A/N: Okay, so I'm glad you all liked the last chapter… you've all had some questions about Billy and Carlisle. Well they were acting out because they are the fathers. My grandpa is always telling me that I can't have a boyfriend till I'm 25 and he's over protective. Carlisle and Billy were just being way too over protective.
Chapter 37
I walked into the doctor's office. It was the typical women's clinic. There were womanly brochures on the tables talking about STDs and menstrual cycles. There were a few couches and chairs lined around the waiting room with various outdated magazines piled on the small tables.
I walked up to the check in counter and a woman in her middle thirties was talking on the phone. "Yes Mrs. Smith, you're daughter's appointment is tomorrow at three o'clock. Thank you." The woman placed the phone down and turned her attention to me. "Hello, name?"
"Isabella Swan." I answered.
She typed in my name and turned around grabbing a file. "The doctor will be right with you but I need you to fill out a new information sheet." She handed me a clipboard with a pink sheet on it, a pen attached.
"Thank you." I turned around to find a chair.
I sat on one of the couches and looked over the information. I started out by filling out my address and pulled my insurance card out of my purse and filled in the information. Then the questions came.
Are you sexually active? I hesitated and checked yes. "Thank you Edward." I thought sarcastically.
If you checked yes do you use protection? I thought about it and really couldn't remember. I doubted it so I checked no once again thanking Edward. Jeez I was in a bad mood.
Are you on birth control? I checked yes, I figured at my last check up that it would be a good idea regardless if I were active.
Have you been vaccinated with Gardisil? No.
I answered the other questions like do you have umpteen STDs. I checked no to all of them. When they asked if I did drugs I laughed because I couldn't pronounce most of them much less know how to take them. Finally when everything was marked I walked up and handed the lady my paper.
She smiled and buzzed in the doctor. "Miss Swan?" Doctor Green appeared from behind the door and I followed her through to the examination room. "How are you today?" She motioned for me to sit on the paper-covered table.
"I've been better." I yawned and she checked my heartbeat and various other things.
"Really, how are you feeling?" She pushed for details.
I shrugged. "Tired, stressed, and my stomach is a little queasy."
She looked at me questionably. "Well, I'll take some blood work." She slipped the thermometer into my mouth. "Would you like to get Gardasil?" She looked over my records.
I shrugged. "Sure."
She nodded asking me some more questions and then pulled out the needle. "Okay dear, I'm warning you this is going to sting." She pulled out a needle and my eyes widened. Maybe I should have asked Edward to come with me. "What's wrong dear?"
I clenched my eyes shut. "I'm not to fond of needles."
She chuckled. "Oh, well it'll be over soon."
I felt the prick of the needle and then the excruciating pain of the vaccine. Finally it was over. I let out a sigh of relief and she placed the band-aid over my skin. "See, that wasn't too bad." She got up placing the empty needle in the container.
"Now I need to take your blood for the tests." Great, two needles in one trip. This one was a lot less painful and was over in seconds. "Okay honey, you better call someone to come pick you up. The Gardasil affects every person differently. Until we know how it affects you it's best you don't drive." She left the room after putting the blood in the container.
I called Edward but he didn't pick up. So I figured he had football practice. I then called Alice but remembered she was grounded for the whole Jasper thing. The only other person I could think of was the very person I was avoiding. Riley."
I scrolled through my contacts and hit the send button when I reached his name. He picked up on the second ring. "Hello?"
I took a deep breath. "Hey Riley it's Bella, I need a ride home."
He sighed. "Okay, where are you?"
"The women's clinic in town." I played idly with the white paper.
"Why are you there?" He paused. "Okay never mind my question. I'll be right there."
I got up and went back in the waiting room placing my phone back in my pocket. I yawned again and couldn't realize why I was so tired. I slumped into the chair and a few minutes later Riley walked in the door standing in front of me.
"Are you ready?" I nodded and stood up feeling a little weak.
"Be careful dear." Doctor Green came out of the doorway. "Is this your boyfriend? You should hold on to him. He's quite a looker."
I blushed. "He's not my boyfriend."
Riley had a firm grip on his emotions and Doctor Green laughed. "Well, he certainly is a nice friend."
I nodded and smiled. "The best."
Riley helped me out the door and to his car and I slumped into the seat. He pulled the seatbelt over me and watched me cautiously. When he got in the car the questions started. "Are you sick or something."
I shrugged. "I don't know. I don't feel to well. Today was just my check up. She gave me this vaccine crap and she said it affects different people different ways. I am kind of tired though." I yawned again. "She took some blood so she'll call me when she gets the results."
We drove past my truck and out of the cul-de-sac. "So why couldn't Edward come get you?"
I leaned back into the seat. "He has football practice I assume. He didn't pick up his phone."
"Really?" He didn't sound convinced but I let it go.
"Yes really. So why aren't you with Tanya?" If he could pry, so could I.
He was about to answer when my phone rang. "Hello?"
"Bella? What did you need? Is everything alright?" Edward was way too overprotective.
"Yeah, I needed a ride home but I got it. I need someone to pick up my truck though." I fumbled with my keys.
"For what? Why?" I really wasn't in the mood for this.
"Because I got stabbed by two needles and this stupid vaccine crap got pushed into my blood so I'm a little woozy. The doctor wouldn't let me drive so I called someone. Actually I called the only one who would pick up." Riley pulled into my driveway and sat while I finished my conversation. "Hold on Edward."
"Thanks for the ride." I leaned over and pecked Riley on the cheek.
"No problem. By Bella." He smiled and I got out of the car still a little annoyed with the whole Riley Tanya thing.
"Okay, go." I told Edward.
"Well I would have picked up but we had a family meeting." His voice fell and I tensed up.
"About what?" I opened the front door and walked past Billy grabbing a granola bar and a mountain dew.
"Come on over and I'll tell you." He hung up the phone and since I felt okay I ran upstairs to ask Jake to run and get my truck. I'm sure Embry or Quil could help him out.
I knocked on his door. "Come in."
I walked in and he smiled. "Hey stranger, it's weird how we live in the same house, but never see each other." I sat cross-legged next to him on his bed.
"Yeah, I guess so. So what can I do you for?" He cut to the chase.
"I need you to run and get my truck. I'm not allowed to operate heavy machinery."
He nodded. "Sure, I'll call Embry."
I gave him a quick hug and jumped off the bed having to steady myself. Stupid dizziness. He didn't seem to notice so I kept on walking till I reached my room. I threw myself on my bed taking a big swallow of mountain dew. I unwrapped the granola bar and bit into its peanut butter chocolaty goodness.
I finished my snack and screwed the cap on my mountain dew. Figuring it was time to hear about the secretive family news I opened my window and stepped from my roof to Edward's. I knocked lightly on the window and Edward lifted it his eyes a little puffy.
"Edward?" He pulled me through the window and onto the bed burring his face in my stomach.
"Edward? What's wrong?" His tears stained my shirt as he placed kissed on my stomach holding me closer to him.
"Bella." He cried my name and confusion overwhelmed me.
"Edward? What's going on?" I pulled his face up so he was looking at me in the eyes.
"Bella, we're moving." He whispered the last part so softly that I had to make sure my ears were right.
"Huh?" I searched his eyes for foul play.
"We're moving. The whole family. We're moving to North Carolina."
A/N: So, Bella has some disease and Edward's moving. Great. What more can go wrong? You asked me not to end the story so I went with you wishes. Hope you liked the twist!
