Meeting the Parents

[Last Last Author's notes: Okay I know I said I did my last author's note but this is important. So I know the day after Sojiro finds out about Akira and Futaba being Phantom Thieves the group gets the news that they have a 3 million yen bounty of them. But, in this story it's going to happen on Monday and the whole Akechi thing is going to be throughout the whole week. Nothing completely drastic just pushing the game story two days ahead. Just so I don't confuse you guys.]

Shibuya

The Next Day

Diner

Akira and Ann were sitting in a booth eating. Since they had to wait for Akechi, they figured that they'll spend the time off from the Metaverse together.

"It feels like forever since we last went out on a date.""I've always wanted to ask this, why do you get to go on dates with Akira, but I can't with Arsene…" Carmen whispered. "And what are you two supposed to do?" "Let him hold me and kiss him for hours I'm fine with just that."

"Yeah, even though the last time we ate out somewhere together was at the culture festival with Ryuji and Hifumi." "I wonder how they are doing together."

Ann smiled, "You know, I wonder how they are doing as well; I keep forgetting to ask him." "Hopefully they are doing well. Ryuji has a way of speaking before thinking"

Akira laughed, "I'm sure they're doing fine. Ryuji would have been calling me in panic if he was having trouble with Hifumi." "I'm sure she doesn't mind him speaking before thinking. She even said that she likes him the way he is now."

"Yeah, Ryuji would do something like that." "That young man isn't bad; he just needs to learn to think before speaking."

"Anyways, is there anything you want to do Ann?" "Well you kind of do that when it comes to sexual things."

"But, I'm an seductress, of course I like to talk about sexual things." "Actually, I've been wanting to ask you something. I was wondering if you wanted to meet my parents." Carmen squealed.

"Well she's ready to move to the next step huh?" "In my time, this would be considered a step towards marriage." Arsene whispered. "Yeah, and like I said before, I'm not sure she's not ready for that, hell I'm not." Akira held her hand, "I would like to."

Ann squealed, "Yes! Um, do you want to come over tomorrow?" "Oh, I can't wait to see this!"

"Yeah that sounds good. So as a precaution, how big and strong is your father?" "Yeah I kind of imagine Ann's father being a big and strong guy."

Ann laughed, "Big and strong? He's like the size of Yusuke and kind of flamboyant." "Ann's father is basically where Ann gets her blond hair and blue eyes as well as most of her personality from."

"Well that's interesting…" "Well I'm no longer worried then.""So I'm assuming you mother is the one, how did Ryuji say it, who wears the pants of the marriage?"

Ann laughed again, "Yeah basically, she's the one who runs the business aspect of their company. She's really nice though but can be stern just make sure you don't get her mad." "Don't forget she's where you get your teasing abilities from." Carmen whispered. "Please don't remind me…"

Akira laughed, "Well now I know where you get your anger from. I can't wait to meet them though." "I'm excited to meet them too."

"Well should we get going then to get ready for tomorrow? Besides it's getting late." "You know, I usually hate when we have to be apart. But, I think tomorrow would be worth it."

"Yeah let's get going then." "Yeah tomorrow should be interesting."

After School

Akira and Ann started walking on the street where Ann said that her house was located. Ann looked to the side and noticed Akira tensing up making her laugh, "Don't be so worried, my parents are nice people." "Yeah, I'm sure they'll love you darling."

Akira sighed, "Well yeah, but aren't guys usually supposed to be afraid of their girlfriends parents?" "He does have a point."

"Yeah? And aren't girls supposed to act like a sweet girl but I called your ex-dad a fucking dick." "Yeah, but he deserved it though." "Besides didn't…Emily, have you meet her parents?"

"Well I met her parents before we confessed to each other and they loved me." "Maybe you should have lied there." Arsene whispered.

Ann looked down, "Oh…well I guess that's nice." "Would you stop being up that vile woman?" Carmen whispered.

Akira laughed, "You know, it's cute when you're jealous." "Good job, you just opened Pandora's Box."

Ann glared at Akira going red in the face, "Hey! I am not jealous of Emily!" "You're really not disproving his point dear."

"Seriously though Ann, I've proven to you many times that I will only love you." "Where have I heard that before…"

"Hey! Don't take my words and use them against me!" "But, he does have a point though. He has shown you plenty of times he's only loves you." Ann sighed, "Yeah, you're both right, sorry." Ann looked back forward and seen that they were by her house which pretty big but not as big as Haru's. It was light blue and looked tall enough to have two floors with two big windows by the door on each side and two small windows on the upper part of the building which Akira presumed where the rooms were at. There was a garage next to the house with a pathway leading to the front door of the house and there was a white car and a light blue car in the driveway.

