"You want me to what now?" your voice is unnecessarily high pitched.
"Meet my parents." Taehyung gives you that awkward Chrissy Teigen meme smile. "Listen—I know it sounds crazy and horrifying but they're really nice..."
"But why?"
"It's my fault...I didn't consider having my sister on social media...and I keep posting you and she told my parents and they're real excited about me having a girlfriend...and I don't want to crush them."
You and Taehyung are seated on your living room couch, enjoying a lazy Thursday afternoon after classes. He brings his cup of water to his lips and takes some generous gulps.
"Listen, y/n I will literally pay another month's worth of coffee...please just think about it."
More free coffee? Fuck, that's kind of a steal considering how expensive that shit is and you no doubt have an addiction.
"...fine..." you say hesitantly, "when?"
"Really?" Taehyung lights up like a spot light, "Well, I was thinking this weekend?"
"T-This weekend? That soon? Which day?"
Taehyung showcases a sheepish grin as he rubs the back of his neck, a habit of his no doubt.
"Like, the whole weekend."
Your eyebrows crawl to the top of your head as you gape at him, "What do you mean?"
"Like, we would get there in time for dinner on Friday, then stay all day Saturday and leave Sunday morning before they leave for church. Unless you wanna go to church with th—"
"No, not really." You run your fingers through your long strands, "Holy shit, okay we are doing this." You nod to yourself, "What's our story? You know they're going to ask."
"Huh? Uh...just the truth. I met you through Jungkook and we hit it off and we started dating."
You sigh to yourself, wishing that were actually true.
"Just be yourself, y/n." Taehyung smiles at you. You beam back at him, and his boxy smile only grows wider. "They'll like you, it's not that hard to..." his hand reaches for yours, your palms are a bit sweaty since you are feeling like a nervous wreck at the thought of meeting his parents.
Suddenly, the front door swings open and in comes your best friend (who is still mad at you). He walks in slowly eyeing the two of you on the sofa. He notices Taehyungs hand wrapped around yours and Taehyung quickly pulls away. Jungkook takes a look at your face, you're lost in thought, nibbling on your bottom lip.
Jungkook is yes, still mad at you but also, since he jacked it to your face he is being a little nicer. But as much as he has tried not to have those type of thoughts of you before, it's not like he hasn't. So, he's gotten good at pretending all is well.
"What's with her?" Jungkook pries, walking closer to the sofa.
"Noth—"
"I'm meeting Tae's parents." You cut in to say.
Jungkook's brows crease as he looks between you and Taehyung. He shakes his head in disbelief, stepping closer to the two of you.
"You've got to be kidding me." Jungkook mutters under his breath. "You're going this far?" now Jungkook's face is tilted towards Taehyung. "Why are you going this far dude?" Taehyung stands to his feet, "I—"
