Meeting Jongin, Baekhyun is so glad to have his son as a buffer, because his little spawn is friendliness personified and takes to Jongin immediately, doing most of the talking and immediately pulling him away to play, so Baekhyun can breathe and give himself a peptalk on how to function around tall, hot men.

He has a type, and Jongin’s it.

Fatherhood has altered it a little, however. For as leggy and toned he is and how deep his voice is and how easily he can lift Tae and his friends, Baekhyun’s heart really goes wild when he notices the small, affectionate smiles Jongin has when watching Taehyung play or color and when he securely holds Taehyung, who succumbs to sleepiness through his protests. His neighbors fawn over Jongin, praising his care, and there’s a sense of pride as well as a smug little bit of satisfaction. Yes, isn’t Jonging amazing? He’s my son’s babysitter.

Often, with his infatuations, the subject will show up in his dreams, and Jongin’s no different. Rather than fooling around, they’re mostly child-friendly, which is also a change he’s noticed since becoming a parent. Jongin and Baekhyun walking Mongryong. Jongin and Baekhyun making breakfast. Jongin and Baekhyun picking up Taehyung after school. Jongin pinning Baekhyun to the sofa. Jongin and Baekhyun grocery shopping. Jongin and Baekhyun taking Taehyung to the zoo.

Jongin and Baekhyun.
