A Life With You - BTY VERSE

Wisdom Teeth

Imagine. Early in the morning, Darren put your bag in the trunk of your car before sitting in the driver seat. "Let's go" he says, with a fake smile. "What's going on?" you asks, he has been acting weird since yesterday. "Nothing" he said, looking at the road as he drives. "Are you nervous?" you chuckle. "What? No. Not at all" he answers quickly. You just look at him, silently, just waiting for his real answer. "Ok, I might be a little nervous" he admits. "Baby. I'm just gonna get my wisdom teeth removed" you say as you slide your hand on his shoulder. "I know but uhm, it's the first time I'll see you in the hospital. That's weird" he explains. "We will only be there for a few hours Dare, not even a whole day" you reassure him. "Yeah" he tries to calm. You send a group text to some of Darren's friends. "Darren is weirdly worried for my wisdom teeth operation, one of you will be available to stay with him while I'm going under the knife? ;) xoxo - y/n". You add the hospital adress, and wait for an answer. Darren was very silent, you did your best to try to make him less nervous, but nothing worked. Joey texted you that he will be there. Darren and you went in the hospital and in your room, he helped you getting dressed in the hospital overall.

You texted the number of your room to Joey before a nurse can to take you to the operating room. "See you later D" you smile at him. "Wait!" he says as he stops the stretcher. "Can I kiss her before?" he asks to the nurse with puppy eyes. The nurse chuckles and agreed. He kisses you softly and looked at you like it was the last time he will see your face. "I love you" he whispers against your lips. "I love you too. Babe, I'm not going to an open heart surgery, they're just going to take out some teeth. Stop worrying" you say, trying to sound as conforting as you could. "Okay" he says, looking into your eyes. The nurse took you away, and you glance once last time at him with a smile. He waves at you and did his best to make his smile real. You went to the block, and your operation went well. They took your wisdom teeth, and because of the anesthesia, you took a little longer to wake up. When you finally woke up in your room, an oxygen tube was under your nose and a catheter in your hand. You felt a little out. "Hellooo" Joey said in front of your face. "Is she awake?" Darren asks, desesperately. "Man you really have to calm down, this is getting ridiculous" Joey responded. Darren ignored him and held your hand. "You okay?" he asks you. You tries to speak but the pain in your jaw was too strong for now. You just nod and Darren called a nurse to inform you were awake. She checks on you and give you some iced cubes to put on your face.

After a few moments, you asked if you could have some pain reliever. "Sure, but you could feel a little...how to say that..." she tries to explain. "Loopy?" Darren suggests. "High?" Joey added. The nurse pointed at Joey. "High. You could feel a little high" she chuckles. "I don't care, just give me some please. The pain is too strong" you whine as you put the ice cubes on one of your cheeks. She put on pain reliever on your catheter and leaves, leaving you with Darren and Joey that were now sitting beside you on chairs. After a few minutes, you started to feel what the nurse told you about. "Ooooh" you says to Joey. "Look, Darren is here" you exclaim as you pet your boyfriend's face. "You're so cute" you say as you pinch his cheeks. You heard Joey laughing besides you, as Darren chuckles. "You're so high right now" he says. "No, I'm not. I'm good. Life's good. Right Joey?" you ask him. "Hell yeah!" he laughs. Darren stood up from his chair and came closer to the bed, and gently strokes your face with loving eyes and a nice smile on his face, probably relieved the operation went well. You looked at him carefully and suddenly frown. "Did you ever consider auditioning for The Hobbit?" you say, very seriously. Darren chuckles as Joey bursts out laughing. "You will be such a good one" you add. "I will contact them tomorrow" Darren answers sacarstically. "Yes, do that" you say.

After a few hours, Joey left you and Darren in the room. You still felt a little weak, so the doctors didn't want to let you go home for now. "Move over" Darren says as he sits on the bed. You let him lay down next to you as he says "Come here". You put the iced cubes on his chest on a little pillow and put your head on it. "That's so cold" Darren whines. He put his arm around your waist, as your two bodies came closer, like you were forming one again. He put out his phone and you two played a few games, laughing and flirting 'til the doctors allowed you to go home. Darren was there everytime you needed after that, taking good care of you.
