A/N:
"How's Tris?" Christina asks Tobias walking into the waiting room.
"She's doing okay," he sighs and looks at Cale and Grey are playing with each other. "The nurse said that she needs to rest because her body was giving out on her. I thought that it would be better to just let her rest than to let the kid wake her up."
"Oh, okay," Christina smiles and sits down in the other chair next to Christian, who is sitting next to Natalie. "Carter asleep?"
Tobias nods, although he still doesn't look up from the ground.
"Hey," Christina pushes his shoulder, "Tris is a fighter. She's not going to just leave you all alone with four kids; one of them being a newborn."
"I know, but they told me that if she pushes herself too much, her whole body will just kind of shut down," Tobias tells her and looks into Carter's carrier to see that he has woken up and is looking around with bug eyes. "Hey, buddy."
"Is Connor awake?" Natalie asks looking at the small baby. Tobias nods in confirmation and picks up the newborn baby. "Can I hold him?"
"Yeah, do you remember how?" he asks her, receiving a nod of confirmation from Natalie. He hands Natalie the small baby boy. The waiting room is silent for a while until footsteps come walking towards them.
"Tris Eaton's husband, Four?" a nurse with neon pink hair asks walking over to them. Tobias stands and looks at her. "Tris is asking for you."
"Okay," he turns to Christina. "Will you watch them?"
Christina nods and Will burst through the door with baby Carson in his arms. Tobias follows the nurse down the hall towards Tris' room. 213… 215… finally room 217, Tris' designated room.
"Please just don't be all 'physical', like hugging and bone crushing, we don't know when the next time that her liver or any other vital organ will bust. When it does, there is a fifty-fifty chance of them busting, there is not a good chance of her living." Heidi, according to her name tag, stresses to him. "Please, just be very quiet and gentle."
"Yeah, I will just I want to see my wife before I turn forty," he says and she opens the door to reveal a very weak and also exhausted Tris. "Hey, Trissy."
Tris' head looks over at her husband and gives him a small, weak smile. "Hey, baby," she gestures with her head to move closer to her. "Where are the kids?"
"Christina has them in the waiting room," he informs her. "I didn't want them to be energetic and hurt you."
"Okay, I do want to see them though. Especially the baby and Natie Belle and the twins," she rants.
"So all of them?" he asks her, letting out a small laugh and sitting next to her, moving a little bit of loose bangs out of her eyes. Tris thinks about this for a while and then nods.
"Yes, yes all of the kids that I carried for 36 months," she confirms.
"27 months actually," he says.
"I count the twins as 18 months." Tobias is confused. "I'm sorry, did you have 20, 000 pounds of human being-"
"- 10 pounds each…"
"…sitting on your bladder for 18 months-"
"-9 months, four weeks and a couple of days…"
"…and have to eat something that no regular human being could eat?"
"No, sunshine of my existence," he says in monotone. "Would you like me to get them?"
"Nah, I don't think that I could take," she says and leans against her husband's arm and closing her tired eyes.
"Are you hungry or something?" he asks, tugging at her IV's in her hand. "You want something to drink?"
"No, the nurses told me I should wait because they want me to rest then eat, something medical that only the Euridite get," she informs him and lays her head against his shoulder.
"Well, then go to sleep. When you wake up and have something to eat and drink we'll get the kids in here," He says, pushing hair out of her face and resting his own head on her.
…
"Christina, will you stay here with Tris, I think I need to take them home?" Tobias points out to Tris' best friend. "If you want Christian can stay with us and I'll get him on the bus in the morning."
"Will you? I haven't seen Tris in forever."
"I thought that you went to lunch last week," Christina nods.
"Your point?" she asks.
Four nods and puts Carter into his carrier. "C'mon Christian, you're coming with us."
"But, what about my stuff?" he asks.
"We'll stop and get it."
Christian shrugs and follows him, the twins and Natalie. "Okay."

A/N: Hey guys, so sorry that it took a while to update, but over the past few weeks I have been at the school until about nine at night and I also was exhausted, so I never really had time to right over the past couple of weeks. I have gotten a lot of awesome reviews and I hope that those don't end, because this story is coming to a small close. But, don't worry I have another story on deck, which happens to be a sequel to this. Thank you very much, renae (guest). Happy! Happy! Happy! Xoxo!
