It's been nearly a week of being locked in this stupid room. I've been missing my friends, and Piper especially. I should have spent more time with her. I can't believe that I chose boarding school over my twin. I was such a jerk.
I jerked my head up as I heard the door creak open. When the door was nearly half way open Eddie bobbed his head in and sarcastically said, "I'm allowed in here right?"
"No duh," I jokingly stated. I saw a smile awkwardly form in his lips, as he realized that I was very gradually getting better.
"Are you happy to be coming back to Anubis House today?" Eddie questioned, his smile growing even bigger, as he walked in gently closing the door behind him.
"I get to go home today!?" I yelled, an expression of shock and happiness crossing my face. I reached out with my good arm and yanked Eddie to my bed. He sat beside me and grinned even wider.
"Yeah, they are going to run a couple more tests in about five minutes, and if everything goes well, which it will, you'll be released." I whispered towards her.
I smiled as he spoke, it was the first time I had smiled since running down the stairs around week ago. "Will you stay with me during the tests?" I stated.
"Of course I will," Eddie kindly exclaimed, "as long as I am allowed to." The he leaned in and passionately kissed me, while rubbing circles on my back. I got into it and began kissing back. Only to hear the buzzer that meant that the nurses were coming in. I pulled away and Eddie glared at me confused.
"The nurses are coming in," I explained and then he climbed off my hospital bed and sat in the seat beside it. At that moment, the doors opened and Doctor Kingston entered.
"Patricia dear, I trust that this young man here has told you the exciting news?" Dr. Kingston stated turning to Eddie.
"Of course I did sir, also we would like to know if I could stay with her during the tests?" Eddie suggested. I could tell that he really did want to stay.
"It is fine with me as long as it is okay with the patient. Patricia?" the doctor told us.
"Actually, it was my idea to have Eddie stay with me," I explained.
"Alright, so we are going to run a blood test, a bone marrow test, and a pregnancy test in that order, and since you said that it is okay with you, Eddie will be allowed to stay with you the entire time," Dr. Kingston stated.
"Can I ask, why a pregnancy test?" Eddie stated, as I realized why he sounded so worried.
Then Dr. Kingston said, "Oh, it is just standard, you know just so that we know what types of pain medications we are open to giving female patients." Then a worried look crossed Eddie's face.
"Patricia, I promise to stand by you through all the tests," Eddie whispered in my ear. Then Dr. Kingston left.
A few minutes later, Dr. Kingston came back in and he sat me up. He strapped a band around my arm very tightly and I flinched. I think Eddie noticed because he grabbed my hand and squeezed it. Then the doctor took out a needle and inserted it into my vain Eddie could see that I was in pain, so he squeezed my hand harder, and kissed my cheek. A few minutes later the doctor pulled the needle from my arm and taped cotton wool to my arm. Eddie leaned over, hugging me, and kissing my temple passionately.
The doctor walked to a locked cabinet to get some new equipment. Then he layed me on my side in my hospital bed and Eddie layed next to me. He wrapped his long arms around me as the doctor opened up the back of my hospital gown. He squirted my back with numbing spray, it felt cold and it stung. Then he started inserting a needle back and forth, in and out of my back. Then he drilled an extremely long needle into my back and extracted my bone marrow. It hurt so bad that I actually whimpered. Eddie just pulled me closer comforting me. Then Dr. Kingston pulled the needle from my back and taped cotton wool onto my back.
"Yacker, just remember, you are doing this to be released. You will be able to join me and everybody else back at Anubis house, and you and I can hang out again," Eddie comforted me, "Just one more test left, I am just worried that it might be positive."
Then Dr. Kingston walked back in and handed me a pregnancy test. I got out of the bed and used my crutches to make my way to the bathroom. Then
I took the test, and waited 5 minutes or the results. I cleaned up being careful not to look at the results, and then I carried it out. I handed it to Dr. Kingston. Eddie helped me back onto the bed.
"Oh my," Dr. Kingston spoke, "Patricia it seems that the test is positive, do you happen to know who the father of this baby is?" A shocked look crossed my face, and Eddie ran over and hugged me. Great, I am an injured pregnant 16 year old. That is unheard of.
"Can I be released now?" was all that I could ask.
"Sure, just have the young man here sign your release papers," Dr. Kingston stated as he handed Eddie the clothes. "And also, I believe that Rehman will be here in a few minuets with your clothes," he added, then he left.
"I'm here for you and the baby babe. You don't know how much I love you," Eddie whispered in my ear.
