Man's Best Friend
Description
Taking care of a puppy isn't how Yifan planned to spend the next couple of weeks, but he doesn't mind looking after a friend.
Foreword
Joonmyun runs through the introduction and shows Jongin where things are while Yifan silently watches from behind them like a new home buyer following a realtor, adding a comment when Joonmyun prompts him to make it seem like he's involved.
"And remember to ask if you need or want something, okay? Yifan hyung won't know unless you say something, got it?" Jongin nods a little sullenly, although his tail wags a couple times when Joonmyun ruffles the hair between his ears. "I love you, Jongin. Be good." He hugs him tightly. Jongin nuzzles into his neck. "I'll call when I can, okay?"
"...Okay." Jongin's ears and tail fall limp; he obviously doesn't want to let Joonmyun go, and Joonmyun indulges him for a while longer. Yifan meets Joonmyun's eyes and raises an eyebrow. He doesn't remember his friend describing the dog as clingy, but Jongin's holding onto him like he's a jacket.
Joonmyun rubs Jongin's back, and the tail wags a little. "He is still a puppy. He eats and sleeps a lot and gets attached quickly. I think it's charming, but it's also dangerous." His gaze hardens. "He trusts quickly, and it's a complete trust that I'm afraid will ruin him, if that trust is broken."
