"Are you nervous ",he asked
"Yea", I responded nervously.
"trust me, it will only hurt a little bit, since this is your first time
", he said while smiling.
"Ok"
"Ok, here we go, open them wider!" He commanded.
"Is this wide enough?", I asked while panting.
"Yea, calm down a little bit, and it won't hurt as bad", he assured me.
"Ok"
He inserted his hard machine inside
and that's when I heard the popping sound.
*pop*
"Did it hurt as bad as you thought it would?, "He asked while moving his tool inside of me once again.
I shake my head while a tear sled down my left cheek.

When we were done, he went to the front desk to make me another dental appointment, since I couldn't talk.

I had to remove my upper wisdom teeth out because it was causing me extreme pain. So I wouldn't be able to go to school but, they would send someone at my house to give me my homework. I know right, pure bullshit.

"Look, I'm gonna drop you home, and do you want me to stay with you?", my mom asked me and I shook my head no. I could take care of myself, beside, it didn't hurt a lot, now that was a big ass lie, cause it was hurting like hell.
"Are you sure?", she asked me one more time. And I looked at her like she was deaf.
"Ok, if you need anything, call me, ok?"
I nodded.
I went inside of the house, took my med, climbed in my bed and took a nap. By the time I get up, hopefully, the medication will reduce the size of my cheek.
I woke up the next day which is Tuesday. I went to the bathroom to do my morning hygiene, when I looked in the mirror, I was surprised that my faced wasn't swollen like yesterday, I guess the meds did do their job. But you could still tell that I had a tooth removed.
When I was done, I went to the kitchen to make hot chocolate , for myself, since it was kinda chilly during this time of the year, and everybody else were at work and school.
I did a little clean up around the house, I even did the laundry, while my drink was still being prepared. When I finished with everything, I took my hot cocoa added some M&Ms, marshmallows and a lot of whipped cream, then I went to the patio to enjoy it, while reading on Wattpad.

At 2:10 exact, I heard the bell ring. It couldn't be my parents because they don't come home until seven in the afternoon today, my mom is a nurse and my dad is a cop.
Nor it could have been my sister, since She comes home at 4:30.

I got up and went to the door and quickly slammed it. Wished I hadn't done that, because all of a sudden I felt like I was under a church bell.
I quickly opened the door and smacked Zeke's hand away from the doorbell. Man, did I wish I could talk.

"You gonna invite me in?", he asked
I shook my head.
"Fine then, here, I brought you your homework." He said handling me a huge stack of paper and walked away.

Why did HE have bring me them, instead of someone else?

Wednesday came, and I still was eating soup and drinking tea. I needed some real food, like a foot long tuna sub from Subway, my favorite fast food.
He brought me my homework again, without practically making me deaf.

"Are you ok?", he asked me
And I shook my head.
"Did you remove a tooth?"
I nodded and made the peace sign with my fingers.
"Here", he handed me a notepad." They're the worst"
I smiled at him, never have I ever thought I would do such thing while being near him.

"Look I'm very sorry, for disrespecting you last week, please forgive me, I don't expect an apology, and can you please tutor me back." he asked with pleading eyes. He almost look cute.

I wrote on the notepad and showed it to him.
"What do you mean no"? He asked
I looked at him, cause he be acting like he is stuck on stupid , so I pointed at my face.
"Ohh, you don't have to talk, you could use the notepad, look I really need your help and I have a test on the human body this Monday. And if you help me I will help you catch up with your schoolwork.
I wrote on the notepad and showed it to him.
"Deal it is then". he said while smiling a little making his left dimple more visible.
Hopefully I won't regret my decision.
