I try to stay healthyβyou know, exercise, eat right, get plenty of sleep, things like that. Lately though, a couple of things happened, and I had to go see a doctor. It wasn't anything serious, just silliness on my part.
The first time I was at the pool in the campus fitness center. There weren't too many people there, but there was sunlight streaming in through the windows, lighting the pool area up in an eerie blue aquarium kind of way. I'd been swimming, and got out to go down to the whirlpool bath. I guess I must have been walking too fast, and the deck was kind of slippery. I slipped, and fell on my backside. Cheryl, one of the lifeguards, rushed over.
"Emi, are you alright?"
"Yeah, I... uh... I slipped," I told her, rubbing my tail bone. I tried to get up, but that wasn't easy.
"Hey, careful now." Cheryl examined my rear. I was wearing a one piece swimsuit that day, a sleek blue wet-look Realise number, fairly high cut on my legs. It didn't cover much of my butt cheeks, but it did cover up the place I'd knocked. "Maybe you'd better go see the sports doctor at the university clinic."
"No, I'm fine really," I told her, but when I tried to walk, I could feel where I hit it. I slowly limped back to the shower.
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah." I didn't think it was serious, but actually, I could feel it when I bent over. Maybe I should go see the doctor just in case. The clinic wasn't far. I kept my swimsuit on, but pulled my hoodie on over top. I don't usually walk around campus in a swimsuit, but I didn't think it would be that big a deal.
Outside, people were kind of staring at me. Maybe this swimsuit is a bit risque after all. A lot of girls wear thongs in the pool. Anyway, I tried to ignore all these gawkers, and forged on to the clinic.
When I got there, the receptionist asked,
"Do you have an appointment?"
"No, but I kind of hurt myself," I explained, pointing to my back. She took down my name and my insurance info.
"Anyway, have a seat. We'll call you."
I wasn't sure if I could sit down, so I just sort of stood at the back, hiding my bare butt cheeks against the wall. Some of the other students in the waiting room turned to look at me. I felt kind of self-conscious. I guess I did look strange with my bare hips showing.
Eventually, a nurse came, and led me to a large room with three examination tables in it. The doctor was talking to a red-headed woman, a patient. The doctor looked European. His eyes shone, and he had a wide reassuring grin.
The nurse put my chart next to the empty table, and told me I could lie down. I just leaned up against the table, waiting. There was a guy in a leather jacket on the third table. He was just kind of sitting there looking at me. A bit unnerving at first, but I guess he was just curious.
The redhead left, and the doctor went over to talk with the jacket guy. The nurse led in another woman, a fit-looking blonde.
"Hey," she said to me. "How are you doing over there?"
"I fell," I explained. She got me to show her my backside, and then reassured me,
"You're probably fine."
"What happened to you?"
"I was running, and twisted my ankle," she said, showing me. "Dr. Zelinka is really good with these kind of things. He'll have us good as new in no time."
Eventually, the doctor came over to talk to me. The Goth guy was still there, waiting for something I guess.
"What seems to be the problem?" the doctor asked me.
"I was running at the pool, and fell."
"Can you show me where it hurts?"
I turned away from him, and lifted up my hoodie showing him my backside. He leaned over, and examined my bottom, but I guess he couldn't see where I landed because of my swimsuit.
"Uh, where exactly?"
"Um, on my tailbone...?" I answered, not sure of the right word.
"Do you think you could show me?" he asked. Was he asking me to take off my swimsuit? I hesitated, wondering what to do. Was I really supposed to get naked in front of him just like that? The doctor maybe realized I was worried, and pulled the curtain around, so at least the goth guy wouldn't see. "I can call a nurse if you like," he offered. I raised an eyebrow. "To observe I mean."
"No, that's alright," I told him. I really didn't want a big audience. I slowly pulled off my hoodie, and peeled the straps of my swimsuit off my shoulders. The doctor wasn't looking at me. He was reading my chart. Slowly I peeled off my suit.
"Tsuruta? That sounds Japanese," he mused.
"It is," I nodded, pulling my swimsuit down until my breasts popped out. I had my back turned, but honestly, I felt so weird getting naked in front of him. The curtain gave some privacy, but he hadn't even closed it all the way! I kept worrying that the Goth guy might peek in, and see me stripping.
I pushed my suit all the way down past my hips to my thighs exposing my backside as well. I looked back at the doctor, embarrassed. He was trying to act professional, but his eyes had lit up. He must be in this situation a lot, but there was something about the way I look that was getting him excited.
"At the top here," I pointed to my lower back. "Can you see?"
He washed his hands, and pulled on a pair of surgical gloves. I wasn't sure what he was planning, but then suddenly, I felt him grab one of my butt cheeks! I was so shocked!
"Here?" he asked, probing my tail bone with the fingers of his other hand. It felt so weird having him manhandle me like this. I know he's a doctor and everything, but the way he was touching me seemed so kinky. He pulled one butt cheek to the side, examining my crack.
"Yes," I blushed. My hello kitty had started up, tingling away like crazy.
"Does it hurt when I do this?" he asked, pushing on the base of my spine.
"Ahhn," I moaned. "That tickles."
"There isn't a bruise or anything. Here, lie down," he told me. I hesitated for a second, and then slid my swimsuit off, stepping out of it, stark naked now.
