Finally, time to floss these sharp looking teeth. Kennedy took a more firm hold on the floss and carefully pulled it back and forth between each tooth and made sure he didn't over do it. No bloody gums for his plant. He repeated that on the bottom teeth and made sure that he didn't miss any spot. After he was done with that he took another piece of floss and began doing the top. This was actually very calming. Maybe he would volunteer to help floss plants' teeth.
The boy looked up and caught John thinking. Hard. That was bad. John only thought REAL hard when he was up to something. Kennedy stepped closer to the piranha, ready to become a plant shield if needed be. He was obviously oblivious to John's real thoughts. Kennedy set the worn out floss on the table and looked over at the instructions.
Brushing. Interesting.
He turned to John and said, "You want to give it a go?" Kennedy said, grinning with a hint of mischief in his eyes, and gestured
John look at Kennedy, the toothbrush, the plant and back at Kennedy. He was so excited to brush the sharp teeth, that he felt like he was going to pee his pants. He felt like a little kid, given the chance to do something only grown-ups could because it was considered 'dangerous.'
He nodded
"Heck yeah, I do!" John beamed as he had that mischievous look on his face again. He still had one hand on the plant to hold it in position. He first gently began brushing the teeth and quickened his pace as he went along to the other teeth.
"I'm so good at brushing teeth, just look at mine they're gorgeous!" he teased
"and not to mention the cool gap I have!" at first he didn't like the small gap he had between his two front teeth but eventually, he warmed up to it.
He continued with brushing the plants icky teeth.
Maybe I should toss a mint in its mouth, while I'm here? The lion thought to himself. To him this was a genius idea...or not? Who knew? Hehe.
