A.N. I do not own Harry Potter
Marcus was back the next morning and he heard Chloe in a discussion with another woman. "Holly, honestly,I can get through the rest of my clinicals without another episode. There is no need to cut my hours down."
Holly was not having any of it "Chloe, preeclampsia is a pregnancy complication. You are at especially high risk for it since you are having twins. It could kill you and both of your babies if you are not careful. You will still be done with time to spare. Even if you do not finish your hours on time before the babies come, you can still finish them when you get back from maternity leave. The licensing exam happens four times a year."
Chloe lost that battle and Marcus came in and saw her in bed with a sour looking expression on her face "What?"
"I just had my nutrient potions, the stuff is disgusting. Well, three more months of them and I am done."
"So, what has the healer said about going home?"
"Have not seen her yet and speak of the devil. So Healer Backstrom, how much longer am I imprisoned here?"
She began to perform an examination and decided "I am discharging you now. I want you back in my office in a week for a follow up. If you have another episode like this, then come back here. I am increasing the dose on your nutrient potions and I will have you on a blood pressure reducing potion. Do not worry, expectant mothers have been taking them for years and there has never been any problems."
"Thank you again. Marcus, step out while I get changed."
He did what he was told and there was Chloe in that nauseating shirt again. He swore she was doing it to drive him mad. However, mad did not cut it when he saw the inside of her flat. It was floor to ceiling in red and gold and he would even be even more nauseated when he saw the nursery.
The first one to greet them was Jax. "Jax, down!" Jax then began growling at Marcus. "Jax, we don't growl at people." He sat down and tilted his head to the side.
"What's his problem? I didn't do anything."
"I got him from an animal shelter four months ago and they said he was abused by men. See the tufts of hair missing on his back. That is from a cattle prod. It's a device that shoots out electricity to control cattle."
"Muggles"
Well, he was going to have to make friends with Jax. That was when he notice her turn her hand up to her face "I must not tell lies." He knew what it was from, Dolores Umbridge. His best mate Adrian had a date with a blood quill on a few occasions.
He left her in her living room with the promise to check up on her latter. Chloe fell asleep again on the couch but this time Jax had his head on her stomach.
Maybe for right now living across the street will be a good thing for now. Enjoy the peace now because the next three months were about to become even crazier and the babies are not even here yet.
