Saturday, Jisung woke up from the loudness outside of his room. He groggily reached over to his nightstand and picked up his phone. 10:45 A.M. The boy groaned. Why the hell was there such chaos in his home at this time. Jisung lazily lifted his body to sit up and stared at the wall for a few minutes before he fully got up from his bed. The cold wood floor sent shock waves throughout Jisung's body, waking the boy up a bit more. While he walked to the stairs, he almost ran into a maid.

The boy brought his eyebrows together, Why the hell are the maids here? They only come when-
Jisung's eyes widened in realization. They are not home, they didn't even text or anything.

Jisung stopped at the top of the stairs, noticing that at the bottom of the stairs there was a bunch of suitcases. Then he heard voices that he hadn't heard in a couple months, but sounded all too familiar. Jisung quickly ran down the stairs and ran to the living room. Sure enough his parents were sitting on the couch with his siblings. Their chef was in the kitchen, cooking food.

His parents looked up when they heard footsteps racing to the living room. His mom's eyes lit up and his dad smiled when they saw their youngest child. "Jisung!"

His parents quickly got up from the couch and walked up to him with their arms open wide, they suffocated their youngest child into a tight hug. "We missed you so much!" His mom said softly.

Jisung hugged his parents back. He missed their touch and their presence. It's been about four months since he's seen them. Of course they talk over the phone, but it's not the same.

Whenever they came home, it was bittersweet for Jisung. Of course he was happy that they were home, but he was also upset at them for leaving for so long. It's kind of dumb since it was their job to go on business trips, but he just wished that they would visit more often or stayed longer when they did visit. He barely saw his parents, out of the 365 days in the year, he saw his parents for maybe 30 of those days.

"Hey mom and dad." Jisung said warmly once they separated from the hug. "How long are you guys going to be home for?" He asked as they sat back down at the couch with his siblings.

"For five days." His dad answered.

Jisung smiled on the outside, but on the inside he was filled with disappointment. That's it? Five days? Why do I even get my hopes up anymore?

"So what's been going on with you three?" Jisung's mom asked.

The three siblings all looked at each other, not knowing what to say to that question. "Uhhh..." Brian said.

"Oh come on! It's not a hard question, we just want to know what's been going on with our kids' lives." Jisung's dad said.

"Nothing much has happened to be honest. Just the usual, going to school and doing homework." Jihyo shrugged.

"Are you guys seeing anyone?" His mom asked. "If you say no then I'm slowly going to give up on the dream of having grandkids."

Brian and Jihyo snapped their necks to Jisung, smirking and the boy started to turn red. He slowly raised his hand, "I, uh, I'm dating someone." He said hesitantly with his head down.

His dad raised his eyebrows as his mom squealed and clapped her hands, "Oh my god! Finally, I was honestly getting a little worried. Who is this lucky person that managed to steal your heart."

Jisung groaned and hid his head in a couch pillow, "Mom please."

"Oh stop it." She rolled her eyes at her dramatic son. "Now tell me who."

Jisung lifted his head and looked at his parents in worry. He'd never really came out to them because they were always so busy he just never had the time. He took a deep breath, "It's a boy-"

"Ah ha! I knew it!" His mom said excited, while slapping her laughing husband's shoulder. Jisung looked at his parents with confusion and shock.

"Jisung." His dad said and the boy was bracing for his opinion. "We've known you were gay since forever, we were just waiting for you to tell us. We love you either way. Now tell us about this boy you're dating."

Relief overflowed Jisung's body and his eyes lit up as he beamed. "His name's Minho and he's the sweetest guy ever. We've been dating for a few months and I love him."

"Love?" His dad raised his eyebrows. His siblings and mom had the same facial expression.

"Yeah, I know what you're going to say, love's a strong word, but I really do love him. He makes me happy and he's an amazing guy."

"Well I guess we have to meet him soon and by soon I mean tomorrow." His dad said leaving no room for discussion.

"Well that's good because Minho's coming over tomorrow." Jisung said.

"Have you guys met him?" His mom asked Jihyo and Brian.

They both nodded, "He's a really nice guy and he's a handsome young boy." Jihyo teased Jisung.