Akira looked at the house with interest, "Well this is…unique." "You can say that again."

Ann sighed, "Yeah…the light blue coloring is because it's my dad's favorite color. I'm still surprised mom even allowed this. So, of course, we have people outside looking at the house with confusion…and sometimes laughter." "Yeah your father may be a famous fashion designer but when it comes to color for a house, he's terrible." "Anyways, you ready to go in?"

"Yeah, I'm ready." "Good luck."

Ann and Akira started walking up to the door. They made it to the front door which was white. Ann knocked on the door and Akira heard a male say 'coming'. The door opened and a man around thirty-four with short blond hair and light blue eyes wearing a light blue collared shirt with white dress pants and was wearing white dress shoes as well.

"Princess? Why did you knock on your…own…door?" The man started speaking slowly noticing Akira, "And who may you be?"

"Well dad this is Akira…my boyfriend."

"Your boyfriend!? You never told me you had a boyfriend!"

Akira looked at Ann with amusement, "So Ann…why did you hide me from your father?"

"W-well, I-I didn't think you would approve of him…"

Ann's father looked at her with sadness, "Don't lie to me! You're embarrassed of your dad!"

Ann was starting to feel bad, "Hey! I'm not embarrassed of you! You're the greatest dad ever!"

Akira was trying his hardest not to laugh, "This is beyond hilarious." "Yeah I definitely see that she gets her personality from her father."

"Honey? Who's at the door and why are you yelling?" A woman around thirty-five with long brown hair that went to her waist wearing a white cardigan buttoned up and wearing a black long skirt with black heels came to the door, "Oh! Hello my dear and who is this handsome young man?"

Ann sighed, "Hey mom, this is Akira…my boyfriend."

Ann's mother put a hand over her mouth gasping, "You finally have a boyfriend! So this is Akira and here I thought you were imagining our mannequin being your boyfriend and called him Akira."

Akira couldn't take it anymore and started laughing, "Y-You imagined me being a mannequin!" Arsene started cracking up laughing as well.

Ann felt like she was going to die from embarrassment and put her head in her hands, "Somebody please kill me…" "Well I was not expecting this."

Ann's mother rubbed her head, "Aw don't be like that dear." She then looked over at Akira, "Now would you like to come in Akira? I would like to know more about the man who stole my dear's heart."

Akira smiled and bowed, "It would be my pleasure, Mrs.…?"

"Oh! Respectful and handsome. You really did get a winner Ann dear. Now my name is Orika Takamaki and this is my husband, Lukas Takamaki."

Lukas started to feel a little jealous, "So you don't think I'm handsome anymore after being with you for fifteen years!?"

Orika smiled and walked behind him hugging him around his neck, "Aw, is my honey jealous that I called another man handsome? Well you'll always my number one most handsome man and to make up for making you jealous, I'm going to wear that lingerie you love and give you the best mouth present I've ever gave you tonight."

Lukas gulped, "O-Okay, I'm not jealous anymore."

Ann looked at her parents in disgust, "Really? I didn't need to hear that…" "You know dear, this could be your future if you just do what I tell you. Just think, you could have Akira be putty in your hands just by words alone." Carmen whispered. "Putty in my hands huh? I like the sound of that!"

Akira looked at the two in amusement, "So Ann's mother is basically Carmen but keeps her teasing somewhat subtle." "Well that explains why Carmen is her hidden self." Arsene whispered

Orika let go of her husband and gestured Akira to come in. Akira and Ann walked into the house. The first thing that Akira noticed is that there was a brown staircase leading upstairs to the second floor that had white walls that covered the upper half of the staircase. To the left was a living room with white walls with a white furry carpet and two light blue large three cushion couches one against the wall facing the entrance and the other facing the opposite side of big window that were touching each other by the corner tip of the arm rests and the open corner between the couches had a small table with a lamp on it. Across the room in front of the big window was a large flat screen TV with a blu-ray player that was on a big white TV stand with movies filling the two selves of the stand. Next to the TV stand were bookshelves filled with pictures. Akira looked to the right and saw another big room with a big table which made him assume that it was a dining room.

