Chapter 39

Christmas between Nat's 15 and 16th birthdays because tiiiimmmmmeeeeee skkkkkkkkiiiiippp

Eliza's POV because why not, she's two and a half. 

I hop onto Mommy and Daddies bed. "Wake up Mama! Wake up Dada!" I squeal. 

Christmas is the best. Santa comes and reindeer comes and he gives all of us presents! Santa is the best! 

"Mommy! Get up! It's Christmas!" I shout again. 

"I am awake Eliza! Go get sissy and we will see what Santa brought you!" Mommy says. 

I bounce off of the bed, and run to my room. 

"Ash get up!" I yell. 

Sissy is always tired in the morning. 

"Ellie! It's Santa day!" She says. 

I run into Bwake and his mommies room, to get them up for Christmas. 

"Bwakey get up!" I shout, and he darts up. I start giggling because Bwake is funny. 

"Hey little squirt!" He says, and I giggle because I like it when he calls me squirt. 

He picks me up and carries me downstairs. I hit his hand and accidentally freeze it a little. 

"Tris!" He shouts up the stairs. 

Mommy comes and melts it, giving me a mad look. 

I haven't been wearing my pretty gloves lately because mommy wants to help me, well she said "control my gift." Whatever that means. 

"It's Chwistmas time!" I yell, jumping up and down. 

Ash and Mommy and Daddy and Bwake's mommy all come down and sit by the Christmas tree. I look on the table, where we put cookies for Santa, and he ate them! 

"Mommy! Mommy! look!" I laugh. 

She comes over, looking at the cookies and milk, "Isn't that cool!" 

I nod, and run and jump into Bwake's lap. 

"Who's ready for gifts?" Mommy asks. 

Blake's POV

Eliza jumps back into my lap, and I wrap my arms around her. This kid is so hyper! However, that makes her even more adorable. 

"Okay, for gifts, I'll hand everybody one, and then everybody will open them one at a time." Tris explains. 

Eliza bounces up and down in my lap. Once we all receive a present, the twins open theirs first. 

"It's from Bwake, and Bwake's mommy! Tank you!" She laughs, and gives me a hug. 

I grin, "You're welcome." 

The two tear open their gifts, and reveal five matching sets of gloves, that I had specially made for the twins. 

"That's pretty!" They both say, in sync. 

That's weird. Eliza has me help her slip a pair of purple gloves over her hands, to match her pajamas. Then, she hands me my box, which was sitting in her lap. 

"Thank you Eliza!" I give her a sweet smile. 

"Open it! It from Ash and me!" She squeals. 

I tear off the wrapping paper, and there is a cardboard box encasing the gift. "I love boxes, thank you guys!" I joke. 

Eliza giggles, "Open the box silly!" 

I tap my chin, "Are you sure that's how we do it?" 

She laughs again, "Yes Bwake!" 

I open up the edges, and pull out two handmade, blue and black bracelets. They are just braided yarn, but for two-year-olds they look nice. 

"Thank you guys!" I coo. Eliza pushes me over in a hug, and Ash runs over to jump on me. 

"Alright, Alright. Tris, you're next." I point to her large present. If I had to guess, that's probably from Tobias. 

Tris rips off the wrapping, gasping at everything. It's a new drawer set for their bedroom, but each drawer has something different in it. One layer has lotions and perfumes, one has new candles, another has clothes and outfits, the next shoes, and the last is a bunch of chocolates and caramels. 

"Who got this?" Tris gushes. 

Tobias raises his hand, grinning.

"This is amazing honey!" She says, kissing him. 

By the end, everyone is loaded with new gifts. I myself received the bracelets, new clothes, lots of candy, a new cell phone case, and some new sneakers. Tris got the drawers, more clothes,some jewelry, and some 'adult beverages'. Tobias got a similar bracelet as I did, a few new pairs of shoes, some clothes, and I got him four Dauntless cakes. That should last him one night. 

The twins got similar gifts, Ellie getting her gloves, a purple bunny, a pink princess doll, tutu's, a mini makeup set, and a new blanket, and Ash got her glove set, a red bunny, a purple princess doll, tutu's, kid safe nail polish, and a sparkly blanket. I guess when you are twins people will give you a lot of similar stuff, especially at their age. 

