Chapter Text
When Jeremy woke up, he was in the room they had put together for the little. Great!
He was also wearing footie pajamas, and a stuffed owl was tucked into his chest. Even better!
He was obviously being sarcastic. He never wanted to be little in the first place and now it seems like everything, including his own Squip was against him!
He squeezed onto the owl. It was super soft and fluffy. He started to cuddle it, and couldn't stop.
Jeremy did eventually stop when he realized what he was doing. It was just a stupid stuffed animal, he needed to grow up!
Jeremy threw the stuffie on the floor and turned over. He needed to snap out of it! This is stupid and he needs to stop!
That attitude didn't last long. Jeremy picked the owl back up almost immedititly after he threw it. He hugged it tightly. "I sowwry." He didn't want to say it but it felt needed. What if he hurt the poor owl's feelings?"
Wait! No! It's just a stuffed animal! It doesn't have feelings! He had to stop doing this! He felt small, and weak, and like he needed to be taken care of, and he hated that feeling.
As Jeremy cuddled the owl, he looked around the room. It was hard to believe the Squip and him put it together just yesterday. It was even harder to believe that he was the little who was in it, and that he was the Squip's little.
Despite Jeremy not liking the idea of being little, he was one, and he'd have to accept it. Maybe he'd recieve the attention he never recieved from his real parents. That thought, if only for a second, made Jeremy smile.
