I was gonna publish on Valentine's but school said no so here we are :(
This might be long so strap in;)

Waking up, I hear music playing quietly in the kitchen, and someone humming in it. Getting out of bed, I open the bedroom door and peek around the corner to see Haida humming while cooking breakfast. I smile and continue listening while walking behind him. He has headphones on and he's jamming hard so I don't think he can hear me. He turned around to grab a spoon and nearly hit the ceiling when he saw me that's how high he jumped. I laugh as he remembers to breathe while also laughing.

"Good morning Y/N." "Morning, Haida." He smiles and I walk off back to the bedroom to get dressed. I put on my favorite plaid red shirt and black jeans, went to the bathroom and brushed my teeth, fixed my hair(fur?), and walked out of the bathroom to see Haida setting down the rest of the food. He smiles, "This took two cookbooks and a fire extinguisher on deck." I chuckle and sit down with him, smiling and making jokes while we eat. He gets orange juice on the rim of his mouth and I wipe it with my thumb smiling, while he sits there blushing.

We finish eating and I put the plates in the sink, choosing to wash them later. Haida walks out dressed as well and I mess up his fur on purpose snickering. He pouts and walks back to the bathroom to fix it. he walks out again with his hands up and I just laugh. "You're so cute angry," I say as I boop his nose and his face becomes flustered and red. "W-whatever," he says knowing I'm right. "Are you ready to go?" "You still haven't told me where." "Oh yeah, my bad. I wanted you to meet my parents since we've been dating for a while." "Parent is a big step. Are you sure we're ready?" "We better be, because they're supposed to meet us at a Cafe in 30 minutes."

"You're just now choosing to disclose this information??" "Yup, so let's go." He sighs and follows me out of the apartment. We arrive at the Cafe and I can see Haida visibly nervous, but I just pat his shoulder and grab his hand walking in. My parents are sitting in the corner talking, and I smile at their picture-perfect relationship. I walk over with Haida, and they look up and smile at me, my dad being cool and 'mysterious', though I read him like a book. My mom has a warm smile, and I can see Haida relax a little around her, she has that effect on people. We sit down and start talking.

"How's my slugger been," my dad says grinning. "I've been good dad," I say smiling. "Have you been eating enough? Do you feel tired? Are you sick? Have you been to a doctor recently-" "I'm fine mom," I say while Haida snickers next to me. "So who is this guy," my dad says looking at Haida. "Oh that's my boyfri-" I stop thinking about it. "That's.........my friend," I say looking down awkwardly. My mom grins and I look at her signaling to not be so obvious about it. "The name is Haida sir," he says shaking my dad's hand. "Well Haida, have you known my son for a while?" "Well yeah, we've been friends since high school." "Friends huh," my mom says with a suspicious look.

"Well I'm going to go get drinks for us, what do you guys want?" "Coffee please," said Haida and mom almost in unison. The people I love are addicts. "Green tea," said my dad. I walk off to get the drinks when I bump into a familiar face. "Hi again," said that familiar face. "Nico." "Yup. How have you been?" "Good. You?" "I've been better. This week has not been the greatest." "Now I'm curious," I say with a small chuckle. "Well, my boyfriend cheated on me with my best friend, the only family I had left was hospitalized last week and in critical condition, and my mental health plummeted in a week." "Oh. I'm sorry to hear that, and if you need someone I can be that someone," I say giving him my number. "Thanks." "Well I was here with people, so I should probably go."

I get the drinks and go back to the table. "What took you so long," said my father with a smile but also a hint of agitation. "Sorry, I ran into a friend. Here is your coffee, mom. Your coffee, Haida, and your tea, dad." I sit down and we continue talking. "So why did you have us come down here? I know it wasn't for coffee," says my dad curiously. "I'm gonna tell you, but not yet. This is one of my favorite cafés, so let's get some food," I say stalling. "I'll help you," says Haida with a questioning look. We go to the counter to order food, but Haida drags me to the bathroom quickly.

I stare at him with a look demanding an explanation. "Who was that you were talking to?" "Just someone I had met some time ago." "Are you sure, he seemed very open around you, and I know because I've watched Retsuko around other guys-" He sits there silent, but I just choose to ignore it. "He was going through something so I had just offered to be someone to talk to, that was it." As I say that my ringtone goes off in my pocket. "Speak of the devil," Haida says. I roll my eyes and answer. "Hey. So about your offer, I think we should meet up next Thursday if that works for you." "I will check my schedule." "Thanks." "What are you checking your schedule for," Haida says slightly annoyed. "He wants to meet up next Thursday." Haida sighs and walks out. I get the food and Haida walks back with the condiments.

"So why did you really want to meet us here, no excuses, no stalling," says my dad with an agitated tone. I look at Haida, and he nods smiling. "So, about what I said earlier, Haida is not just my friend, he's my boyfriend." My dad chokes on his tea and looks at me wide-eyed. Mom chuckles but not for long because my dad slams his hands on the table and all eyes are on us. "So we raise you all these years, and you turn out to be this....this fag." "Dad what the hell?!" "Get out of my face." I walk out pissed with a single tear on my face.

HAIDA POV(it's been a while lol)

I was shocked at what Y/N's dad had said. "Respectfully, you should not have said that." "And where is it your place to tell me what I should say?" "It's not my place, but I am his boyfriend and I bet you wouldn't like it if your wife was disrespected." "That right there, 'boyfriend', it just shows how people these days think they can be whatever they want." "Well what I am is very proud of your son and I love him more than I thought possible. So if you're gonna treat him like that, then I don't think I wanna meet you again." I walk off to comfort Y/N.

Y/N POV

I sit on the curb boiling with anger. How could my father, he who was my hero, say that? I sit with my anger until Haida walks out and sits next to me. "How could he say that to me?" "I don't know, but I don't think either of us wants to be here, so let's just go home." "What did you say to him?" "What?" "You were in there longer, so you said something to him." "I told him that you're an amazing person, and if he won't see that, then I won't see him." "That's pretty badass," I say laughing, and Haida laughs as well. He notices me staring and gives a "what's that for" type of look. "You're just really beautiful," I say as his cheeks glow a bright red. "So are you," he says and mine glow as well.

I lean into a kiss, but he hesitates. "What if people see?" "What if? I don't care about them, I care about you." I kiss him and he doesn't hesitate this time. "Let's go home," he says with a smile. "Sure, but give me a minute." I walk back into the Cafe and put 25 dollars(about 4000 yen) on the table. "That should be enough. Goodbye, dad." I walk out confidently and grab Haida's hand walking to the car. We drive home being flirty and joking around. We get home, change into pajamas and fall onto the couch to watch tv. We watch old black-and-white movies as it rains outside. I lay my head on his shoulder, and he puts an arm around my waist, cuddling closer to me. "I love you." "I love you too."
