It's a check up Madds, calm down, you've done enough of these yourself so you'll know what to expect...
But Ian's suppose to be here..
We'll he's not. He's not fucking around anymore remember? You drove him away. So just suck it up and deal.
He promised.
Yeah, well promises can be broken, besides he told you that before you called him a murderer remember? Your own fault.
"Miss Speare?"
I look up hearing my name being called,"That's me." I say getting up.
"Come on in, so are we waiting for the father or-?"
"No, the father...he's...I'm doing this alone. The whole thing, the birth, the raising the kid. It's all on me." I say getting up on the table.
"Are you sure? We can call the father if you wish."
"I'm doing this alone..." I say quietly, praying that I was wrong on that.
Okay, I have a doctor's appointment later this week, you gonna be there?
Yeah, I'll be there.

You promised you'd be there.
She doesn't want you here.
But you promised. Don't go back on your word if you can help it.
What if you can't help it?
Well, you're here. Just go find her.
I sigh slightly to myself, making my way down the corridor.
I catch sight of her in an office down the hall, "Maddie!"

I look up, a small smile breaking out across on my face.
I look up closing my eyes, Thank you. I mouth to no one in particular.

I take his hand, squeezing it lightly,"Thank you."

I squeeze her hand lightly back, "No problem."

"Okay, we're just going to ask you a few questions. So, do you know if having twins runs in your family?"
My mouth drops,"Wait...are you saying...there's two things inside me?"
"It's possible, especailly if it's in your family."

I resist the urge to bang my head on the table, as I answer him.
"Yes, there's four sets of twins in the family, on my side at least." I grumble.

"Got to be kidding me." I mutter, "Wouldn't know about my side. Maybe."

I sink lower into my chair."So, there's two in me?" I ask again.
"We'll just have to take a look, seeing as twins runs in your family the chance of you having twins is greater."
"Great, just great." I grumble.

"Two..." I mutter under my breath.

I groan, rubbing my temples,"So how do we know for sure?"
"Let's take a look, alright?"
I squrim slightly, as I watch the t.v. trying to see if it was two or not.
We didn't even want one..and now we might have two?!

I tilt my head slightly, trying to see for sure, trying hard not to think.

I bite my lip, praying it wasn't two.
"Alright, there's the heart, you've got yourself a very healthy baby, everything seems normal."
"So it's just one?"
|

Post by Ian Hunt on Aug 8, 2007 18:53:46 GMT
Well, at least it's okay, I think, trying not to think about whether there was two or not.

"I see only one heartbeat, so yes. It's just one."
I sigh thankfully, relaxing a bit.

"See, that's the head..it's feet. Heart beat nice and regular."
I nod, a small smile on my face.
"I've got other patients to check on, so I'll be back in a few."
I wait til he's gone."I don't see it." I admit.
