Through Good and Bad

Eight 1/2 Months Later

     It was now eight and a half months later and my baby bump was very noticeable. People were always stopping me to congratulate me and I would just smile and thank them. Eric was constantly worrying over if I was ok. Before I could tie my own shoes, he would rush over saying he would get it. He was so caring and people were liking the way his mood reflected.

     Today was special though. The initiates were now Dauntless and I get to give the speech today. I was getting ready so I could look nice at the ceremony. The speech I wrote was more lighthearted than it should be, but I didn't care. I wanted to show them I care without all the boo hooing. Today was their day. I waited for Eric to finish getting ready and we headed to the pit hand in hand. When we got to the pit, we instantly went to where Max had told us to go. We stood up at the railing getting ready to speak and Max did the honors. "New Dauntless, we are proud you are here. Make us proud. Here is Rose to give a speech for you."

     "Now, I'm going to make this short and sweet as usual. New Dauntless, we are proud to have you with us. You make us proud. Enjoy-" I was cut off by a sharp pain in my stomach, "ah." I said and I grabbed my stomach. I looked at Eric and just nodded as he came up behind me and wrapped me in his strong arms. He was running to the clinic and I heard the door slam open and Eric shout, "Someone help her."

     Next thing I know I was being wheeled back to a room and being told everything was going to be okay. That my water had broke and the baby was on the way. After hours of what seemed like pain on top of pain, it all finally ended with a bunch of screaming maniacs. Eric came over to me and took my hand in his. He said to me, "Do you want to see our sons?" I nodded and got a confused look on my face. He must have saw the confused look because he said, "Yes, sons, because they are twins. One was hiding from us the whole time." I was kinda frightened but quickly regained my composure and nodded. He brought the boys and we named them Aiden and Ashton. 

~A few days later

     We were back at our apartment after days in the clinic and people coming by to see us. We finally got to sleep in  our rooms while also getting up to check on the boys. "I guess you were right." I stated. "They are boys." 

     "I knew I was going to be right. But, I love you all the same." He said with sincerity. 

     "I love you too Eric." With that we said goodnight and went on with the rest of our lives. 

So this is the last chapter of the book. I know it is short, but I have made the very difficult decision to let the readers think about what happened. But this book is indeed OVER. Thank you for reading and voting. Be sure to check out all of my other books. Writing this was super fun. I enjoyed every bit of it. Thank you so much. PEACE!!
