Soarin's family
Chapter 6: Chapter 6: A little doctors visit
Previous Chapter Next ChapterThe evening air was cold and crisp. Soarin zoomed through the sky at a much quicker pace than he normally did when flying home. He paid no attention to the storm clouds gathering above his head. There was only one thing on the baby blue stallions mind, get Dash to the doctors as fast as possible. He already set something up with the Cloudsdale hospital, even though it was last minute, they usually always had openings for Wonder Bolts even if it had nothing to do with practice. Spit Fire sent them home early due to a meeting with the princesses. Soarin was not going to complain at all. Rapid Fire’s words from this morning had been running through his head all day, “get her to the doctors ASAP.” of course Soarin was worried.
As his cloud home came into view a wave of relief washed over him for a split second. Soarin was still smart enough to remember to slow down before landing on his porch. He quickly pushed the door open and stepped inside. Once the door was shut he looked around hoping to see Dash. When he disn’t see her after a minute he flew to the third floor. Once he skidded to haunt and trotted to the door he calmed down and opened the door quitley. Once the door was open enough, he sighed in relief. There, sleeping on their bed, was Dash. Soarin put a hoof to his heart and sighed. He took a deep breath and silently made his way towards her. He could hear The her soft, adorable, snoring. When he hor close enough he put his head right next to hers so they were nose to nose. Her mane was a little disheveled but she looked peaceful. Soarin almost felt bad for waking her, but, he wanted to get her checked out and confirm whet he already knew, he was going to be a dad in 11 months. He gently leaned forward and placed his lips gently upon hers. He felt her stir and pulled away. Dash kept shifting but in the end she just turned over so her back was facing him. He just shook his head and hovers above her. He landed on the bed softly so she was directly under him. He gently leaned down and kissed her cheek. When she didn’t respond, Soarin bent down and bit her ear roughly and wouldn’t let go.
Dash woke up with a jump when she felt a tingling sensation in her right ear. When she shot up she bumped her head into Soarin’s causing him to bite down harder. “Owwwwww!” Dash yelped out. Soarin let go and backed up to give her space. Dash reached a hoof up to her ear and rubbed. When she removed her hoof Soarin could see the outline of his teeth that sunk into her ear. “What’s wrong?! Are you alright?” Dash said with a worried expression. “Wait why are you home this early.” She looked over to the clock and noticed it was only 11:34. “It’s only 11:30! Why in Equestria did you come and bite my ear?” Dash questioned with a confusing look.
Soarin rubbed the back of his head with a nervous chuckle, “Spit Fire had a last minute meeting with the princesses so she let us go early. I didn’t mean to hurt you, I kissed you and you rolled over. I was just nibbling at first but then your head hit mine and I accidentally bit down harder. I wanted to get you to the doctors as soon as I got home. Are you alright, I really didn’t mean to hurt you." Soarin said with a worried tone as he scooted closer to her. When he got close enough he nuzzled her ear gently around the mark.
Dash giggled, "I'm fine. Just don't try ripping my ear off next time you want me to wake up ya big goof." Dash felt Soarin's chest rumble as he chuckled. "Now, since you want to go to the hospital so badly, guess we can't cuddle." Dash said with a sly tone and a smirk, knowing how much Soarin loved cuddling after practice or shows.
Soarin wrapped his wings around her and gave her a gentle squeeze, "Ohh, don't you worry gorgeous, there will be plenty of time for all of that and.... possibly more after the doctors visit." Soarin said bouncing his eyebrows.
Dash laughed and playfully pushed him away, "Alright lets go. Lets get this over with already." Dash grumbled. She really didn't like going to the hospital but she knew Soarin just wanted to make sure she was alright...... and to make sure she was pregnant.
"What are we waiting for? Lets go so we can get back here and just hug and kiss and-" Soarin never got to finish as a rainbow streak zipped past him and out the door. 'Race ya' was all he heard before the front door could be herd slamming shut. "Hey"
Soarin paced back and forth in the room they were told to wait in. When they arrived (which dash had beaten him to), the nurse told them to go to room 5B and wait for the doctor to come in a begin. Dash was patiently sitting on the examination table, staring at Soarin pace. She was the one possibly pregnant with a foal and he was the one pacing the room.
