i hug my mom as i walk back into the house as milo walks inside. "how was the trip?" i ask, letting go of the hug. "it was beautiful there, we should go for a holiday!" she replies, smiling. we talk about her trip for a few minutes as we sit on the couch. "we're having dinner, right?" i ask. "yeah, of course. i feel so bad i missed it!" she says. "it's okay, we'll have dinner." i say, standing up. "by the way, your grandma and grandpa's coming for dinner too." she says. "okay, what time?" i ask, starting to go up the stairs. "about... an hour or two." she replies. i head up the stairs, taking out my phone.

i turn my phone off, turning my tv on. i go to disney plus, resuming watching wandavision. after about an hour and a half, there's a knock on the door. i turn off the tv, walking downstairs. i greet my grandparents, and we decide to go out for dinner. we all get in my car and i start it up, buckling up. "you're so grown up, y/n! already driving and everything." grandma says. "yeah, i started driving years ago." i say, chuckling.

we begin to eat, and i place the fork in my mouth, taking it out once the food was in my mouth. "so, do you have a girlfriend or boyfriend yet?" grandpa asks. the question every family wants to know. "yeah, i do actually. her name's olivia." i say, smiling. they looked shocked, but then hides it, but a little too late. "can we see what she looks like?" grandma asks, and i pull out my phone. i scroll through my camera roll, tapping on a photo of liv and i.

i turn my phone around, showing my grandma and grandpa as mom looks too. "this is her," i say with a beaming smiling. their eyes widen at the same time, smiling too as i pull my phone back to me, placing it in my pocket. "she's so pretty!" grandpa compliments. i chuckle, nodding as grandma agrees. "how did you guys meet?" grandma asks. "well she's a singer, and she was looking for a guitarist. i applied, and she accepted. and it just went from there, i guess!" i say, finishing my food as i hear 'awe's' from my mom and my grandparents. "how long have you guys been dating?" mom asks. "uh... almost a year," i recall. 

olivia's pov

it's been around 3 or 4 hours since y/n texted me, and i assume she's busy with her family. i scroll on tiktok, my eyes lighting up as i see a tiktok of y/n, posted an hour ago. i pause the video, reading the caption. "y/n out with her family!" it reads. i press play, watching it. the camera was a few tables away, but close enough to see y/n clearly. i watch the video with a grin as y/n turns her phone to her grandparents with a wide smile. i recognise the familiar photo, from when we went to eat with conan and iris. her grandparent's back was towards the camera, so i couldn't see what their reaction was. oh my god... what if they thought i wasn't good enough for y/n? y/n pulls her phone away after a few seconds, chuckling as she talks again. the video stops as the camera pulls down, and i open the comments. "Y/N SHOWING HER FAMILY OLIVIA STOP" "what did y/n show her family?" "where's olivia :((" "omg is y/n showing her grandparents olivia?" "y/n looks so happy when she's talking about olivia i love their relationship sm" i smile, swiping out of the app. 

i get a face time notification from the top of my screen, pressing accept. "hey!" y/n says, in her bed. "hey, baby!" i reply, smiling. "how was dinner?" i ask. "it was great, my grandparents came too." she says, petting milo beside her. "yeah, i know." i say, giggling as y/n gives me a confused look. "huh? what do you mean?" she asks, furrowing her eyebrows. "someone posted a tiktok an hour ago, and i saw it." i explain. "let me show you it, actually." i say, swiping out of facetime as i go onto tiktok. i copy the link, sending it to y/n via messages. "did you get it?" i ask, going back to facetime. "yeah, let me watch it." she says. we stay silent until y/n laughs, making me laugh. "you showed me to your grandparents?!" i ask, y/n nodding as she continues to laugh. eventually her laughter dies down and i smile at y/n as she talks. "yeah, i did. they asked if i had a girlfriend or boyfriend, and i showed them a photo of you and i." y/n explains. "you could've shown a better photo!" i groan. "no, you look perfect. you are perfect." y/n says softly. my cheeks get red, and y/n chuckles at the sight. "if you're that worried, don't be. you'll meet them soon enough." she says, smiling as i smile.

i watch amusingly as y/n screen shared her screen, showing me she's on tiktok. "i can literally give you my account, olivia," she says as she scrolls to the next tiktok. i laugh at what she said, and y/n swipes out of the app. she goes to messages, clicking my name. i smile at the contact name and contact photo, it being a picture of both of us. y/n types her username and password into the textbox, sending it. "there you go." she says, swiping out. my phone vibrates as i get the message, smiling.

the time was now almost 12:30am, and we hang up as y/n was getting tired. i lay in bed, smiling as i type y/n's account username and password into the tiktok login page. seconds later, i'm in the page. i go to the 'for you page', watching her tiktoks for a few more minutes.
