CHAPTER 13
A few days later, Lucia saw Nicole's name on the studio's electronic diary: she had made an appointment; Lucia already had everything she needed of her, so she immediately set to work on the case knowing that she would have to take advantage of the opportunity and not waste time: if Nicole had known beforehand what kind of treatment she was waiting for, she surely she would have run away.
Nicole arrived at the appointment: she was better, of course, and she could see it. She was dressed in a pair of very tight black leather pants, a pair of black over the knee boots with a 12cm heel. On top of her she wore a very tight top that left her belly uncovered and showed her piercing in her navel. She wore no bra and had her hair pulled back into a very high ponytail which she bared tattoos on her neck and back. There was a deafening silence as she entered her waiting room as they watched her take off her big black glasses and turn to the reception secretary.
Her turn came and her assistant accompanied her to the chair. Lucia smiled into the room and looked at Nicole with a hint of satisfaction.
<Hi dear Nicole, you look beautiful today! I know that you have already signed all the documents, now I would like to explain what we will do, but I would like you to wear the device today. I see that you are not wearing the mobile device, but it does nothing>
Nicole, beautiful as the sun, like a model on the cover of Vogue, remained silent, nodding her head and widening her eyes in an expression of terror;
<I'm not going to be like those nerdy high school girls, right? - Nicole said with a worried voice - will I be able to live as I have done until now?>
<I don't know what you mean by "nerdy girls", you know it will be a challenging path and you will have to show strength and courage, but above all a lot of discipline if you really want to go back to living well ... let's start? … Will I explain everything to you while I assemble your appliances?>
Lucia gave Nicole a mild sedative to calm her down while she worked.
<Now I will mount the bands on the back teeth: 4 above and 4 below. These will serve to anchor the entire device and will have tubes for extra oral tractions. I will now mount the metal brackets on all the upper and lower teeth, which will hold the arches in place. We cannot use ceramic brackets, as they are too delicate and your mouth needs more pressure. We need to create a bit of space both above and below, for this I will mount two expanders (one above and one below) that you will have to expand every night with the supplied key, maybe Marco can do it. - While he continued to fumble and Nicole remained silent - The most important problem, however, is your tongue pushing your front teeth. For this I am installing a tongue grid, needles that will force you to hold the tongue backwards in the correct position. With your mouth so full of metal, you will no longer be able to wear the mobile device but we must ensure that your jaw remains in the correct position. I am cleaning two pistons that connect the teeth above and below, you can open your mouth up and down, but you will not be able to move your jaw sideways: It is called the HERBST appliance. We are almost done, I put on the last bands and increase the traction of the arches. How do you feel? Do you want to see yourself in the mirror?>
Nicole instinctively said, <Yeeeeshhhhhhh ...> almost incomprehensibly, as she spat a few drops of saliva from her mouth. She immediately put her hand in front of her mouth and despite this she couldn't cover everything with one hand. She took the mirror in her hand and as she looked at herself she began to cry, soiling her whole face with the makeup she was draining.
<How will I do? She-she She said even more incomprehensibly - I can't go out like this, I can't eat, talk, kiss… it's hell. >
Lucia and her assistant remained silent, a little excited to see Nicole, the Amazon Nicole, so in trouble.
<Dear Nicole, you will see that it will not be hell, and that there are so many aspects of life that you can't even imagine. It is for your health, in the next few days you will begin to get used to it and your language will also improve. Of course, for a while you will not be able to sing for sure, you will have to pay attention to the foods you eat, to the hygiene of your teeth, you will have to be careful during your sexual intercourse, and the pain will also decrease. You know that I had braces on my teeth, even my treatment was challenging, but now I have a perfect smile and my teeth are fine. You will also need to wear this headgear, but only when you are at home, and all night, at least 12 hours a day. It starts at 4 hours today, then increases the hours until next week. I'll show you how to put them on and off. This is also something that Marco can do, you have to find a new complicity>
Nicole was shocked. Her mouth looked huge and she couldn't cover all the metal with her lips. Herbst's piston marks were clear on her cheeks. For the first time Nicole did not show her breasts out of her, on the contrary, she tended to cover it with her arms as a sign of shame. Whenever she tried to say something, she couldn't hold back her tears, and she had to repeat each word slowly over and over to make herself understood. She went out into the waiting room full of people, two guys looked at her and remained shocked as soon as their gaze stopped to stare at Nicole's mouth and her embarrassment was total.
