The Retriever-JAEYONG

9

"I can't believe you really said that to them."

Doyoung and Jungwoo had this 'no way, you're kidding?' expression with a mix of 'what the fuck.' Their jaws are dropped and automatically teased Taeyong.

"StUdY's FiRsT," Jungwoo teased.

"You said you didn't have any plans on having a relationship yet!" Doyoung laughed, "You're going to treat me tomorrow!"

Taeyong felt embarrassed and didn't want to remember it.

Jaehyun smiled at the boy with the school bag over his shoulder. Taeyong just sighed and pouted. They're currently walking to home since school was finished.

"Somebody surely heard it and will be the rumor of the week," Taeyong said.

"Is that a problem?"

The boy shrugged his shoulders, "I don't know. Maybe? I mean, they'll talk about me since I have a boyfriend. Probably, they'll talk about you too."

Jaehyun hummed, "Is there a problem if you have a boyfriend?"

"It's not a problem. It's more of a sudden change just because I never, ever noticed my admirers and suddenly, I got a boyfriend," the boy said.

The man furrowed his eyebrows, "Admirers?"

Taeyong nodded, "Y'know, people who likes me...romantically."

It went quiet a bit and suddenly, an arm was wrapped around the boy's shoulders and pulled him closer to the body beside him. Taeyong was surprised by the sudden action Jaehyun did. He cleared his throat.

"Jaehyun--"

"Taeyongie's mine. I am Taeyong's only boyfriend."

Taeyong blushed, "J-Jae--"

They stopped and Jaehyun looked at the boy. He looked straight into Taeyong's innocent doe eyes and the boy did the same. Jaehyun had this hopeful and anxious expression on his face. Taeyong felt new to see that kind of expression and suddenly, he wanted to cup the man's jaw with his hand.

"I'm the only one, right, Taeyong?"

Of course, dogs always want their owners to be theirs and theirs only. It wasn't just because of loyalty, it's how they already felt connected to one another. Taeyong felt his heart started beating fast.

Just seeing Jaehyun like this makes his heart flutter for some reason. Taeyong pulled up a smile and rubbed the man's fluffy hair.

"Of course, baby. You're the only one."

Jaehyun's smile came back and felt the urge of kissing the boy.

But he can't.

"Let's go? I still need to study for tomorrow," Taeyong said and pulled Jaehyun to walk with him, "What do you want this afternoon, huh? You want a snack? I might cook for you before I study."

Jaehyun was left alone in the living room since Taeyong started studying right after he cooked. He sat on the couch and ate a grilled cheese sandwich after he turned the TV on.

Again, he's watching a new movie. He planned on watching a movie with Taeyong but the boy seemed to be too busy this week. He wasn't used to this quiet atmosphere. Usually, Taeyong would be with him this afternoon.

He wasn't even close to even finishing the rising action, he turned the TV off. He picked up the plate with grilled cheese sandwaches and carried it to the kitchen. He placed it on the table before he thought of making tea.

Once he was finished, Jaehyun carried the plate and the cup of tea, and walked towards Taeyong's room. The door was open so Jaehyun just walked in freely. Taeyong's back was facing the door so he was surprised to see Jaehyun laid a plate and a cup beside him.

"What's this?" Taeyong asked and chuckled.

Jaehyun sat on the bed that was just beside the boy's study table.

"For you. I thought you'd be hungry while thinking."

Taeyong placed his ballpen down and took a sip on his cup of tea

"Thanks, Jae."

After, Taeyong suddenly concentrated and suddenly forgot about Jaehyun. The man stayed quiet on the bed as he just watched Taeyong reading a book and textbook at the same time.

Jaehyun carefully leaned over the table and propped his head with his hands. He stared and studied each feature that held by the boy. He moved from one feature to another and thought how lovely Taeyong looked this close.

How his hair fall on his forehead, his nose, his pinkish lips, his doe eyes, as well as the scar beside--they looked pretty on Taeyong. Jaehyun unconsciously smiled.

He wanted to hug and kiss the human so badly. He loved being with Taeyong. He feels very secure and content with the boy. Just the way Taeyong acts with me is how he loves to be treated. Taeyong also takes care of him so it's impossible for Jaehyun not to love a boy like him.

After reading a whole lesson, Taeyong stretched his arms out and groaned. He yawned and scratched his nape. He looked at Jaehyun who was staring at him cutely. Taeyong smiled and patted the man's fluffy hair.

"Are you hungry? You wanna eat something for dinner?" Taeyong asked.

"I like you."

The boy was taken aback. He furrowed his eyebrows and blushed widly.

"D-Don't take that too lightly," Taeyong said.

Jaehyun pouted, "I really like you, Taeyongie. Maybe that's why you have many admirers."

"Why?"

"You're beautiful, smart, nice, very loving and you take care of me very well."

The boy sighed and rubbed the man's head, "You're just hungry, baby. Let's go and I'll cook some dinner for us."

"Okay,Taeyongie."