"Soarin, baby, please calm down. We don't even know for sure if I'm pregnant yet and if I'm not," Dash sighed and looked down at the floor, "we have to wait until I come into heat again. I'll feel so bad if we have wait a whole bucking year to have a foal." Dash said in frustration. She crossed her hooves over her chest and looked to the left. Soarin had ceased his pacing long enough to see his wife's adorable little outburst.
"You're right, as usual." Soarin said with a playful eye roll. He turned and walked over to her and sat beside her on the table. Dash immediately leaned into him and Soarin wrapped his wing around her. As he held her close something wasn't right, familiar, but not right. He placed his hoof on her stomach and started to panic internally, her stomach was incredibly warm and his wing felt a little chilly. "Dash?" Soarin said, his tone full of worry.
"I know, 'my stomach and chest are warm and the rest of me cold'. I didn't want to tell you but since we're at the doctors already, I threw up again for about half an hour." Dash said with a sigh. Soarin looked down at her with concern. Before he could say anything the door began to open. A pegasus stallion with a white coat, brown fur, and light blue mane. His coat covered his cutie mark and he had a stethoscope around his neck and a clipboard tucked under his wing. Soarin reluctantly let go of her and hopped off the table so he wasn't in the way.
"Hello Mrs. Dash and Mr. Skies. My name is Dr. Breech." The doctor started. "Now my nurse tells me, Mr. Skies, you brought Mrs. Dash here because she has been experiencing pregnancy symptoms?" The doctor asked Soarin.
"Yes but it's different and it's starting to worry me." Soarin said with concern as he looked at Dash with worried eyes. Dash returned his gaze with her own reassuring look.
"Alright, would you mind explaining to me what seems to be abnormal? I'm sure whatever it is we can figure it out."
"Well, this morning when I woke up, she wasn't there. When I walked into the bathroom, she looked terrible and kept throwing up none stop." Soarin said, his voice dripping with worry.
"Well that's normal when a mare has been pregnant for two weeks. After two weeks is when signs start showing and we can do accurate pregnancy tests." Dr. Breech began explaining while writing something on his clipboard.
"I know that but it was different. She was throwing up blood and when I felt her stomach and chest... they were both incredibly warm and the rest of her body was freezing. I know about morning sickness and that but all that other stuff, I'm not sure about. Before you came in she told me she threw up for about a half hour while I was practice." Soarin explained to the doctor. Soarin and Dash waited while the doctor wrote all that down on his clipboard. He had a confused look on his face.
"Well, that does sound unusual. Well, with your permission, I'd like to check a few things before we do a pregnancy test to make sure there's nothing else that could've cause this. I've had patients come in thinking they were pregnant but something else was causing the symptoms." Dr. Breech explained.
Before anything else happened, "What kind of tests?" Soarin said as he grew a little worried. Maybe he wouldn't be a father, maybe he would have to wait another year or so, or worse, maybe something was wrong with his beloved Rainbow Dash.
"Well first I'd like to check her throat and make sure-"
"Sorry for interrupting Dr. Breech but," Dash cut him off, "whatever tests you think need to be done will be fine." Dash said while glancing at her paranoid husband.
"Very well Mrs. Dash. I must warn you that one of the tests involve checking your, um, rear section." Dr. Breech said, not sure how to approach that topic.
"That's fine. I understand." Dash said.
"Very well. If you'll excuse, I'll need to get the proper equipment for the tests." Dr. Breech dismissed himself.
"You can stop looking at me like that now." Dash said in annoyance. Soarin shook his head and walked up to her so he was sitting in front of her.
"You know how I feel about other stallions touching you. Heck, you know how much I hate other stallions looking at you the wrong way, especially when they stare at your flank and plot." Soarin grumbled and crossed his hooves, remembering all the stallions that stare at Dash in a suggestive way and whistle. Of course Dash was one of the hottest and fittest mares in Equestria but they did it when Soarin was right there with her and worse, they would flirt with her, RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM!! He remembered he had to punch this one stallion for not leaving her alone and brushing his tail along her side. Soarin growled at the memory.
"Those stallions are just horny, perverts that just want to bang a mare. This is a doctor that's trying to help us, he's not going to do anything wrong. It'll be weird, yes, but he's just helping. I'm sure he's done this before." Dash said stroking Soarin's mane. Soarin relaxed at he words and touch of his wife. Before anything else happened, the door opened reveling the doctor with different equipment. Soarin went to the other side of the table and sat down.
