Ch.12, Womanly Issues

Greivous returned Charlie to the medical room after hearing her groan about a sharp pain in her side.

He noticed that some of the stitches had came apart, "medical droid get in here." he spoke into the intercom.

"What is it? " asked Charlie as he pushed her down to lay flat on the table, "What are you doing?"

Grievous did answer her, he looked up when the medical droid entered. He showed the droid the problem.

"Oh my..." stated the droid.

Charlie looked between the two, "What is it?" She cried. Grievous pinned her down to keep her still.

"This might hurt." he said making her look at him trying to clam her down.

The medical droid pulled out a needle, a sowing needle, and medical yarn.

"Oh shit!" she cried and started fighting Grievous, she did not know she is bleeding.

He held her down, "Stop it You'll make it worse by fighting!"

The medical sat down the sowing things and filled the needle with a drug. Charlie looked at it, "What are you doing! Let me go!" her fighting started to die down from her lack of blood.

The medical droid saw its chance and stuck her with the needle and hurriedly fixed the stitches. Once it was done it backed away and Grievous released his hold on Charlie. Charlie tried to sit up but fell back against the table and passed out.

Grievous left for the moment and returned with a blanket and new clothes for her. He picked her up so the droid could clean up the blood.

He took her to the nearest bathing room and laid her out on to a cleaning table. Grievous stripped her out of the bloody clothes and washed her down. Then dried her off and dressed her into some white hospital shirt and pants.

He wrapped her in the blanket and walked to his chambers. He laid her back down on the table and left her be.

Charlie woke up with Grievous back to her, he was staring out of the window looking into the on going space. He knew she was awake by the sudden change in her breathing.

"Glad that you came to join me int the land of the living," he said continuing to look out the window.

"Why did you attack me?" asked Charlie.

"Your stitches split and you were bleeding" stated Grievous.

"You could have just told me instead of freaking me out!" she snapped at him.

"Sorry." he mumbled.

Charlie sat up a little to fast and became light headed and fell over, "Oww"

"You don't need to move a lot. You lost a lot of blood," said Grievous.

Charlie who was now on the floor growled, "You could have told me that before I fell!"

"Didn't think of it." he turned around and walked over to her. He picked her up and sat her on his lap once he sat down.

Charlie got mad of course, "Why are you suddenly being nice to me?"

"Do I have to have a reason?"

"Yeah!" she tried to get up.

He sighed, "You're hurt, is that not reason enough?" he holds her still in his lap.

"It would be nice if you wouldn't baby me so much." she gave up and started panting from being tired, then she tried to get free again.

Grievous sat her on the table, "Better?"

"Yes" she mumbled getting in her usual ball holding herself.

"Why do you do that?" he cocked his head to the side watching her.

"None of your business!" she felt her stomach cramping.

Grievous cocked his head the other way, "What's wrong?"

Charlie then realizes what is wrong with herself, she jumped up and ran to the bathroom, "Oh no... please don't let it be that! "

"Be what?" asked Grievous watching her.

"None of your business!" she called back to him and ran out of his chambers sliding on the floor almost falling down. Then ran to the nearest bathroom. Grievous followed her to make sure she didn't get hurt.

Charlie ran into the bathroom and a few minutes passed, "DAMMIT!" passing droids stopped and looked at the bathroom.

"What are you staring at! GET BACK TO WORK!" Grievous yelled at them and watched them run off.

Charlie was still in the bathroom. She locked the door when she heard Grievous outside. "Shit, shit, shit, shit!" she said pacing the bathroom.

Grievous tried to open the door, "Charlie unlock this door!" he sounded like a parent.

"NO! Go away!" she yelled at the door.

Grievous heard something being slid in front of the door. Charlie ran into a stall and locked the stall, "Shit, shit, shit!"

Grievous finally broke down the door and saw she had pushed a bench in the way of it. He then headed for Charlie's stall. "Charlie opened the stall door!"

"NO!" she snapped at him.

"Charlie don't make me break down this door!"

Charlie got on the floor and rolled out of the stall, Grievous didn't notice her sneaking out of the bathroom.

Grievous then broke down the stall door and found no Charlie, "Charlie!" he yelled.

Charlie tried to run. She turned down a hallway and found it was a dead end. She heard Grievous storming after her on a warpath, she tried to run again but ran smack into him.

He caught her before she fell backwards and dragged her back to his chambers.

Charlie was trying to keep her legs closed so he wouldn't see the blood. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." holding the end of the white shirt down to cover her front.

Grievous saw how funny she was walking, "Walk right Charlie..."

"I would but... I... um..." her face turned red.

"You what?" he looked down at her.

Charlie didn't have the guts to tell him, "Nothing, I'm just tired." she looked away trying to pull the shirt down more.

Grievous grabbed her hands making the shirt come up. He cocked his head at the sight of blood. Charlie looked down and started crying.

Grievous picked her up and walked off towards the medical wing, 'I hope it's not what I think it is.'

The medical droid started laughing once he finished checking Charlie. It walked back out in the hallway where Grievous was waiting.

"She is alright General, all human females go through their period. It normally last five to seven days once a month." Said the medical droid.

"Oh no! Is there nothing that can be done?" asked Grievous.

"No sir, its part of the human females life. It'll pass with in a week or so. But I don't know why she won't come out of the bathroom." sighed the medical droid.

Grievous walked into the room to the bathroom, "CHARLIE! Come out of the bathroom!"

Charlie however was in the shower, covering her ears and crouching down in a corner.

Grievous growled and drew back a hand as if he was about to break down the door, but the medical droid stopped him, "STOP WHAT ARE YOU DOING I HAVE A KEY!" Grievous grabbed the key from the medical droid and opened the door. He then looked at a soaking wet mad Charlie.

Charlie glared and growled, "I can't even take a bath can I?" as she covered herself some more, not that he hadn't already seen her naked before.

"Why won't you come out of the bathroom?" asked Grievous.

"Cause I stink so I'm taking a bath!" she hissed.

"You know good and well what I'm talking about. You can't stay in here all week." Sighed Grievous.

"Actually I can," said Charlie as she grabbed a towel and wrapped it around herself.

"You don't have to do that you know. And anyways, no you can't." he said crossing his arms.

"Well I am!" said Charlie glaring at him.

"No you're not!" said Grievous as he walked into the bathroom and turned off the water. "Even if I have to drag you out!" he grabbed her arm and pulled her toward the door.

"No no no no no! I'm still naked!" cried Charlie as she grabbed a handle bar and held on to it for dear life as well trying to keep herself covered.

Grievous let her go and threw some clothes at her. Charlie sighed when she found they were still white hospital clothes, but she put them on anyway. Once she was done she walked passed him a little too casual.

"Where are you going?" asked Grievous crossing his arms in front of himself watching her.

Charlie stopped and thought for a moment then tore from the room. Grievous sighed and ran off after her.
