100 Word Flash Fiction contest entry

 

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.

Author Notes
Purely fictional, but entirely possible.
How often do we hear someone say or say it ourselves, "That scared the crap out of me!"
