Tris POV

Ellie is four months today. Explains a lot. I looked on a wedsite that said babies start teething around four months. Great.

Ellie is screaming from her room at three in the morning. I drag myself in there, unhappily, and lift her up.

"Ellie, what's up?" I ask, even though I know the answer. She cries in my arms and Tobias walks in.

"Need help?" He asks. I nod.

"Get the teething rings from the freezer please," I say. He nods and runs out. I change her diaper while she cries. Hopefully that helped.

"Here," Tobias says, handing me a cool plastic ring. I hand it to Ellie as I lift her in my arms.

"Here babe," I say. She takes it in her hands and drops it. I pick it up and hand it to her again.

"Come on Ellie, please," I say. She grabs it and bites it. Her crying minimizes, but she's still crying softly. I take her back to my bedroom and lie down with her. I place her on her back in between Tobias and I. She plays with the teething ring and calms down.

"There we go," Tobias says. Tobias and I face eachother, creating a barrier for Ellie. She continues to bite on the ring as Tobias and I fall asleep.

Only to be awoken again at 7.

"Okay, Ellie's up for good," Tobias says, lifting her up. He makes his way to the living room. Ellie sleeps like an angel, unless she's teething.

"Come on mommy," Tobias says, standing in the doorway with Ellie.

"I'm coming," I say. I drag myself into the shower and shower quickly. Once I'm washed and changed, Tobias is playing with Ellie.

"Hey babe," I say. Ellie smiles at me as she plays with the hanging toys in her bouncer.

'I'm gonna shower now," Tobias says. He yawn as her makes his way to the bathroom. I grab a muffin and bite into it.

I sit on the couch near Ellie and turn the TV on. She's gotten bigger, but she's still small. Her hair is still a patch on her head and her eyes are as blue as Erudite.

She gurgles and giggles as she entertains herself. She'll start to crawl around 8 months. We're going to try to feed her actual baby food today.

Tobias comes out of the bathroom quickly and dresses. We put on sleep clothes so we don't get them too dirty.

"Here babe," I say, lifting her out of her bouncer. I set her on my hip as Tobias and I walk to the kitchen. I set her in her high chair and strap her in. She starts to panic and cry because she's never been in one. I'd be scared too.

"It's okay," I coo. I distract her with her ducky toy and she is mesmerized.

"Apple or strawberry?" Tobias asks.

"Apple," I say. He hands me a small glass container of baby food that looks like apple sauce. I grab a small purple plastic spoon and pop the food top off.

Tobias places a bib that says 'Daddy's Girl' on Ellie. It looks like a smock on her.

"Ready baby?" I say. I dip the spoon in the sauce and swirl it in the air, entertaining Ellie. I place the spoon in her mouth and she spits it at me, covering my face. Tobias bursts into laughter.

"Very funny," I say, wiping my face with a dish towel.

"Sorry babe," He says. I try again. This time, she glues her mouth shut and starts crying. The food goes all on her face.

"Ellie," I say.

"Let me try," Tobias says, taking the spoon from me. He trys to put the spoon in her mouth but she fights it. Once it's in her mouth, she spits it. This time I laugh.

"Yep, let's wait," He says. Now Ellie is crying loudly.

"Ellie," I say. I lift her up and bounce her in my arms. I brush the hair on her head and wipe her tears.

"Maybe in a few days." Tobias says. I nod. I bounce Ellie in my arms for a while until she stops crying. I then place her in her bouncer, removing the bib. I wipe her face with a towel and hand her her ducky. She's immediately happy.

"She'll come through," Tobias says, pulling me to his side. I lean my head on his shoulder as I look at Ellie.

"She's getting so big," I say. Tobias nods.

"We can always have more,"

"Not yet," I chuckle.

"Aww, but our babies are so cute!" Tobias pouts.

"In a few years," I say. I change into more sensible clothes and grab my phone.

"I'm gonna take a walk with Ellie," I say. I lift her out of her bouncer and into her stroller.

"Alright,"

"Be back in ten," I say. I only plan on walking the halls a little, just to get a little exercise. I walk the hallway of my floor and round the corner.

As I round the corner, I get punched in the stomach, throwing me off balance. I get kicked a few times, then fight back. I right hook into the guys head, knocking him off balance. Another guy has Ellie in his arms.

"No!" I scream. I chase after him as Ellie cries. One guy catches up to me and places a cloth over my mouth. After a few seconds, all I see is darkness.
