Chapter 5: Doctor's Visit

A week had passed since Bee had second thoughts. Everything seemed well; her friends were secretly planning to make her a nursery, Eric's team is in the finals, and both Eric and her were going to a doctor's visit to check up on the babies.

They were at the doctor's office, Bee sitting on the patient's bench in a black sweater and a khaki skirt. Eric was standing next to her in dark jeans a white t-shirt and a black suit jacket.

"Hello Bee," said the female doctor. She just walked into the room. "How are you?"

"I'm fine Dr. Hathaway," she replied and then turned to Eric. "This is my fiancée Eric."

"Nice to meet you," said Eric shaking hands with the doctor.

"Like wise," she said. "Ok Bee I'm going to test your blood, you know to make sure your not anemic or anything. Just roll up your sleeve."

Bee did what she was told and rolled up the black sleeve. Dr. Hathaway quickly punctured her skin and took a sample of blood. "I'll be right back," she said and ran the sample of blood over to the lab.

When she returned she brought along a portable ultra-sound machine. Bee lay down on the doctor's bench thing and the doctor lifted Bee's sweater to revel her large stomach and put some gel on it. She turned the screen on and moved the little metal thing on Bee's stomach.

"Look, there's the baby boy and there's the girl," said Dr. Hathaway pointing to each one on the screen.

Eric looked mesmerized. This was his first time seeing them. Touching the screen, he whispered. "Hi you guys. I'm your dada. I can't wait for you guys to be born. Your mommy and I'll get you guys to be pro soccer players in no time."

"Honey," said Bee touch Eric's arm. "You know they won't be able to walk for another year after they're born."

"I know," he replied. "But I'm just so excited that I'm gonna be a dad. I just want to show them right away."

"You will in time," she replied.

They look at the screen for another 10 minutes before the doctor stopped.

"Eric, Bee," said Dr Hathaway. "We give our patients who are having twins these dolls that act like really babies for practice. I mean you know that babies will keep you up late at night crying and so our clinic gives out dolls to practice what it's going to be like to be a parent. Unfortunately, we ran out a stock, but we ordered another shipment of them and they should arrive within the next two to three weeks. I'll call you guys when they come in."

"Thanks doctor," said Eric shaking hands with her.

"No problem," she replied. "So Bee, see you in two weeks. Call if anything unusual comes up."

"Ok," she replied. "Bye."

"Bye," called the doctor.

Bee and Eric headed out of the building towards Bee's BMW. Bee unlocked the car and handed Eric the keys.

They drove in silence for the first couple minutes.

"Hey Bee?" said Eric.

"Yeah, hon?" she replied.

"Look I know we haven't talked much about the wedding," he began. "I know you want to have it before the babies arrive."
"Yeah," said Bee putting a hand on her stomach. "I do, but Eric, your busy right now. We have to wait until after soccer season."

"Yeah I know," said Eric. "The finals are coming up. We can have the wedding afterwards. I mean let's have Thanksgiving at our house this year. We can have the wedding the day afterwards. It will be perfect."

"Um…I guess. I mean I have a lot to be thankful for this year, you being here for me, the babies, my friends. I guess the day after Thanksgiving seems good."

"Then it's settled. We're going to get married in two months!"

"I love you, Bee."

"I love you, too, Eric."

Meanwhile…

"Girls, you all know why we're here right?" Lena asked Tibby and Carmen. "We need to organize stuff for the new babies' room."

"But don't you want to throw her a baby shower?" asked Tibby. "I mean Carmen really liked the one we threw for her when she was expecting Jake."

Carmen flashed Tibby a grin.

"Yeah, but don't we want to give Bee something that will last her a while. I mean she hasn't even started with the nursery yet and she's six months pregnant. Pretty soon she'll be on bed rest and what would happen then. The babies would have nowhere to sleep when they're born."

"Ok," said Tibby. "I guess you're right. Well, we all have to pitch in in getting the materials and stuff; I can get the paint. How about pale yellow? I can also get pale green curtains. It'll look great together."

"I can get the beds and bed spread stuff, pink for the girl and blue for the boy," said Lena.

"And I can get the stuff animals," said Carmen excited. "Oh this is gonna be great. Bee'll love it."

"You guys," said Carmen. "We need to figure out a date when we can fix up the room. We have to make sure Bee and Eric are out of the house for the whole day."
"Yeah," said Tibby. "And we have to do it fast since Bee will be on bed rest soon."

"How about on Tuesday the 2nd of November," said Lena looking at the calendar. "We'll make sure Eric goes to birth class with Bee and that should give us time to get everything together."

"Ok," said Tibby and Carmen together.

So for the rest of the morning, they all planned what they were going to buy for the room. They called up Bee's friend, Tracy, who offered to make the twins little special blankets with their names on them.

"Hey Naughty. It's Bee," said Bee.

"Oh hi, how are you."

"Pretty good. Hey listen, Eric and I set up our wedding date."

"Oh good, when is it?"

"It's going to be on the day after Thanksgiving. I hope you can come."

"I'll be there."

"Great."

Bee hung up the phone. She was tired. Ever since she got home she had been calling up all her friends and family to tell them about the wedding. Eric was patient, letting her call everyone.

Bee went upstairs and changed into her nightgown. Eric was already in bed watching the news. He was only wearing his boxers.

"Hey sweetie," she said getting into bed and kissing him.

"Hey," he replied. "Called everyone?"

"Yup," she replied. "Oh my gosh I'm so tired. And I have so much stuff I still got to do. Call up the flower shop, find a minister, call up the caterers, find a wedding dress…"

"Honey," he said. "You'll be able to do it. Don't think about now, just relax."

He turned off the TV and started to massage her back. Bee closed her eyes and fell asleep.

It took Eric awhile to drift off to sleep. He was worried about Bee; she seemed to be getting stressed. The doctor said that Bee shouldn't get stress because it can cause early labor. Maybe he shouldn't have brought up the subject of the wedding. And suddenly the thought of being a father struck him. 'Was he really ready? He turned to look at Bee. Was she right in saying they rushed into having kids?' That night he didn't sleep well.

"Eric," called Bee. "Help me."

Bee was lying in a bed surrounded by doctors. She was covered in blood and kept calling him. Doctors were rushing her to the operating room. She looked so helpless.

Eric was following her trying to soothe her. The doctors took her into the operating room and one of the nurses stopped him from going any farther. He asked what was wrong with Bee and were the babies ok. Over and Over he asked, but the nurse refused to answer.

He sat on a bench outside the operating room waiting. Minutes seemed like hours. Why weren't the doctors updating him on Bee's condition? Bee's voice seemed to echo in his mind. He felt so helpless, out-of-control. He wished he could help her. Then one of the doctors walked out of the room covered in blood. He walked up to Eric with a sadden face. "I'm sorry. There was nothing we can do to save her."

Eric starting crying hysterically, both of his hands covering his face. "Nooooooooooo!"

Eric woke up sweating and turned to see Bee sleeping peacefully. 'It was only a dream,' he thought. 'But it seemed so real.'
