Together

Chapter 5: Annabeth

I could hear people around me talking, and I felt myself being set down onto a bed. My vision was starting to go blurry, but I could see that my bed was being rolled down the hallway by a couple of doctors toward a room. To my left, I could just barely see Percy, my vision darkening even more. He was walking beside me, shouting at some nurses. We entered the hospital room, and the last thing I saw were some doctors pulling a curtain closed to divide the room, and then I blacked out.

When I finally woke up, I saw a pair of sea green eyes staring down at me in concern. "W-what happened" I croaked.

"You threw up on me then colapsed, so I ran you to some nurses. Once we brought you here, you passed out." Percy answered. "You haven't been out for too long, just 15 minutes or so, but I was worried."

I sat up and kissed his forehead. "I'm okay," I assured him, although I still felt kind of nauseous.

"Good," he replied. "A doctor is gonna come in here soon to figure out why you threw up and blacked out. I'm guessing that it was food poisoning, or maybe you have the stomach flu or something." Percy had some reasonable explanations for my sudden nausea and fainting, but a scary thought popped up in the back of my mind. What if I was-

My thoughts were interrupted when a woman in a nurse's outfit stepped into the room. "Hello Ms.Chase," she smiled. "My name is doctor Roth, and I will be helping you find out what the cause of your black out was. Oh um, sir," she looked at Percy. "I'm going to have to ask you to wait outside please." He looked at me reassuringly, then walked out of the room.

Doctor Roth asked me some questions, then she had me take a pregnancy test. I came back into the room after, and showed her the little positive sign on it. A tear ran down my cheek. After that, Doctor Roth had me do an ultra sound, and came back to me with the results. She smiled at me, then said "Congradulations Annabeth. You're going to be a mother of twins."
