April Showers...



Ah, those pesky rain clouds...

Well, it wouldn't be April here in Southern New Jersey if we didn't get a significant amount of rain, which works well for this month's Flash Fiction featuring Jackey and Daddy Kev. Enjoy!

 



“Jackey? What’re you doing?”

Jackey turned from the rain-splattered window. Daddy leaned in the doorway, looking incredible as always. Jackey loved Daddy’s tall, muscular body, his dark brown eyes, and super sexy beard. He always felt tiny compared to his bear shifter mate, but considering he was a fox shifter, that kind of made sense. He held one of Jackey’s favorite shirts, the one with a baby fox nestled between a bear and wolverine that his friend Ryan had drawn for them.

“I’m watching for flowers, Daddy.” Jackey drew his knees up and wrapped his arms around them. Seeing the shirt made Jackey realize he was cold. He’d been so excited to see the rain now that it was April that he hadn’t finished getting dressed. “It’s a proven fact that April showers bring May flowers.” He nodded sharply for emphasis.

“This is true, but they don’t just pop up because it rains,” Daddy explained, working the shirt open as he stepped closer. He slid it over Jackey’s head, and Jackey pushed his arms through the sleeves. “I should probably grab you a sweatshirt, too,” he mused, rubbing Jackey’s upper arms which he now noticed were covered in goose bumps.

“Where’s Sir?” Jackey asked, lifting his face for a kiss.

Kiss given, Daddy laughed. “I guess you were right. He’s out buying flowers.”

Jackey crowed. He hopped off the windowsill and began chanting, “April showers bring May flowers, April showers bring May flowers.”