"Huh. I've never seen a house that looks like this before." "Maybe it's an American style house."

Orika laughed, "I wouldn't doubt it. When I went to America, I loved their house designs so much that I had a house built with one their designs here. Now come, let's have a seat."

Akira nodded and followed them to the living room. He sat on the couch with Ann seating next to him while her parents sat on the other couch.

"Now Akira, why don't you tell us a little about yourself?"

Akira cleared his throat, "Well I'm top of my class at school and I'm working multiple part time jobs."

Both of Ann's parents looked at Akira with admiration. Lukas smiled at Akira, "Ah, so you're saving to go to college then with all these part-time jobs? How magnificent!"

"I…" Akira looked down in worry because this was the one thing he was afraid to tell Ann's parents. He felt a small soft hand wrap around his and he looked over seeing Ann mouth 'Don't worry, I'm here'. Akira smiled at her then sighed, "I won't be able to go to college because I have a criminal record…"

Orika and Lukas looked at Akira in shock but then Orika glared at Akira that made him worried, "And why do you have a criminal record…Akira?"

Lukas put a hand on his wife's shoulder, "Calm down honey, I'm sure Akira has a perfectly good reason why he has one."

Akira sighed, "Because I was falsely accused of assaulting a woman…"

Orika kept glaring at Akira obliviously not believing him, "And how were you falsely accused of assaulting a woman?"

Akira told them everything that happened including the aftermath. After he got done, Ann's parents started talking to amongst themselves. After they were done they both nodded. Orika then gave Akira a stern look, "It's surprising that this man was able to convince this woman and the police to go after you instead of him. But also, he was able to get the judge to hand you a guilty verdict without proof. It's so unorthodox that we have no reason to believe you.

Akira looked down, "You're right…you have no reason to believe me."

But then Orika smiled, "But seeing how Ann trusts you and loves you. We know that you're not a bad person especially after what my daughter has been through with that Kamoshida, she would have a hard time trusting any man. So…" Orika got up as well as Lukas and they walked up to Akira holding out their hands, "We accept you as Ann's boyfriend and hopefully in the future, part of our family."

Akira got up and shook their hands, "Thank you, Mrs. Takamaki and Mr. Takamaki.""

"You're welcome my dear. There's one thing that we want to know though. After your probation is up, are you going to be moving back in with your parents in your hometown?"

"No, my parents disowned me but now I have a new family here, so I'm going to be living here now."

Orika smiled, "I'm sorry that your parents disowned you but I'm glad that you were able to find a new family. So Akira, now that you're welcomed here, would you be staying for dinner?"

"That sounds nice but only if you would like me to."

Orika laughed, "Of course we would like you to." She looked over at Ann, "Come dear, help me prepare dinner with me." She walked through an archway leading to a back room.

Akira finally noticed the opening, "Huh? I wonder why I didn't notice that doorway." "Because we were too busy being nervous about her parents." "Quiet you."

Ann had a look of confusion since she was never asked to help out with dinner but got up and followed after her mother to the back room that lead to the kitchen.

Kitchen

Ann walked into the kitchen noticing her mother getting everything prepared for their dinner. Ann smiled at her, "Thank you for believing Akira. Even though it looked like that you weren't going to at first."

Orika laughed, "Actually, I believed him right away."

Ann glared at her, "Then why did you act like you didn't believe him!?"

"Because I wanted to test him, if he really was a criminal, he wouldn't be upset about me not believing him. Him being upset proved my point."

Ann smiled remembering the first time she met him, "You know, I thought the same thing when I first met him. He looked so alone that I couldn't believe that he was a criminal."

Orika looked at her with pride, "I'm glad you're able to see that actions speak louder than words my daughter." She then smirked, "So when you told him about his disownment. Did you "comfort" him?"

Ann sighed, "Um, no, I was planning on doing something to make him forget about his disownment. But, he found out when I was ranting to his dad."

Orika glared at her and spoke in a harsh tone, "What do you mean about him finding out? Did you not tell him right away!?"

Ann flinched from her harsh tone, "W-Well I was scared to tell him. Because I was scared to see him hurt or what he would do after he found out…"

Orika sighed, "I guess I understand dear, but next time you need to tell Akira anything that you think would hurt him emotionally and if you're afraid to see him hurt because of it. Then it would be up to you to make him feel better, that's one of the things about being a significant other is. Just like he would do for you and does he do that?"

Ann didn't even skip a beat, "He always does."

