"What outfit do you think would be best for meeting his parents?" Olivia asked you from the walk-in closet, you were seated on the couple's queen-sized bed with multiple comforters and pillows on it. The both of you were in Olivia and Gojo's shared bedroom, it was looked really fancy and over-decorated, you questioned whether they even stayed in this room with how perfectly placed everything was. You kicked your shoes off and laid down on their bed, your head resting onto the multiple pillows placed in front of the headboard. "Probably something modest. Simple and classy, that kind of vibe." You said, not really focusing on what she should wear, you just wanted to go home.

"But Gojo's quite a flashy person, maybe he'd want me to wear something like this?" As she said this, she came out with a dark blue dress with a plunge neckline, hanging it in front of her body to show you. You shook your head once you saw it, telling her it might be 'too revealing' for his parents, to which she scoffed and re-entered the closet.   "Do you know what his parents are like?" You asked, you had always thought that when you met a significant other's parent you had to dress up incredibly modest, but Gojo's parents might not even care. Olivia took a moment to respond, the rustling and clanking of hangers to the floor stopping as she thought of your question. "I'm not too sure, actually." You furrowed your eyebrows at this response, and almost like she could see your expression all the way from the closet, she elaborated. "He doesn't really talk about his parents." She came out of the closet to talk more on your question. "It's like anytime I try to ask him about personal stuff he always avoids it."

"Like he's dismissive?" She nodded her head to your question, you sat up as she continued to speak. "That's how he's always been, though. He hates being serious, or just opening up in general." She shrugged before going back in the closet to look for clothes. "Maybe his parents are like that." You conspired.

"Like what?" She asked.

"Very serious." You thought aloud, imagining two wealthy Japanese parents who were  rich and incredibly good-looking. "So, you're saying I should go with something more like this?" The brunette came out with a simple black dress on a hanger, it looked like a bodycon with a simple neckline. "Are they rich?" You asked as you looked at the dress, she nodded. "Then, no. Go with a jumpsuit instead. A short-sleeve one." Olivia immediately came back out with a basic navy-coloured jumpsuit, flaring towards the bottom, you nodded at this piece. "Wear heels with it and if it's too cold, wear a black trench-coat and you're good!"

"What about jewellery?" Olivia asked. You stared at the jumpsuit as Olivia stared back at you, waiting for your answer.

"Wear silver with it, a ring and a necklace that isn't too dangly." 

Olivia squealed at your approval, giving you a hug. "Thank you so much!" She said with a big smile and she definitely would have continued if it weren't for her phone ringing. "Oh , it's work." She went back in to the walk in closet and it only took a matter of minutes for her to come out of it with an apologetic look on her face. "I have to go now, that really important client I have wants to see one of my biggest listings!" You nodded your head. "That's fine, that's fine!" You got up to follow her out as she put her coat on, following her down the stairs and seeing Suguru, Toji and Sukuna making their way out of the house at the same time Olivia was. You continued to follow your best friend, walking past the group of men who were still saying their farewells, hoping you could make it into her car and go home. "Wait!" She said to you, getting her car keys out of her purse. "You can't come with me."

"Why not?" You asked. "'Cause I have to go straight there, [Name]!"

"It's fine I'll just get a cab." You started to get your phone out of your pocket before your best friend stopped you. "Could you just stay back for me, please? I've got a few things to still pack." Your shoulders dropped with annoyance as your best friend begged for you to stay back. "I'll drop you at home after, I'll try to be quick, I promise." You didn't bother objecting, just nodding your head at her as she thanked you. "Thank you, thank you, thank you, [Name]!" She gave you a very quick hug before moving to her car and continuing on. "I've got a small note that's got all the things I should have packed in my suitcases. Thank you again!"
