When Jongin first lay his eyes on you, they had brimmed with tears yet to spill, a warmth coursing through him that threatened to engulf each atom of his being. The most gentle smile graced his lips as he watched you grip your mother’s finger with your tiny hand, placing his own, much larger hand against his chest. He proceeded to exhale one deep, heavy breath, the tenderness of the moment having been too much for him to take in that the thoughtlessly effortless and wholly necessary function of being – breath – felt like it were suddenly a world away, entirely out of reach.
Like you. Though separated by several dimensions, realms and perceptions, in that moment Jongin had wanted nothing more than to whisk you up into his own arms and cradle you gently to his chest, rock you back and forth until the confusion and unrivalled chaos of coming into existence settled.
He’d heard numerous tales of the intensity of the moment, every Guardian Angel had. Of the honor of being assigned one’s very own human to watch over, protect and guide to the best of their ability. But nothing could have prepared him for the sheer gush of love and amazement he’d felt as it truly dawned on him, that finally, after all the years of preparation and intensive training, he had you.
As much as he’d assisted and offered humanity a helping hand in guidance over the course of his own existence, he was finally taking his very first step into fulfilling the sole purpose he had as a Guardian Angel.
True as it were that he didn’t know all there was to know about you and had, still, a long journey ahead with you, it was as if the previous woes of separation that had been dragging him into a deep pit of anxiety and despair whenever he’d overhear a fellow Guardian Angel gush about their Human – as if the awful, nagging question of when hadn’t already been creeping into his own thoughts during the nondescript, menial tasks of his day as it were – when would he be allocated his own human to watch over, when would he be allowed onto the most defining chapter and journey of his existence, all but washed away.
The timing must’ve been divine, because it led him to being assigned you.