My mom got some jewelry similar to Tris', white chocolate, some clothing, and a new phone case. Nobody wanted to leave her out, so Natalie still got some makeup, gift cards, and a new phone and case. 

When everyone has put their gifts away, except for the twins, who play with their new things, we go into the kitchen. Everyone makes something to contribute to the breakfast. I make some omelets that my dad taught me how to make, before he disappeared. Tris makes pancakes, Tobias makes bacon, Mom makes fruit salad, and the girls just run around in circles making snow cones and running into walls. 

I never use my powers much, since they've changed. When I met Natalie,it was fire and earth. Now, for some reason, they have morphed into entirely different elements. 

When everyone has finished cooking, we set everything out on the counter, buffet style. I grab a little bit of everything, and sit in the second recliner. Ashlen, of course, sits on me. She shares my food, not that I care much, so we finish quickly. 

I wait until everybody has finished eating, and take the dirty plates to the kitchen. Mom helps me wash them off, and gets everything put away. when we finish, I sit back down with Ash, and we watch an old Christmas movie. It's called, The Polar Express

Both of the twins get so into the movie, it's adorable. When the movie finishes, Tris gets up, "Okay who's ready for Rudo-" 

She's cut off by a hoard of people rushing into the door, most of which I don't recognize. Mom and I sit their awkwardly as they hug the Eaton's. 

"So, Blake, Jan, this is some of our family friends." 

We both give quick smiles and waves. 

"This is Christina, Will, their daughter Nadia, Marlene, Uriah, their kids are Mark, Rebekah and Sammy, Shauna, Zeke, their daughter Shaylee, and lastly Lynn, Lauren, and their adopted daughter Lilly." 

I greet each one of them, then sit back down with the girls. 

"So, did everyone here know one another, you know, before the war?" I question. 

"Yes, we were all actually in Dauntless before everything. Marlene, Uriah and Will all almost died, but you know, Erudite healing or whatever." Tris explains. 

"Can we watch Rudolph?" Eliza asks, jumping out of the seat. 

"Oh my gosh! Are you Ellie and Ash? I haven't seen you since you were itty bitty!" Christina, I think, squeals, then picks them both up. 

I don't think these people have seen the Eaton's in a while, they seem oblivious to the situation. After a few minutes of the girls playing with these new guests, the one I think is Shauna grins at me, "Who is this young man?" 

I smile, "I'm Blake, Natalie's boyfriend." 

She wiggles her eyebrows, making me chuckle. 

"Where is she anyways?" Shauna asks. 

So they really haven't heard from them in so long? 

"She's upstairs." Tobias mumbles. 

"Why hasn't she come down yet? Nat is always here when we visit." She asks. 

"Na-she was in an accident almost two years ago. She's been in a coma, since the last time we saw you." 

Everyone stops in their tracks. 

"W-What? You're kidding, right?" Uriah stutters. 

We all shake our heads. It's like a stampede, as all of these new people rush upstairs. 

"We've got to follow them." Tris insists, and we all run, trying to catch up. 

As we approach the room, everybody is surrounding her bed, terrified, or horrified expressions on their faces. 

"I-I'm so sorry Tris, Four." Christina whispers. 

"It's alright, really. It's Eric's fault." Tris says, then slaps a hand over her mouth. 

Zeke, Uriah and Will approach her. 

"What did he do?" Zeke hisses. 

I take a step over, standing beside Tris, for support. I'm almost as tall as most of them, so I don't feel powerless against their menacing tones. 

"He broke a water slide, which sent her flying towards, the ground, and another day, they tried to unplug her. But, it's okay now, they can't possibly hurt her anymore." 

They release some of the tension, backing off. 

"Don't worry guys, he is going to die. Because of me." Tobias adds in. 

I cross my arms, "And me." 

"Yeah, us too." The brothers nudge each other. 

"I would kill him if Christina didn't kill me first." Will laughs. 

It's insane, really. Knowing that Natalie has all of this support and protection, but one accident almost ended her life.
