"Don't you worry. That is why I am here."
At that precise moment, the door to my room opened up again. We had all been too busy talking and too focused on what was going on that we didn't notice the visitor that was coming up the stairs.
Well, Reece might have noticed him since he was not at all surprised by the sudden words or the interruption to the conversation. He just seemed to be happy that this person had arrived. And frankly, so was I.
"Griffin?" I called out to him. I was happy to see yet another person that I cared so much about. He was such a good friend of mine and Reece's. He had been there with us ever since Reece and I had first gotten together. He was always there whenever I needed something to help me heal or to help with the babies. He was the best doctor in the entire world. Not to mention, that he was one of Reece's oldest friends.
"Hello Trinity. I am so happy to see that you're awake." He was already walking toward the bed that I was sitting on with Reece and the kids. "I wanted to come and check on you earlier this week, but I was told that the room was closed off with a magical barrier. I can tell you with one hundred percent honesty that I was extremely worried about you and Reece. And the others as well, of course. When Noah, who was trapped in the room before, called to let me know that you were awake and couldn't move at all, I rushed over here as quickly as I could. I am going to get you moving again soon, Trinity. I promise you."
"I know, Griffin. I know." He seemed to be worried and upset at the same time. Why do I get the feeling that something very unpleasant happened for him while I was away?
"Uncle Griffin, are you going to make my mommy better? Are you going to make it so that she can hug me again?" Talia was looking up at Griffin with pleading eyes as he got closer to us.
"Yes, Tally, I am going to help your mommy. Your mommy is my friend too, I love her and want to see her get better."
"I want her to get better too. Also, Uncle Griffin, I want to play with Julia. I guess Vivian and Dominic can come too. But I really want to play with Julia."
"I know that Julia would love that too, Talia. And you know that her birthday is coming up soon. She is almost the same age as you, now. Isn't that fun?" Griffin was smiling at Talia as he talked about his third child.
"Yay. I can't wait. But fix my mommy first. I want a hug more than I want to play." Talia was still focused on me. That was so sweet.
"Of course. I will look after your mommy right now. But I need all of you to leave so that I can do my job."
"Even my daddy?" Talia put her hands on her hips and looked at him with a look that clearly said, 'that is so not going to happen'. She really was a smart little girl.
"Well, your daddy can stay. I have a feeling that he won't want to leave even if I told him to." Griffin chuckled at her.
"Yeah, Daddy would not leave my mommy at all. He loves her too much. He loves us too, but my daddy is a big baby when it comes to my mommy."
"Talia!" Reece gasped and all I could do was laugh. "Who taught you that?"
"No one, Daddy. I just know it." That made me laugh even more, not to mention everyone, except for Reece.
"Alright, you're going to get it later, little girl. I am going to tickle you until you scream. Just you wait."
"Ah! No Daddy, don't tickle me." Talia was playing along with Reece but it was very clearly an act and it just made the laughter worse.
"OK, Talia, can you and the others leave so I can check on your mommy?"
"Uh huh. I will make them leave." She stood up, faced everyone in the room, pointed toward the door and barked in a stern voice. "Out! Uncle Griffin needs to fix my mommy."
"Yes, Ma'am." Mom saluted her and then picked her up off of the bed. "How about we go and make something easy for your mommy to eat. I am sure she is hungry, and Daddy will need to feed her." At the mention of food, my stomach growled loudly and there was another round of laughter as the others left the room.
Now it was just me, Reece and Griffin in the room. That was when I realized that the little dragon left the room with Talia. It really did want to be with her, didn't it. I didn't need to focus on that though. I needed to focus on Griffin and getting better.
"How are you feeling, Trinity?" he asked me as he set down his bag and sat in a chair close to the bed.
"I am fine, for the most part. It's just that I can't move. Nothing hurts or anything like that. I was a little shocked to see my massive belly, but I am the only one that is surprised about that. I'm just really annoyed that I can't move my body."
"Well, I am glad that none of it hurts. And I'm happy to see that you have an appetite." He laughed about the stomach growling again. "So, what I am going to do now is give you, and the babies, a good exam. I am going to check to see what is causing your paralysis and, hopefully, we can get you moving sometime soon."
"Thank you, Griffin." I nodded and smiled.
"Thanks, man. And thank you for rushing over here so quickly."
"Hey, no need to thank me, Reece. My patient woke up after almost three months, of course I am running over here as fast as I could. Even Lana told me to haul ass." He laughed as he reached for some of the items in the room around and for others in his bag. "Now, Reece, can you lay Trinity back down in the bed. The bed doesn't have to be all the way back, but I do need it back further than it is now."
"Sure thing, Griffin." Reece grabbed the remote, hit another button and made it auto adjust before he got to his feet with me still in his arms. Once the bed was done moving, he laid me on back down.
I didn't like being this helpless. I didn't like not being able to help with moving my body. And I didn't like only looking at the ceiling and the small amount of stuff that I could see around me. It robbed me of my freedom, and I didn't like it. I wanted Griffin to hurry up and fix me, like Talia said before.
Griffin started by taking out the feeding tube that I had while I was asleep as well as taking out the IVs from my arms. Then he started to check my body over to see if there were any abnormalities. He checked my legs and my abdomen, my neck and back, even my hands and feet. It was quite the thorough exam, and I was surprised that Reece didn't object. Then again, he had probably gotten used to Griffin doing this over the time that I was asleep. He was no longer upset about it or something.
After my body was examined, Griffin drew some blood and set it aside. He was going to take it to be checked sometime later. Seeing that reminded me of something that Griffin and I had discussed a while back. He wanted to do research on building a mobile lab unit so he could run his own samples when out in the field like this. Maybe it was time to encourage him to do just that.
After he had taken some blood, he pulled the ultrasound machine over to the bed. He was going to check on the babies now. I was eager to see them in baby form. I knew what they were going to look like when they were older though. That was a plus. Still, seeing them as babies was something else entirely.
That blue gel was just as cold here at my house as it was everywhere else. And that was saying something for someone who could literally turn to ice and the cold outside never affected them. I think it was because it touched me directly. That, or it was just a magical torture device that the doctors use to torture us women who are pregnant. I am not sure which one it is right now.
I waited with bated breath with Reece holding onto my hand. I wanted to see them, I wanted this to happen. But then I realized that I couldn't turn my head enough to see the screen.
"Reece."
"Yes, my love." He spoke sweetly as he responded to me.
"I can't see the screen. I can't turn my head enough." I felt even worse now. I had completely forgotten that I wasn't going to be able to see the screen without his help.
"No problem, Little Bunny. I will take care of that."
Reece let go of my hand and turned my head gently so that I could see the screen. This was it. I was going to be able to see the boys now.. I was going to see what the little babies in my belly currently looked like.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
