New Beginnings

Chapter 37: Alexa's sick?

Alexa POV

Oh gosh...  Force help me please!

I'm lying in bed, clutching my stomach and groaning. I've got the worst cramps, and if I didn't know any better I'd swear I was going to die. However I don't think that will happen... Yet.

Just as I bellowed again the door to my room opened and in walked my boyfriend. He came and kneeled in front of my bed and looked at me. I could see the concern written on his face, he was worried about me. I tried to offer him a smile, but it was weak and it soon faded into a grimace as I felt my cramps worsen.

"Hey Lexie, still no better huh?"

I shook my head. I had been like this since early this morning and now it was almost lunch time, thankfully I had no duties to perform today and Rendal had gone and told Cora that I wouldn't be able to see her today, or at least that's what I'd asked him to do.

"Did you see Cora?"

"Yes, don't worry, she understands and hopes you feel better soon."

"She's a good kid." I smiled.

"Yes she is." He nodded. "She has a good master after all."

"Aww! Thank you."

"You're welcome." He popped a kiss on my nose. My eyes then widened slightly and I forced myself to sit up with a groan and heaved myself out of bed, stumbling past a confused Rendal. "Where are you going?"

"Refresher." I replied and went into the small room.

After going to the toilet and washing my hands I reemerged. I walked towards my bed only to feel a sharp pain in my stomach. I gasped and doubled over, wrapping my arms around my middle. Rendal rushed over and caught me to stop me from falling over.

"Ok that's it. I'm getting you checked out." He said and with that he helped me to the Halls of Healing where instead of being looked at by a medical droid I got to talk to Doctor Rig Nema. "Thanks for taking the time to see Alexa, Dr."

"Oh it's no problem, I'm happy to help. So what's the problem?"

"Cramps. Horrible, terrible, painful cramps." I replied through gritted teeth.

"Oh I see." The green skinned woman nodded. "Alright I'll given you some medication for that, but is there anything else?"

I frowned, over the past couple of weeks I had begun to notice that I didn't seem exactly like my normal self.

"Well.... I-" Rendal's comlink went off before I could say anymore. My friend shook his head annoyed.

"Brask here, who's this?"

"Rendal, it's Obi Wan." The voice of Rendal's old master came through the device.

"Oh hi master, what can I do for you?"

"I was hoping to see you so we could talk, could you come meet me in meditation garden?"

"Uh...." He looked at me, his eyes silently asking if I was ok with him going of if I wanted him to stay with me. I thought for a moment then nodded, he should go see him. It would look suspicious if he didn't and it could be important.... Not to mention I would like to talk to the Dr alone. "Sure, I'll meet you there in a few minutes."

"Good, I'll be waiting." He then ended the conversation.

"Ok. Well.... I'll be off then. I'll come check on you later." He flashed me a smile and nodded to Doctor Nema before getting up and going to meet with Obi Wan.
