Toddler - [TAEBIN FF]

Chapter 19

"You seem to really like the DiCaprio version of Romeo and Juliet," Soobin commented.

"What makes you say so?"

"I was walking past the fish tank, just as you, and stopped when you did. And you looked at me."

Taehyun scoffed.

"You're cheesy."

Before Soobin could reply, Juhyeok had tugged on his sleeve.

"I wanna see more!!"

"Anything you want, Juhyeok."

The little boy pulled on both adults' arms as they walked through the South American section of the aquarium, finding many other kinds than just tropical fish.

Some were really huge, almost the length of Taehyun's arm, and some were so incredibly small, you would need a telescope to see them from afar.

"I can't imagine being that small," Juhyeok remarked.

"Well, before you were born, you were— OW!"

Taehyun had punched him in the ribs.

"Choi Soobin!"

"What?"

"He's a kid!"

"I didn't say anything age inappropriate! It's not like I said—"

The brunette clamped a hand over Soobin's curved lips, having to stand on his toes as he couldn't reach him otherwise.

"Shush!!"

Juhyeok silently giggled.

I would love to see more of this; they look so funny.

Soobin took Taehyun's hand off his lips.

"Now now, we don't want any special attention, don't we?" he teased.

Taehyun glanced out of the corner of his eyes to see a few visitors eyeing them suspiciously. He simply scoffed and took Juhyeok's hand.

"Let them look I suppose," he sassed before continuing walking.

Soobin smiled smugly.

That's more like it; stop paying attention to unnecessary others.

The trio moved into the North American section, which interestingly kept crocodiles.

"Since when do you keep crocs in an aquarium?" Soobin asked.

"Beats me."

Juhyeok stood on his toes to look over the railing at the crocs below him. One was a baby, and he cocked his head up at Juhyeok when he spotted him.

Before he could give a wave, Taehyun wrapped his arms around his middle.

"I don't want you to fall and become crocodile food," he said.

"Like this I won't," Juhyeok laughed.

Taehyun kept his son tightly in his hold as he waved at the baby crocodile down below, who bobbed his snout up and down, showing his sharp canine teeth.

Soobin found the sight so adorable, that he had to snap a quick picture of them. Taehyun didn't notice, as Soobin has his flash and shutter sound off.

"The baby croc is so cute!" Juhyeok exclaimed.

"He won't be if he grabs your leg."

"Daaaad!!"

Taehyun laughed and tousled his hair.

"I'm kidding."

Soobin chuckled as well and took Juhyeok's hand.
