How to Take Care of Jaime Preciado (Because I Won't Be There Anymore)

How to Take Care of Jaime Preciado
(Because I won’t be there anymore)
The last How-To entry of The Mighty Ding

Jaime isn’t hard to take care of. He just requires lots of love and attention. And food, don’t forget the food.

Jaime loves his bass guitar. He has a couple different ones. Let him get all happy when he talks to you about them. Let him be excited when he walks into a guitar shop. He can go on forever and ever about the different types of basses and which ones are his favorites. Oh, and he loves to play them for you! He’s amazing at the bass guitar, so just sit there and enjoy him playing some of his songs.

His favorite food is a cheese sandwich. Lightly toasted. American cheese. He’ll go crazy for that stuff and you can use it as a bribe. He’ll do almost anything for a cheese sandwich.
Don’t be fooled by Jaime: his cuteness is a weakness. You’ll do anything just to see him smile and be all cute and cuddly. I swear, it’s a trap! Trust me, I know he’s super-duper cute but he’ll make you do anything with his cuteness!

He gets stuck in boxes easily. Make sure that Mike and Vic don’t trap him in one because they’ll forget about him.

Please, please, please don’t let him around explosive and Tony. Booms+Tony+Jaime=Bad news!

Jaime loves it if you rub the top of his head and play with his hair. It’s his one true weakness (besides the sandwiches). It also makes him fall asleep faster. Sometimes Jaime has nightmares and he’ll come into your room/bunk and stare at you until you open your eyes. Then he’ll beg to sleep next to you because apparently you’re going to ‘scare the nightmares away’. I’m still not sure if that’s a compliment or not. Just let him crawl in with you and play with his hair. He’ll fall asleep immediately and a sleeping Jaime is a peaceful Jaime.

Cuddle him often and whenever you can. He deserves it and he’s a good cuddler.
He’ll always hold you when you’re having nightmares. Just crawl in bed with him and he’ll protect you from anything your mind can think of. Plus, he’ll hum some of his songs until you fall asleep. It’s the most soothing thing in the world. Trust me.

I’ll miss him bunches. Please give my regards every once in a while. I love Jaime so much so please take care of him or I’ll haunt your ass and give you the ghostly smack down, take my word on that. He deserves someone who is willing to give him all the love he’ll give you. He is one of the kindest, loyalist, and most caring people I know, so don’t take him for granted. He’s also a butt-queef, but he’ll cause you no trouble.

Oh, and if you hurt him, Autumn will hurt you back, but the pain will be 10x as bad. Just remember that.

Good luck taking care of Jaime. He can be a handful at times, but he’s the sweetest man I’ve ever known. I’m lucky for the time I got with him.

Love,
The Mighty Ding, Willow Caston

Jaime,
I’m sorry I couldn’t stay longer. Thanks for all the memories because they were the best I’ve ever had. I love you so much. Never change a thing about you. I only wish we could’ve had more time together, but what we had was greater than anything I could’ve imagined.
You’ll always be my love.
-Willow

O.O I'm so, so sorry about your loss :( It hurt me and made me cry just writing this. I couldn't imagine going through it. I'm happy and appreciate that you loved the story and you could connect to it, even though it was connected with a painful memory. I hope you're having a good day despite the story ending and reliving memories. :) You're welcome and stay amazing, beautiful :) <3

@piercingirisash
I'm so happy you loved the story! I sure hope I'll have time to write make Willow's story a trilogy and write a third story to this series, but I'm really happy that it was one of the best fanfics you've ever read! You're very welcome and thank you!

Oh my gosh! I can not even express how much I've adored this story. Ik it's a fan fiction but it's certainly one of the best I've ever read. It made me laugh, upset, and cry. You, love, gave me feels with your words. Thank you!

Ok so you have a lot to answer for considering it’s 2 am, I have to be up in 3 hours and I’m bawling my eyes out.
If you see this, thank you for writing such a beautiful story in both this and the first part. Even though it was fanfiction, I connected with it, having just lost my cousin to a brain tumour that basically turned him into Willow. He lost most of his basic function in a very similar way to Willow, and then died in the final hours of his 16th birthday, a year after diagnosis. The way you wrote this made me relive that, and your writing took me on a journey
TL:DR I'm crying, thank you. <3
