( Something woke Jake just as it was growing light. )

So, I've been learning Dutch (because I'm going to visit scribblesinink this summer). Which is possibly entirely unnecessary, but my brain likes a challenge. Apparently my muses also like a challenge. Although I'm only in week 3 of my course, they decided I really needed to practise my Dutch by writing fanfic in Dutch....

I had to take some sneak peaks ahead to weeks 4 and 5 for some things and also needed something from week 8, although I didn't realize that until I got the fic betaed. But I proudly give you (with huge thanks to scribblesinink for her patience in answering questions about her language, suggesting the title and betaing the Dutch version for me and thereby vastly improving it):

Iemand in de watten leggen/A Little TLC

Samenvatting/Summary: Heather is ziek. Jake heeft een plan om haar beter te maken./Heather is sick. Jake has a plan to make her feel better.
