"I'm not going. You can't make me."
"Kurt, you have to do this. We've had the appointment for weeks. I'm going to be there with you, and you'll be asleep so it won't hurt," he coaxed. Three weeks earlier Kurt had been having a bad toothache, and the dentist decided he needed to get his wisdom teeth taken out. "What are you scared about?"
"I'm not scared," he said quickly, crossing his legs on the couch. "It's just unnecessary. It doesn't hurt anymore."
"Even though it doesn't hurt doesn't mean it's all better." He sat down next to him and looked him in the eye. "It's gonna be okay, there's no reason for you to worry. Once we get home you'll be on pain medicine and you get to eat Jell-o and ice cream. You have to come on, though, or else we'll miss our appointment." Kurt sighed, obviously torn. He finally stood up and grabbed his coat. Blaine smiled and drove to the surgeon's office.
He was visibly nervous in the waiting room, but wasn't saying anything. Blaine took his hand and tried to relax him.
"You're gonna do just fine," he told him.
"Kurt Hummel," a nurse called out. Blaine got up and followed him to the back. Once he was situated in the chair and they took last minute x-rays, the dentist was ready to put him to sleep. He started to panic a little bit.
"Blaine, don't leave," he pleaded, grabbing onto his shirt. He peeled his fingers off his shirt and let him hold his hand.
"It's okay," he soothed. "You're okay." They were giving him general anesthesia because he had so much anxiety, so he wasn't going to feel a thing. They put the mask over his nose and his eyelids began to droop.
"Blaine," he moaned, fighting to stay awake.
"Close your eyes," he said. "I'll be here when it's over." Kurt was asleep, and he kissed is forehead before going back to the waiting room.
He wasn't too worried about him; he knew he wouldn't feel any pain and that the dentist knew what he was doing, but still.
After thirty minutes of sitting there all alone, the nurse let him go back to see him. He was sitting up in the chair with gauze stuffed in the back of his mouth. His eyes were only half open and unfocused.
"He did very good," the dentist informed him as he filled out his paperwork.
"Blaine?" Kurt asked, looking at him weirdly.
"Yeah, it's me," he said. "Ready to go home?"
"No," he answered seriously, pulling away from him.
"He'll be out of it for a couple hours," the nurse explained. "We'll get you a copy of care instructions for the next couple of days." Blaine nodded and helped Kurt stand up, but he couldn't seem to hold himself up.
"Kurt, you gotta walk. I can't carry you."
"Muh mouf hurts," he mumbled, starting to lisp a little bit.
"We'll get it you some medicine," he promised. "Come on." He practically had to drag him out to the front desk, where he signed him out and got a bottle of pain pills for him. He walked him out to the car and struggled to buckle him in when he was constantly squirming.
"Are you kidnapping me?" Kurt asked, wide-eyed.
"No, honey," he laughed. "We're going home. Sit back, we'll be there in a little bit."
"But 'm tired," he complained, having a hard time getting the words out due to the gauze.
"You can lie down once we're home," he said, focusing on driving carefully.
Kurt babbled endlessly the entire car ride. Blaine was relieved when he finally got him inside the apartment and settled on the couch. He let him take pain medicine and got him some ice cream to eat. He was knocked out for three hours, and was acting normal again when he woke up, but it seemed to be hurting a lot. Blaine got him an ice pack to put on his swollen cheeks and held his hand as he tried to doze off again.
"I don't remember the dentist's office," he murmured.
"You were still on some really strong medicine, that's why. Does it still hurt?"
"Can't feel anything."
"That's fine, that's what the ice is for," he told him. Kurt sighed and eventually closed his eyes. Blaine kept holding his hand and watched him as rested peacefully.