"Alright Mrs. Dash if I can get you o lie down we can start. I'll do the tests around your rear first so I can get those done." Dr. Breech said. Dash listened and lied down on her left side so her back was facing Soarin. She felt a hoof on her shoulder and smiled. Soarin was rubbing her shoulder while the doctor positioned himself behind her. "Alright Mrs. Dash, just roll over on your back and spread your hind legs and I'll start." With that said, Dash rolled over onto her back and spread her hind legs a little hesitantly. This did not go unnoticed to Soarin or the doctor. "Mrs. Dash if you're uncomfortable with this, I won't do it." Dr. Breech said while putting down the piece of equipment you had grabbed.
"It's fine, just feels weird." Dash replied. Soarin took her right hoof in both of his and nuzzled her cheek.
"Very well. Now, you're going to feel a slight pinch for a while because I'm going to insert something into your vaginal opening and the machine will fell weird and it will sting a bit. I'm not sure why it does but it will only be in there for a second." Dr. Breech said. With a nod of her head, Dash gave Soarin's hoof a light squeeze. Even though she had been penetrated before, it was only once and it hurt for a while. Dr. Breech took an instrument that had a long narrow tube attached to a box and inserted the tube into Dash's opening. Dash winced a little as a small sting started forming were the instrument was. He wasn't lying when he said there would be a sting. Soarin began rubbing Dash's hoof. Dr. Breech worked quickly and before long, gently pulled the narrow tube out of her. Dash tensed for a moment but relaxed when that sting went went away. Soarin had let go of her hoof and had his head laying next to hers. He gave her a quick nuzzle on the cheek before looking up at the doctor still positioned behind her Ok, the test is done know get away from Dash's plot or tel her to roll back over and then step away Soarin still didn't like whatever the doctor just did.
"Should I roll back over now?" Dash asked after a minute.
"Oh, sorry, I was busy writing things down. Of course you can, the other test is just a throat and stomach examination." Dr. Breech said. With a quick peck on Soarin's cheek, Dash rolled over to her original position. "Alright I didn't see anything wrong with that part except it was a little swollen and there was a faint magic aurora at the end of you canal. It didn't look bad and it went away towards the end but I'd like you to come back in about three weeks to see if it's still there." Dr. Breech explained to the couple. Soarin's eyes widened, Magic aurora? What's that supposed to mean? Maybe the foals a unicorn? No that can't be, me and Dash are both full blooded pegasi. Unless her element has something to do with it. Soarin's thoughts were interrupted when the doctor came around to the front of Dash and placed the instrument he just used on a tray. "Alright Mrs. Dash, I'm going to do the stomach examination now. I'll need to go get my assistant for this one. I'll only be a moment." Once again, he stepped out and shut the door.
"I don't know who was more uncomfortable, me or you." Dash giggled looking her husband over her shoulder. Soarin just gave her a pout.
"You winced. Worse, he stayed positioned behind when he pulled that, thing, out of you. What was he doing?" Soarin asked in annoyance.
"Would you stop implying he was being pervert. He knew what he was doing. He gave us information you couldn't give without actually inserting something up there." Dash said shaking her head. Soarin actually thought about that for a second.
"Speaking of the information he gave us, how are you feeling? When he said something about it being swollen, I kinda freaked but when he said something about seeing a magical aurora, I didn't know what to think." Soarin said with concern. Dash just shook her head and giggled.
"Don't worry Soarin, I'm fine. Maybe this is why I'm sick, isn't that why you wanted to get to the hospital so quickly?" Dash asked, using her wing to stroke his cheek. Being married for over a year had taught Dash all the methods of calming Soarin down. Dash had pieced this trick together when she realized Soarin loved it when Dash rubbed against him. It was obviously working, Soarin had his eyes closed and a big goofy smile on his face as he leaned into her wings touch. "Everything will be fine. I'm not sure if I'm pregnant anymore with this information but that doesn't mean I don't have a mini Wonder Bolt growing inside me. I kinda want a colt like you to be honest." Dash said, continuing to stroke his cheek with her wing.
"I kinda wanted a filly like you. That way I can have two little Dashies to spoil rotten." Soarin said, enjoying the soft, gentle stroking of his wife's wing. When the door began to open, Dash closed her wing and Soarin grunted in disapproval with the abrupt halt of his wife's wing.
"Sorry for the wait. This is my assistant, nurse Gastro. She'll be doing your stomach test while I do the throat test." Dr. Breech explained while introducing a pink unicorn mare with a brown mane and a cloud walking amulet on. The mare had a coat on that covered her cutie mark as well.
