"You're seeing the doctor today, love, aren't you? I'll just see if he's ready for you."

"Oh, great," thought Claire, "tell the world." She sat, feeling self conscious, while the nurse knocked on the door marked "Doctor" and disappeared into the room beyond. A minute later, she reappeared holding a large plastic bottle "He'll just be a few minutes." She handed the bottle to Clare. "If you could just empty your bladder and pop a sample of your wee in here for him. You can give it to him when you go in." She saw Clare's confusion and added "Toilets are just back there on the left". Then she consulted her notes "Now then. Katie Price? Would you like to come through, love?"

Claire envied Katie Price. It was coming to something she thought when you envied someone going for a smear test. She felt more self conscious than ever now, knowing that her secret had been revealed. She sensed the other girls wondering what was wrong with her, knowing that she was "seeing" and being "seen" by the doctor and that HE would be ready in a few minutes.

Miserably she made her back down the corridor. In the toilet she managed to half fill the bottle. She hoped that was good enough. She wiped carefully and deployed the Heaven Scent once again.

Returning to her seat, with as much dignity as you can when you are holding a large bottle of your own piss, she took out the Molliere she was studying. It had a calming effect. But she had only been reading for a couple of minutes when she heard the doctor's door open.

"Claire Thomas?" This time it was a male voice that called her.
