On December 2nd, the quadruplets woke up on their 15th birthday. Gabriel was making sure this was a day they'd remember forever. He told Emma, Brandy, and Randy not to start their little fights today or they would be majorly grounded.

Oliver knew to behave himself on his siblings' birthday. He always knew how to make this day an important one. He helped Gabriel prepare, as he does every year.


Luke woke up thinking of his own birthday, Because of his siblings wanting to give Lucy a party, she ran away, leaving Luke behind.

Luke was infuriated at his siblings because they planned a party for Lucy instead of planning to take him to the winter resort for his 16th birthday like they promised.

"I'm going to have them executed!" he hissed. He wrapped his gifts for the quadruplets as he was now bitter toward the siblings.


Charity heard about this and called a family meeting at lunch time. She was mad at the siblings for doing this when they knew Lucy wouldn't even want it.

"I wanna cut ties with all of them for good…" Luke hissed.

"Let's hear their sides of this." Charity said, frowning at the siblings. "We're waiting, girls."

"We just wanted Lucy to feel happy." Leni says "She's always sad."

"Did you kids ever consider her feelings toward parties sometimes?" Charity asked.

"No…" they say, ashamed.

"You basically threw Luke's 16th birthday aside for a party that Lucy doesn't even want!" Charity shouted. "You kids really messed up this time."

"We're sending you all to meet up with Lola and Lana." Forest says.

They frown, knowing they screwed up.

"But…instead of sending you there…why don't we go to Aunt Colette's house for the day instead? She'll love hearing about what you did to Luke!" Charity says. "And she knows that when her nephew is mistreated in any way, the people who hurt him pay with hard farm work!"

The siblings gulp as Charity drags them to the car. Luke leaves for the party.


With Oliver, he helps his dad decorate.

Luke came. "Hey, Oliver." Luke says, then helps him.


At Colette's farm, the siblings were immediately put to work. They started complaining after 2 hours of work.

"Maybe we should cut ties with Luke every December. We end up hurting Luke for no reason. Maybe we're going to end up hurting Luke like Lucy. Why does Charity even keep us around? After all this stuff, I Don't get why she still puts up with us. What does she want from us, anyway?" Lisa asked, actually confused.

At this point, they've caused lots of pain and damage and Charity hasn't given them up to a new family. Some mothers would have gotten fed up, but Charity hadn't, which you readers have to ask yourselves, how has she not gotten fed up?

"Get to work!" Colette screamed at the siblings. "Those stables won't muck themselves out!"


Meanwhile, Lucy sat in a forest, cutting her arm. "I shouldn't have come home."

The Sharps find her and take her to their house. Sam fixes her up and Sutton makes her some cocoa.

"Please don't send me home. I don't want to go back there ever!" Lucy sobbed.

"Take some deep breaths and tell us what's going on." Sutton says.

"I can't stay in that house, looking at the dry pieces of my old skin or my dried up blood and when I came back, they planned a party for me on Luke's day, causing a mess over me! I just feel done with life. I really want to end it." Lucy sobbed.

"There, there…" Sutton says, holding Lucy. "You can stay here for a while."

Lucy blushed a bit. "Thank you." Lucy sniffed.

She couldn't help feeling attracted to her own nurse for some reason. Sam had heard about that from Luna.

Lucy sees the guest room and put her stuff on the table.

"That's it? Is that your only shirt?" Sam asked.

"Mom wanted to take me shopping, but we always just ended up getting Luke stuff instead, as he's more important." Lucy says. "I care for Luke more than myself sometimes and my siblings destroyed my old stuff, so I really don't have much left."

"This is why Mom wanted you to stay in the hospital. You have zero respect for yourself." Sam says and notices Lucy is red as a tomato.

"Is she?" Sam asked herself. "Lucy, are you thinking of my mom again? Quit it."

"No, it's something else." Lucy says looking embarrassed as she had wet herself.


With the siblings, they collapse, tired.

"What have you kids learned from this?" Charity asked them.

"Not to mess with Luke…" they say.

"To enjoy the time we have with him and each other while we have it…" Luan says.

"That's something Lucy would say and it's scary." Leni says, fearing death.

"You kids have a lot of making up to do." Charity says.

"So plan Luke's birthday?" Leni asked.

"As you were doing before you chose Lucy." Charity says.

"We can't plan Luke's birthday. That's awful. Lucy's the one who plans his birthday, not us!" Lynn says.

"Maybe if you didn't run her off like you did, then she would be around to help you." Charity says.

"Wait, what did I do?" Lynn asked.

"You kids were choosing to give her a party." Charity says. "On Luke's day."


With Lucy she was attempting to take a shower as it stung her again. "I need help…" she whimpers. Sam came in to help her bathe.

