(Not) forgetting tris prior.

Bea.

I hold my beautiful baby girl as I sit on the chair in her hospital room.

She's so small and fragile. I'm so afraid that I'm going to break her...

I touch her soft little cheek because she's crying "hey bea.... Hey baby... Don't cry... Shh..." I wipe away her tiny tears. This is killing me. I hate seeing her sad.

The nurse comes in "mr eaton.... Would you like to try to feed her?..."

I nod nervously and take the bottle. I put it up to bea's mouth and she sucks it and makes loud slurping noises.

I chuckle softly and watch her. "Tris.... I hope you're watching this...." I say quietly.

/-/-/-/-/ time skip: one week later. \-\-\-\-\

I pick up bea and rock her back and forth. She's grown quite a lot in the last week so she's allowed to leave. Finally.

My mom and Christina went out and bought her tons of clothes and things, so we are well prepared.

I dress bea in her little dress gently and I smile and kiss her head. I hear the door open and who should come in, but the devil himself. Marcus.

I hold bea close to my chest and stand up. "Leave. Now." I say coldly

"How dare you talk to your father that way Tobias...." He glares at me and looks at bea. I instinctively hold her closer to my chest and she reaches up and pokes my nose.

Marcus laughs slightly and my eyes widen.

Bea giggles the most adorable little giggle and I can't help but crack a small smile.

I sit down with bea and I get her little pink blanket and I wrap it around her and get her bottle to feed her. I put the bottle to her mouth and she starts sucking and slurping.

I smile and rub her tummy softly while she eats.

Marcus watches me with wide eyes, but I don't even care.

She finishes her bottle and I take it out of her mouth but she grabs my finger and shoves it in her mouth. I chuckle "bea.... That might not be the cleanest chew toy...."

Evelyn comes in and chuckles "god bea... We don't want you to get sick already... Your dad does not wash his hands...."

"Do too!" I whine.

Marcus scoffs "don't act like a child Tobias...."

I glare at him "don't tell me what to do...."

He glares at me and clenches his fists "how did she ever love you?!"

My heart sinks and I let out a sob. I know I shouldn't act this weak in front of him, but I can't help it. I hold bea close and I keep sobbing.

I hate him. I hate him. I hate him.

He seems taken aback by the effect that his words had.

Evelyn glares at him and shoves past and walks over and holds me close while I sob into her shirt.

Marcus just watches, stunned. "Why are you crying?....."

I glare at him through tears "just shut up and get out. Don't plan on seeing my daughter or me, ever again."

He looks stunned "you-" I cut him off "get out!" I yell.

That was the last I saw of him for a long time.
