"No, Blaine! No, no, NO!", Kurt was sitting in their bedroom, his back on the door. He was in tears, trying to keep Blaine out.
"Please, Kurt! Just let me in. We can talk about this.", Blaine was rattling at the door, bur Kurt was sitting in an angle Blaine would be unable to open.
"Nope, Blaine. I will not, I repeat, NOT talk about this. This is not debatable. I will not allow you to do it.", Kurt tried to keep the tears in. It was not only fear but anger that fueled this tears. He had read what about the procedure he was supposed to undergo with his dead tooth. He would not allow Blaine to do this. Right now it didn't hurt and if it didn't hurt for several weeks, why should it start again? He would not let Blaine do a freaking root canal if he wasn't in lethal pain. There was no chance of this happening.
"Kurt, come on. This is not that bad. It will not even hurt.", Blaine said in a calm voice.
"Why should I believe you? I read about it and everyone says it hurts. People say fillings don't hurt and my last one did, why would something everyone says feels bad would not hurt?", his voice was cracking.
"Can you just let me in? It's not like I would drag you to the office right now. Kurt, it's 11 pm, seriously. Just let us talk.", Blaine said, trying to get in again.
Kurt was just sitting there. He didn't want to talk to Blaine, but neither did he want to sit there, alone, for the whole night, making Blaine sleep on the couch. It was Kurt's issue, so Blaine shouldn't be the one suffering. And, apart from that, sitting in front of the door was not pleasant either. He was sliding away from the door. "Come in...".
Blaine opened the door slowly and Kurt was certain that Blaine was only doing it that careful to make sure he didn't insure Kurt. "I'm sorry. I should have told you. But I knew you would flip and therefore it would be better... You know I'm just sorry.", Blaine said and kissed Kurt on the lips. Kurt turned away. He felt disgusting and additionally he felt bad for making Blaine apologise. It was really Kurt being stupid and he knew it.
"Don't be...", Kurt said. He took Blaine's hand and pressed his lips on it. "I am being stupid."
"No, no, no... Kurt, you are not stupid", Blaine said reassuring. "You are afraid and you have every right to be. I would probably be afraid my self, if I didn't know what was going on. But let me tell you. This has been done by millions of people and it really isn't that bad. I mean I had one done and I didn't even-"
Kurt was interrupting, "You have had a root canal done?", he was shaking his head in disbelief. "When?"
Blaine smiled his unearthly beautiful smile "Not that long ago, actually. I broke a part of my tooth two years ago, when we went to the cinema, remember?" Kurt nodded. "I think I told you about it when you where driving me home from the treatment, but I guess you blocked that out, didn't you?"
Kurt nodded again, now smiling again. "And it didn't hurt?", he asked reluctantly.
Blaine grinned, shaking his head. "Absolutely not. A little pressure, nothing more. And you have no nerve in that tooth. I wouldn't need an injection, because you will not feel a thing."
Kurt looked at him still feeling a little concerned, his breathing not under control yet. But this made him feel a lot better. "And you are not saying that only for me to get to go with you?"
Blaine smiled again. "I would show it to you, but you couldn't tell the difference to the other teeth."
Kurt breathing evened out. "Is the assistant nice?", he asked.
Blaine laughed a little. "That is what you are worried about now?", he stocked Kurt's hair. "You know, I thought, if you want me to, I'd ask Nick. He finished last year and he specialises in endodontistry. He will over look it, so you don't have to fear that I am doing something wrong."
Kurt nodded. They were still friends with Nick and his husband Jeff and he would be happy to know that there was no one he didn't know helping. "I would be happy to have Nick assisting.", then, with a smile he said: "Even though, I don't fear you doing something wrong. I trust you!"
