Summary:
Momo informs Yosetsu that her parents want to meet him. This made him a bit scared as he wasn’t sure what they might think of him, especially when he’s the boyfriend of their own daughter.

“Do you have any plans on the weekends, Yosetsu?,” Momo asked as the two of them were doing their English homework together. They were in her dorm room doing this since the library was quite full.

“No, not really. Why do you ask?”, he questioned.

“Well, my parents...kinda want to meet you,” Momo shyly answered, which made Yosetsu surprised in disbelief. In fact, his surprised expression slowly became frightened.

Yosetsu and Momo have been dating for a while now, but the thought of meeting her parents is still and always has been nerve-wracking for him. They’re Pro Heroes themselves after all.

          Momo has met Yosetsu’s parents before and they were really happy to meet her and know that she was their son’s girlfriend. It makes sense why Yosetsu introduced Momo to his parents first, it was mainly because his parents were less busy which is why they had time to meet Momo.

“T-They do..?,” he asked nervously, still a bit uncertain.

“Yeah. I’ve actually talked to them about you quite a lot even before we dated. I guess they’re quite intrigued to the point they want to meet you in person,” Momo explained with a nervous chuckle.

“Umm..I don’t mean to offend your folks or anything but...are they the type who have high expectations for their child’s partner..?”

Momo blinked at her boyfriend’s question and soon nervously laughed, “Well...before I came to U.A. High School, I’ll be very honest, they were like that. But I think as time went on, they sort of changed and just trusted who I wanted to be with. Overall, I don’t think there’s anything for you to worry about.”

“You sure..?,” he asked, just to be sure.

She nodded, “Just be yourself, and you’ll be fine.”

During the weekends...

          Yosetsu was panicking in his mind as anxiety rose the more he and Momo were coming closer and closer to her residence. Yes, he was going to visit and come to her house, but it’s not just that. Not only will he be coming to her home for the first time, but that’s including meeting her parents.

They were picked up by her driver and over the past few minutes, he was just anxious. He wasn’t sure if he needed to dress formal or casual, if he was overdressed or underdressed. Was there anything he needed to say and not say? He’s very certain swearing is prohibited in meeting your girlfriend’s parents.

Momo, wanting to calm his nerves, held his hand for the entire ride as she hoped it would give him some ease. “Yosetsu, are you okay?”

“Honestly...no...no I’m not,” he admitted.

She giggled and intertwined her fingers with his, “It’s okay, I’ll be here by your side. I promise, my parents are great!”

“I know they are, I’m just scared of how I might act,” he said.

“Like I said, just be yourself and you’ll be fine. You don’t have to act super normal as if we're royalty,” Momo chuckled.

“Why do you think I see you as a princess, Momo?” Yosetsu smirked at her which made Momo blush.

She playfully punched him and he laughed.

“Miss Yaoyorozu, we are here,” her driver said as the car soon entered the driveway of Momo’s house.

          Yosetsu was in complete shock, seeing a house that is an actual mansion isn’t something he expected to go to especially when your own girlfriend is this rich. The whole lot itself made Yosetsu shocked in disbelief, he didn’t think anyone would need this big of a house and even if they did, it would cost so much to buy and take property of a wide area.

The whole place itself was fancy and Yosetsu slightly felt a bit intimidated simply just by the residence of the Yaoyorozu family.

The car soon parked near the entrance door of the mansion and Momo and Yosetsu went out to enter the mansion. The driver helped guide the couple to the house as Yosetsu looked around the area, taking in everything he saw just by the exterior of the house to the gardens that were by the side of the house.

“Your house...is very big,” he said to Momo.

She giggled, “I get that a lot from my classmates. No surprise having that coming from you.”

They soon made it to the entrance door which was quite big and was made out of fancy wood. The driver opened it for the two and the couple soon entered the house.

           The interior still gave Yosetsu the same shock he had the first time he saw the house, the mansion on the inside was huge as it had high ceilings with a chandelier in the center. Several doors leading to different rooms, a dining room that had a table that was big enough for a whole class to sit in. There was so much space that you could have the freedom to run around with no furniture to hit you.

Not only did the mansion itself already give out the gist that the Yaoyorozu family was filthy rich, but there were also maids and servants to help out in the house.

“Good morning, Miss Yaoyorozu! Welcome back,” one of the maids greeted her.

“Good morning! Is mother and father here?,” Momo asked.

The maid nodded, “Yes, would you like me to call them down for you?”

“Yes please. Highly appreciated that,” Momo smiled and soon the maid walked away and head upstairs to call her parents.

“You have a lot of people working here,” Yosetsu pointed out.

“Yup, since my mother and father work quite a lot, we need people to help take care of the house and clean. Because this house is quite big, it makes sense that we need a bit more help to get the job done quickly,” she explained.

Momo then held Yosetsu’s hand and led him to the living room where they could wait. She knows that Yosetsu would probably get lost in this place since this is the first time he’s visited here. They both sat down as Momo rested her head on her boyfriend’s shoulder.

“You know, I’m quite excited for my parents to meet you,” she said.

“Really?”

“Mhm! Whenever I would talk about you to them, they actually would get interested in you,” she replied.

“Well, I don’t seem that interesting to a lot of people,” Yosetsu admitted.

“You may think that, but I don’t and my parents don’t either,” Momo kissed him on the cheek and nuzzled her head in the crook of his neck.

He slightly blushed and smiled at her. Yosetsu was thankful he ended up with Momo, not because she was his crush to begin with, but because she was one of the people who would make him smile and feel better.

          A minute passed and soon, Momo’s parents came down the stairs. They soon entered the living room where Yosetsu and Momo were and they soon noticed them. As her parents entered the room, Momo stood up and walked to them as she gave her mom and dad a hug.

“Mom, dad!! It’s been a while,” Momo said happily as they broke the hug.

“It really has! We have so much catching up to do, don’t we?,” the mother of Momo agreed.

Yosetsu didn’t know if he was supposed to say something or just wait. Seeing Momo’s parents in person still made him nervous especially if Momo isn’t beside him now.

“I see that you’ve brought your boyfriend here, right,” Momo’s father questioned as he noticed Yosetsu sitting on the couch.

“Oh yes!,” Momo walked towards Yosetsu and pulled him towards her as she introduced him to her parents, “Mother, father, this is Yosetsu Awase. I’ve been talking about him for quite some time now.”

Yosetsu brought out his hand to shake as he greeted them, “H-Hello, it’s nice to finally meet you both.”

Momo’s father took his hand and shook it, “Nice to finally meet you too, Awase. It’s a pleasure to be meeting the man of my daughter’s life.”

“And it’s a pleasure to meet the father of the woman of my life,” he replied shyly.

This made them quite shocked by how smooth the delivery of his response was. This made Yosetsu a bit more confident knowing the choice of words he used were good.

Her father chuckled, “You seem like an intelligent man, Awase. Come on, let’s go have something to eat.”

“Momo has told so many stories about you, Awase. She couldn’t stop rambling about how much she liked you,” Momo’s mother giggled.

“Really?,” Yosetsu questioned as he turned to Momo whose face was red.

“Y-Yeah but let’s not talk about that,” Momo nervously laughed as they made their way to the dining area.

          Yosetsu started off to be nervous and shy, as meeting rich people especially when they are parents of your girlfriend was always a fear he had. However, it turns out he just needed some reassurance and needed to be himself.
