Dr. Buten nodded. “I think that’s smart. I know a lot of couples want to move into parenthood quickly, but my wife and I think along the same lines as y’all. We like to travel some so we’re holding off a few years before we take that journey. I really like my fishing trips too much right now.”

Fuck me. This guy is rubbing off on me a little. Of course, it didn’t hurt he mentioned a wife…and fishing.

“So, we’re here for an exam and a new prescription for birth control. Your last doctor was in Ireland, correct?”

Maebh nodded and peeked my way. She lifted her brow and motioned for the door, as if giving me one last chance to bolt.

Dr. Buten waited for me to decide whether I was staying or going. When I didn't move, he nodded.

“Let’s go ahead and lean back then, shall we?”

Maebh scooted to the end of the table and propped her feet into the stirrups as Dr. Buten got a little too up close and personal with my girl.

“Whoa, hold up,” I said, standing and glaring at the good ol’ doctor. “What do you think you’re doing?”

Dr. Buten looked amused. “I’m about to examine my patient.”

I went to tell him there was no fucking way he was touching her, when Maebh reached over and grabbed my wrist, jerking me back to her side.

“Maybe you should wait outside.” The smile she wore on her face was not a friendly one, but more of an I told you not to stay in here smile. My Irish-tempered lass was just under the surface and this was my one warning.

My mouth dropped open. “While he’s in here touching you?”

“Examining,” Dr. Buten corrected me.

I glared at him, and he smiled. Again.

Bastard.

“Cord, he’s not touching me. Stop behaving this way or you’ll never be allowed to come back with me again. Even when I’m pregnant.”

Going to protest, the good doctor cleared his throat and shook his head slightly, as if telling me to stand there and keep my mouth shut or I’d regret it. I decided to follow his silent advice.

Sometime during all of this the nurse came into the room. She gave me a soft smile and got to work helping the doc examine my girl.

Maebh and Dr. Buten carried on a normal conversation about the goddamn weather in Texas, comparing it to Ireland. The weather of all things! He successfully ignored the death rays I was trying to shoot his way while he worked. When he stood, everything he said started to sound like he was talking into a can. I couldn’t focus on the words, I was watching him too closely. He moved to Maebh’s breast while continuing to talk about his wife taking up knitting classes, and Maebh mentioned she was interested in knitting, as well. When the nurse chimed in about preferring Bunco games I knew I was in an alternate universe. I’d fallen into the fucking Twilight Zone where a situation like this was completely fucking normal.

What in the fuck is happening?

“I’ll get the information about where she’s taking the classes for you,” he said while ripping off his gloves and tossing them in the trash. “Everything looks good. Be sure to continue with your monthly breast self-exams. My nurse will call you with the test results, no matter the results.”

Dr. Buten started to wash his hands, looked at me, and chuckled. I’d never wanted to hit a man so much in my life.

“I bet this is the last time you ever stay in the room, isn’t it?” he said with a snort laugh.

“You have no idea how badly I want to punch you right now.”

“Cord Parker!” Maebh said, smacking my arm.

The doc laughed before shaking his head. “Trust me, I know exactly how bad you want to punch me. You’re not the first man who has decided to stay in the room…and then regretted it.”

The nurse helped Maebh sit up as she shot me a dirty look. Then she focused on the doctor. “Thank you, Dr. Buten. Next year he won’t be present.”

He nodded and said, “Unless we’re in here before then.”

He winked and Maebh blushed. It took me a few seconds to catch the meaning.

Babies.

“You can get dressed now, Maebh. Our office will call you in the next few days.”

Maebh nodded and thanked the nurse and the good doc again as they left the room and shut it behind them. I fell into the chair and buried my hands in my face while letting out a long, frustrated moan.

“Holy fuck. That was intense. Why did I think it was a good idea to stay?”

“I told you,” Maebh said as she got dressed. “You didn’t want to listen to me when I said what was going to happen.”

“He touched your tits!”

She rolled her eyes. “This is why they don’t want the guys back here. Are you happy now?”
