Chapter 2: Artificial Insemination
"Again, somebody tell me why I have to do this!" I muttered sarcastically to everyone in the room.
Rosalie, Alice, and Tanya were in the Doctor's Clinic with me as I laid on the table with my legs spread apart. A white sheet was replaced with my regular clothing and my feet were bare, laying on the cold metal with the strange designs engraved in it.
Tanya answered me before the other two could, "Because, Bella, I'm infertile, and it can't be fixed! Me and Eddie want a child, and if Alice were to carry it, then that would practically be incest, and that is, like, nasty. And Rosalie can't carry the kid because she's already pregnant."
I hated her even more when she talked to me as if I were a child. The question wasn't meant to be answered. But then again, it wasn't all her fault that she was so brainless. It was the mens' fault. I bet, that all the men she has slept with made her think that she was intelligent for their own personal gain. That's probably a lot of men, and a lot of false intelligence going into her already gigantic head.
I sighed and replied, "Tanya, that was a sarcastic question. It wasn't meant to be answered. But okay, I understand the fact that you're infertile. You can stop saying it now. And I know why I have to be the one to do the Artificial Insemination. That's why I'm here!"
She just pursed her lips and rolled her gray eyes at me while flipping her strawberry blond hair behind herself. Rosalie and Alice snickered from the other side of me as I began to get even more ticked off at Tanya.
While waiting for Dr. Clearwater to return, I let my mind wander a bit.
I began to think about what Edward was doing in the other room. The doctor had to get semen from him. So that meant...that he...was...well, masturbating, right in the room across the hall.
The images that ran through my mind the next couple of seconds were both stimulating and hurtful. I mean, yeah, Edward was stroking himself in the other room, but he was thinking about Tanya while doing so.
I was broken out of my train of thoughts when the door opened and closed.
I looked up to see a woman—who I assumed was my doctor—looking like she was in her late thirties or so. She had a small, clear container in her hand with a white liquid inside of it, along with a clipboard.
It was Edward's Semen.
I gulped quite loudly and looked back up into her eyes, slightly frightened.
She spoke with a bright smile on her face, "Hello, I'm Dr. Clearwater, but call me Sue," she looked down at her board, "I have your name down as Isabella Swan. Is this correct?"
"Yes, it is. But call me Bella," I responded with a flushed face.
She nodded and wrote something down on her board; she then looked back up at me, "Okay, so......You are here for the Artificial Insemination, and your method is going to be.....Intracervical insemination, right? And if so, then everything has been tested. Everything is clean and efficient, as we all like it."
I dipped my head and questioned her, "Can you go through what it's going to be like, and if it is going to hurt?"
"Oh, of course. Intracervical insemination or ICI is the most effortless possible way to go. There are other options but sometimes aren't as effective depending on the patient. What ICI is," she walked over to the counter, pulled open a drawer, and took out a tube in which she inserted the semen into, "is we insert this into your vagina. The semen is injected into your Cervix with this needle-less syringe. And that is it. After that, all you have to do is either lay down for a while to prevent seepage and to make sure that the pregnancy is going as planned or have a conception device inserted into your vagina to make sure it doesn't leak or something such as that And, this procedure is absolutely painless. That is, if you're not a virgin. Are you?"
"Am I what?"
Everyone in the room laughed lightly but Sue answered, "Are you a virgin?"
I blushed even more and shook my head timidly.
"Okay, well, if you would just sign here," she handed me the clipboard and a pen, "then everybody besides yourself can exit the room, and we can move on with it."
I signed the paper and said my byes to Alice, Rosalie, and Tanya as they shuffled—or waddled awkwardly for Rosalie—out of the room.
Sue came closer to me with the syringe in her hand and a smile on her face that, at first, I thought was a sadistic smirk. Like one of those nightmares you have when someone is going to operate on you without any painkillers or with you being awake.
But I convinced myself that she was doing the right thing. That I was doing to right thing. And it did kind of feel like it was the right thing to do. I was giving a couple the child that they always wanted. I just happen to be in love with the man in this couple.
I watched as Sue got closer and closer with the syringe, and when she was finally seated in front of me on a stool, she spread my legs further apart. My face was scarlet red by now.
She spoke to me before raising the tool to my opening, "Bella, just close your eyes and try to relax. This'll be cold, but you'll get used to it at first."
I closed my eyes slowly and immediately envisioned those bright, emerald eyes that I loved so much.
I focused on the green eyes that belonged to Edward as I felt my the probe enter my lips and slide into my vagina.
Sue was right; the syringe was freezing, but I did get used to it over the five minutes that it was inserted into me.
I felt it slide out of me and I opened my eyes when she said that I could.
"We're done here, so far. Now, I just want you to lay down all the way and wait thirty minutes or so, and then I'll come back in here with a regular pregnancy test that I will give to you for later use."
I nodded and she opened the door, and stepped out of the room, closing the door behind her.
I was surprised to see Edward walk in after about thirty minutes of waiting in this room.
He looked a bit shaken up from what I could tell. He was wiping his sweaty hands on his jeans, his hair was more chaotic than it usually was, and his usually bright eyes had a pain in them that I've never seen before.
He wouldn't even look at me for some reason, so I asked, "What's wrong?"
His eyes darted to mine, but instantly looked away. He responded, "N-nothing. Nothing is-is wrong. Just...uh...Thanks for doing this, Bella."
I didn't believe him but I accepted his answer anyway.
I asked for him to turn around or remove himself from the room so that I could change. I thought that he would just leave the room but instead, he stayed and just turned around.
I slide myself off of the table, slipped out of the white gown, and grabbing my underwear. Slipping on my underwear, I grabbed my bra and put that on as well. Then while putting on my jeans, I messed up and tripped over something on the floor.
While thinking I was going to hit the ground, I was shocked when I didn't, but instead two muscular arms wrapped around my waist.
I looked up into Edward's dark, green eyes and blushed even deeper. Noticing that I didn't have a shirt on yet, I muttered a, "Thanks."
I tore myself out of his arms and proceeded to put on my clothing. Soon, I heard a sigh, and then the door opening and closing once again.
I leaned against the wall and sucked in a deep breath, trying to keep the tears in and my heart from falling apart.
Who else thinks the name of this chapter is hilarious?
Please,
Review!!
