Warnings: Fluff, daddy ackles, mentions of anxiety and panic attacks
Summary: [Y/N]s having a difficult time handling a morning in the Ackles household, but Jensen’s always there to help
A/N: just wrote this because feeling sensitive and needed some fluff and daddy ackles is my fave <3 ALSO by writing/posting this i’m gonna be so sharp for work, oops lol, another claim i need to put in against jensen😂
Mornings were always hectic in the Ackles household, two parents who hated mornings trying to feed and dress themselves, twin two year old rockets and a firecracker five year old, hectic didn’t even begin to cover it. With three young children the residence was rarely calm or quiet, and near impossible for the adults to have uninterrupted time together, let alone a short conversation, may that be ten at night or two in the morning.
A burning sensation ripped through [Y/N]s muscles flaring up newly discovered aches while her neck and shoulders took the full brunt of the brutal attack. The night had been rough and the parents sleep had been repeatedly disrupted as the twins had a restless night. Jelly legs barely supported [Y/N] as she stood at the kitchen counter surrounded by an array of food and kids as a vicious black cloud descended on her. A basic headache threatened to spill over into a migraine.
“But I don’t want that,” Jade stomped her feet on the tiled kitchen floor, her face twisted in an unhappy frown and arms folded across her chest.
“You’re not getting three packets of Cheetos for your lunch,” [Y/N] fought to keep her tone soft when inside she was cussing to the heavens. Today was just one of those days where everything was overwhelming, Jade who’s typically great, was being bratty and grating at her moms already frayed nerves.
“Mommy,” Finlay tugged at Jensens shirt that [Y/N] borrowed off the floor that morning, she was rushed back to memories of a few hours prior, in bed with Jensen, naked, his lips tickled her neck while his hand danced down her body, then the kids barged in. “Mommmmmy!” Finlay said louder yanking her away from the blissful moment and launching her back to reality.
God give me strength she prayed silently. “Baby shark gimmie a minute buddy, I’m making Jades lunch.”
“But mommy,” Finlay whined at a frequency that pierced through her skull.
“I’m not taking lunch,” Jade huffed and puffed like the wolf from Three Little Pigs.
“Fine then don’t,” [Y/N] sighed heavily as her tired watery eyes searched for her husband. “Jensen!” She called desperate for a quiet moment to escape the rising panic bubbling in her chest.
“Mommy-”
“Finlay what is it?” It took all her might to not shriek at him, however her tone was too sharp as anxiety and resentment spread like wildfire through her veins. “Jensen!” She shouted again as Jade continued to ramble on.
“Up,” Finlay said raising his arms.
“I can’t right now, we need to get Jade to school baby.” As if she had taken his favourite toy away Finlay burst into tears and wailed at ear piercing levels that penetrated her eardrums. “JENSEN!” [Y/N] cried over her toddler and five year old daughter.
Jensen dashed into the room almost immediately with Roe facing the floor in his arms pretending she was a plane, her light brown pigtails bounced and a giggle burst from her mouth as she clutched her dads arm.
“What’s going on?” His deeper daddy tone grabbed everyones attention, even Roes.
A moment of silence surrounded [Y/N], she inhaled deeply and took a second to catch the sobs in her throat before saying “Please just-” her brows knotted creating deep grooves in her skin. She looked at her husband pathetically, “help.”
“Jade go get your shoes-” Jensen organised.
“But da-”
“I’ll take you to school in Baby if you hurry.”
Jades eyes widened, she glared at Jensen then to [Y/N] to find out if that could happen, [Y/N] nodded gently and Jade bolted to find her shoes. Jensen crossed the room in a totally normal way that had his agitated wife crunching her own lip and clenching her thighs together. His broad rounded shoulders and firm biceps advanced closer and her breath hitched when he stood mere inches from her, Roe reaching out to clip her moms nose between soft baby fingers. Finlay insisted on grabbing at the shirt and moaning but [Y/N] was encapsulated by Jensens sprinkling of freckles and glowing green eyes, his presence alone calmed her nerves, each step closer his warmth cradled her. Dipping down he bumped his forehead against hers.
