William Nylander Masterlist
For the past few road trips you have been staying in Willy’s apartment while he’s been gone. Willy claimed it was because he needed you to watch Pablo and Banksy for him, as well as the apartment. Though he would never admit it to you, the real reason Willy wanted you to stay in his apartment while he was gone was so he could come back to you and your scent in his home (and in his bed). Throughout these past few road trips, you’ve developed a strong bond with Pablo and Banksy Nylander. You treated them like your own children, you cuddled and pet them whenever they wanted, you gave them extra treats and food, and taking them on very long walks through downtown toronto.
Willy first noticed Pablo and Banksy’s favoritism towards you around the six month mark in your relationship, it was small, nothing major. You and Willy were relaxing after a game, usually Willy won’t let you sit on the couch unless you’re directly next to him (or on top of him), but this was different. The leafs had lost 6-1 against the sabers. the sabers, Willy couldn’t believe it. He just wanted some space to digress which resulted in you being separated by a single cushion, which may not be a lot to some, but to willy it was like the grand canyon.
Willy was staring at the tv, a random episode of friends playing in the background, when he reached down expecting to find a soft, curly dog head but instead all he found was the soft material of his own sweatpants. He glances around before setting his gaze on you, you’re laying down on your side, facing the tv with a blanket wrapped around you. Pablo is lying down in front of you, his nose tucked under your chin while Banksy is alseep half on top of you. The smile on Willy’s face was there the entire night.
The second (and most important) time Willy noticed his dogs favoritism towards you was during a date. Willy had an off day so you both decided to spend the day exploring downtown toronto, and of course you decided to bring the dogs. How could you not? The dogs were happily trotting along in front of you while you and Willy tried to figure out where the diner you were going to eat at was. Willy was insisting the diner was to the right, but you were certain it was to the left. Since you both hate to be wrong, you go in different directions. When Willy realizes there are no dogs weaving between his legs he stops, he turns his head around and sees Pablo and Banksy weaving between your legs. Willy smiles and shakes his head before breaking out into a light jog and joining you at your side. Sure enough you were right, the diner was to the left.
