You were glad that you kept a clean house as you led Jimin in for the first time, internally thanking yourself for putting things away and keeping it presentable. You slid your shoes off in the doorway, thanking him when he did too and flicking on the lights to the living room.

Jimin breathed heavily where he stood, taking in how everything in the house not only fit you so well, but smelled exactly like you. He looked around at the style of the living room and tried memorizing every single picture that stood in little frames on the shelves, every single keepsake and trace of you that was strewn around the room. He saw a picture of you and, no doubt, your parents, you had to have been barely a year old.

Your chubby cheeks were squished into a smile, front teeth half grown in and wispy hair a mess as the wind blew. Your parents were both kissing your cheeks, and he could almost hear the delighted squeal that had surely come out of your mouth.

You had already gotten Netflix queued, shifting your gaze to land on Jimin who was stood by one of your shelves. His eyes were locked on an old family picture of you and your parents, when you were just a baby. A lovesick smile was glued on his face as he stared at the picture, taking the beauty in.

He finally turned, joining you on the couch, "You were so tiny, I.. Just so cute."

You blushed, averting your eyes to the tv and scrolling through the movies that they had. You both decided on Toy Story, pressing play. You realized that you had forgotten popcorn, retreating to the kitchen and putting some in the microwave. While it heated up you came back out, leaning over the back of the couch and watching the movie. 

Jimin scooted over so that his head was right next to yours, leaning his cheek onto yours. You were pretty sure that neither of you were watching the movie anymore but it was okay. You reached over the back of the couch, lacing your fingers in his and squeezing his hand.

The microwave went off, startling you and Jimin both. You laughed, walking back to the kitchen and grabbing a big bowl, pouring the steaming hot popcorn inside. You rejoined Jimin on the couch, grabbing a fistful of popcorn and focusing on the movie again.

You got almost halfway through before the popcorn was done so you grabbed a blanket, draping it over you and Jimin. 

"Hold on!" Was his only reply as he wriggled out from under the blanket and sat on the floor, transforming into the large wolf that you'd come to know only this morning. He hopped back onto your couch, crawling into your lap and resting his furry head against your chest. Your fingers found themselves tangled in his thick fur, the feeling making Jimin nearly fall asleep.

You yourself fell asleep shortly after the movie ended, and though Jimin's eyes were closed, he was not asleep. He heard the movie shut off, peeking an eye open to see your sleeping face above him. He shifted back to his human form, gently lifting you off of the couch and bringing you back to your bedroom. He felt bad invading your privacy like that but he couldn't just leave you on the couch!

He tucked you into your bed, making sure you were nice and warm before shifting yet again, curling up beside your bed in his wolf form.

Your alarm clock was what woke you up at seven in the morning, eliciting a groan from you and a whine from something beside your bed. Fear overtook you as you knew you lived alone but then yesterday's events came flooding back to you. You turned off the alarm, peeking over the bed and smiling as Jimin's sleepy eyes were on yours.

"Well when I said sharing a bed would be moving too fast, I didn't mean you had to sleep on the floor," You teased, settling back down under your blankets. You averted your eyes as Jimin changed forms, the disfiguration of his body unnerving you.

He was now kneeling on the floor, nose almost touching yours as you laid in bed. He nudged his face forwards, mumbling a soft, 'boop' as he nudged his nose into yours. You laughed, sitting up in your bed and motioning for him to get on beside you. He complied, instantly curling up and resting his head in your lap. You ran your hands through his hair, rubbing his soft wolf ears and trying not to smile when his own nearly lit up the room.

"So what are we doing today?"

"Well, um, I had plans to just go grocery shopping, that's about it."

"Okay! I can go with you!"

You thanked him, stumbling out of the bed and walking into your closet. You popped your head out, "Jimin, I don't have any other clothes that would fit you, but I'm gonna get dressed now, you wanna just wait in the living room?"

"Sure! That's okay, I can just rewear these." He gestured to the clothes from yesterday that he'd also slept in, and you nodded, waiting until he left the room to begin changing.

Once you were changed, you made sure you had a grocery list, coming back out into the living room to fins Jimin sitting on the couch. Your phone laid on the coffee table so you picked it up, scrolling through notifications that you'd gotten overnight. Your friends hadn't said anything more since you'd told them you had a migraine, leaving you alone as you'd asked. 

"Are we going now?"

You looked up to see Jimin already lacing up his shoes.

"Oh, sure! Yeah, let's go." He nodded excitedly, grabbing your hand and practically dragging you to the door. You were barely able to lock it behind you before he was off to the car, waiting eagerly beside it, tail wagging. You laughed, shaking your head and following after him, shopping list in hand.
