NEED a Little!Jake thunderstorm fic after those headcanons! Poor baby 😖
You should've checked if it was going to storm tonight...
You bolt awake out of a dead sleep when you hear your little boy screaming for you from down the hall in his nursery as thunder cracks across the sky. "MOMMY! MAMA!" You bolt to his room and find Jacob sitting up in his crib, his bedhead wild and face red from sobbing. "It's okay baby, mama's here, you're okay. I know you're scared."
You walk toward the crib to pick him up and immediately smell the urine on him. "Did you have an accident bubby?" He nodded as he clung to you and pointed to his paw patrol pajama pants. "Sorry mama! Went potty!" He cried. "That's alright baby, that's why you have a pull up on. It's not a problem."
Jacob whimpered and hid his head in your shoulder as another loud boom of thunder sounded overhead. "Mmmm, mommy!" He whined. You rubbed Jacob's back and kissed his bedhead. "You're alright baby, momma's here. Momma won't let anything happen to you sweet boy. Here, can we change your bum? Your wet pants can't be very comfy..." Jacob whined and nuzzled your shoulder. "Come on baby, you don't want to get rashy do you?"
"Itchy..." Jacob whimpered as you laid him down on the changing table. "I know bubs," you turned to grab Jacob's favorite stuffy from the pee soaked crib. "Here, can you cuddle Muffin while mama changes you into a fresh diaper?" Jacob nodded and hugged his stuffed friend tight. "Good boy baby, it's okay, mama will be quick."
Thankfully you completed the change and picked Jacob back up before another burst of thunder was heard. "Alright baby, do you want a bottle to help you sleep?" He nodded. "Alright mister come on." You attempted to calm Jacob by bouncing him as you went the stairs. On a regular day, the bouncing would cause him to go into a giggle fit but he was too scared tonight. He just clutched your tear stained shirt and hid. "I know sweetheart, I know."
You expertly made the bottle one handed as Jacob watched from your hip. And that's when you heard it. You heard the electrical buzz and then everything went dark.
Jacob screeched in terror and pushed his face even deeper into your neck if that was even possible. "It's alright baby, the lights will be back on in a minute okay? You're safe baby, I promise. Here, can you hold onto your baba while momma gets her flashlight out?" Jake felt around for the bottle and clutched it tight as you turned on the flashlight on your phone, illuminating your way back to your bedroom.
Hopefully Jacob will be able to calm down in your bed. You slowly but safely got back to your bedroom and found Layla snoozing at the end of your bed. "Oh hi Layla, sorry about the bright light girl. Baby, look who it is, it's Layla." Jacob whined and waved at his puppy. "It's alright baby, she won't let anything happen to you either."
Thankfully as you were tucking Jacob into the bed, the lights turned back on and you cheered. "Yaaay baby we have light again!" Jacob sleepily blinked at you as he put the nipple of his bottle into his mouth. "I know baby, it's been a rough night huh... I'm gonna leave you here with Layla while I go grab your paci okay? Mama will be right back.."
When you came back minutes later with a clean paci for Jacob, you found Layla laying next to her buddy and Jacob sleepily running his fingers through her fur. "Guess what sweet boy, I think the storm is quieting down... do you want to watch a show for a little bit to calm down?" Jacob nodded and pushed his face into Layla's soft fur. "Layla, being such a good girl helping Jake huh?" You said as you pet the golden retriever and got into bed beside the boy.
"What do you want to watch honey?" You could tell Jacob was too tired to speak so you slowly went over the options and waited for him to point at the one he wanted. "That one? Smurfs?" He nodded. Jacob wordlessly took your hand as Layla laid between you two.
As the cartoon started, Jacob whined wanting to be close to you. "I know, Laya, can you lay down there?" You pointed and the golden listened, moving down to Jacob's feet so you could hold him. "Good girl.." You said as you pulled Jacob towards you and guided his head to your chest. "There you little one, is that better?" You asked, kissing his messy hair. He nodded as he abandoned his now empty bottle and put his paci in his mouth. "Let me that you have little milk monster." You grabbed the bottle and put it on the nightstand before getting comfy again.
"You can sleep bubba, mama and Layla are staying with you..." You whispered as Jacob heavily blinked. You ran your fingers over Jacob's forehead and into his hair. "Shhhh bubba, it's sleepy time for a certain little boy... yes you." You said as Jacob wordlessly pointed to himself. You gave Jacob a forehead kiss and he finally let himself sleep as you held him tight. "Goodnight my sweet boy."
