Chapter 771
Trinity
Reece called Griffin over pretty early the next day. After the kids had come to eat breakfast with me in my room and I hugged and kissed them all goodbye before they went to school, Reece made the call. Griffin, fearing that something was wrong, came running right away.
“I’m here. I’m here. What happened? What is it? Is it the babies? Is it Trinity? What’s going on?” He came running into the room like something was chasing him. He had run all the way here with his medical bag in hand and his stethoscope around his neck. I could tell that he was truly scared.
“Reece, what did you tell him? He looks like the hounds of hell are after him.”
“I only told him that I needed him to come over as soon as he could. That was all.” He was acting all innocent like he hadn’t just done something wrong.
.....
“Dammit, Reece. You could have told him that there was no medical emergency. You most likely scared years off of his life.” I scolded him.
“Yes, I scared years off of his immortal life.” That made Reece laugh, and I had to fight it or I would have laughed as well. And I really didn’t think that my laughter was fair to Griffin right now.
“So, there is nothing wrong?” I could see Griffin visibly calm down as he realized what was happening.
“No, Griffin, there is nothing wrong. Reece just wants a consultation on something.” I informed him while glaring at my husband from across the room.
“I didn’t say that there was an emergency.” Reece pointed out to me, trying to tell me that this wasn’t his fault.
“Yeah, but you told him to come over as soon as he could.” I snapped at him. “That could be seen as a ‘hurry, there’s trouble’.”
“What is he, Lassie’s owner? Comes running cause the dog barks and he expects that someone is going to die?” He was really having a laugh today. I didn’t know what was up with him, but he was having a grand old time. “Anyway. There is no emergency, Griffin. Just like Trinity said, we just need your consultation.”
“Did something happen to Lassie now?” Griffin leveled a look at Reece, one filled with skepticism and a slight amount of anger.
“Fuck no.” I almost laughed at Reece’s vehement denial. “This still has to do with Trinity. And it’s not bad so you should be happy” Reece was funny when he was embarrassed like this.
“OK, Trinity, what is it that you need?” I think Griffin decided to just ignore Reece for now.
“Well, after yesterday’s therapy session I am able to move my body just fine. Like, it is fully back to normal. Reece wanted to get your opinion on what we should do now.” I explained it to him calmly like Reece should have done.
“Wow, that is amazing. I knew that using magic alongside the therapy would work so much better. I am so happy for you Trinity. This is so wonderfully amazing. I just don’t know what to say. This..this is perfect.”
I didn’t expect that Griffin would be so excited for this. If I didn’t know any better, I would think that he was being told that he was the one that could move their body again. That or he was some lucky kid getting a fully paid for shopping trip to a toy store or something. It was actually kind of cute. And I was happy that I got to see this.
“Alright. I don’t think that we should get too ahead of ourselves. Let me check you out and see where your muscles are with their recovery. You might still need to exercise regularly just to keep them in the shape that they are in. Until you’re back on your feet that is.”
“That is what we want to talk about, Griffin. When should she get back on her feet?” Reece was giving me a stern look. It was like he was saying, “come on doc, tell her to be a good girl and listen to me’.
“One thing at a time, Reece. Let me examine her first and then we will discuss that.
Of course, I didn’t have much of a choice right now. These two wanted to make sure that I wasn’t lying about being about to move perfectly fine. So, I had to endure Griffin checking everything as he went along. My arms, my hands, my fingers, all of it. My legs, my feet, my toes, all of that as well. I swear he would have checked my head, ears, mouth and nose too, if he thought that it would do him any good.
“Wow, I can’t believe this, your muscles are completely back to normal. I can’t even detect an issue like I could before. There is absolutely nothing wrong with you anymore.” He seemed so happy and delighted. I know that he was now happy that Reece called him here.
“I already knew that.” I laughed at him. “And now you can tell Reece that there is nothing to keep me off my feet. I am free to do whatever I want without consequences because I am so healthy.
“I wouldn’t say that, Trinity. You’re still pregnant with triplets. If you put too much stress on your body, you might go into preterm labor. I mean, chances are you are going to be delivering close to a month early and that is preterm enough for them, we don’t need to be adding to the stress we are already placing on them. I recommend that you stay off your feet. You can use a wheelchair and have someone help you to the bath and bed. That is all that I want you standing for. Moving from the chair to something else. And then, only if it’s less than ten steps. You need to let these babies get bigger, stronger and more healthy. And that means that you need to keep them in there for a lot longer.”
“Hahh.” I sighed in annoyance at his words. I was so certain that he was going to side with me. I mean, I didn’t have gestational hypertension like I did with Reagan and Rika. There was nothing that should be keeping me off of my feet like that time. I didn’t want to be in bed all day. I didn’t want to be stuck in a wheelchair and have someone needing to take care of me. That wasn’t fun at all.
“Sigh all you want, Trinity, but you just got the doctor’s orders. You were so adamant that we listened to whatever Griffin had to say about this subject. And I agreed with you. I told you that I would be following whatever he said. You agreed to it as well. And now that he has told you his orders, you cannot back on it now.” Clearly, Reece thought that I was going to renege on our agreement. He thought that I was going to pout and try to get myself out of this. And he was totally right. Only now I had lost my chance since he was throwing it in my face.
“And before I forget, since I know what happened last time, no intimacy. Absolutely none. It can cause too much for your body to handle at the moment and you might have the boys too soon. Your best bet is to just abstain from it altogether. Then again, knowing you two, you probably already did that.” I saw Griffin sigh and look dejected.
“Nope. I shut her down. She was like a crazed nympho, but I told her no.”
“OK, that was more than I needed to know, but good for you. Stay strong, Reece.” Griffin laughed at Reece’s words as he packed up his bag. “Now, if there is nothing else, I have other patients to attend to. I will see you later Trinity. Goodbye to both of you.”
With that, Griffin left the room and Reece started to laugh. I knew why too and that made me want to hit him.
“Screw you scruffy.” I stuck my tongue out at him.
“Sorry, you can’t do that Little Bunny. Doctor’s orders.”
“Oh my Goddess!” I rolled my eyes at him and threw my head back against the chair.
“No, you’re the goddess, not me.” He was having so much fun right now. “Now, I think I need to order you a wheelchair. I wonder how fast they can get it here if I offer them a massive bonus” He was enjoying this way too much.
Though, he did work quite efficiently. He managed to get a top of the line wheelchair delivered here within the hour. That was the power of money for you.
I may not have been happy with the decision that Griffin made, or with how overly happy that it made Reece to hear those orders, but at least it wasn’t all bad. I was fine, just pregnant. I could move and feed myself. And I wasn’t stuck in bed this time. I just needed to stay off of my feet. So, with this new wheelchair that Reece got me, I could move around the house. I could go down to the kids’ bedrooms and spend time with them. I could go back to the rest of the house and have meals with everyone again. I didn’t have to be stuck in my room the entire time that I was pregnant. So, even though it wasn’t ideal, it wasn’t the worst that it could be either.
