—Calum's already coming. There are more stuff of Wyatt around the house? I don't want to leave anything

—No, everything's on the bag. Why don't you ask Calum to stay for a little bit?

—No mum, Calum must be tired, he's been working all day -I pause- besides, knowing him, we might go to a hospital after leaving your house because I'm still feeling sick

—She's right, Annie -my dad interrupts- say hi to Calum from us and thank you for coming, daughter. I really missed you both -he smiled at me-

—No problem, dad -I hug him-

—Promise me you'll come more often

—I don't have to come always, remember that you can come to my house too

—Right, right -my dad says- we'll visit you next time

—We'll let you know, honey

My phone rings and I check it, it was Cal.

"I'm outside"

—Calum's here, I'm better get going -I grab Wyatt from my mom's arms after grabbing the diaper bag-

They both hugged and kissed me, so they did to Wyatt, they opened the door and I went to Calum's car, putting my son in his carseat and the diaper bag beside him, then I went to the passenger seat and kissed Calum hello

—How are you feeling? You look awful -Calum asks as he starts driving, I laugh-

—Hey, thanks, you look handsome too -He laughs too as soon as he realizes the reason why I was laughing before- I'm still feeling sick

—I didn't meant that, silly. You always look gorgeous, it's just that right now... You look gorgeously awful -I laugh so much at his comment that my head ends up aching- you want us to go to the hospital?

—If you're not tired...

—I am tired, but your health is way more important to me

—Let's go, then

We arrived to the hospital faster than expected because we were really close to it. Calum was carrying Wyatt while he was asking some information on available doctors, seeing him so concerned made him look so cute. He motioned me to go with him so I did

—We have to look for the room 67 -we were waking as we glanced at the doors' numbers-

—Here -I say, he stops and comes back to me since he was a little bit further away-

I knock on the door and hear a voice saying "come in"

—Hi -I say as I enter-

—What do we have here? A cute family -the doctor says, Calum smiles-

—Nice to meet you, doctor -Calum handshakes the doctor-

—My pleasure. And who's this little monkey we've got here? You two are identical -he turns to see Calum-

—That's what I've been told -Calum and I laugh-

—So, who am I checking? -he asks looking at us, Calum and I were already sitting in front of his desk-

—Me -I speak up-

—Good, here's a form that you gotta fill before the examination

I nod and grab the pen, starting to read the paper. Calum and the doctor kept on talking about somethings I didn't really listened

—Here it is -I hand it to him-

—Good... Madeleine -he says reading the paper- tell me what you've been feeling, how long you've been feeling that way and if you've had any medicine
