“There’s only one?” Simon sounded almost disappointed.
“Simon, you’re being an ass,” Jennifer scolded as if Andy wasn’t lying on the examining table, with only a sheet strategically placed, with ice cold gel spread over his belly and a bit lower. The ultrasound wand pressing into him wasn’t too uncomfortable if you didn’t mind someone testing to see if you were done yet and forgetting that they’d left the probe stuck in place even if it didn’t break skin.
“Simon,” Andy tried reasonably and quite frankly, though seeing a small curled up shape in the television monitor was interesting if surreal, he wanted back into this conversation. He coughed. “Let’s try one for now and see how it goes on and we can always try for another later. It’s not as if we’ve got a choice in the matter. The little guy is there all alone and seems healthy. He is healthy, isn’t he?!”
“Perfectly,” Jennifer answered still staring menacingly at Simon.
“I don’t want anything to happen to Andy. It’s not like males are meant to get pregnant.”
“That is not what you were telling me when we did the pregnancy test thingy, Simon. And yes, I know I’m not a sea horse but Jennifer says everything is good.”
Jennifer turned and thankfully to Andy’s mind removed the wand, wiping off the gel with a tissue. “First time fathers can be asses. Don’t pay him any mind. One is just right, the spell worked just fine, and you seem to be handling the pregnancy wonderfully. There is no reason to fear. Still, you’re human. So we’ll monitor you closely. Appointments every couple weeks, with blood tests. Nothing stressful unless you’re afraid of needles but then you’ve a snake familiar for a mate so I imagine that you’re used to ‘unnatural ‘ things being inserted quite often.” She was smirking as she said that last bit and Andy felt his lips drawing up into a smile that displayed teeth. Oh for sharp pointy fangs. It appeared that doctors, even female ones could be obnoxious asses too.
With a grin Jennifer patted his tummy, “There really isn’t any danger to you or the sprog, not even if the two of you want to continue with that,” she coughed, “insertion business. The little guy is well protected. He’s got a shell which he’ll slough out of before birthing. That’ll make things much easier for the both of you ... and maybe even Simon.”
