"Go ahead and lie down on the table, Skye."
Skye lay down on the doctor's table and the glass shield went up and Dr. Shannon started a full body scan. Maddy stood beside her mother watching her intently.
"What is it we are looking for exactly, Skye?" Dr. Shannon gave Skye a skeptical look.
"Uh..." Skye fought for an answer. "Just look for anything wrong. I... just haven't been feeling well lately."
Dr. Shannon gave Skye another look. "Well, what have your symptoms been? I can't help you until I get a basic idea."
"Mom." Maddy murmered. "Skye doesn't want to say unless you see something. So just check for everything, okay?"
Dr. Shannon sighed. "Well I could run a body test but it could take an hour or so before it is completed. If anything strange pops up, we will know."
"Sounds perfect." Maddy said with a smile.
Dr. Shannon toyed with the screen for a minute and the scan was iniciated. Before exiting the room, Dr. Shannon gave Skye a quizzical look. "You know Skye, I may be your boss, but when it comes to medical problems I am your doctor. You can tell me anything."
"I know, Dr. Shannon." Skye murmered.
But the doctor didn't look convinced. "This would go much quicker if you told me what it was that you were looking for. Chances are whatever you think it is, that's what it'll turn out to be. I could do one test and be done with it or you can sit completely still for an hour and me find out anyway."
Skye took a deep breath and nodded. "Alright Dr. Shannon. Please shut the door."
The doctor smiled softly before quietly closing the door. "Do you want Maddy in here?"
"She knows already. So she can stay." Skye sighed as Dr. Shannon powered down the machine that was running the body scan.
"Alright Skye. Tell me what's going on. What do you think is wrong?" Dr. Shannon set down her clipboard and sat down in one of the chairs beside Maddy.
"Well," Skye began. "I've been having morning sickness and other sicknesses during the day. I also haven't had my period."
Dr. Shannon's eyebrows went up. "So you think you're pregnant?"
Skye shrugged. "I don't. But Maddy seems to think I am."
Dr. Shannon shook her head at Skye. "Skye, have you had sexual intercourse in the last few weeks?"
Skye gulped but nodded. Dr. Shannon gave her a hard stare. "With Josh?"
Skye and Maddy both just about choked on air. "Excuse me?" Skye blurted out.
By now, Maddy had begun laughing. "Josh? No... Way off on that one mom."
"Then who, Skye? I don't believe I know of anyone else who you may have had sexual relations with unless..."
Skye put her hands up. "I'm not telling you who. But I did have sex."
Dr. Shannon stared at Skye for a while. "Skye you know that all the signs point to pregnancy, right?"
"Yeah..." Skye looked down at her hands in her lap. "I just don't want to believe it."
Dr. Shannon began to fiddle with the screen again. "Well what do you say we find out and get this out of the way." Skye just nodded in response.
It was the longest few minutes of her life while the machine scanned her torso for any signs of pregnancy. Suddenly there was a little ding noise and Maddy and Dr. Shannon looked at the results. Skye looked at them, anticipating the answer.
"Skye..." Dr. Shannon began, but Maddy cut in.
"You're not pregnant!" Maddy grinned at her friend.
Skye breathed a sigh of relief, letting her head flop down on the pillow as she digested the feeling. But deep down inside she felt a pang of sadness. While she waited for the results, all of the possibilities had crossed her mind. A little boy with eyes clear as day with ruffled brown hair and a square jaw. A little girl with wavy hair and jade eyes. Lucas and her holding hands, watching their children play. The dream of a family. But she shook her head, ridding the thoughts to be thought about another day. She was much too young now to have children. That was for the future. Considering she had a future with Lucas...
"Well I guess you're done here, Skye." Dr. Shannon let the screen scroll down for Skye to climb off the bed. "But before you go, can I have a private chat with you?"
Skye felt a clench in her stomach. "Sure..."
Maddy gave her a look but Skye waved her away and she left the room. Now it was just Skye and Dr. Shannon. "What did you need?" Skye asked.
"Well Skye, what happened out there in the jungle between you and Lucas? The symptoms you have been showing recently give the impression that you had sex during the time period you were with him."
Skye shook her head at the doctor. "Dr. Shannon, I appreciate what you're trying to do here, but I honestly don't want to talk about whatever happened in the jungle with Lucas. That is between me and him. I just am not ready to talk about it yet. Alright?"
Dr. Shannon gave a knowing nod. "I understand. But when you're ready, I'm here to talk. You know that right?"
Skye nodded before exiting the clinic. Maddy was outside waiting for her. "What'd you an my mom talk about?"
"Just... stuff." Skye murmered. "But that's not important. Let's go wedding shopping!"
The Commander sat at his desk when the door opened and Jim Shannon entered.
"Taylor," Jim began as he approached the Commander. "I have some interesting news you may want to hear."
Taylor's eyebrows shot up. "Does it have to do with Lucas?"
Jim gave his Commanding Officer a grim look. "In fact sir, it does. If involves him and Skye."
Now this got the Commander's full attention.
Ah! Short Chapter, but I wanted to leave it at that. So again this story doesn't have much left to it. I hope that you all will review and I always look forward to the kind words!:D
And to all of those who say mean words, you just add reviews to my story. So yeah... Thanks!
I love all of you! Thanks for all the support!:D I'm just so happy today! I hope I make it into the next part of the audition! If I do, I'll let you all know!:D
PLEASE REVIEW:P
