"Dinner’s ready," Shoto said, his voice even as always, unaware of the underlying tension in the dining area. He pulled out your chair for you, ever the gentleman, and you sat down beside him, offering everyone a small smile.

Rei, smiled back warmly, though there was a hint of nervousness in her expression. Fuyumi, waved cheerfully, offering you a polite nod. Natsuo was leaned back in his chair, arms crossed, and then, there was Endeavor—sitting at the head of the table, his usual stern look in place, though he was trying, in his own way, to keep things civil.

"So," Natsuo started, glancing at Shoto with a teasing smirk, "how’d you manage to drag this one into dating you, huh?"

Shoto’s face remained calm, but you could see the corner of his mouth twitch slightly. "I didn’t drag her anywhere," he said, his voice cool as always. "She came willingly."

"Oh, willingly, huh?" Fuyumi chimed in, leaning forward with a playful glint in her eye. "I bet you froze her in place until she agreed."

You chuckled softly, giving Shoto a teasing glance. "You know, it was pretty cold the day we met."

Shoto sighed, shaking his head as his siblings laughed. "Very funny," he muttered under his breath, though you could see the faint smile tugging at his lips.

Rei reached for a dish, her hand slightly trembling as she tried to engage in conversation. "So, how did you two meet?" she asked, her voice gentle but curious. You could tell she was trying to ease the awkwardness between you and her.

"Well," you began, glancing at Shoto for support, "we actually met at a hero charity event. I was volunteering, and Shoto was… well, being a hero." You smiled, remembering how awkward he had been even then, though his calm demeanor had quickly won you over.

Rei’s eyes softened, her smile growing as she listened. "That’s wonderful," she said quietly, as if relieved to hear something light-hearted.

Meanwhile, Fuyumi leaned toward you, her voice low but playful. "Does he still do that thing where he doesn’t realize he’s staring at you? He used to do that all the time when we were younger."

"Oh yeah, definitely. I catch him all the time." You stifled a laugh, glancing at Shoto.

"You’re not helping." Shoto sighed again, giving Fuyumi a deadpan look.

Natsuo chuckled, nudging Shoto with his elbow. "Hey, it’s cute. You finally learned how to be a normal person around someone. We’re proud of you, bro."

Shoto slumped in defeat and the tension in the room had eased, the teasing and laughter from his siblings broke through the initial awkwardness.

As dinner continued, you found yourself engaged in small talk with Endeavor, though it was clear he was struggling with it. "So," he began, clearing his throat, "how is Shoto… treating you?"

It was an awkward question, and for a moment, you weren’t sure how to answer. "He’s… wonderful," you said, smiling warmly at Shoto, who was currently distracted by Fuyumi trying to feed him something from her plate. "He’s always so thoughtful and supportive."

Endeavor gave a slow nod, his face unreadable. "That’s good. That’s… important."

"Yeah, wonder who he gets it from..." Natsuo quipped, as he deadpanned. Umm...

There was an awkward pause, and Rei quickly jumped in, her voice a little more eager. "Yes! Shoto’s always been so caring. I’m glad he’s found someone who appreciates that."

You smiled at her, grateful for the save, and soon, the conversation shifted back to more casual topics—Fuyumi telling stories about her students and Natsuo bickering playfully with Shoto, who's finally loosening up as he quietly joined in the teasing.

"This is nice," Shoto stated, referring to having everyone here for dinner. "I would like to do this again sometime. No time soon, but sometime." He continued, a small smile crawling to the sides of his mouth.

"Yeah, no time soon." You chuckled, but wholeheartedly agreed.