“You okay?” He asked with soft eyes.
“No,” she replied sharply. “Jade is being a brat, Fin won’t leave me alone and he needs changed again, I haven’t showered yet and I’ve gotta do laundry, clean the car, I need to go shopping and, and-” her teeth rutted together, “I’m fucking frustrated!” She clearly was on edge as she usually avoided swearing in front of the kids.
“Well, I’ve already dealt with Jade.” He smirked proudly. “I’ll change Fin, then I’ll take the twins to drop Jade off at school so you can catch a breather, and once I’m home I’ll help fix your frustration issue.”
“Jensen don’t tease like that.”
“I’m not teasing,” he made a clicking sound with his mouth and winked in a way that tickled her core.
“Fuck, I love you,” she said adoringly while lifting on her tip toes and pressing her lips to his, she slightly opened her mouth and snagged his bottom lip between hers. The devastating storm brewing above her was slightly alleviated by his proposal and the clouds parted enough creating faint gaps for the light and love to pierce through and tickle her skin. Overcome with need and the comfort of his heat and embrace, her hands grabbed his face as she pushed her lower half against his flaccid dick while moaning into his mouth, her hands trailed down the sides of his long length heading for his crotch.
Gently clutching her wrist he reluctantly broke their kiss. “Easy tiger,” Jensen gingerly smirked.
Without knowing it [Y/N] stomped her feet mimicking Jade. “It’s not fair,” she complained.
“Wow who knew I had four kids,” his tender smirk turned sly. Swatting his bicep [Y/N] lowered her heels and dropped a few inches with a delicate smile and only devotion displayed in her eyes.
Jade barrelled into the kitchen with pink sneakers in her hands. “I wear these ones,” she announced proudly.
“Good choice,” Jensen said. “Mommy will help you. Right Fin c’mon little man lets get you changed.” Jensen confidently held Roe in one arm as he gently wrapped his gigantic hand around his sons forearm.
“Nooooo,” Finlay wailed and clutched his free arm around [Y/N]s leg as Jensen attempted to guide him away. The toddlers shrieks engulfed the room, sure to shatter glass if not tamed. “Mommy, mommy.”
“Shut up Finlay, you’re such a baby!” Jade shouted.
“Oi,” [Y/N] directed, harsher than she meant at Jade. A lump formed in her throat and her eyes watered, the racket wrapped around her head in a distressing vice as the walls of their family kitchen creeped closer in a mission to trap her. An invisible elephant sat on her chest restricting her breathing as her bones rattled.
Aware of the signs of his wife being in the mids of an anxiety attack that was verging on turning into an overwhelming panic attack, Jensen urgently scooped up a screaming Finlay who wriggled in his arms viciously. “Jade grab your shoes. Babe take a minute, lie down, have a shower-”
“But Jades lunch and Fin-”
“I’ll deal with it.” Jensen told her before leaning down to sooth her trembling lip with his own stable embrace. “I’ve got this okay? Daddy Ackles to the rescue.”
“I love you.”
“I love you too,” Jensen pecked the top of her head. “Now scoot, I’ll see you when we get back.”
“Don’t be too long,” [Y/N] pleaded as she reluctantly left her family in the kitchen.
“I won’t be,” Jensen reassured her before the soft grey wall broke their line of sight.
Anguish sedated [Y/N]s head and heart, she cursed herself for not being able to cope this morning, leaving Jensen to deal with everything, but as she closed the door to their bedroom and shut out all nose from the world, small tears trickled down her face. A breather with a burning hot shower is exactly what she needed and knowing she can sit under the water for as long as she wanted and not have to worry about or listen out for kids shrunk the elephant to a mouse and she swallowed air hungrily.
