Hello everyone! Welcome to chapter 11! This is kind of a short filler chapter. But a brief explanation will be at the end as to why i put this chapter up. Thank you all for the support for this story and hope you enjoy this chapter :)
Max's Pov- "Mommy i'm scared." Zoey sobbed.
I picked her up from her seat that was next to me and sat her down in my lap. "There's nothing to be afraid of Zoey." I said while rubbing the tears off her cheeks with my sleeve. "This happens a lot. Your going to be fine I promise."
Zoey sniffled a bit then hugged me.
It was the middle of December and a couple of day's ago Zoey was complaining about her vision starting to become a bit blurry. So I decided to take her to see an eye doctor. Worst case scenario she'll need glasses. Zoey was terrified because she thought she was going blind.
"Zoey Caulfeild!"
Well that was us. "Come on Zoey. The doctor will make you feel all better." I set her down and stood up and held her hand as we followed the nurse.
"He will?" Zoey asked hopefully.
I smiled and nodded. "Yes he will."
The nurse opened one of the room doors. "Please step in and have a seat on the chair and the doctor will be right with you."
"Thank's." We walked in and the nurse closed the door behind us. "Alright sweetie you get to have the big comfy chair."
Zoey beamed. "Yay!" She hopped on it and sat down. 'What's this?" She asked reaching for the eye examiner that was set up by the chair.
"Zoey don't touch that. It's very expensive." I said a bit sternly after sitting in the guest chair in the corner of the room.
She quickly sat back down and looked around. "Mommy what's that?"
I saw her point to the little white sheet on the wall with rows of letters. "That's an eye test sweetie."
"...What's that?"
I sighed. Knowing this was going to be one of those. 'What's that.' Sessions. "That's a rolling tray for the doctor."
"What's that?"
I was saved when the door opened and the doctor came in. "Morning Miss. Claufeild." He greeted and shut the door.
"Morning Doctor."
He sat down on his chair. "Now what seems to be the problem?"
I decided to speak since Zoey is a little bit nervous. "She's been saying her vision's been getting a bit blurry lately."
The doctor rolled his chair next to Zoey and pulled the eye examiner down to her level. "Well let's see what we have going on."
Zoey whimpered a bit. "Zoey it's not going to hurt you I promise." I said trying to relax her.
"Your mother is right. I promise it won't bit. Just put your chin on the padded part right here and it will be over before you know it." The doctor replied.
Zoey cautiously did as she was told and the doctor got to work. A couple minutes later he pulled the device away from her. He rolled his chair to his desk and grabbed a tiny bottle. "Has she ever had her eye's dilated before?"
I shook my head. "No she hasn't...Oh" Oh great this is going to be like her first shot all over again. I sighed as I stood up and walked over to the other side of the chair and held her hand. "Zoey the doctor is going to put some drops in your eyes and it's going to sting. Just stay relaxed and squeeze mommy's hand alright?'
Zoey shifted nervously. "O..Ok."
The doctor reclined the chair back a bit and hovered the little bottle above her left eye. "Alright this will sting for only a moment. Try not to cry or we'll have to do it again. Alright?"
Zoey silently nodded.
I bit my lip as the doctor carefully squeezed the bottle. I prepared myself for the outburst that was about to come. I watched as the tiny droplet fell out of the bottle and landed right into Zoey's eye.
I'm going to save myself even more embarrassment by not going into to much details about what happened after that moment. Let's just say it took me and the nurse to hold her down for the second eye.
Now we were waiting for the drops to kick in with her in my lap. Zoey both upset and slightly angry. "You didn't say it would hurt so much mommy..."
I sighed and held her closer. "I'm sorry sweetie. But the hard part is over with I promise."
She just kept silent. Pouting in my lap as she held a tissue to her right eye. A few minutes later we were called back into the office and the doctor gave her the exam. When he was done he jotted down some notes and spun his chair to face me. "Her eye's are fine but she will need prescribed glasses."
Zoey made a cute little gasp. "Glasses? Eww I don't want glasses mommy. Please don't make me wear them."
"Zoey your going to need them to see." I replied then turned back towards the doctor. "Thank you doctor."
"No problem at all. Good luck." He gave me the written prescription and left the room.
"Mommyyyyyyyyyy I don't want stupid glasses." Zoey whined.
"Sorry sweetie but your going to have to."
She crossed her arms and pouted. "This is hella stupid."
I glared at her. "Zoey Claufeild watch your mouth young lady."
She didn't say a word as we left the office. "This is going to be a headache for a while."
I was back home doing an assignment for one of my classes when Chloe came in. "Hey babe! Studying hard I see." She sat next to me on the sofa and gave me a quick kiss.
"Yup. It's about all I do anymore." I answered.
She chuckled and glanced around. "Where's the little ankle biter?"
I sighed. "She's pouting in her room. She had to get glasses today."
Chloe started laughing. "Hahaha! Oh I got to see this." She stood up from the couch and headed for Zoey's room. "Zoey come say hi to mama!"
"No! I look like a big nerd!" Zoey yelled from behind her closed door.
Chloe chuckled again then replied. "But being a nerd is the coolest thing ever. Your mom and I were the biggest nerds around back in the day. So was aunt Ember."
"...Really?"
"Yup. Now come on out of there. Mama needs a hug."
I watched the door slowly open and Zoey peeked around the door. Her new black frame glasses now in view. Chloe smiled and picked her up. "Super nerdy. But super cute too!"
Zoey blushed then whined. "Mama! Your embarrassing me again."
"That's what i'm best at munchkin." Chloe teased then spun her around. Now turn that frown upside down!"
Zoey smiled and started laughing. "Stop it mama. I'm getting dizzy."
"Best girlfriend ever. Hopefully sometime soon. More than that."
(A.n) I wanted to give Zoey glasses so I put this chapter up to show when and how she got them and how she reacted. Anyway hope to see you all in the next chapter. Have a nice day :)
