//------------------------------// // The Checkup // Story: Spike Gives Rarity a Checkup // by CAPTAIN YOSHI HD //------------------------------// Spike was waiting for Rarity at the hospital to give her a checkup. A few weeks ago, Spike went to the hospital to ask for a job as a doctor for checkups. Rarity was heading over to the hospital for Spike to give her a checkup. She normally gets checkups from other doctors, except for Spike, who is now working. She waited in the patient room. Spike opened a door to the room. "Rarity?", he called. "Is she anywhere?" "That's me.", Rarity said as she got off her seat. "I was hoping you would you appear so you can see me." "Come with me this way.", Spike said leading her to his checkup room. They entered the room. "Take a seat." Rarity walked over to a stool and sat on it. "So, what are you going to do first doctor?", she asked. "I'm going to check your temperature first.", Spike said. He took a thermometer from his desk drawers and put it under Rarity's tongue. Rarity held it under her tongue for three seconds and it beeped. Spike removed the thermometer from her tongue and took a look at the temperature. "It doesn't say anything, so you're healthy.", Spike said. "Beautiful.", Rarity said. "So, what's next?" "I need to check to see if you have anything in your throat.", Spike said as he grabbed a popsicle stick from his desk drawers. "Open up and say 'Ahh'." Rarity opened her mouth wide and said, "Ahhhhhhhh." Spike pressed Rarity's tongue down to look in her throat. "I don't see anything in there.", he said. "So, you're good, you don't have anything stuck in there, nor you have a soar throat." "Time to check your heart rate.", Spike said. "Sit down on my leather bed with the paper on it." Rarity got off her seat, walked over to the leather bed with paper, and sat down. Spike grabbed his stethoscope from his drawers and put the ear parts in his ears. "Take deep breaths as I put this metal part on your chest and belly.", he said. He sat next to Rarity on the bed and put the metal part of his stethoscope on Rarity's heart. Rarity closed her eyes and took deep breaths as Spike puts his stethoscope on her chest and belly. Then, Spike stopped. "How did that feel?", he asked. "That didn't bad at all.", Rarity said. "What happens now?" "Next, I'm going look inside your ears.", Spike said. He walked over to his desk drawers and grabbed his otoscope from one of them. He walked back over to Rarity on the leather bed. He put his otoscope in Rarity's left ear and looked through it. Rarity giggled. "Darling, take it easy, it tickles my ear.", she said. Spike went over to Rarity's right ear, put the otoscope in it, and looked through it again. "Looks like everything's clear in your ears.", he said. He went over to his desk drawers and grabbed his reflex testing hammer. Then, he skidded back to Rarity on the leather bed. "I'm going to tap your flanks with this and your hooves will go up a little bit.", he said. He scooted closer to Rarity's left flank and tap it with his reflex testing hammer, making her left hoof go up a little bit. He went over to her right flank and tapped it with his tool, making her right hoof go up a little bit. He went to his drawers and put the reflex testing hammer back. Then, he sped back to Rarity. "Alright, time for the next thing, I'm going apply pressure on your belly, so lay down real quick.", He said. Rarity brought her back hooves on the leather bed and laid down on her back. Spike walked over to Rarity's body and took a look at the unicorn's white puffy belly. He put his hands on Rarity's belly and started rubbing it. Rarity started to laugh. "Hahahahahahaha Spike Ohohohoho It tickles Ohohohohoho.", she said. "Just relax your belly, it will just go on for thirty seconds.", Spike said. Spike pushed his fingers into Rarity's belly and pressed them on her waist. Then, he was done. "Alright, that's it. Now, last thing and we're done." "What is it, Spike?", Rarity asked. "Time for your flu shot.", Spike said as he went to his drawers and grabbed a syringe. Rarity made a scared face. He eyes widened and her back hooves shook. Spike noticed it. "Are you nervous?", he asked. Rarity nodded. "Yes I am.", she said. Spike took one of Rarity's front hooves and held it firmly. "I know it can hurt a little bit, just hold my claw tightly and it won't hurt too much.", he said, trying to make the unicorn relaxed. Rarity held Spike's claw tightly as she felt the syringe puncture her arm. It didn't hurt as much. Spike removed the needle from the unicorn's arm. "How did it feel?", he asked. "It hurt a little bit, but, it wasn't that bad.", Rarity said while covering the hole in her arm. Spike grabbed a band ade from his cabinet and covered up the hole. "Looks like your checkup is done, miss.", he said. Rarity sat up and got off the leather bed. "Thanks for your time with me, Spike.", she said. "Anytime, Rarity.", Spike said. "You know, we should do this again sometime." "We should.", Rarity said. "I have another appointment with you next week, it that's fine with you.", Spike said. "That's no problem at all, Darling.", Rarity said. "Good day." "And good day to you to, Rarity.", Spike said. Rarity leaves the room. It was the best checkup she had ever gotten from Spike. She hoped it will happen again sometime.
