“Yeah... my voice was mumbled as his thumb gently rubbed over the mess that was permanently on my arm.
And do you have full movement in your wrists? | hadn't been asked that before. Thinking about it, it did feel like
my skin was pulling everyt| pulled my hand back or leaned on it. But that was just due to how tight the skin
had gone, and it was a known fact there was snerve and muscle damage.
“I'm not here about my old injuries.” | snatched my hand away quickly causing the doctors face to drop
suddenly. | didn’t need to be reminded of just how fucked up my body actually was. “What | need is a...” My
voice got caught in my throat as | tried to say what | needed. Why was it so difficult to vocalize? 1 had managed
to tell Lewis just fine. “Ok... | need a pregnancy test.” | blurted it out without even looking at the doctors face. “I
just need to be sure!”
| felt a small squeeze on my elbow and turned my head to Lewis who was now moving his thumb in slight circles
on my skin. For sreason though, the sensation made a faint pleasurable tingle shoot down my arm, and
madefrown at his hand. It was the sfeeling | felt with Josh, except it was much less prominent, | could

from him quickly.
“I'm Sorry... | just feel like | should be doing more.” | shook my head and sighed. He was doing more than
enough, | just couldn't understand what I felt when he touched me.
“Just being here is enough.” | quipped turning back to the doctor who was looking between the two of us with a
frown.
“Ill go and get you a test that we can do, but | can’t hear a heartbeat or any movements yet.” He then
continued to look betweenand Lewis, before holding the betas gaze, curiosity clouding his every expression.
“I'm sorry, but | have to ask... did you leave the kings service because you two...” He trailed off swallowing hard
at his assumption. How could he even think that? Why does everyone just asswe slept together?
“NO!..” Lewis's outburst triggereda little bit earlier in all honesty. | mean of course the notion was absurd,
but he didn’t have to act so repulsed. “No, | left because I no longer agreed with Josh's views. Dylan had nothing
to do with
it”
“Not that it is any of your business anyway.” Was | being harshly blunt with him? Probably, but the doctor really
should learn to mind his own.
“My apologies, your grace. | will go and get a test for you.” With that he bowed low and walked away to some
medical cabinets on the other side of the tent.
“Im sorry Lewis...” | felt an extrsense of guilt around him in honesty. | mean, thinking about it, that can’t be

always going to speculate. That's hardly your doing.” Still, it must look a bit odd seeingand him being so
close. | suppose if | was viewing things from the outside then I'd make certain assumptions too.
“True, but | can’t exactly be helping the situation.” He just shook his head, clearly he wasn’t fazed at all by my
presence or our friendship.
“Here you go...” The doctor quickly walked up to us with a pregnancy test in a rectangular box. “The instructions

stare at it.
God | was nervous as | walked to the RV alone. | insisted Lewis stay in the main tent while
| peed on the stick. Once I'd finished on the toilet, | put the cap hack on and placed it on the bed in the main
area of the RV. Two minutes, the doctor said two minutes.
And so | waited, and waited and waited.
After at least 10 minutes | sighed and forced myself to look at the results, my hand clenched around the plastic
stick slightly, as my mind began to process what had actually happened.
