It was the first wave of covid in my UNI life. All uni students are required to have their first vaccine at the gym hall today in the afternoon, and I was freaking nervous. Both of my feets and hands were shaking uncontrollably and were full of sweats, and my eyes can't stop staring at the number ques.

I'm now at the very front row of the seats, waiting for my number to show up. I usually fine with handling pain but since it was my first injection for a long time, I can't help but feel nervous and anxious in the same time.

" is it gonna be painfull? does it bruise after injection? is the needle too long that it gets to my bones? will I scream or faint?". That's the only thing that I thought since I got here. I'm totally paranoid about this. As I keep on staring at the monitor, my number finally showing up on the screen, if it wasn't for my hand covering my mouth, I would scream in front of everyone. It says that I have to enter a tent with no.4 on it. I scanned all the white tents and noticed that the tent were located at the very end.

I slowly walked towards it and finally stopped just outside the entrance of the tent. I took a moment to calm myself and breath out. " (sighed~) hope is not that painful...". I took a deep breathed and went inside.

Me: Good afternoon! thank you for your hard work! ( I said unexpectedly loud than normal while closing both eyes )

Expect for an answer, I then opened my eyes and saw a very distinguished young man wearing a doctor uniform with a stethoscope wrapped around his neck in surprised.

An embarrassment instantly strike me and instantly look down on the floor. I then heard a deep chuckle. I look at him in confused.

Dr.? : Looks like your very nervous... I can't blame you for that....please have a seat so we can start (He said while smiling at me)

Me: y...yeah....thank you (I said almost whisper feeling ashame towards myself)

I then sat down.

Dr.?: Okay, My name is Dr.H/n and I'll be asking some questions and checking you before we inject you with the vaccine. alright miss? (He said gently while sitting on his chair)

I just nodded blankly towards him. He then replied with a smile and start the questioning. After finish that, he starts to get near me and said.

Dr. H/n: Alright, I'll be now checking your heart. Please stay still for me and straighten your body. (He said now standing closer)

I obeyed his instructions quickly and wait for him. He then wore his stethoscope and lean close beside me. I gulped feeling nervous at the sudden close up. He then gently put it against my chest to hear my heart beat or anything inside and his other hand gently hold my side. " Damnit....I think he definitely can hear my heart beating so fast". 

Dr. H/n: Can you straighten your body posture please ( He said unexpectedly near my ear making me flinched a bit )

I did it through shocked, but if I'm not mistaken, I saw the corner of his lips curved upwards. He got even closer that I felt his warmth beside me. " is it usually this close?". I thought.
