Hope you are all well! Much love!
Niall and Liam had been enjoying some time off from tour, and Niall had been having some terrible mouth pain. Niall tried to keep this to himself, because he hated the dentist, and knew Liam would make him go. Well, it didn't take long for Liam to figure out what was going on, and make Niall go to the dentist. At the appointment, Niall learned that he was going to need his wisdom teeth removed, and here they were a week later, ready to go to the appointment. "Niall, it's time to go," Liam said to his boyfriend as he checked the time. "I know, Liam," Niall said as he pulled a jacket on. "It's going to be alright," Liam said as he went over to hug his boyfriend, who he knew was extremely nervous. Niall hugged Liam back, and breathed in his calming scent. "Alright, let's go," Liam smiled at Niall, and then they left for the office.
Niall's stomach churned when they parked the car in the parking lot, and it was all Niall could do to keep himself from running away. Liam grabbed Niall's hand as they met at the other side of the car, and they walked hand in hand into the building. Niall shakily signed himself in, and then they waited in the waiting room. Liam watched Niall's knee bouncing up and down, him biting his nails, and the fear written all over his face. Liam gently took Niall's hand away from his mouth, and held it in his. "You're okay," Liam smiled at Niall as he got his attention. "I don't want to do this, Li," Niall said as he started to tear up. "Niall, you're going to be just fine," Liam said stroking some of the hair off Niall's forehead. Before anything else could be said, an assistant opened the door. "Niall Horan?" she said with a smile, and Liam stood and helped Niall up, keeping a firm hand on his back to ensure he didn't try to bolt. "You'll be in the room at the end of the hall," she said pointing. "The dentist will be right in," she added as they walked into the room, and Liam thanked her. Niall took a seat in the dental chair, and he shifted uncomfortably as he looked at all of the tools on the tray. Niall's heart started pounding, and Liam could tell he was getting worked up again.
Liam moved over to the seat closest to Niall, and right then the dentist and an assistant walked in. "Hey boys!" he greeted as he and the assistant took a seat, and started getting prepared to perform the surgery. "Hey!" Liam welcomed and Niall sat quietly as Liam rubbed a thumb over his knuckles. "How are you, guys?" he asked as he put on some gloves. "Pretty good. Niall here is a little nervous," Liam answered for them both. A little was an understatement though. Niall felt like his heart was about to pound out of his chest. "Okay, so we are just going to start with giving you an IV," the dentist said, and that's when Niall lost it. "No, I can't do this," Niall said going to get out of the chair. "Not so fast, Ni," Liam said gently putting Niall back into the chair. "Just relax. Focus on me," Liam said as tears began to run down Niall's face. "I can't do this, please let me up," Niall said frantically trying to get out of his boyfriend's gentle but firm grip. "Ni, calm down, baby. I'm right here, look at me," Liam said as he caught his boyfriend's attention. "Sit back, you're okay," Liam said as Niall hesitantly leaned back in the chair again. "Let's go quickly," the dentist said and motioned for the assistant to get the IV started. "Hold my hand, and focus on me love," Liam said as Niall started to squirm. He held Niall's hand while keeping a cautious grip on the boy with his other arm. "Take a deep breath," Liam said and after a quick poke, the needle was in. "See, not so bad," the assistant smiled as Niall relaxed slightly, but he was still shaking like a leaf. "Keep breathing deep and focusing on me, love," Liam instructed. "It won't be long now, and you'll fall asleep, so go ahead and say your goodbyes now," the dentist said as he leaned Niall's seat back a little further. "Liam," Niall said grabbing Liam's arm as he went to stand up. "I'm not leaving, Ni. Just standing up to get out of their way. I promise, I'll be here until you fall asleep, and I'll be here the second you wake up. Close your eyes, and think about what makes you happy," Liam said still holding Niall's hand as he watched Niall's eyelids start to droop. "I love you," Niall said after a few seconds. "I love you too, Niall!" Liam said and then Niall fell asleep thinking about Liam. "Alright, we will get started! I'll have him out in just a bit! Don't worry, he's in good hands!" the dentist said and Liam nodded. "Okay, thank you!" Liam said before leaving to go sit in the waiting room.
