The next morning Sky decided that she would go to Chris for help, sure woman's health wasn't exactly his field of expertise, it's not like he was a trained gynaecologist but surely he could be of some help. After all he had been working as a doctor through the whole end of the world thing, so surely he had needed to expand his horizons before so to speak.
"Do you want me to go with you Darlin'?" Negan asked.
"That depends… are you going to punch Chris in the face if he has to look at my vagina?" she laughed.
"Ahhh jury's out on that" he chuckled. "If you want me there, then I'll be there for you sweetheart. I promise I will refrain from beating the doctor".
"Ok then, I want you there with me. I'm nervous" she admitted.
"Nothing to be nervous about, everything is gonna be fine" he tried to reassure her. "I'll swing by the infirmary this morning, I got a few things to take care of with the boys for the supply run today" he said as he gave her a kiss. "See you in a bit".
Sky made a point of heading to breakfast early, hoping to catch Chris and give him a bit of a heads up about wanting to see him privately. Luckily she found him before the interns turned up, and he was more than happy to help her out. When the other two arrived the team chatted away while they ate their breakfast, finishing up just in time to unlock the infirmary for the day.
It was around mid-morning when Negan strolled in and Chris took the two of them through into the back room, closing the door for some privacy. Sky sat on the bed with Negan next to her, holding his hand for comfort and support.
"Ok, so tell me what's going on Sky, then we can work out how I can help" Chris said.
"Well, my cycle isn't normal… I'm often late for no reason, and then sometimes I'm bang on to the day, other times I might skip it completely" she told him, feeling a little uncomfortable talking about cycles with a couple of men.
"Before the world changed, was everything normal?"
"No it was the same then too"
"Ok, well that's probably a good sign. It would suggest it's an underlying issue with your hormones"
"Oh there aint nothing wrong with her hormones" Negan chuckled, and Sky slapped his hand playfully making Chris laugh. He liked how at ease they were with each other, Sky needed that in her life.
"Is there any chance there could be… damage? You know from being assaulted?" she asked worriedly.
"It is possible, for peace of mind I can check you over… I've had to do it before so I kinda know what to look for. We also have an ultrasound machine so I can check for any abnormalities with that too" Chris explained.
"I just need to know that I'm not… broken" Sky said as she felt Negan squeeze her hand gently.
"Ok well I'll give you a minute to take your pants off and get settled on the bed" Chris said as he left the room in search of the equipment he needed.
Sky looked at Negan with a worried and scared expression. She was terrified at the thought of any man that wasn't him looking at her body. Sensing her fear he gave her a kiss on the forehead. "You'll be ok Darlin', I'm gonna be right here with you" he reassured her as he helped her out of her pants and underwear and she lay down on the bed with a sheet covering her lower half.
A quiet knock came at the door and Negan called out to say that they were good. Getting set up at the foot of the bed Chris explained what he was going to do and that it would be a little invasive.
"You ready?" Chris asked.
"As I'll ever be" Sky said as she held Negan's hand tight, focussing on looking up at him as he ran a gentle hand through her hair.
