Chapter Ten – What's Wrong With Me?
Christmas came and went by quickly for the twins and before they knew it, it was the day of Peyton's doctor's appointment. Both girls were up early as Maddy also had her twelve-week ultrasound scan at the local hospital. Maddy was very excited about her scan as it would be the first time that she and Matt would see their baby. They still hadn't told anyone about it especially Peyton because they feared that it would upset her. Peyton had been trying to get pregnant for four months now and still hadn't managed it, yet Maddy hadn't even been trying and here she was twelve weeks pregnant with her first child. Maddy knew that she could have gone to St. Mungo's before now and had a scan but she wanted to do things the Muggle way. At half past two in the afternoon, Peyton said goodbye to Maddy and walked out of the apartment. She then walked slowly to the family planning clinic. By the time she got there it was ten to three so she walked in slowly and went to the reception desk. The receptionist looked up at her and smiled.
"Hi, I have an appointment with Doctor Miller," Peyton said to the receptionist.
"Name?" the receptionist replied.
"Peyton Potter."
The receptionist nodded and looked at her computer then said, "Please take a seat. The doctor will call you through shortly."
Peyton nodded and sat down. After a few minutes of waiting, Peyton looked at her watch and saw that it was now three o' clock. She looked at the door and sighed whilst wondering where Ben was. She heard her name and looked towards the desk. She saw a plump, middle-aged woman with greying hair smiling at her.
"Do you want to come through now?" the doctor asked.
Peyton nodded slowly and stood up. She then followed the doctor into a sky blue room and sat down in a chair near the desk. The doctor sat down and smiled at her.
"Could we just wait for a few minutes please? My boyfriend said he'd be here," Peyton said quietly.
The doctor nodded and looked at her computer. After ten minutes the doctor looked at Peyton.
"I think we should begin. How long have you been trying to get pregnant?"
"Since September. I fell out of a tree when I was fourteen though. I didn't know it at the time but I was three months pregnant. Sadly I lost the baby so I was thinking that maybe it had something to do with that," Peyton explained.
The doctor nodded then thought for a few seconds.
"Okay then. I'll hook you up to an ultrasound scanner and I'll have a look at you. Could you lie on the bed for me and unbutton your jeans."
Peyton did as she was told. The doctor lifted Peyton's top up so her stomach was exposed and got a bottle of clear gel.
"Now this will feel cold at first but it will soon warm up," Doctor Miller told Peyton.
Peyton nodded then shuddered when the cold gel touched her skin. Doctor Miller then put the white wand onto the gel and looked at the small screen in front of her as she moved the wand around Peyton's stomach. She did this for fifteen minutes then nodded and switched the screen off. Doctor Miller then wiped the wand with a piece of blue tissue and put it on the screen. She then handed a piece of tissue to Peyton. Peyton wiped her stomach and did her buttons up then sat back down by the desk. Doctor Miller put the ultrasound scanner back then sat down herself.
"What did you find?" Peyton asked.
She was scared of what the doctor was going to tell her. Her world would end if she were infertile.
"Well, you do have a great deal of scar tissue on your womb. I'm guessing that the miscarriage you had has caused that. You also have a great deal of damage to your uterus. Not only is there the scar tissue but it also looks like only one of your ovaries is working. It seems that your right ovary isn't releasing any eggs into the fallopian tube," the doctor explained.
"How much is a great deal?" Peyton asked feeling unsure if she wanted to know the answer.
"A great deal is a lot. From what I could see the lining of your womb is mostly made up of scar tissue."
"So am I able to have a baby?"
"I can't say. You may never conceive naturally but you can keep trying."
Peyton nodded then got up and walked over to the door. She opened it slowly and looked at the doctor.
"Thank you," she said.
The doctor nodded then said, "You're welcome. Good Luck."
Peyton said goodbye then walked out of the clinic and slowly walked back to the apartment. Once she got inside she stormed into her bedroom and glared at Ben. He looked at her and knew instantly that he had missed the appointment.
"What?" he asked.
"Where were you? You didn't turn up to the appointment!" Peyton exclaimed feeling rather annoyed.
"I forgot," Ben said as he shrugged her shoulders.