"Are you sure you're supposed to be out of the hospital?" Sam asked.

"Yes, Lola said so." Lucy says

"Lucy, my God…what were you thinking?! Did you seriously go home because a 10 year old said you should?" Sam asked

"Yes…" Lucy says as Sam slapped her in the face for stupidity.

Lucy fell down holding her face as she was bleeding. Sam gasped. There was blood dripping from just the slap. Lucy was fragile and Sam didn't realize it.

"Samantha, what's going on?" Amy asked, having come back from work.

"Nothing, Mom." Sam says and tries to clean the wound up, but this is starting to make it worse.

"Stop it! Stop it!" Lucy screamed.

"Quit squirming, I'm trying to help you.." Sam says. Amy eventually came up and had to help.

"Mom, I'm sorry, I just got mad at Lucy's stupid actions and lost it." Sam says.

"Lola was sent back to that school, and she'll be spending Christmas there, cleaning. Lana is coming home because she knows better now." Amy says. "Sam, did you touch her?"

"I didn't mean to…" Sam says, ashamed of her actions.

"You can't do that. She's fragile," Amy says.

"You know she's still crushing on you." Sam says.

"I'm aware, sweetie. But my heart belongs to your father." Amy says.


With Luna, she works on Luke's gifts.

"I screwed up. I really want Lucy to come home…" Luan says.

"No party for her, understand?" Charity says. They nod.

"Are you going to pick her up?" Luke asked. "I want her here…"

"Yes, on the grounds that your siblings respect her wishes." Charity says.

"We will." they say.


Later, Charity brings Lucy home, Sam in tow.

"No!" Lucy screamed, shaking.

"They learned their lesson, sweetie." Charity reassured her.

"This house just brings back bad memories…I can't…and I wasn't even supposed to be here. I snuck out." Lucy confessed.

"I know. Lola won't be coming for Christmas because of it. Lana will as she is reformed." Charity says.

"Wait, you won't attend my birthday?" Luke asked Lucy, starting to tear up.

"I will, I will…" Lucy says.

"Lucy, what did we just say?" Sam asked.

"He needs me." Lucy says.

"Your skin is fragile and you're still injured." Amy says. "I really suggest going to the hospital."

"Um, Lisa can take care of me. She's a genius." Lucy says.

"If you say so." Amy says and leaves

"Wait, Lisa's a doctor?' Leni asked.

"No, but I'll see what I can do" Lisa says , then looks at Lucy.

"Nope. I promised myself I wouldn't do anything to you guys." Lisa says.

"Do it for my birthday." Luke says.

"Fine, I'll try." Lisa says and took Lucy to her room.


"Lie here, Lucy." Lisa says and runs tests on her, seeing her skin open up.

"My God, what have I done?" Lisa says, remembering she was the one who lasered her skin off.

"Lisa, can you fix me? I'm not going to the hospital." Lucy says.

"Lucy, I can't help you. It's pretty clear you're trying to rush your recovery process for Luke. If you hadn't snuck out on Halloween or Thanksgiving, you would have healed, but you were so eager for Luke to see you, that you failed to take care of yourself," Lisa says.

"So, can I stay?" Lucy asked.

"No." Lisa says.

"I'll just sneak out on his birthday. " Lucy thought.

"I can read minds." Lisa says.

"Please let me be there for Luke…" Lucy sobbed.

"Why can't you take care of yourself?" Lisa asked.

"Because Luke is the only important person in my life that actually matters and I need to be there for all his things. That's my main priority!" Lucy shouted before coughing out blood.

"Lisa, you can help her, right?" Luke asked.

"Yeah, I'm not going to sugarcoat it. Lucy lied to Mrs. Sharp so she can be there for you, Luke." Lisa says as Luke gasped. He never knew Lucy would lie to Sam's mom.

"I'm sorry…" Lucy says, in pain. "Don't send me back, I need to be there for Luke…" Lucy sniffed.

"Lucy, you need to go back to the hospital. You'll die." Leni says.

"Then so be it. As long as I die having been there for Luke." Lucy says.

"Do it for me." Luke says. "If you do it for anyone."

"Okay." Lucy says.


Amy comes to pick her up.

"I can't believe you lied to me." Amy says. She placed Lucy in the car seat and began to drive.

"Don't move too much." Amy says.


"So, how was the party?' Luan asked Oliver, upset she missed it.

"It was fun, I guess." Oliver said. "There were four cars as their biggest gifts, four cakes…a stage show, and an ice cream pool that was the size of an Olympic-size pool."

"Did the quadruplets like Luke's gifts?" Luan asked. "He put a lot of thought into them and all…"

Oliver nods. "Loved them!" He says.

Luan smiled at that.
