I thought "one" looked better because most of the examples had no indirect object. But I suppose "someone" works in both cases.

I saw this in the wild: 妹について回る将ちゃん笑 (of a 4 year old and his younger sister)

XXがYYについて回っている XX is following (yy) around
so "to follow (somebody) around" rather than "to follow one around", no?

I also thought "cling to" was pretty good? "He clings to his sister" in the example up top
