Demi Lovato Imagines

Sick

"Come on baby, up for school!" I hear my mommy shout up the stairs. I don't feel very well though so I stay in bed. I snuggle back into my pillow and pull my blankie over me as best as I can before I close my eyes, slowly drifting back to sleep. "Baby, get up!" I hear my mommy shout again. I need my mommy up here and cuddling me but my throat hurts too much to shout for her so I'll have to just wait for her to get mad and come into my room. I would leave my bed to say but I'm so cold.

I hear mommy's thumping footsteps coming up the stairs and towards my room. She opens my room door and her face looks so mad. "Why are you not out of bed? You have school in half an hour and it takes us 20 minutes to get there!" She tells me trying not to shout. "Sick mommy" I try and say but my voice breaks and stutters when I do it. Mommy looks at me then comes and sits on my bed. "You're sick baby? You wanna stay home with mommy today?" She asks me quietly and calm. I just nod my head, close my eyes and bring my blankie up to my face to try and get warm.

Mommy gets up and goes downstairs to call my school and tell them I'm too sick to go in then comes back upstairs with a thermometer. I feel her pull my duvet and blankie away from me which I whine at and try to grab them again. "Baby you can have them in a second, let mommy take your temperature first" she tells me. She sticks the end of the thermometer in my mouth and leaves it there for what feels like forever before she finally takes it out and looks at it. "You're running a fever baby, you're too hot" she tells me before resting her hand on my face and stroking under my eye with her thumb. The warmth of her hand feels so nice on my skin. "I feel really cold mommy, my blankie isn't warming me up much" I say sadly.

She doesn't reply, instead she scoops me up into her arms and takes me out of my room. The warmth of her body feels so nice and comforting. She opens a door that I haven't really paid much attention to where it is, the bathroom of course. She places me on the cold counter that makes me yelp with how cold it is. Mommy hears my yelp then picks me up again, puts a towel underneath me and then puts me back down. She starts running me a bath that I hope is warm because I'm so cold. "Time to get undressed baby" she says to me. I don't wanna get undressed though since I'm already so cold. I shake my head at mommy and look down at my hands while I play with them.

Mommy comes over to me and picks me up. "Bubba we need to get you warmed up in the bath, I know you feel cold but it'll warm you up" she tries to convince me, knowing how much I love it when she calls me Bubba. I bury my head in the crook of her neck and cling onto her like she was going to drop me. She carefully sits down on the closed toilet, making sure my legs go either side of her before pulling me into her chest.

She keeps me close to her for a few minutes and I feel so snuggly even though my head is now on her boobies since I'm not big enough to put it higher. I close my eyes, listening to her heart beat and breathing in her scent. I love my mommy's scent and cuddles, they make me really sleepy. Mommy always used to tell me that she'd lie me on her chest as a baby and I'd fall asleep really quickly.

"You want mommy to join you in the bath bubba? I'll wash you and keep you cuddled into me as best as I can" she asks me with a sad tone in her voice. I open my eyes and nod against her chest before I feel her soft lips on my forehead, giving me a kiss. She carefully starts undressing me which is quite hard because of the way I'm sat. She unbuttoned my fluffy pj shirt and takes it off of me then takes her shirt off and her bra I think it's called? It's the thing that holds her boobies since she said "If mommy doesn't wear it, her boobies will touch her belly button!" which always makes me laugh when she says it.

She carefully lifts me so I'm standing on the floor in my fluffy socks and pulls down my pj bottoms so I can step out of them. Once they are off, she stands up and takes hers off too. The floor is covered in our clothes and pyjamas. Mommy doesn't have socks on so she sits me on the toilet like she did and pulls my socks off one at a time. Then she picks me up and walks over to the bath. She carefully climbs in, being careful not to fall over like she does a lot and gets hurt a lot. She lowers herself in which also lowers me in and as soon as my body touches the water, it feels like a warm blanket is wrapped around me.

After I have been in the bath with mommy and warmed up a bit, we both get into clean pyjamas and she carries me downstairs and places me on the counter in the kitchen. "Okay baby, I'm gonna have to give you some medicine. This one tastes like cherries and will make you feel better but maybe a bit sleepy okay?" She explains while getting out my medicine. She puts the pushy thing into the bottle, turns it upside down and fills it with the pretty pink medicine. Once it is filled enough, she pulls it out of the bottle and it makes a loud pop. She comes over to me and tells me to open my mouth. She places the end of the pushy thing in my mouth and slowly pushes my medicine into my mouth.

Once it is all gone, she cleans the pushy thing before putting it back in the cupboard with my medicine. Then she grabs a baby bottle out of a different cupboard and fills it with milk before putting it in the microwave to warm it up. Once the microwave makes the loud ping to tell mommy it's ready, she comes over to me and places me on her hip so I can cuddle her and then gets the milk from the microwave. She brings us into the living room and the sofa is all set out with blankets and pillows.

Placing me in the middle of it all, she puts a movie on then comes and joins me on the sofa. She sits down next to me then lays me across her lap, holding my head up with her arm like I'm a little baby. I turn a little bit in her arms so I can cuddle her better then put my hand on her chest. She looks down at me and smiles, I smile back at her, feeling comfy in her arms. Everyone tells me I have my mommy's smile and I'm glad because my mommy's smile is one of my favourite things about her. She looks like a princess when she smiles.

She brings the end of the bottle to my lips and moves it a little bit, tickling my lip then slides it carefully into my mouth so I can drink it. "You know, I never thought I'd use these bottles again after weaning you off them but I don't mind using them every now and then when my little baby is sick" I hear her tell me with a little laugh. My eyes start to close while I'm drinking the milk from the bottle with my mommy cuddling me. I feel her move slightly but don't open my eyes then a light blanket is placed on me and I think it's covering mommy too. She places her lips on my forehead again, the bottle still in my mouth then whispers "goodnight my sick baby, mommy loves you so incredibly much" and with that I fall asleep.

AN// Okay, I'm trying to slowly come back into writing. Thank you to @wowiampoopy for suggesting this idea. I absolutely loved writing it and had to work on it as soon as you commented the idea! Thank you all for all of the support on my break, you have no idea how much it means to me. I may not be back for good but I'll try and start posting stuff again when I feel okay to. Stay strong my little stars 🌟💛