"That's great to hear. Anyways, just look at what I did with your father when he got jealous, I comforted him by saying that he was the only handsome one for me and I even sweeten it by promising him pleasure tonight."

Ann sighed, "I know mom and again I don't need to hear about what you're going to do to dad."

Orika rolled her eyes, "Oh stop acting like you're disgusted in what we do in the bedroom…and sometimes the living room…and one time on the dining table but it broke."

"Is that why we have a new dining room table!?" "You know, I haven't heard your mother talk like this. She's usually more subtle about it. I like this side of her."

Orika pretended to not know what she was talking about, "I don't know what you're talking about. Anyways, haven't you had 'alone time' with Akira?"

Since she heard about alone time from Carmen she knew exactly what she was talking about, "W-Well, um, no, even though we've been together since June…"

"Wow you've been hiding it for this long…I'm impressed. But I can't believe you haven't done it with that young man. If I wasn't married and in love with your father, I would have done things to the young man that would have…"

Ann quickly interrupted her, "Mom! I don't need to hear what you would have done with my boyfriend, it's creepy… and no, I haven't done anything because…I'm waiting till either Christmas or Valentine's Day, just don't tell Akira." "What! This is the first time I heard of this!" "Because you don't know how to keep your mouth shut when it comes to this kind of stuff. Besides, I did keep saying either Christmas or Valentine's Day whenever I looked at the calendar." "I was wondering why you kept saying those two holidays." "And if you ruin this surprise, I will make Zorro sing love songs to you."

Orika smirked, "Well, I think it should be on Christmas because I have the perfect outfit for you. Come with me dear." She started walking to the living room with Ann following her but stopped when she noticed something oddly pleasing, "Um honey? Why does Akira have his shirt and pants off?"

10 minutes earlier

Once the girls left, Akira and Lukas were sitting in the living room in total silence. Akira was trying to figure out how to start the conversation so he just sat there looking down in thought, "Yeah this is really awkward, I don't know what to say." "Just ask him something about Ann or if there is something else he would like to know about you." "Yeah that sounds like a good idea." Akira looked up and over at Ann's father about to ask him a question but noticed that he was looking at him up and down like he was checking him out.

"Akira, have you ever thought about being a model?"

That definitely caught Akira by surprise, "I, uh, no. Why do you say that?"

"Because you have the face and the body that would be perfect for modeling. So I was wondering if you would like to model for my clothing line. I'm sure my princess has told you that me and my wife are fashion designers."

Akira was definitely in shock now, "I honestly would not expect to be offered a modeling job visiting Ann's parents." "You know, a lot of good and interesting things have been happening to you, hopefully not bad happens soon." "Yeah don't start jinxing us now. But, I think I should take the job. It's better than I can get with a criminal record…" He nodded, "Yeah, Ann did talk about you and your wife about being fashion designers and yes, I will accept the offer of being your clothing model."

Lukas was beaming, "Yes! This is wonderfully news! Now, can you take off your shirt and your pants so I can fully see how you look because we are doing our summer wear soon."

Akira looked at him like he had a second head, "Okay? But, can we at least do it not in the living room because you know, the ladies might come in." Arsene started laughing, "Well Akira, it looks like you're able to charm even men." "Go to hell…"

Lukas laughed, "Come on, no need to be shy. It's just going to be a quick look and they're busy making dinner."

"I haven't even shown my half nakedness to Ann…but here I am showing her father before her…" "I wish I had one of those camera thingies right now." "You better not say anything to the others or I will kill you. Remember I can replace you…" Akira slowly and hesitantly started taking off his shirt and then his pants leaving him only his boxers and socks on.

Lukas started looking Akira up and down while circling him. He then started talking to himself, "My word, you have one of the best bodies I've ever seen. I was right, you will be perfect to model for our old and new clothing line."

Akira started to feel really uncomfortable, "I feel so violated…" Arsene started laughing hysterically.

"All done! You can put your clothes back on."

"Thank God." Akira was about to go grab his clothes when he heard Ann's mother's voice.

"Um honey? Why is Akira not wearing his shirt and pants in our living room?"

Akira's eyes went wide and he instantly turned around seeing Orika with a smile and amusement in her eyes as well as Ann. But with Ann, she had wide eyes staring at him with drool slowly coming out of her mouth. She then slowly started looking him up and down and was having a hard time fighting the urge to ravish him, "Oh my god…I want to touch him…right here right now…" "You're finally starting to feel the urges to ravish him!"

