You and Mattheo are in the car, driving to a restaurant. It was the first time your family was gonna meet Mattheo, he was a little nervous but he didn’t show it.

You look at the road as the music was humming softly in the background.

“Are you sure they will like me? What if they disapprove?” Mattheo says frowningly while driving. You chuckle and answer, “I’m sure they’ll love you Matt. My family is a bit strange but it’ll be alright.”

After ten minutes you arrive, you straighten your long dress as Mattheo fixes his tie. The dinner was a bit formal, but it was someone’s birthday, no one was gonna act all uptight.

You and Mattheo walk into the restaurant and you spot your family, your grandma walks over and sizes Mattheo up and down.

“Is this the boyfriend?” She whispers to you and you nod while smiling. Mattheo looked way different than your family, his brown curls stood out in your basic looking family.

You nudge Mattheo and you two sit down at the table, your family begins talking immediately.

Your aunt: “He’s a handsome fella.”

Your niece to her mum: “Mummy.. he’s scary.”
