Minho opened the door to the local pet shelter, stepping back to allow y/n to walk in before him. He chuckled as she practically ran inside, the eager look on her face bringing warmth into his heart. Together for a year, and she still gave him that warm and fuzzy feeling every time he looked at her.

“Slow down, jangi. The animals are not going anywhere.” Y/n turned around, her eyebrows furrowed and her full, pink colored lips pursed in annoyance.

“Don’t censor my joy, Minho Oppa! I've been waiting for this day all week.” He nodded, knowing what she meant as he recalled the giddiness she had been displaying ever since he brought up the topic of getting a pet to keep her company while he was away working. She had looked like a child awaiting Santa or their birthday.

Greeted by the male behind the counter, he and Minho discussed their business while y/n stood there as patiently as she could. All she wanted to do was go to the back and look at all of the animals in need of a loving home.

After what felt like an eternity, but in reality was only five minutes, the man lead Minho and y/n through a pair of double doors. They were instantly greeted by the happy barking of eager dogs, all trying to get their attention. Y/n looked around, her eyes searching the faces of the excited dogs; spying a few cats as well.

Taking her bottom lip between her teeth, she petted each one, trying to let her heart pick the lucky dog that would become a part of their family. Her eyes stopped on a beautiful black and cream colored Pungsan that's tail wagged happily, its pink tongue hanging excitedly out the side of its mouth. What caught her eyes and heart the most were the brightly twinkling blue eyes that almost begged to love it.

A hand touched her shoulder and y/n looked up at her boyfriend. “I can tell you've made your choice.” Turning to the man that had escorted them to the back, he smiled with a curt nod. “We'll take him.”

Walking out of the shelter, Minho held the leash of the tall dog in one hand, and the small, delicate hand of his girlfriend's in the other. Her luscious lips turnt up in a gorgeous smile and Minho felt like the luckiest man in the world.