Orika leaned towards Ann smirking and spoke quietly enough for only her to hear, "So my daughter. Are you going to be able to last till Christmas after seeing this?"

Ann turned to her mother in confusion obliviously too busy focusing on Akira to understand her, "H-Huh?"

"Oh! I'm sorry you two, I was just asking Akira here if I can view is body because I asked him to model for our clothing line. I just wasn't expecting you two to come in here so soon."

"For me being half naked in front of his daughter, he seems really calm." "Maybe because he accepts you as Ann's boyfriend or he's still excited for you agreeing to be his model." Arsene whispered.

Ann quickly turned to her father even though she was having a hard time trying not to look at Akira, "So Akira's going to be modeling for you and mom!?" "The perfect modeling couple! Oh, I love it already!"

Orika laughed, "While that explains why he's only in his boxers, I thought that you were trying to have your way with him. But I do like the idea of Akira being our model. Maybe next time you should do this in privacy than in the living room though."

"I'm sorry, my love. I was just so excited about having a model for our clothing line and it happens to be our princess' boyfriend."

"Well we have to find a modeling agency for him. I can ask some business friends to find me some male modeling agencies for me."

Akira finally got his clothes on and walked over to Ann smiling, "Well, I guess I'm going to be a model too." "Well that's one thing that I never accomplished."

Ann beamed, "Yeah, maybe we can do some shoots together. That would be fun!" "Well you can always model for me Arsene but it would definitely end up becoming nude modeling."

"Well dear, are you ready to finish up dinner then? I'll show you the outfit later."

Ann nodded and they both went into the kitchen

30 minutes later

The Takamakis and Akira were eating dinner. Akira was really enjoying the meal, "This is great Ms. Takamaki." "Yeah it kind of is good."

Orika smiled, "I'm glad you like it Akira because Ann help out with the dinner."

Akira turned over to Ann and smiled at her, "Really? Well no wonder why it's great."

Ann blushed a deep red, "Thanks…Akiree." "Next you should give him a massage to make him do anything for you."

Lukas smiled at the both of them, "You two really are sweet to each other, I think it's wonderful."

"I'm glad that hear that dad, actually I thought you didn't trust boys? That's why I didn't tell you two about Akira"

Lukas put a hand on his chin, "You're right, I didn't trust boys after what you went through with that man but I didn't say anything about not trusting boyfriends."

Ann glared at him, "Are you serious!?" "I could've had Akira stay over here!" "Well that's disappointing…" "Wait…he didn't trust boys to sleepover but is fine with a boyfriend…Oh my god what kind of girl does he think I am!?" "What kind of girl do you think I am dad!?"

"W-What do you mean princess?"

"What!? Do you think I would just have random guys sleep over!?"

Lukas started sweating scared about his daughter's anger, "N-no o-of course not! I'm just looking out for you! You know, being a father…"

"Actually no, a dad doesn't just assume that his daughter sleeps with random guys!"

"I-I'm sorry my princess…"

Orika chimed in, "Actually I thought you and Shiho were going to be together. You never did have any interest in boys and she was the only person that you would hang out with."

Ann looked at her mom in shock and then put her head in her hands obliviously embarrassed, "I can't believe my dad thinks I sleep around and my mom thought that I was into girls…" "Well there were times I had to seduce woman." "Not helping Carmen!"

Akira laughed, "So Ann, do I have to worry about you wanting to cheat on me with Makoto?" "Well Anat did kind of fondle Carmen's chest a month ago, so I wouldn't doubt it."

"…please stop adding fuel to the fire…" "Oh yeah, it feels like such a long time ago and it felt really good too."

"Ahem!" Lukas cleared his throat rather loudly desperately trying to change the subject, "So Akira, how did you two meet?"

Akira smiled, "Actually on my first day transferring here."

"Wow! That's pretty fast! Maybe meeting each other was predestined."

"Heh, maybe. But, that's when I found out about Kamoshida and what he was trying to do to Ann and Shiho…"

Orika looked at Akira in appreciation, "So you were the one to help our daughter with that man. I thank you for helping her deal with him."

Akira nodded, "Of course, I couldn't do nothing. I'm just glad that I was there to stop him." Akira felt bad for not including Ryuji but he couldn't just tell them about the Metaverse.

