Sophie, 22, was in her second year of dental school, and she was currently in Dr. Harry Styles, 28, class. Today, she was in her clinical class, and they were practicing giving local anesthesia. "Okay, so basically, you'll perform it on your partner, and then they'll practice it on you. Easy!" Dr. Styles said as they all went to their stations to practice. Sophie mentally prepared to give her partner the anesthesia, and she did it carefully. "Great job!" Dr. Styles said as she executed it perfectly without any problems. "Thank you!" she said and then her partner patted the chair for her turn. Sophie froze in place as she thought about it being her turn. Sophie was terrified of needles, and she definitely didn't want to do it, but she sat down anyways.
"Okay, ready?" her partner asked as she picked up the needle. "No!" Sophie spurted out anxiously. Her heart was pounding, and her breathing was raged. Dr. Harry Styles watched in surprise as the whole thing went down. Sophie started crying, and trying to get out of having to do it. "Here, let me do it really quick, and then it'll be over," her partner said as they were running out of time in class. Her partner quickly injected Sophie, and Sophie started crying even more. She started having a full blown panic attack, and Dr. Styles watched sympathetically, and somewhat confused. After the horrific scene finished, Dr. Styles looked at Sophie's red and puffy face, and decided what to do. "Sophie, can I talk to you in my office once class has ended?" Dr. Styles asked her without any explanation, and she nodded.
After class ended, Sophie headed to Dr. Styles office. As she knocked on the door, she saw that Dr. Styles was still in his scrubs, and he was standing at the counter doing something. "Come in, and lay down in the chair for me, please," he told her as she came in. She slipped into the chair confused as to what was going on, and she noticed he was laying out some tools. After a few minutes, he came and sat down in the stool next to the dental chair. "So, how are you?" he asked smiling. "I'm good, how are you?" she asked back still confused. "I'm good! How are you doing with dental class?" he asked her. "I'm doing okay, just makes me a little nervous when it's my turn for needles, I guess," she admitted twiddling her thumbs. "I understand, I was nervous at first too. How is everything else going?" he asked her. They chatted for several minutes, and he asked her a lot about her life, and different things. "Alright, well, you're probably wondering why I called you in here. I believe I can help you overcome your fear of needles. Can I do a check-up on you?" Dr. Styles offered. "Yes, that's fine," Sophie agreed hesitantly. "Okay, so I'm just going to look for now," Dr. Styles said as he grabbed his tools to check her teeth. "Great!" he said after he finished looking. "Okay, now if you're okay with it, I'm going to give you a shot," he said picking up the syringe. "Um...," Sophie said getting nervous all over again. "I-I don't know," she said as he looked at her for an answer. "I don't think I can," she said as tears started rolling down her face. "Of course you can, love," he smiled at her comfortingly. Before Sophie could get ahold of her emotions, she was starting to panic and hyperventilate again. "I-I can't," she said through sobs. "Hey, it's alright!" he said laying the needle down. "I won't hurt you! I promise you can trust me! I'm gentle and go really fast!" he said as he put a hand on her shoulder to reassure her. "It's okay! You can do it! I know how nerve wracking it is, relax," he said and smiled at her. Sophie noticed how he was looking into her eyes, and she started to believe him. She almost got lost in his eyes, and noticed how attractive he really was. Harry noticed how she seemed to calm down, and he also noticed how pretty she was as he looked into her eyes. "Okay! You ready?" he asked as she calmed down. "I think so," she said ready to let him do it. "Okay, so all I'm going to do is inject this into your gum. You'll feel a little tiny prick, and then it'll be over," he explained to her as he picked up the syringe. Dr. Styles explained everything to her as he did it, and she made it through with just a few tears running down her face. "Thank you, Dr. Styles," she said as he finished up. "No problem! How about we start doing this three times a week, and you'll be over this fear in no time?" he offered and she thought for a few seconds. "Okay," she agreed after knowing she could trust him. "Thanks again, Dr. Styles," she said getting up and preparing to walk out. "Call me Harry," he smiled as she walked out the door.
Before she knew it, it was time to go back and get another injection again. The first few times she would have some panic and would cry, but Harry would reassure her like always, and she eventually stopped crying and got to where she could take it like a champ. After about a month, Sophie finally beat her fear of needles thanks to the help of Harry, and she also got a boyfriend out of it. Harry and her started going on dates, and before she knew it they were in love. She was absolutely the happiest person, and loved that she had such an awesome person as a boyfriend!
