Chapter 2

Chapter 2 – Just checking the time

Twilight sits on the patient bed as you wait for the doctor to come back with the results of her test. You yawn a little as you stand next to her, as Pinkies cupcakes are still somehow affecting you.

Twilight still sits with tired eyes and with a bit of a nervous stare to the door as she twiddles her hooves in her lap, as she looks to the door she talks to you, "I'm telling you i'm fine, it's normal pain."

You nod your head as you look to the opening door.

Doctor Stable walks in holding a clipboard to his face, “okay, so lets talk about those triplets.”

You and Twilight both give a loud yell as he finishes his sentence, 'WHAT!?”

You feel a little light headed as you wait for the doctors respond you think, no...no...no I haven't even fully grasped the fact i'm a dad yet!

Stable looks up from the paper with a bit of a shock, “Oh my, i'm sorry to scare you thats the room next to this.” He gives a laugh.

You and Twilight both give a nervous laugh of relief, but you stare at the doctor screaming in your head, dude, come on!

Twilight composes herself as she clears her throat and talks in a low voice as she asks, "Well how am I?”

The doctor loses his smile as he flips the page, “well Twilight...I am a little confused at the results this time.”

You both stare at the carmel pony as he stalls to collect his thoughts, “As everypony can see you do not look pregnant.” He pauses as he looks over the pages again, “But yet your test results show you are...”

Twilight nods her head anxiously waiting for him to get to the point.

"...But this test says that you are much further along then you say you could be.”

Twilight's eyes shrink as she listens, "well th-that can't be, I could only be at most a few weeks in?"

Stable looks back shifting his gaze between the two of you, “This test says you have to be at least four or five months pregnant.”

You stare at him with a completely dumbfounded look, four or five months? You look back to Twilight who seems just as confused as you.

Stable takes advantage of the silence as he talks, “That’s why I didn't say anything yesterday I thought you would know by now that you we-..."

Twilight stares back to the doctor with an annoyed face as interrupt him, “How can you say I am five or four months pregnant !?”

You listen closely at conversion as you again start to feel a little light headed.

Stable shift a little bit as he look around the room for an answer, “Well...did you hav-...”

Twilight calls out in a raised voice, “NO! I have only been with him." She points her hoof at you.

Stable gives you a quick look as you shift a little uneasy at the conversation.

Twilight now rants as she talks, “You know, I didn't even know I was “pregnant” until you told me yesterday So how do I know for su...-” She holds her stomach in a pained grip as she stops her rant.

Stable looks over her as he talks, “Well, unicorn foal growth can be altered by a large use of magic while in the early stages of forming. It's possible that the foal's growth could have been spiked when you used that unknow form of magic that brought you in yesterday.”

You swallow hard at his comment as you try to hold back a few thoughts.

Twilight look down to the floor as the doctor stops talking.

You chime in now as he pauses, “I-is the foal alright?”

He looks down to the paper, “Yes, the foal looks to be a normal healthy foal, still too early to tell if it's colt or filly.”

He looks back to Twilight as he talks, “Now if the foal's rate was increased you should expect your hormones to be very high and your normal mood swings to be very different for the next few days. also you might start to show in the next few weeks.”

She again gives a loud exclamation to his comment, "A few WEEKS? B-but I have only know for a day?" Her voice is a little whinny as she talks.

You ignore her whiny as you breath a slight sigh of relief at the notion of the foal not being harmed by human magic.

Stable gives a happy laugh at Twilight's snap, "Thats a good sign."

Twilight again puts her head to the ground.

You begin to talk as she still looks to the ground, "Is there anything we can do to help that?"

His face changes as he sternly starts to talk, “well she needs to curb her magic use, for a few weeks." He shifts back to her as he talks, “if it's a unicorn foal the uses of powerful magic could harm or again increase its growth rate.”

Twilight nods her head as she still focus on the ground.

He looks to you as he talks, “Just make sure she doesn't do anything dangerous and that she gets plenty of rest.”

You look over Twilight's hanging head as talk, "I will."

He nods his head and turns out of the room closes the door behind himself.

You stare at her for a in moment of silence before talking in a low voice, “Twilight?”

She holds her head to the ground still, “Nothings simple is it?” her voice is cracky as she talks.

You chuckle a little bit as you talk, “No, it never is.”

Twilight gives a little sniffle as she talks, "how do I tell Celestia I can't use magic for a few weeks?"

You think about her comment with a laugh, Celasia? What about her parents? Her dad already hates me..."I think your parents would be harder to tell."

She gives a loud sigh as she brings her head up to you, “H-how are you taking this so well?” Her eyes are a bit watery as you can tell she is trying to not cry.

You place your hoof on hers as you talk, “Because Twilight...I have been worried about you for far too long...and I have been beating myself up believe that I am hurting you.” You pause for a moment to collect your voice, “But this...this is so much better than anything I could have dreamt of.” You laugh as you talk, “Now please don't cry, we still have plenty of time to cry about this.”

Her voice starts to fade a little as she talks, "How do I tell my parents?"

You give her a sweet smile as hold her hoof a little bit tighter, "We."

She wraps her hooves around you as she gives a light sob.

She to compose herself as she talks, “I'm going to get fat.”

You both give a light laugh to the comment. As you hold the hug to reassure her. as you do this you silently think, and i'm probably going to freak out when this sinks in. You give a little smile to your thought as you rub her back with your hoof.