"Hello Mrs. Dash. Now I know you don't won't to be here much longer so all I'm going to do is examine the inside of your stomach and uterus just to be sure nothing is wrong with those areas." Nurse Gastro explained to her.
"Alright. Will it hurt?" Dash asked.
"Of course not. All I'm going to is scan your stomach area with my horn and it will give me a mental picture and I can record anything I see." With that said, Gastro walked up to Dash's stomach and gently placed her horn on it. At the same time Dr. Breech walked up to Dash and told her to open her mouth. Dash, trying to stop from giggling at the tickling sensation in her abdomen, complied and opened her mouth as wide as she could. Dr. Breech held a flashlight up to her open muzzle and looked inside. Soarin felt kinda useless. All he was doing was standing there and looking over Dash while the doctors examined her. He couldn't touch her, he'd get in the way. He couldn't talk, he'd distract both Dash and the doctors.
"Alright, all done. Know the last thing we need is a urine sample for the last tests. Know we can't have you pee in a cup so while we were testing your stomach and throat, nurse Gastro used her magic to stick a tube into your urethra and collected it." Dr. Breech said. As soon as he said it, Gastro held up a container with her magic. Dash didn't even feel that part. "Looks like you guys will have to wait about 5 minutes then you can go up to the front desk and the receptionist will give you your results and all the information we've collected. It will also have a date I'd like to see you again to check on that magic aurora. It'll also tell you if you're pregnant or not." With that said, both ponies stepped out and left the couple alone.
"You know based on the look on nurse Gastro's face, I don't think your pregnant anymore." Soarin said with a sigh. He was really looking forward to being a dad in 11 months. Now it looks like he'll have to wait another year.
"Don't worry. We can prepare more for a foal in the meantime." Dash said with a slight sadness in her voice. Dash really wanted a foal. "Hey, why don't we look at the paper when we get home. I know I'm probably not pregnant but we can still have a foal, we just have to wait."
"Alright. I think it's been five minutes. We can leave now." Soarin helped Dash get down, seeing as her legs had fallen asleep. "It's to bad, I may or may not have basically told a couple squads you were pregnant." Soarin said, scratching the back of his head.
Dash just giggled. As they approached the front desk, the mare behind it already had there papers ready to be taken. Soarin thanked the mare and grabbed the envelope. Even though Dash was most likely not pregnant ,due to the information the doctor said about her vaginal opening and the unenthusiastic look on nurse Gastro's face after examining her stomach and uterus, they were still happy they knew that whatever was in the package would tell them what was wrong with her.
When they arrived home, Soarin was tired and Dash was looking a little down. Soarin opened the door for her and noticed her slumped posture. Soarin knew she was pretty upset about the possibility of not being pregnant. Honestly if she wasn't pregnant, Soarin would blame himself. They only bred once during her heat and since it was two weeks into her heat, it wouldn't be as effective as when they did it when she first came into it. They only did it once because Soarin was afraid of hurting her. They both sat down on their couch and just sat there in silence. Soarin brightened up when he saw the envelope on the table. He grabbed it with his hoof and nudged Dash. Dash saw the envelope in his hoof and smiled.
"Sure, why not. Maybe nurse Gastro just had a poker face." Dash said, grabbing the envelope. Soarin scooted closer and wrapped a wing around her. Dash leaned into him and opened the envelope. She pulled out the paper and both scanned the paper for pregnancy test. At the very bottom said "pregnancy result" Soarin and Dash looked at each other with nervous eyes. They looked back at the paper and saw the result column next to pregnancy test. In that column it said.......
Next Chapter: Chapter 7: Positive celebration or negative waiting Estimated time remaining: 44 MinutesAuthor's Notes:
I couldn't resist, I had to do a cliffhanger. Now the next chapter will give you the result. The chapter was getting longer than I expected. Now let me clear something up, they assumed based on nurse Gastro's face she wasn't pregnant. Hope you guys aren't to mad at me. Remember, I already know how I'm writing this so maybe she's pregnant, maybe she's not. Later in the story you'll find something out about Dash that I hope won't mess up these chapters, I hope to put it in the next three chapters, if I don't sorry. Hope you enjoyed
(Remember, please tell me what I need to fix. I will fix it to the best of my ability. If I can't I'll send you a private email explaining why but if I can fix it, I will)
