QUIII hello. I hope this lives up to your expectations😌💕I went with meeting the WHOLE family, I hope that's okay!
Haikyuu!! Boys Meeting Your Family
Characters: Washio, Akaashi, Kunimi, Iwaizumi, Hoshiumi, Komori, Numai and Suna
Warnings: Second hand embarrassment (honestly it could've been worse), dads trying (some succeeding, some failing) to be intimidating, use of father/mother, siblings, aunt/uncle, grandparents & cousins.
Washio Tatsuki:
Honestly- you’re like 98% sure you’re family is more scared of him than he is of them LOL
Your dad opens up the door, expecting to scare off the ‘punk’ his daughter dragged home and is instead met with the most intimidating stare he’s ever had to lock eyes with.
You really almost lost your composure as you saw your dad’s eyes widen before he cleared his throat and introduced himself, your boyfriend politely introducing himself and shaking your father’s hand.
You watched as one by one your family members all reacted to your tall, stoic and intimidating boyfriend.
You started to get worried they really would be too intimidated by him to be normal until-
Your little cousin tugged on Washio’s pant leg, and you saw the short flash of panic in his gaze.
Washio wasn’t scared of kids, actually he loved them.
…he just didn’t have the best track record with them liking him.
“...up..” your cousin was only 2, so in his fearless little brain he just sees someone tall and thinks ‘fun’.
Your family watches with mixed reactions, waiting to see how he’d react.
He looked over to you, and when you nodded that it was okay, he bent down and gently picked the child up, cracking a small smile when your cousin giggled.
You’re sure you saw hearts in your aunts eyes- too bad auntie, he’s yours >:)
If that didn’t win him over, then his offer to wash dishes after dinner did them in.
Safe to say, your boyfriend has become a treasured member of the family and if you two break up…they may never forgive you.
Akaashi Keiji:
He is stressed.
What if they don’t like what he wears? What if they think he’s too quiet? What if he tries to talk more to be less quiet but he says stupid things? What if-
“Keiji, baby, you’re spiraling again…aren't you?”
Akaashi is a great guy, you know it, fukurodani knows it, and you know your family is going to love him.
You just wish he could know how great he is too- maybe he wouldn’t be fiddling with his hands and borderline pacing outside of your front door.
He tenses up when your father pats his back and ushers him inside, but he gets himself together enough to properly introduce himself.
You hide your laugh as your dad sneaks an impressed glance your way, “covertly” giving you a thumbs up as he takes him to meet the family.
Back off dad- you saw him first✋🙄
Just as expected, everyone is absolutely enthralled with your boyfriend. He’s smart, handsome, humble AND athletic-
He blows everyone's socks off when he gives intelligent and sensical input during one of the conversations during dinner.
Where did you find this guy- harvard?!
They don’t even try to hide how impressed they are, giving you a wonderful view of the pinkness of Akaashi’s ears and the little throat clear he does before returning to his meal.
You are gonna have to establish your dominance in your family since several people have stated “if you two break up- we’re keeping him, you can go.”
Kunimi Akira:
“Are you ready to meet them?” “Yeah, why wouldn’t I be?”
He seemed cool as a cucumber, like the thought of meeting your whole family didn’t terrify him just a little.
You knew better though, he had been stressing about it since you had asked him.
The initial meetings go over well enough, he gives short answers but doesn't outwardly appear annoyed or smug towards them.
More so he just has on his usual face of complete and total indifference.
One of your relatives says something minorly offensive? Doesn't phase him one bit.
One of your little cousins runs head first into his leg? No reaction.
Your family begins to wonder if he's capable of such feelings at all.
And then you bring up the time you watched kindaichi whack his head on a door frame and it happens-
As bright as day for the whole table to see a smile broke out on his face as he shook his head, muttering a 'that idiot'.
He was a tough nut to crack but you knew that with time, he was gonna fit in just fine.
Now to make sure they don't ever discover how lazy he is…
Iwaizumi Hajime:
Is there a better guy to bring home? You're really not sure there is.
He's respectful, returns your fathers handshake with an equal (if not greater) amount of force, has good conversation with your aunts and grandma, and gets on great with your siblings.
