Ch. 4- Bed Wetting
Theodore felt warm.
Then he felt cold.
He tossed and turned.
Theodore awoke with a gasp.
"Oh no! Not again!"
Theodore had wet the bed.
He wasn't sure if he should go to J for this or try to handle it by himself.
Before he could make a choice, the door opened.
J was checking on them.
She saw Theodore was awake.
"Hey, boo" she says "Can't sleep?"
"I-uh…" Theodore stuttered.
"What's the matter?" J asked and headed to his bed.
"No, don't sit on the bed!" Theodore cried.
"Why not?" J questioned.
"B-Because I…" Theodore stammered.
"Oh, you wet the bed" J felt the wet sheets with her hand.
Theodore's eyes filled with tears.
"I'm sorry" he sniffles.
"It's alright, it happens" J said.
Theodore got off his bed.
"Start taking off your cloths; I'll gather the wet sheets" J told him.
Theodore nodded and took off his shirt.
J put Theodore's sheets and cloths for a wash.
She went back to the room to find Theodore in new PJs.
"Well, since it's late and you have school in the morning, you can sleep in my bed until your sheets are done. Then I'll bring you back to your bed" J offered.
"Okay" Theodore agreed and held out his arms for her to pick him up.
"C'mon, babe" J scooped him up and carried him to the guest room.
"You won't tell, will you?" Theodore asked her.
"Oh, of course not" J told him "it can be our little secret."
Theodore smiled and laid down in J's arms.
When the sheets were done, J placed them back on his bed.
In the guest room, Theodore slept peacefully on the bed.
J picked him up and he clung to her, digging his face in her neck.
She was about to leave the room with him, when Theodore said, "Can I stay here… with you?"
"Sure" J laid Theodore back on her bed and got in with him.
He snuggled close to her and fell back to sleep.
J rubbed his head before falling to sleep as well.