"He loves basketball too so he's a keeper." Brian said, making everyone roll their eyes except for their dad.

"Oh good! I'm excited to meet him." His mom smiled.

"I'm trusting that you're being smart and responsible with your relationship." His dad narrowed his eyes at Jisung.

Jisung furrowed his eyebrows in confusion before his face slowly increased in heat when he realized what his dad meant.

Before he could stutter out a stupid response his mom asked his older siblings "What about you two? Have anyone on your mind lately?"

"No." Brian said at the same time Jihyo pointed at him and said "He does."

The oldest child whipped his head at his sister, "W-what? No I don't."

"Oh please, you're not fooling anyone. Jisung and I both know that you like someone but have no balls to actually do something about it." Jihyo rolled her eyes.

Brian looked at his younger brother and Jisung nodded, confirming what Jihyo had said. "Yeah you're not very slick. I've noticed the way you change the subject every time we bring it up. You even said that it was 'complicated'."

The parents raised their eyebrows at the oldest child, amused. "So what's his name?"

Brian sighed in defeat. "Jae."

"What's up with you and him?"

"Nothing. It's just that he's in my vocal class and we're close, but I don't wanna ruin our friendship." He shrugged.

"Oh sweetie please, I bet you he likes you back. Take a chance and just ask him out." His mom advised.

Brian nodded, "Enough about me, what about you Jihyo?"

She looked at him, "What about me?"

"Don't you like someone?"

"Oh yeah, his name's Daniel, but I'm too busy to do anything." She shrugged.

"Bullshit, you're just a wimp." Brian countered.

Jihyo scoffed, "I'm a wimp? Look at you! You're pining over-"

"Okay okay. Enough of that." His mom said, silencing them both. "Younghyun, Jihyo, I hope you guys do something about your crushes. Even your 17 year old brother has a boyfriend. He has more guts than both of you combined."

The two oldest looked at their mom with mouth's gaped. Jisung and his dad laughed. "How's the maids and chef been?" The dad asked changing the subject.

"They've been good like always." Brian lied.

"Oh good." His mom said.

"How have you both been?" Jihyo asked her parents.

"We've been good. It's been hectic like usual, but I'm just glad I'm finally home and get to sleep in my own bed and spend time with my kids." His dad said.

"I wish you could stay longer though." Jisung said quietly.

His parents looked at him with apologetic eyes, "Me too bud." His mom said.

-

After spending the whole day with his family, Jisung was finally sitting on his bed alone. He opened his laptop and FaceTimed his boyfriend.

Minho answered after a ring, he was sitting at his desk. He smiled once he saw his boyfriend's face, "Hey babe." Minho greeted.

"Hey, we're still on for tomorrow right?" Jisung asked.

Minho gave a confused look, "On for tomorrow? We were doing something tomorrow?"

Jisung glared at his boyfriend, "Shut up."

The gang member started laughing, "Yes of course we're still on for tomorrow."

"Ok good because you're meeting my parents." Jisung said as if it was nothing.

Minho, on the other hand, opened his eyes wide. "I'm sorry what? Your parents are home?"

Jisung laughed a little, "Yeah my parents came home today which is why I barely texted you. They are very eager to meet you and my dad said that he wanted to meet you tomorrow so."

"Babe! You're telling me this now? Oh my god I have to go out and buy a new outfit, like a suit and tie or something."

Jisung narrowed his eyes at his boyfriend, "Don't you have dozens of suits?"

"Yes, but that's for work. I need something fresh and new. Should I go buy them gifts? Like something expensive?"

"Babe! Calm down, you don't have to wear a suit just to meet my parents. And no you don't have to buy them anything, please don't. It's going to be a brief meeting, like you did with my siblings, nothing special."

"Baby, I am meeting your parents and you expect me to be calm?"

"Minho being nervous? That's a first." The smaller teased, earning a slight glare from his boyfriend. Jisung continued, "My parents aren't scary, they aren't going to interrogate you. They might ask a few questions but I'll be there to help you out."

"I'm still nervous." Minho mumbled and Jisung rolled his eyes.

