AMELIAS POV

"W what's wrong" I whimper nervously

"It looks like your going to be getting your first root canal hun" Taylor said sympathetically

"W what no" I whimper

"Amelia your one tooth is really infected we're gonna have to do a root canal to get all that decay out, you also still have a baby tooth that is being pretty stubborn I think we should take out as well, it's your last one and once that's out your adult teeth can start coming in better" Joe said softly

"I don't want too" I cry

"He'll be gentle Amelia but this really should be something that's dealt with now while the tooth is still able to be fixed" Taylor said coming back and sitting on the stool beside me

"Of course your gonna be on his side, you always say you'd rather get fillings done when they're smaller before it turns into a root canal that means root canals are bad" I reply in tears

"I'm on his side because I know how important this is to get done hun and if you don't do it now there's a chance we won't be able to save that tooth if it gets any worse and it can start effecting other teeth which is something we obviously don't want, I know what I usually say honey but that's just because root canals are more lengthy procedures, they aren't as easy as filling that can be done in 10-20 minutes" she replied back

"Fine" I whimper nervously

"We'll start off numbing you for the root canal and we'll save the extraction for last" Joe said grabbing what he needs from the desk

"I don't know about this" I whimper looking at my sister

"You'll be ok Amelia I promise, he'll be gentle and I'll be here the whole time you can squeeze my hand as much you need" she said offering me her hand which I took and squeezed tightly as Joe came back and sat behind the chair making me look up at him in fear
