An unfortunate late night occurrence
Stay Back
by nomi338
Jack was peacefully sleeping when he was jolted awake by the explosive noise of a nearby thunderclap.
This was followed up by a jagged bolt of lightning that frightened him, as it resembled a dagger or sword.
He screamed out in terror as his concerned parents burst into his room.
Jack’s mom went to console him, but was stopped as he begged her not to come any closer.
His parents realized why he did not want them to get any closer as he embarrassedly made his way to the bathroom to shower and change into fresh pajamas.