-

Jisung woke up the next day excited because he was going to hang out with Minho today. The gang member woke up with his heart beating in his ass because he had to meet Jisung's parents, but it was going to happen sooner or later.

Jisung got ready and walked downstairs, into the living room. His parents were sitting at the dinner table, drinking coffee while his siblings were sitting on the couch, watching some movie.

Jisung sat down at the table and his parents looked at him. "Where are you going?" His mom asked.

"Nowhere. Minho's coming, remember?" Jisung said with his eyebrow raised.

"Well I didn't forget." His dad said, "I've been waiting for this moment."

"Dad please, don't scare him away or make him more nervous than he already is." Jisung begged.

"I'm not going to scare the guy away." His dad said with his hands up in defense, but Jisung was still skeptical.

"Don't worry honey, I'll make sure your father won't scare your boyfriend away." His mom reassured.

"And please don't say anything that'll make him uncomfortable or anything that'll embarrass me."

"Yeah yeah don't worry, I won't ask anything that'll make him uncomfortable. But I'm not making any promises that I won't say anything that'll embarrass you." His dad smiled.

Jisung looked at his mom for help but she said, "Yeah I can't make any promises either." The boy groaned in regret.

"We should all interrogate him." Brian offered the idea.

"Definitely not. You already met him." Jisung shook his head.

"So? We need to scare him a little bit before we welcome him to the family."

"Don't worry, I've got that covered." His dad said.

Jisung looked at his dad in betrayal, "You just said that you weren't going to scare him."

"I won't scare him away but I gotta scare him just a little bit."

"Jisung calm down, nothing bad is gonna happen. You'll still have a boyfriend by the end of it." Jihyo joined the conversation.

"I can't wait until you bring Daniel home." Jisung glared at his sister and she glared at him back.

"Jisung I promise that I'll make sure your father will not traumatize your boyfriend."

Jisung honestly didn't know why he was nervous for his boyfriend, it's Lee Minho they're talking about. He was going to be fine, definitely not going to be scared, maybe a little nervous and intimidated since it was his boyfriend's parents, but not scared.

Just then the gate buzzer went off.

"Oh would you look at that! Seems like it's time to meet your boyfriend." His mom said excited.

Jisung walked over to the monitor and buzzed Minho in. A few minutes later, there was a knock on the door. Jisung looked at his family.

"We'll be in the living room." His mom said before his parents walked to their destination.

"We just want to say hi to Minho." Brian said.

Jisung sighed and opened his front door, revealing his boyfriend who looked good like always. He broke into a smile once he saw Jisung which he always did subconsciously.

"Are you ready?" Jisung asked.

"I hope so." Minho replied.

"You'll be fine, I promise. I'll be there with you." Jisung said as he opened the door wider and invited his boyfriend inside.

"Minho! How have you been." Jihyo asked.

"I've been better." He mumbled from nerves.

"Don't worry, our parents aren't scary." Brian said and Minho gave a weak smile, still nervous.

"They're waiting in the living room." Jisung grabbed Minho's hand and guided them to their destination.

"Mom, dad," Jisung said once they were at the living room, getting his parents' attention. "This is Minho, my boyfriend." Jisung introduced, Minho bowed respectively.

His parents got up from the couch and walked up to them. "Hi Minho!" His mom said smiling.

"Hello Mr. and Mrs. Han." Minho smiled back.

"Jisung please leave us. We would like to speak with Minho alone." His dad spoke. Minho inhaled sharply.

Jisung looked at his dad with a look of shock, "Huh? You want me to go?"

"Yes."

Jisung's mom secretly rolled her eyes at her husbands attempt at being intimidating. Jisung narrowed his eyes at his dad as to say, 'don't do anything'.

"Okay..." Jisung turned to his boyfriend, whispering in his ear, "You'll be fine, don't be nervous." He then left the room, leaving Minho alone with his parents.

"So Minho, how'd you meet my son?" Jisung's dad asked.

"We sit right next to each other in class." Minho answered as politely as he could.

"Oh I see. What do you do outside of school?"

"Nothing much, I study and do homework. When I have time, I hang out with my friends or hang out with Jisung." He technically wasn't lying, he just wasn't telling the full truth.

