Chapter 15: Vagina Worries

I entered the gynecologist's office and ran up to the front desk. "uh, hi, my name is Wind Walter, I need an appointment immediately!"

the receptionist had fear in her eyes at my insistence. "uh, sure, oh dear it must be serious, can you have a seat please?" she asked.

"yeah," I said and turned to sit down,

but the receptionist said, "oh, and the only gynecologist we have on call for emergencies right now is Him... is that okay with you?"

I sighed. "ugh... yeah, that's okay." it's not like I could argue.

I sat down among all the over women with healthy vaginas, unlike mine. well I didn't know if it was unhealthy or not I mean it looked fine and normal and everything but then again the only one I'd ever seen was my own so who knew really. I'd heard rumors that some women carried weight in their fluffers but mine seemed pretty svelte. maybe if I ate more carbs that would be different, but it would probably just go to my thighs like all the other extra carbs I took in.

I started sweating from nervousness and realized it probably wasn't going to help the situation down there so I grabbed my peppermint breath spray and gave a little spritz up my skirt, i felt better then but the other women stared at me, I realized I probably should've gone into the bathroom to do that.

"um, I'm very sorry everyone, I am very stressed," I explained, and they all understood.

"don't worry, dearie," said an old lady I immediately recognized as the infamous Madame Foster, "you get used to it. and it's always good to make sure you're healthy."

"heh heh, right," I said, though I appreciated her kind words.

"Walter?" called the nurse from the door.

"that's your cue, girl!" said Madame Foster as I got up. "go get 'em, tiger!"

"thank you," I said and waved goodbye, maybe for the last time. the nurse took me in ripped my clothes off gave me a gown and shouted at me to go lie on a bed if I knew what was good for me.

"sheesh, what a bitch," I muttered, sitting down.

as I got myself all settled and shit I saw a familiar woman walk by. it was Dr. Holliday, she knew Rex and was sort of his adoptive mother even though he flirted with her which was incredibly sickening.

"oh, hello there Wind. I see you've finally come to your senses and scheduled a doctor's visit." she said.

"uh, y-yeah, Dr. Holliday," I stuttered. Dr. Holliday was my mom's gynecologist so she knew I hadn't seen one yet even though it would've prevented all of this from happening.

she said goodbye and I had about two seconds of calm until the door opened and in stepped Him. he was wearing a doctor's coat and gloves over his regular garb and his claws (they were specially-made gloves that were shaped like his claws)

"ah, good afternoon, Ms. Walter!" he said his voice echoing around the room and giving me a headache. "I understand you're in for an emergency checkup? could you tell me what has you troubled?"

"hello Dr. Him," I said, "I am ehere because I used to have sex with my exboyfriend on a filthy kitchen floor (it was Burger Frenzy you see) and now I'm having sex with my exexboyfriend who is now my current boyfriend again, and I don't want him to get sick I love him so much I want to make sure I'm clean, can you help me out Doc?"

"there's very little Him the Love Doctor can't do!" Him said happily and walked up to me and began the examination. sure enough his claws were murder on my clam but it had to be done.

"alright, Mrs. Walter, I'm going to go grab the pap smears, be right back" siad Dr. Holliday and she left the room.

"wait a minute... Mrs. Walter?!" I asked and turned to the curtain drawn next to me. "Mom?!"

"Wind? is that you?" asked my Mom.

"yeah, it's me!" I said. "I didn't know you had an appointment today."

"and I didn't know you did, either!" she said. "everything okay, honey?"

"I, uh... I don't know."

"I will soon enough, Mrs. Walter," assured Him. "your daughter is in good hands."

"okay, that puts my mind at ease."

it doesn't put my clam at ease, I thought, because dang, Him's claws hurt.

"so how are things going with Curtis?" Mom asked through the curtain.

"uh, well, actually, we broke up," I explained. "but it was on good terms. we're still friends."

"oh, I'm sorry to hear that. but I'm happy you could still be friends."

"yeah, so now I'm dating Dexter again."

"oh really?!" Mom said. she'd always liked Dexter and was happy that her daughter had snagged a catch like that. "that's wonderful Wind! when can I see him again?"

"well, uh," I said thinking about how I'd abrutply left right before making whoopie to him. "I, uh... I'll let you know."

"oh, my..." said Him, concrended.

"what's wrong Doctor?!" I asked scared.

"Ms. Walter, may I speak with you in the other room, please?" Him asked.

"uh, yeah, sure," I said getting up. "I'll meet you in the waiting room, 'kay Mom?"

"sure, honey," she said. "hope you get a clean bill of health!"

"me too," I said and followed Him into his office.

I sat down across from him at his desk. he had his claws clasped together after removing the gloves and he had a sad look on his face, like he wasn't sure how to tell me something.

"give it to me straight, Doc," I pleaded. "what's wrong with my vafina?"

"Ms. Walter," Him began, "I'm afraid you have chlamydia."

my whole body went cold. "... chlamydia?"

"it is a disease of the clam, hence the name, that often presents no symptoms but is deadly if left untreated."

"h-how long have I had it?" I asked.

Him sighed. "according to the report, five years now."

"five years...?" I thought aloud, slowly realizing what this meant. "Doctor, how long do I have to live?"

Him gave me a look of pity. "two years, Ms. Walter."

I slowly looked down at myself, shaking. two years. twnety-four months. seventeen thousand, five hundred thirty one hours."... o-oh..."

"I'm terribly sorry for the news, Ms. Walter," said Him offering me a cookie from a jar on his desk. "please, if there is anything you need, don't hesitate to call."

"th-thank you, Him," I said, taking the cookie, then I started crying. "h-how am I going to tell my boyfriend?!"

"have you two been sexually active?" asked Him.

"yeah, we made love last night, and before that I used to have sex all the time with my now ex-boyfriend... what if they're both sick?!"

"I can call my colleagues at the general hospital and ask if they can scan your boyfriends stealthily. they'll never know, unless they actually are sick, in which case we'll handle whatever their cases may be."

"thank you."

I got up and made for the door. "um, Dr. Him, there's one more thing I want to ask about, but I'm not sure if it makes me a bad person or not..."

"what's that, Ms. Walter?" asked Him. "I'm a doctor, you can ask me anything."

"well... you see, I am a woman with needs... does this mean I'll never be able to have sex again until I die?"

"ah," Him said, smiling. "well, not with humans, anyway. but some aliens are immune to human STIs. so are demons. and of course using a condom would protect your boygfriend if you really needed to have sex with him."

"I don't know if I could still make love to Dexter after this... after what I've exposed him to," I said, biting my lip to keep from crying. "and I don't find Demongo attractive, either. his voice is too high."

"whatever you decide to do, Ms. Walter, I will help you every step of the way."

"thank you, Doctor."

I left his office and took a bite out of the cookie. mm, oatmeal raisin. at least that could cheer me up in this nightmare of a day.

I went into the waiting room to find my Mom. she waved at me from the seats near the door. "hi, honey! how did your appointment go?"

"uh, it went great, Mom," I lied, but I just couldn't admit to her that I was sick. "hey, uh, I have to go interrogate a tree, I'll see you tonight for dinner, okay?"

"oh, that sounds like fun! can I come along?" asked my Mom.

"uh, sure, if you want," I said, even though I just wanted to be alone right now, but it was okay we both left the doctor's office and headed for Bravo Beach.

(hey, just want to let everyone know i know the depiction of chlamydia isn't right. i wrote it a long time ago sorry. yes people have died from it and yes often there are no symptoms in women i think but this isn't how it works at all also its a bacterial nfection not a disease. but it's important to the story so I left it as is sorry.)