You can tell your dad is trying not to like him- it's obvious with the scowl he has on and the twitch his eyebrow does every time iwaizumi says something he can't refute.
You know it's over when your boyfriend brings up sports- something your father is quite the fan of. It's really over when they find out they like the same team.
Safe to say he manages to win over your entire family within 30 minutes, and when he’s gearing up to leave has like 3 different people inviting him to the next event.
After the meeting you are constantly being bugged about him- when is he coming over next? Is Hajime going to be there? When are you two going to get married?
Actually you’re starting to wonder if they like him more than you…
Scratch that, you know the answer- but admitting it would boost your boyfriend’s ego, so better not.
Hoshiumi Korai:
By law he's a menace to society- now is no different.
It all seems to go well at first; he's surprisingly humble when introducing himself (he only mentioned volleyball like twice), he doesn't say anything super offensive and he seems to be behaving himself.
And then it happens..the inevitable mention of his height- or rather lack thereof.
Your aunt and uncle show up a little late- understandably so since they're kids were still little.
Their oldest child is 7, which means he's old enough to converse but not quite old enough to know that some thoughts should stay just that- a thought.
You really thought this would go over without incident- it had been 30 minutes and he hadn't done anything questionable!
Then your cousin walked right up to him, cocked his head to the side and said those dreadful words-
"Aren't you short for a volleyball player? I thought they had to be tall."
You could've sworn you watched a VEIN pop on his forehead, and before you could react you heard it, the "HUUUHHHH?!?!"
He began his rant- only to have it muffled when you slapped your hand over his mouth, calmly asking your cousin not to mention his…stature.
Komori Motoya:
Is it possible for someone NOT to like him? You weren't sure, and you hoped tonight wouldn't be the night you got proved wrong.
You couldn't tell if he was genuinely excited or trying to cope with his nervousness- but he seemed legitimately happy to be meeting them.
Your fathers intimidation tactics? No effect
The overwhelming amount of interactions from your mom, grandma and aunts? He happily engages in conversation(s).
Jumpy little energetic cousins? Plays with them and becomes their new favorite person.
If someone in your family didn't like him they sure were good at hiding it cause by the end of the night your dad is laughing at his jokes, your mom is cooing over his endearing stories of you, and when he leaves literally everyone is begging you never to break up with him.
If he ever misses a family gathering in the future you are immediately hounded with "where is he?!" Like you're not standing right there smh🙄
Numai Kazuma:
He's a nervous wreck- his words not mine.
"H-hi, sir! I'm Numai Kazuma!" You watched as the hand he stuck out for a handshake shook just a teeny tiny bit.
Your dad nodded, introduced himself and shook your boyfriend's hand- a little harder than necessary might I add.
Your dad clapped him on the back and invited him inside.
You had warned numai before hand that your dad can be…a little too protective. You know he had good intentions- he wants you to be safe and happy!
But he can be a bit much, and now was no exception.
Your dad lead him into the living room where all the men in the family were waiting.
You watched as his face blanched, quickly turning to you for immediate assistance.
Knowing not even you could stop this interrogation from happening, you just shrugged and let him know you'd be right back, quickly exiting to build your "save my boyfriend" squad.
Once your cool aunt, siblings and grandmother had gathered, you all dragged Numai into the kitchen where they all began to absolutely rave about your "handsome strong young man!" Of a boyfriend.
So yeah- after being scared straight by your father, he gains a fanclub that will never stop asking you questions about him.
Suna Rintaro:
I don't know if trainwreck is the right word…but it certainly comes close.
Its not like he did anything bad per se, for the majority of the evening he was being his normal stoic quiet self.
All in all he was behaving himself- or he did for most of the evening anyway.
Although he comes across as the 'super respectful and stand up guy' at his core suna is still a lord of chaos- intent on witnessing the twins' mischief and dedicated to getting anything and everything on film.
So who was he to not laugh when your toddler cousin happened to trip on air and face plant?!
To make it slightly better…he wasn't the only one who laughed, your family just didn't expect your quiet reclusive boyfriend to bust out laughing when your cousin tripped.
By the end of the night at least 90% of your family is ready to adopt him as one; your grandparents, aunts/uncles, cousins and your mom/siblings all love him.
Your dad? He's not so sure…
