Chapter 15:
Tris POV
Tobias stands over the hospital bed.
"The baby is fine."
I flush of relief swarms my body. I must have passed out through all the chaos of everything.
"How are you doing?" It's Caleb.
"I'm fine. I guess this baby thing is wearing on me."
"It tends to do that to most women." Tobias laughs. Caleb has on a bittersweet smile. I'm pregnant…but alive. Can't have everything, Caleb. A nurse with long light brown hair walks in.
"You are doing fine, Tris, so is the baby. We scheduled you with an appointment at the Women's Center. It's tonight at four o'clock."
"She will be there." Tobias chips in.
"You are free to go. Good luck, Mr. and Mrs. Eaton."
Tobias and I smile at each other.
Right at 4:00pm we walk into the doctors office. I was here with Christina just a few days ago.
"Tris Eaton" Tobias says to the lady behind the desk.
"Sure thing. Have a seat and we will get you in just a moment. I assume you are the husband?"
"Yes." I chirp in.
"He can come back with you or wait out here. Your choice."
We nod then sit down. Silence for a few seconds, I clutch his arm.
"Can I come?"
"Of course. You are the Dad, aren't you?"
"I hope so!" He giggles.
We wait for a few moments then a different lady comes out of a door.
"Tris Eaton!" A lady calls beckoning toward the door. We stand up and follow her into a small room. It has a white cushioned chair with silver appliances attached to it. I sit on the chair, and Tobias sits next to me in a small visitor chair. I look over at all the monitors and computers,
"The doctor will be with you in just a moment."
I nod.
"This is crazy. Reality it starting to sink in." Tobias whispers as his eyes explore the room.
"A year ago, I never thought I would be here with you." It's crazy it's been that long since we met.
"I love you." I whisper.
"I love you too." He whispers back.
Then the doctor walks in. She has pail skin and blond shoulder length hair. Pretty.
"I'm Dr. Blue." She shakes my hand then Tobias.
"Today we are going to find out how old the fetus is, and the approximate due date." She smiles.
We nod. She pushes a button on the chair then the chair begins to go flat. Now I lay on my back, facing the ceiling.
"I'm going to ask you to pull up your shirt and unbutton your jeans."
I do so. It feels weird having two people stare at my bare belly. Better get used to it I suppose.
"This might me a bit chilly." She rubs cold jelly all over my lower stomach. Tobias grabs my hand then smiles down at me. She takes part of the machine and rubs it over my belly then an image appears on the screen, Dr. Blue and Tobias study it closely, but I watch Tobias. His eyes search every inch of the screen.
"Right here." Dr. Blue points to a small white dot on the screen.
A tear falls from my face. That's my baby…our baby. I look over at Tobias who is smiling ear to ear. He looks down at me.
"Our baby."
Dr. Blue feels around my belly then asks me a couple of questions.
"Everything looks good. The baby looks like it is around nine and a half weeks old. You'll see a small baby bump soon. The due date is March 24th. Here are the vitamins you need to take daily. Good luck." Tobias grabs the vitamins then the Dr. Blue leaves the room.
"That was amazing." Tobias smiles.
"Yes, it was." Tobias helps me off the chair and we walk home, hand in hand.
