Check Up Part One
Carlisle smiled at my shocked expression. "Well you're still Bella I can see." he said as he finished setting me back on my feet. "Oh you're wearing the pajamas Alice bought you." then he said in a stage whisper. "I tried to stop her."
"Thanks." I mumbled as I found Edward sitting at the kitchen table. He was similing sheepishly at me. I stomped over to him. I sat down next to him and whispered quietly, "I told you not to call him."
Carlisle laughed from across the room. He leaned against the banister of the stairs. I noticed he was holding his doctors bags and now had a stethoscope around his neck. I grimaced.
"Bella don't be difficult." Edward said as he played with my fingers. He brought my hand up to his lips and kissed everyone of my fingers. Then kissed my wrist. The whole time he unleashed the force of his eyes on me. Looking up at me thru his long eyelashes, as he gently moved my hand as he desired, not that I was fighting him. I couldn't take my eyes off his. It was too much to bear.
"Fine." I snapped at him. I tuned to Carlisle still by the stairs, "Get it over with." He smiled. I looked back at Edward. He patted my hand reassuringly.
"Ok Bella," Carlisle said. I turned my head back towards the stairs.
"Ah!" he was sitting in the chair next to me and had a notepad and various tools laying on the table. He smiled and held back a laugh.
"Sorry about that." he said. I heard a low chuckle ecscape from Edward. I ignored him. "So I need you to tell me your symptoms." Carlisle continued as he pulled out a pen and wrote my full name on the top of the pad.
"Um." I looked back to Edward. "I guess I was nausious and a little dizzy." Edward sighed.
"She was puking her guts out for about three hours." he said looking to me then to Carlisle ignoring my glare.
"But I feel fine now." I said quickly. Carlisle looked to Edward and I thought I saw Edward roll his eyes. Carlisle reached in his bag and pulled out a popsicle stick and a flashlight.
"I need you to open your mouth wide for me Bella." he said as he stood over me.
"Carlisle honestly I'm fi-" I cut off short because hands grabbed my forehead and my chin. The back of my head was against Edward's chest and my mouth was now open. Carlisle was standing in front of me staring at Edward shocked.
"Come on knock it off you know she's not going to cooperate. Alice saw it already." Edward responded in answer to Carlisle's thoughts. I reached up uselessly and tried to pull Edward's firm but gentle hand off of me. "Do it already or I will." Edward warned Carlisle. My hands froze on his arm. He couldn't be serious. Carlisle looked at me then back to Edward. He sighed in defeat. Carlisle grabbed the popsicle stick and the flashlight. He looked back at me with sorrowful eyes.
"Sorry." he whispered as he leaned over me. Then his hands dissappeared and there was a tickling in the back of my throat. Then his hands reappeared again. Empty this time, the tools laying on the table. Edward tilted my head back and kissed my forehead.
"See that wasn't so hard." He released me from his iron grip. I snapped my head away from him.
"Everything's fine there." Carlisle said as he pulled out a reflex hammer. Edward tried to scoop me up. I shoved his arms away and walked to the counter. I hopped up and cooperated this time. I watched as each of my knees jumped from in response to Carlisle's tapping.
"Good, good." he mumbled quietly to himself and jotted down another note. Edward was leaning against the counter behind Carlisle half smiling. I turned my gaze away from him. "You can hope down now Bella." Carlisle said as he held out his hand. Edward was doing the same on the other side of me. I put my hand in Carlisle's and hopped down from the counter.