Ann wrapped an arm around Akira's arm, "Akira was like a hero to me. If it wasn't for him, I would've given myself to Kamoshida…"

"I'm glad Akira was able to convince you to not do it but I wished you would've told us that disgrace of a man was doing to you dear." Orika gave no one in particular a menacing look, "I would have ripped his balls off and shove them down his throat."

Lukas laughed nervously, "My wife's not kidding…you should have seen her when Ann told us after we got back. Ann and I had to hold her back from not going to the prison."

Akira laughed, "I actually would like to see that." "Ann's mother is kind of cool."

Ann whispered in Akira's ear, "Now you see where I get my anger from when I wanted to kill S. Kamoshida." "Ann's mother is the greatest!"

Akira whispered back, "Yeah, no kidding." "I'm still surprised you were able to stop her."

Ann's Room

After dinner, Ann brought Akira upstairs to show him her room. Ann opened her door and they both walked in. Akira looked around and saw that it was a medium sized room a little bit bigger than his room but smaller than the Leblanc attic. On the floor was a red furry carpet and the walls were all white. He saw a red large size dresser across her door with a big mirror on it with makeup on each side of the mirror. On the other wall of the room was a medium size TV stand in front of her bed with a 20inch TV on it, there was also a body mirror next to the TV stand. Across the TV stand was a small bed against the wall with a white bed frame and a red sheet on it as well as the Jack Frost doll Akira won for her and on the wall next to the end of the bed was a window. Next to the bed was a nightstand with the picture they took at the airport and a picture of Ann and Shiho when they were younger.

Akira had amusement in his eyes, "Well it seems your favorite color is red and white." "I could just tell from her outfits."

Ann sighed, "Yeah…I kind of went overboard." She turned to him seeing him smirk, "Hey! At least it's red instead of light blue!" "I still think it looks elegant."

Akira laughed, "Relax Anki, I think it looks great." "Yeah, it's a unique look to a room." Upon closer look in between the makeup was an uneaten banana, "Um Ann, why is there an uneaten banana on your dresser?"

Ann looked at him confused, "An uneaten banana?" She looked over her dresser seeing the banana when her eyes went wide remembering why the banana was there. She then quickly grabbed the banana, opened her window and threw it out the window. They both heard a girly scream and they both looked out the window seeing Lukas holding his head. Ann stuck out her head yelling out, "I'm sorry dad! Um, can you throw that away!?"

Akira laughed again, "Maybe you shouldn't forget to eat food." "Are you serious Akira? You really are an innocent young man." "How does telling Ann to eat food making me an innocent young man?"

"Because darling, Ann here was using the banana to practice…" "Singing! Yes! I was practicing singing!"

"Um okay, I don't know why you need to practice singing, you already have a beautiful voice." "Yeah, you really are an innocent young man…"

Ann quickly sat down and patted her bed indicating that she wanted him to sit next to her. Akira looked at her confused then shrugged his shoulders sitting down next to her. Once he sat down, she sighed, "I can't believe how embarrassing my parents are…" "I'm sure they don't mean to do it dear."

"I like your parents. Your dad is a bit eccentric and is really flamboyant like you said and your mother is basically Carmen which means she's great." Arsene laughed, "I can definitely see both of them in Ann."

"I guess I am like my parents." "Aw, you think I'm great Akira. Well I think your wonderful darling."

Akira laughed, "Thanks Carmen." Arsene laughed, "Hey now, don't start trying to take Carmen away from me."

Ann smiled, "Do you ever know how to turn your charming self off? My mom was wanting to do things to you if she wasn't with my dad." "Well he does ooze charm." "Speaking of charm, you know how hard it was to not pounce on you when I saw you just in your boxers."

"Well you did have drool coming out your mouth. So I would assume a very hard time." "She had the same look that I would have looking at a diamond."

Ann stopped him seeing a shadow in front of her door, "I would pounce on you right now but I know my mom's probably outside my door listening in!" "She is?"

"No, I'm not! I-I was just walking by!"

Ann sighed in frustration, "Just come in!"

Orika slowly opened the door and walked in like she wasn't caught eavesdropping, "What do you need dear?" Ann didn't say anything just glaring at her mom, "Oh fine then, yes I was standing outside your door."

"And why were you standing outside my door?"

"Well I was going to show you that outfit that would be perfect for you but I then heard you two talking about us so I wanted to hear what Akira thought of us."

"Why didn't you just ask him!?"

