The Dentist

I hated my mom for make me doing this. She sat next to me in the waiting room. Like I was four or something. "Don't worry honey. Dr. Smith may have a new partner but I will discuss as long as it takes so you get Dr. Smith. I don't want you to be even more scared." She gave me a kiss on the cheek. Yes. I am scarred. But an old man who looks like Dracula won't help my fear of dentists. The door opened and an friendly looking women walked up to us. "I'm really sorry Mrs. Aldrin. You would have to wait untill five to see Mr. Smith. He has an really problematic case... but our new doctor Mr. Jonas..." "No! We wait untill five." My mom interupt her. "Mom... I'm fine with that... if we wait untill 5 I'm probatly going to faint..." i said standing up and slowly walking to the room. The nurse opend the door and placed me on the chair. My mom sitting down on an chair in the edge of the room. "Are you sure honey? We could wait for Mr. Smith..." my mom said as the nurse left. "Yes." I said not looking at her. I was 19 and my mom still had to come in the room with me... embarrasing. A young man entered the room. To young to be an dentist. "Hi I'm Mr. Jonas..." he shook my moms hand and then his eyes met mine. "You are (y/n), right?" I nodded. He smiled and sat down on the chair next to me. He was really handsome. His brown eyes, his lips, his dark brown curls. He could be an model or an actor but not an dentist. "You don't have to be afraid. I'll just look at your teeth ok?" He looked to my mom. "Can I ask you to leave? I think the presence of her mom makes (y/n) even more nervous..." he was really nice to her but my mom only snapped an "ok" back and left. "Did I insult her?" He asked looking at me surprised. I shook my head. "Don't you want to talk to me?" He smiled. "Uhm... i don't know." I looked at my legs. "Ha! She talked!" He smiled. "See I'm not that bad as you think!" I had to laugh. "Oh look even an laugh" he was different from other dentists. He had time for me. Talked to me without hundred of things in my mouth. "Soo... why are you afraid of dentists?" His eyes met mine again. He was probatly just a few years older than me. "How old are you?" I hated my brain for making me ask this. In the first moment he was surprised. "23... why?" "Arent you to young to be an dentist?" I started to shake. "Well I'm pretty smart." He smiled with his teeth. He wasnt a typical dentist... his teeth weren't perfect. I caughed myself staring at his teeth and looked away embarresed. "Whats wrong?" He looked at me. "Nothing... can we please start now... i want to get it over..." "ok... look i know how you feel... I am afraid of dentists too..." he placed his hand on my leg. "Everything is going to be ok... nothing will hurt..." i looked as his hand as he slowly started to stroke my leg. "Look... i know it's ironic that i am a dentist now... sometimes i look in the mirror and scare myself to death" i laughed and looked at him. "That was an bad joke." "I know." He smiled with his teeth again. "Alright... let me look at your teeth and then we repair everything so you have an even more beautiful smile... plus you can kiss your boyfriend without hesitation" he slipped in his cloves. "I don't have a boyfriend..." i didn't know why I said this. "Well... we could fix that too..." he smiled.

*****

"Was it that bad?" He smiled at me as I slowly woke up. My head feeling dizzy. "No..." i managed to say. "Look..." he started as the nurse left the room to get my mom. "I had some time to think about the whole boyfriend thing. And... I'm just 3 years older... so..." my mom came in before he could finish. "Is everything ok honey?" She walked up to me ignoring Mr. Jonas. He stood up and went to get something to write. I nodded but couldn't get my eyes of him. "Mr. Jonas... can she have an brace? Her teeth need it." My mom looked at him using the time i could barely defend myself. "She won't get anything she doesn't want. She'll be even more afraid if you force her to do something she doesn't even need." Again. He did it again. My mom probatly wanted to kill him. "How long will you need?!" She looked at him. "Need to do what?" He asked surprised and walked to us. "To do the brace thing." She wouldn't let anyone have an different opinion than her. "Would you leave me and (y/n) alone now?!" He got angry. Probatly he had to deal with a lot moms. My mom left and he let himself fall on his chair. "What did you wanted to say...?" I looked at him. His eyes met mine and he smiled. "Would you go on an date with me?" I had to smile. "Yes.." he took my hand and kissed it softly. I'll give you my number right after I destroyed your moms plan with the brace." He said leaving the room. I sat there for a few minutes untill he came in with Dracula and my mom. "Dr. Smith will know that a brace is the best for her." My mom said as dracula looked at my teeth. "I am sorry but (y/n) doesn't need an brace." He looked at my mom who pulled me out of the chair. Dr. Jonas smiling because he won his little war against my mom. I went out with my mom walking slowly to the car. "(y/n) wait!" Dr. Jonas ran to us. "You forgot something important." He said while placing a card in my hand. "See you..." he smiled walking back into the building.

I smiled at the card. Nicholas Jerry Jonas. His number was under his name. Suddenly million of questions poped in my head. Does he prefer to be called Nicholas or Jerry? Should I call him? Should I... "(y/n) whats that honey?" My mom asked. "My next appointment to see the dentist" i said smiling.
