AMELIAS POV

I felt my anxiety burst knowing I was about to get numbed and it was not going to be fun. She took out one of the q-tips making me look at her nervously

"It'll be alright little sis you've got this we're going to numb you up real quick and fill these two cavities then you'll be all done" Taylor said softly as she kept the numbing shot out of my view

I already knew what was going to happen but I did appreciate her trying to make this go smoother

"Can you open for me" Taylor asked making me hesitantly open my mouth as she stuck her mirror in so I wouldn't be able to close it again

"Just a quick pinch here" she said just before poking the numbing shot in my mouth making me wince at the feeling

"I know I'm sorry" Taylor said softly as she started injecting the medicine into my mouth

She finished with that and took the needle out letting me close my mouth while we waited for that to work

"So Tef where's Joe I haven't seen him in a bit" I asked knowing he used to own the office with Taylor

"Oh um, he doesn't work here anymore, we're not together anymore so I mean I honestly don't know" she replied

"Oh I'm so sorry I didn't know" I said sympathetically

"It's fine it's honestly for the best" she said as she twisted the hand piece onto the drill attaching the bur

"That's a lot smaller then I remember it" I say looking at the tip

"Really? It's the same burs" she replied trying it to make sure it turned on making my eyes widen in panic

"And a lot faster" I say hesitantly

"Oh sorry I just had to make sure it worked, it's ok it's not that bad, you've done this so many times it's the same process, same tools, same burs nothings changed other then the fact your older now" she said softly as she grabbed her mirror from the tray again

"Open and we'll get this done" she said softly

I opened my mouth again not really wanting to do this but knowing if I didn't I wouldn't hear the end of it and she'd actually spam my phone. She started drilling out my tooth and it was a lot more uncomfortable then I remembered, mind you I didn't really remember much other then this was something that we didn't wanna have to have done. She finished off and started filling it before drying it and grabbing another numbing shot

"Your half way there, it's not so bad is it" Taylor said

"I guess not" I reply really not wanting to do this for another tooth

"Open up and we'll get this last tooth numbed" she said softly

I opened my mouth again and she warned me before poking the second numbing shot in my gums making me wince, that one hurt more then the first one

"Your good I'm almost done" she said injecting the numbing medicine into my gums.

She took it out letting me close my mouth while we wait again

"God this is so much easier now that your older" Taylor said

"Maybe for you" I sigh

"I know it's not the most enjoyable sis but you know if you didn't wait so long to come in we probably could've prevented these cavities" she said

"Yeah yeah" I sigh as she grabbed the mirror and drill again

I opened my mouth again when prompted and she drilled and filled my second cavity before letting me sit back up again

"As normal your mouth may hurt after the numbing has worn off but you can just take pain meds for that" Taylor said as she cleaned the room up

"Ok thanks Tay" I said standing up

I was so glad to be done and able to stretch. I left the office and went back home just glad to be caught up on everything so my siblings can leave me alone for a while
