Raindrops and Jitterbugs

Start from the beginning
                                    

"It's alright dollface, that bad old storm won't bother you."

"It's too scary, mommy."

The Omega hated seeing his little one so upset, so he started singing an old tune that he had sang to his sisters when they were young.

Little jitterbug don't cry

You'll be swingin' by and by

You are just a tiny tot

And until you've grown a lot

Your rattle will have to do

Little jitterbug go slow

You'll be rockin' 'fore you know

Daddy won't be home 'til dawn

When he left, he took his horn

Someday you will have one too

If you're like your Pa,

Sonny, you'll go far

My you'll look grand

Leadin' a band

Foolish it may be

But this dream's on me

And it's for you

Make it come true

Little jitterbug it's dawn

Dream a dream of Daddy's horn

If you're good and go to sleep

He will give you one to keep

Little jitterbug go sleep

Sonny, go to sleep

Swing will always keep

When you're of age

You'll top the page

Listen to your Ma

'Cos she taught your Pa

His swinging is true

Yours will be too

Little jitterbug it's dawn, ah-ha-ha,

Dream a dream of Daddy's horn

If you're good and go to sleep

He will give you one to keep

Little jitterbug, go sleep,

Little jitterbug, go sleep.

He looked down after the last note and saw that his little jitterbug was indeed fast asleep. He pulled one of loose blankets up over them both before leaving a gentle kiss on her forehead.

Sam watched the whole thing with fond amusement.

"I didn't realize I'd married a crooner."

"I'm just full of surprises."

"Oh yeah," Sam murmured as he leaned over their daughter to press his lips to Bucky's," anything that I should be prepared for?"

"Just one thing,really."

"What's that?"

"In about oh...seven and a half months or so, we're going to have to start building forts big enough for four."

It took a few seconds for Sam to understand what he was being told,but when he did his eyes bugged out.

"You mean you're?We're?"

Yes Sammy, we're having another baby."

The Alpha wasted no time gathering the omega as close as possible without squishing the child sleeping inbetween them. He couldn't believe how lucky he was. Not only did he have a wonderful mate and child, but now another pup was on the way.

He couldn't have been more blessed if he tried.

"I love you, Bucky."

"I love you, too, Sammy."

Sam snuggled down into the covers with his family in his arms, and drifted off to the sound of raindrops as the storm began to fade.

Notes:

The song Bucky sings is "Lullaby to a Little Jitterbug" by The Andrews Sisters
