6 Years Too Late

Fifteen

Andi's POV

"Hood." I jump ever so slightly as the nurse calls my name, quickly standing from my chair and following her back into the exam area.

"Nice to meet you, Andromeda, my name is Stacy and I will be doing vitals and asking you some questions today." She smiles as she leads me down the hallway.

"Great." I nod.

"So this is your second pregnancy?"

"Yeah. I have a five year old son."

"Great, and that pregnancy was smooth?"

"Ya. I had no problems with anything, it went as smooth as it could. He came three days after his due date and ya." I shrug.

"Good. Step on the scale for me?" She asks, motioning to the silver machine in the corner, I follow her instructions absentmindedly.

"Perfect, now take a seat here so I can get your blood pressure." She smiles, wrapping the little cuff around my arm as she asks more questions. "Okay, same dad or different from your first child? It isn't a huge deal just some family history needed if it's different."

"Same, and I might actually be able to get some information from him if you need. He knows about the pregnancy this time."

"This time?"

"It's a very long and complicated story that doesn't seem to be getting any easier." I sigh.

"We just care about the medical history of the parents." She smiles sympathetically.

"I can get that for you by my next appointment." I nod.

"That would be great. Alright, so according to what you filled out, you are looking about eight weeks along. And due late November."

"That's what I calculated too." I nod.

"Let's get you into this room where Doctor Dow will meet you shortly." She leads me through into a small exam room.

"Thank you." I smile as she leaves me.
I pull my phone out as I wait. Shooting Calum a text.

aren't talking but I

history work up

OBGYN. For my baby's
safety. I have a
worksheet for you to

me near you right
now. When do you
need it back?

as soon as possible.

fine. And I'm sorry,
Andi... I'm trying to
get in control I
swear.

try harder.

I put my phone away after that, not wanting to deal with him right now.

"Hello, Andromeda." Doctor Dow comes in a few minutes later.

"You can call me Andi." I smile, shaking the hand he holds out.

"Alright, Andi. Stacy mentioned the dad is sort of in the picture?"

"I mean, he doesn't want to be a dad and we aren't together... but he is willing to fill out the medical history sheet for me." I shrug.