"What do you mean you forgot? How could you forget?" Peyton shouted.
"I just forgot! It's not like it was important anyway!" Ben shouted back.
"It was important to me. You haven't even asked me about it."
Ben looked at her and frowned.
"Alright how did it go?" he asked.
"Well we can keep trying but we may never have a baby. Only one of my ovaries is working and I have scar tissue on my uterus," Peyton explained.
Ben frowned again and hugged her. Once he was sure that Peyton couldn't see his face he grinned to himself. Now that he knew that, he knew that he didn't have to worry about her getting pregnant.
January turned into February and before the twins knew it, it was their birthday and they were stood in the kitchen of Grimmauld Place surrounded by their family. After they had blown out their candles on their birthday cakes, Maddy looked at Matt and nodded.
"Actually while you're all quiet," she said, "Matt and I have something to tell you. As you all know we're getting married June the twenty ninth but we're going to be celebrating something else on August the ninth. I'm pregnant!"
Everybody looked at her in amazement and started to congratulate her and Matt. Peyton looked at them both then ran out of the kitchen and to her childhood bedroom. Once she was inside she flung herself down on her old bed and started to cry. Ellie had seen her leave the kitchen and followed her sister upstairs. She gently knocked on the door and walked into the bedroom. She saw Peyton on the bed and sat down on it. She then put her hand on Peyton's shoulder.
"Peyt? What's wrong?" Ellie asked.
"Nothing," Peyton replied.
"There has to be something wrong. I know you and you wouldn't cry unless there was something wrong."
Peyton looked at Ellie and noticed that her hair was the same messy, jet-black hair it had always been. Ellie hadn't changed one bit and that included her knowing that something was wrong even though she had been told that there was nothing wrong.
"Okay I'm jealous. Jealous because Maddy's getting a wedding and now she's getting a baby. I may never have a baby because I have a damaged uterus. And we're twins! We do everything together. We planned we'd do everything together!"
Ellie sighed and looked at her little sister.
"You will get married. Someone will ask you and you will definitely have a baby. You may never conceive but if that happens then I'll have it for you. You only have to ask me and I'd do it in a flash. But now is not the right time. You will know when the right time is when it happens and as for you two being twins. Not everything is going to happen the way you plan it," Ellie explained.
Peyton nodded and hugged Ellie.
"Thank you. That would mean a lot to me," Peyton told her.
Ellie grinned and stood up. She held out her hand and helped Peyton up. As they were walking down the stairs Ellie looked at Peyton and spoke.
"You have the best job. You get to play with the kids then hand them back to us! Are you ready to go back in?"
"No. I might just go home. I feel a bit ill," Peyton lied.
Ellie nodded and they both walked back into the kitchen. Ginny saw them walk in and hurried over to them whilst carrying Sirius who was now a year old.
"Are you okay dear?" Ginny asked while she fought with a struggling Sirius.
"Yes mum. I'm feeling a bit peaky. I might go home to bed," Peyton replied.
Ginny nodded and looked at Sirius who was still squirming.
"Sirius! Would you stay still for two seconds while I talk to your sisters!" she said strictly to him.
Harry had heard her and came over to see what was happening. After being told that Peyton was going home he told Ben to take her home. He didn't want that boy in his house if Peyton wasn't going to be there. After Peyton was gone, there was a knock on the front door and Harry went to answer it. When he opened the door he saw a very familiar brown haired, blue-eyed boy.
"Dan?" he asked.
Dan looked at him and smiled.
"Hey Mr Potter. How are you doing?" Dan said to Harry.
"What are you doing here?"
"Well, I live in Oxford now and I was meeting my friend from Uni when I saw Peyton. Ever since then I can't stop thinking about her. I was stupid breaking up with her and I never should have done it. Is she here? I need to talk to her, I need to tell her that I still love her," Dan explained.
"She's not here. She doesn't live here now. She lives in Oxford; you've actually just missed her. I'll give you the address."
Dan nodded and watched as Harry wrote Peyton's address down. He then handed him the paper and smiled.
"Please make her fall for you. I can't stand the person she's with now. He's too overprotective," Harry told him.
Dan nodded and said goodbye before walking away to a secluded place to apparate back to Oxford.
