DOLLY | Namjin

🎀⁴

Namjoon made sure to hold Seokjin's hand the entire way to the mall for he kept trying to capture a certain pink butterfly that kept swooping by them, his small fingers grasping at the air lazily, making sure he didn't run off.

Yes, Namjoon had left school during lunch break even though he still had two classes left, but it was worth it to see Jin so much more comfortable outside of school. Seokjin just waddled alongside Namjoon, absolutely no thoughts in that little head, he was probably just thinking about his new dresses he'd be getting. 

Something told Namjoon that his wallet would suffer greatly, but he didn't mind that much. He had warmed up to the little one much quicker than he'd like to admit.

He was suddenly jerked out of his thoughts when he felt a tug on his hand. Eyes fixed on his phone to check his bank account, he simply hummed to show Jin he was listening, but received no answer. He glanced down at his hand, expecting to see the small one looking up at him with those large amber eyes, but instead he just saw his own empty hand. 

"Seokjin?!" Namjoon called, immediately alarmed, twisting his head around every which-way possible. He let out a relieved sigh, his heart slowing down right away, when he saw Jin crouching by a bush. A fond chuckle escaped Namjoon's thick lips as he sat beside the boy on the vacant sidewalk, his near heart attack subsiding.

"Whatcha looking at?" He asked, settling down beside Jin. His eyes reduced to slits when Seokjin turned to face him, his deep dimples popping out on either cheek as a result of his laughter when he saw the same pink butterfly resting on Jin's button nose.

"Oh, that's adorable," he sighed in laughter, wiping his eyes before snapping a photo of the boy's adorably confused expression, lips parted and orbs going cross-eyed. He had the urge to save the picture as his lockscreen, but he restrained himself for the time being.

"Come on, there's no time to play with butterflies," Namjoon smiled, gently shooing the butterfly away. Seokjin watched as the insect flapped away with an unreadable expression, but he was probably envious of the butterfly, being able to spread its wings and fly wherever. Seokjin, however, couldn't. He needed to stay hidden.

Namjoon helped Jin off the ground, intertwining their fingers again. Figuring out something to do with Jin probably should've been his biggest worry, but it wasn't, apparently his biggest concern was buying some kid that just showed up at his house some pretty dresses. Namjoon shook his head and smiled, squeezing Jin's hand.

"Will you buy a dress too?" Seokjin asked. His voice was always so dreamy and almost lazy, but in a good way, it was very addictive. Namjoon shook his head and smiled, amused by the fact that Jin only ever thought of pretty clothing.

"No, Jinnie. I think I'll stick to jeans and a sweater."

"That's unfortunate, I think you should try blue." Jin hummed, occasionally scooting closer to Namjoon, then the other way. It seemed that he was unable to walk in a straight line. 

The student just smiled for the millionth time when he was with Seokjin, shaking his head. He couldn't help it, Jin was just so innocent and small, he didn't want to be away from him for even a second. He wasn't sure if Seokjin actually knew his name or not, but he didn't mind too much.

"How about I put on a blue shirt when we get home?" He suggested as they entered the mall. "Maybe we could have a tea party, hm, Jinnie?"

"With Teddy?"

"With Teddy."

Seokjin hummed happily and squeezed his eyes shut, wiggling his hips as if powering up before suddenly dashing away. Namjoon wasn't even surprised by this, he half expected it since they were approaching DolledUp, a popular dress store in their local mall. It sounded perfect for Seokjin.