"Interesting. What're your intentions with my son?" Jisung's dad gave Minho a kind of look that said, 'be careful with your next words'.

"Nothing bad, I respect your son so much sir. I just want to love him and make him feel loved. I want to make him as happy as he makes me and be there for him when he needs someone."

"But why my son?" It was almost like Jisung's dad didn't think Minho was good enough for his son and was waiting for him to crack. Minho knew that Jisung definitely deserved better than him, but he was determined to show the parents that he would try his hardest to be the best for their son.

"Jisung is such a nice and caring person. He really brings out the best in people and he sees the best in people which makes him special. You don't meet someone like him very often. He makes me really happy and brightens my mood everyday. I just want to protect him and keep him safe all the time. And like I mentioned before, I want to make him happy too and be enough for him." Minho smiled, he could've gone on for hours about why he likes Jisung.

"Okay, okay," Jisung's mom said. "Enough with the intimidating dad act." She said to her husband, causing him to laugh. Minho looked at them with confused eyes.

"We can see how much you genuinely love our son. We can confirm that you already make Jisung so happy and that's all we ask from you and all we want for our son." Jisung's dad said.

"We know you're perfect for him." The mom said. "Welcome to the family Minho!" She pulled him into a tight hug. The boy smiled and hugged back.

"Thank you so much Mr. and Mrs. Han." Minho said beaming.

"Oh please, call us mom and dad." Jisung's mom smiled.

Minho felt a warm feeling in his heart. He was truly happy and couldn't stop smiling.

-

When Jisung got kicked out of the conversation with his boyfriend and his parents, he walked up to his room and sat at his desk. He pulled out his phone and texted his friends.

Jisung's bedroom door opened and in popped Minho's head. He had a smile on his face and Jisung guessed that the talk went well. He texted a quick goodbye to his friends before he faced his boyfriend who sat on his bed.

"So how'd that go?" Jisung asked.

"It went fine. Your dad asked me generic questions that a father would ask their child's significant other. After that your mom told your dad to quit the act and then your dad smiled at me for the first time and they welcomed me to the family."

Jisung smiled while he walked over to Minho, stopping in front of him. He placed his hands on each side of his boyfriend's cheeks, he leaned down and pecked Minho's lips. "Welcome to the family babe."

The gang member grabbed Jisung's waist and pulled the boy onto his lap, causing him to help in surprise. Minho hugged his boyfriend and fell back onto the bed. "You have no idea how happy I am." He mumbled.

"You're wrong." Jisung whispered.

The rest of the day they spent together. It was a chill day, they just sat and watched movies or talked while cuddling.

-

The next day, Jisung woke up missing Minho. Today they didn't have any school because it was a teacher work day. They were going to see each other the next day so the boy had to be patient. He walked downstairs and saw his mom sitting on the couch.

"Hey mom." Jisung greeted.

"Oh Jisung! One of my coworkers is coming over for dinner tonight so I need you to dress nicely." His mom explained.

"Who is it?"

"Park Taeyou. She's been one of my coworkers for a while now and she wanted to meet you guys so she's coming over with her two children."

"Oh fun." Jisung said sarcastically.

His mom laughed, "It won't be that bad. It's just for dinner."

"Yeah I guess." Jisung sighed.

-

It was seven o'clock and Jisung was just about done getting ready. He wore a dress shirt and some nice pants. He styled his hair for once.

It's just a dinner. Get your introverted ass out there and talk to new people for once. It's not going to be horrible. Jisung thought to himself.

He heard a knock on his bedroom door before it opened. His mom's head popped inside and said, "Come on, the guests are here, it's time to eat."

Jisung nodded and walked with his mom to the stairs. "You look nice." She said.

Jisung chuckled, "Thanks mom, it's because you told me to dress nicely."

While walking to the dining room, his mom said, "You know, one of my coworker's son is your age and he goes to your school."

They walked into the dining room with the guests, "Oh really? Who could it b-" Jisung stopped his sentence when he made eye contact with the son who was sitting at the table, smiling almost mockingly at him.

Jisung couldn't believe his eyes, it had to be playing tricks, but sadly no, it was reality.

"Moonjin?!"
