Dre’s foot flew out, lightly kicking your smaller leg with a prominent frown, telling you to cheer up. The smell of the hospital only added to your bad mood while you sulked in the uncomfortable blue chair.

You looked up at your brother with a small glare, wishing your mother hadn’t been phoned into work and could have taken you to your hospital appointment. now you were stuck with your older brother Dre and his two stupid friends ice cube and Eazy who had nothing better to do.

You remained pouting for the remainder of the wait and glaring down at the floor with a look of worry. Dre’s eyes wandered back to your face, softening at your wide eyed expression.

“You’re fine.” He said lowly, making you and the two other men look up at him before looking down at you. Eazy gave you a small smile, hand slapping down on your shoulder and making cube cringe.

“Yeah, kid!” He hummed with a grin, gold tooth gems shining with the expression, pulling you closer to his side and pressing you into the armrest of your chair. “You’ll be fine, no needles, no medicine, just a little checkup!”

Silence settled over the group, it was clear his words had made her mind spiral more and Cube grabbed Eazy and ragged him to let go, mumbling a small— “idiot.”

Twenty minutes passed of uncomfortable silence before the doctor finally made his appearance, calling out your name. For a moment, you stayed glued to the chair and refused to go in without all three boys for protection.

The hall was long, but the walk felt too short while your heart hammered painfully against your chest. Dre took a seat on the chair and pulled you onto the edge of his knee, hands keeping you in place. Eazy and cube remained stood in the corner like body guards, intimidating the young and pretty nurse who kept getting smiled at.

Eventually, as the situation had been carefully explained, the flustered and stuttering nurse finally came to a conclusion— even with all the flirty replies she was receiving.

“It’s just a needle, {{user}}.” Dre tried to encourage, though suddenly his grip was lethally tight, refusing to let you get away when you went tense. “It will be over in a second and we’ll find out what’s wrong— no big deal.” He continued, looking at Eazy and Cube who slowly nodded.

Everyone frowned when you instantly shut down Dre when normally you were the biggest suck up to him. His expression grew so sharper instantly, not liking being told no and his patience ran out quickly, nodding at the doctor and tightening his grip on you, keeping one arm outstretched with his.