Marco was in the waiting room. He was petrified at the sight of Nicole ... he approached her and in an awkward way and not knowing what to do with her, he placed her lips on her face bow trying to give her a kiss, without saying anything.
In the following weeks Nicole did not have the courage to leave the house. She only went to work in the family business where she locked herself in her room without receiving anyone. Talking about her on the phone was almost impossible, no one could understand her and she was so embarrassed. She went to the studio for checks, and Lucia was the only person she could talk to Nicole with. The expander of her lower palate was the one that bothered her the most in eating, while the needles of her lingual grid created the greatest problems with her language.
Lucia told her that she had to practice, otherwise her language would never get better. She that she had to have the courage to go out and not hide; that people would notice her embarrassment more about her than her braces or her speech.
For the first time Nicole was listening, she had thought several times to remove all the device, but Marco had managed to convince her not to. In fact Nicole was becoming much more attached to Marco and certainly, as expected, she did not see and no longer hear her young instructor in the gym. She had changed gym, she used the phone a lot less now.
Marco's plan had perhaps really worked. Nicole was always beautiful, but she could no longer be arrogant. She began to notice the people who would really love her, those not interested only in her boobs and her butt. She began to discover the kindness she had never known before her.
That treatment was definitely changing her teeth, but she was changing her character, probably for the better.
One evening Marco and Nicole came to our house for dinner. We had been drinking quite a bit and were telling them how Lucia and I played with our braces because we realized that their sexual intercourse was not going very well. Lucia went upstairs to our secret room and returned with our fake braces (she knew that deep down in an orthodontist's house it wouldn't be so strange to have this kind of family heirlooms), we put them on and we start kissing more and more passionately in front to the curious gaze of Marco and Nicole. They were amazed at how complicit we were and how we played with our machines. It was then that Lucia looked at me with her usual mischievous look, she turned to Marco and said:
<do you want to try to kiss me? And you, Nicole, do you want to try kissing my husband? >
Marco and Nicole looked at each other in amazement, even though the discussion and alcohol had already raised everyone's levels of excitement. Just a few months ago, Nicole would have rushed without hesitation, now she was waiting shyly for Marco's opinion. Marco let Lucia take her hands (after all, resisting Lucia was impossible) and let himself be carried away by her. Nicole got up from the sofa, placed the goblet of red wine on the table and brought her metallic mouth to mine. I brought my index finger of her to her swollen lips, brushing her face before her in correspondence with the HERBST marks then passing it over her device. I began to touch Nicole's tongue by wedging my finger between her tongue and her grill, touching her needles with my fingertip. I began to kiss her fearlessly, running my tongue over her device, her lower expander, searching for her tongue between the needles of her grill.
For me and for Lucia it was all so natural, and Marco and Nicole were realizing that they could do much more than they thought despite Nicole's device.
Obviously we didn't go any further with sex, even if Nicole's fake breasts and that huge appliance were much more than a temptation. We sat on the sofa and went back to drinking some good red wine. We had helped Marco and Nicole to be more accomplices, to see the game even where it seems impossible. Of course, they had not become passionate about braces, but that night they learned not to give up their intimacy, Nicole realized that she can be attractive even as a nerd, even with the braces she had always despised. Marco began to kiss Nicole on the sofa, discovering with her mouth, with her fingers, with her tongue every piece of the huge device.
Needless to say, we spent that night with Lucia in our secret room, she wearing a lingual mesh retainer (yes, I couldn't get it off my head…) and my milwaukee torso and I wearing my fake HERBST braces.
<Nicole is a really beautiful woman, and now she is a beautiful person too. I think we'll be really friends after tonight. - Lucia said trying to move her tongue through her grid - I should ask her for some advice on fake boobs, maybe I'll do a little thought>
I sat on top of her, motionless with her milwaukee torso on, holding her wrists up on the bed, I approached her with my mouth, then I began to kiss her neck between the metal collar and under the chin guard, then her breasts, passing the tongue around the central bar of his torso ...
<when you want it will be your choice and I will be by your side - I said - but I think we will have to look for a real artist to make these breasts better than they are now ...>
And we fell asleep.
