"Hey Shawn! How are you, man?" Dr. Stevens said while taking a seat in the other swivel chair.
"Doing well, how about you?" Shawn answered. They continued talking for a minute or two while I transferred the x-rays onto the monitor. When I finished, I motioned for Dr. Stevens to come over and look at the results. I explained to him that everything looked fine except I had concerns about his third molars, or wisdom teeth, and that they possibly needed to be removed. At first, he seemed surprised but after seeing the x-rays, he agreed. The x-rays showed that his back molars were being pushed forward due to the position of his wisdom teeth. The sooner we could remove them, the better.
"Okay, Shawn, I am going to lean you back now." Dr. Stevens said while putting on some gloves and a mask. I took a seat in one of the swivel chairs, moving out of Dr. Stevens way, and positioned myself next to Shawn. As the big dental chair started to move down, Shawn turned and looked at me. I saw a grin appear on his face which, once again, made me blush. When Shawn was parallel to the floor, Dr. Stevens rolled over with the tray of tools.
"Open nice and wide for me Shawn. I am just going to do a final check." Dr. Stevens said. Shawn opened his mouth and I moved over to help assist. I grabbed the suction and waited for Dr. Stevens' signal. Every now and then he would nod his head, telling me he needed suction, and I would come help. As Dr. Stevens was examining everything, my eyes wandered down to Shawn's body. His light breathing made his stomach rise and fall but he was perfectly still. His broad shoulders were almost too big for the chair and I could see his muscles through his shirt. I looked back up to his head. His jawline was perfect and he had pretty eyes. I couldn't help but get this weird feeling inside of me. Do I like him?
All of sudden, Dr. Stevens stood up, taking his mask and gloves off. The dental chair started to raise and I was snapped back to reality. "Looking great Shawn but unfortunately we do need to remove those wisdom teeth. Rachel here will talk you through it and get you all set up. I'll see you in a few weeks then." Dr. Stevens said while walking towards the door. "Okay thanks Dr. Stevens." Shawn said quickly. And with that, the two of us were alone.
