"Okay. I will allow you to do the tests. I just need to know that this baby is going to be healthy. I guess I'm just a little scared. I was never allowed to go to a doctor before. At least after I was held captive for so long." Jessalyn explained as we led her up to Carlisle's little exam room.
She hopped up on the table as Carlisle got ready to do the tests. I told her not to worry. I'd be there to help her as much as possible. She smiled at me a bit. She had warmed up to me because I had helped her. It was the least I could do to help her.
She asked if Jasper could come up to be with us as well. It was an unusual request, but I told her if it would make her happy then I'd go to get him. She smiled again. I went to find Jasper. It wasn't very hard considering he heard us on the floor below. I met him about halfway down the stairs.
He looked at me questioningly. I watched him for a minute. I wasn't sure if he was questioning how strong he could be around her, or if it was something else completely. I placed my hand on his shoulder. Then I placed my other hand on his face, pulling it to mine kissing him.
He followed me back upstairs. We went to stand on either side of Jessalyn. Carlisle gave us warning glances. I think he was telling us not to touch her if we could help it. We'd do our best to not touch her. It didn't take Carlisle long to get the blood samples and the other tests he needed done.
That was only for the STD's and STI's. Now Carlisle was going to do an exam to check on the baby. It was a little more of an evasive exam. Carlisle had asked us to step just outside of the door while he did this. Jessalyn seemed to be fine with just Carlisle there. She didn't need to worry about Carlisle hurting her anyway. I stood in the hall listening to Jessalyn's heartbeat.
I looked away from the door for a moment to see Jasper's face. He looked upset for some reason. I had to wonder why. I wondered if he'd bring it up or if I'd have to ask him. I decided after a moment of hesitation that I would ask him what was bothering him.
"Jasper, what is bothering you? I've haven't seen you so upset about something for a while." I told him.
He looked down for a minute. I could tell he was trying to think of how to phrase something. "I think Jessalyn has a crush on me. That's what her emotions are telling me whenever we are together. I don't think she'll act on it, but it concerns me that she might try to."
"I think you might be right. She asked for you when I was coming down to get you. I thought that was odd, but just brushed it off though. I really wouldn't worry about that too much Jasper." I said.
"Well that's not the part that concerns me. Edward was reading her thoughts. He told me that she does have a crush. On two different people. One boy and one girl." Jasper explained.
I got wide eyed for a second. Then I understood for a second. "She likes both of us?" I asked.
Jasper nodded. "I think so. I could be misreading everything. I have done that before." Jasper said.
I thought about this for a minute. If it were true, then there was no harm in letting her have her little crushes. She wasn't hurting anyone. If it wasn't true, then it still wouldn't hurt anything. I thought it would be better to keep this to ourselves. There was no need to embarrass anyone.
