to save Carter's life." I looked to Four, Tears flowing in my eyes, It wasn't even a hesitation. "Do it. Please... Can we talk to the parents?" I stood, handing Ava to Four. The doc gave me their room number, and said "They hoped you guys would stop by."

Four and I kissed our son's head telling him how much we loved him, and that he'll be okay. Once he was whisked away to the OR, we went to the room.

E: How's Carter?

F: He's gonna be okay, Man... He's Gonna be okay... I will explain more when you come up.

E: Sounds good man.

We knocked on the door, and the mother said come in. We opened the door and said "Are you Mr. and Mrs. Jenson?" The man said "Yeah I'm Lenny, this is my wife Stella. You are?" "We're the Eaton's... The NICU doctor, Dr. Irwing, told you about the baby who needed a transplant?" Stella said "You're the parents of that poor child?" "I'm Tris, This is my Husband Four..." We still used Four, but added Eaton now. Stella and Lenny were Abnegation. I recognized him, Stella was a transfer from Candor.

Stella immediately got out of bed and came over hugging me. I hugged her back, it felt weird, I mean this stranger was hugging me. "I'm so Sorry." I whispered. Stella said "I'm the one who should be sorry. Neither of us deserve what we've had been dealt." We looked each other in the eyes. "Why would you give our son your son's lung? We hardly know each other..." We knew of each other, but not well enough to be considered friends.

"Cause your parents did the same for me... I just had a gut feeling, it was you... And I mean my son's never gonna use them... So why not give them to a baby who needs them." My eyes filled with tears. "You don't know how much this sacrifice you're making means to us. There is no way We can repay you for this. But I promise you, one day we will." I promised.

"I don't want another mother to lose a child. It's the worst feeling in the world. If my childs lungs can help another, then it proves his death was meant to be... For this reason." Stella said. "Thank you so much. Thank you. You know what? I want us to be friends." "I think that's such a wonderful Idea!" Four was talking to Lenny, by the time we eased back on the hospital bed. "She's a beautiful little girl. Were you pregnant with twins?" Stella asked.

I nodded and said "Yeah, Four let me take her. Give your arms a break." Four handed her to me, and Stella said "What's her name?" I smiled and said "Ava Claire Eaton, and her brothers Carter James Eaton. Can I ask, what you were gonna name your son?" Lenny said "Nathan Andrew. Nathan after my father, Andrew after your's." "That's a beautiful name." I commented, as there was a knock on the door. "It's open" Lenny called.

Henry came in, and said "You guys hit it off pretty well." I smiled a bit, and said "Carter?" "He pulled through like a champ. We're gonna keep him for another week, and then you can take him home. Lenny, Stella, would you like to see your son one more time?" I gave them an encouraging nod. "Yes... Tris. Where can we find you and Four?" "The NICU Bay three." Henry answered. Another round of hugs, before Four and I took Ava to the NICU to see our son.

E: Hey, Can we come up?
C: Us too?
A: We're coming up
F: Yes you all can come up. We have some exciting news.

I was staring at my baby boy. "He looks like you." I said. Four said "And Ava looks just like her mama." "Tris? Four?" I looked up, Ava was in her crib beside us. Neither Four or I left the Er in this whole month time. "Stella." I said, standing up. We exchanged a phone number, right before they left.

Right then Eric, Chirs, Caleb, Amelia, Mom, Dad, and Max all came in, excited. "What's going on?!" They said. "Okay, well..." We told the whole story, and at the end we all got tight hugs.


-One more week later. Tris's prov-

Today was the day. Carter was off the ventilator for a couple days now, and breathing on his own, He had made so much progress, and the doctors were ready to discharge him home. Home. It's been a while, since we were home. I was so excited, as we put Ava in her car seat then Carter in his. Stella and Lenny were so excited, that it worked and we sent them pictures of him before we returned to Dauntless.