"Because he wouldn't lie to you and it's nice to hear from Akira that I'm great like this Carmen person unlike my daughter who thinks I'm an embarrassment."

Ann looked down in shame, "I'm sorry mom…"

Orika sighed, "Can I see you for a bit dear?"

Ann nodded, "Y-Yeah." She got up and walked to her mom.

"Don't worry Akira; I'll bring her back in a moment." and they both left.

While he was waiting, Akira's phone went off, "Huh? I wasn't expecting a text message." "I wonder who it is." Akira brought out his phone and saw that it was Shiho who texted him, "Why is Shiho texting me? Oh crap! I forgot about Ann's surprise birthday party!"

[Hey there Akira, I'm going to be arriving around 12pm tomorrow. Have you already talked to Nijima-san about distracting Ann?]

"Crap…I also forgot to call Makoto…" "Now I don't condone lying to females…okay nevermind, I usually did."

[Yeah, I just got done talking to her.]

[Great! I've got some ideas we can talk about already we just have to find a place to have it.]

Akira smiled already knowing the perfect place

[I already have the perfect place.]

[Wow look at you Akira, you actually was prepared. Now only if you could've used that preparation in finding out when Ann's birthday was.]

"Well someone's snarky." "She's like a completely different person."

[Haha, well thank you and next time I will remember to do that, Miss Suzui.]

[Well you're welcome, Mister Kurusu. I've got to get going so I'll see you tomorrow then. Have a good night.]

[You have a good night as well.]

"Well you two are fast becoming well acquainted." "Well I am dating her best friend so I'm sure she wants to quickly become friends with me." "Hopefully, she hasn't given in to your charms." "Do you want Ann to kill me? Also, it's not like I do it on purpose. Anyways, I got to call Makoto." Akira pressed a few buttons on the phone and put it to his ear. After a few rings, Makoto answered.

"Good evening Akira, I wasn't expecting a phone call from you." "Good evening, Arsene-san."

"I'm sorry, am I disturbing you?" "Good evening to you too, Anat."

"No, of course not, it's just…nevermind. How may I help you?" "So Arsene, can I speak to Satanael?"

"Well it's Ann's birthday next Sunday and Shiho wants to throw her a surprise party. So tomorrow Shiho is coming back so her and I can plan it out. Now I wanted to ask if you can hang out with her tomorrow to distract her." Arsene sighed, "Yeah…give me a moment. He said that he misses you dearly and hopes you're doing well."

"Oh! Shiho's coming back!? Ann would definitely like that. So yes, I will help you distract Ann." "Awwww, tell I miss him as well and I'm doing okay. I just want to see him again."

"Thank you Makoto, I owe you." He said that when he sees you again, he wants to kiss you all over your body."

"You don't owe me anything. I just want to help you with whatever you need." "That's all? I want him to do more than that and it involves pounding into m…" "Alright, we're done here. Good night, Akira." and Makoto quickly hung up.

"I think that Carmen has been teaching Anat some of her skills." "Maybe it's because she's the goddess of love and fertility. But, I think Satanael got the hint of what she really wants because he's speechless right now."

Meanwhile

After they both left the room, Ann and her mother started walking towards the latter's room. Ann was still feeling bad about calling her mom and dad an embarrassment, "Mom…I'm sorry for calling you an embarrassment. I was just upset that you told Akira what I did with your mannequin and that you thought I was going to be with Shiho."

Orika sighed, "I know dear, I went overboard with my teasing. I was just so happy that you found a man you can love. After what happened with that disgrace of a man, I was afraid that you wouldn't want to be with a man. Not that I mind you being with a girl."

Ann looked down, "I understand mom. To be honest, if it wasn't for Akira, I would be afraid to trust men. He's always there for me even when he barely knew me. He means everything to me."

"I'm glad to hear that my daughter. So when do I get to prepare your wedding?"

"That's all up to Akira. I'm sure he wants to wait till after we're done with school."

Orika laughed, "Good because I want grandkids as soon as possible."

"I don't know about 'kids' but maybe just one."

Orika rolled her eyes, "I highly doubt that." Once they made it to her room, she went straight to her closet and took out a what look like a Christmas outfit…a Christmas outfit that looked more like a something you would wear for your significant other when you're ready for some 'fun time'.

"Mom! W-What kind of outfit is that!?"

Orika beamed, "An outfit that would make Akira instantly ready for you when you two finally get intimate."

"Oh okay…I thought they were outer wear…"

"Haha, go ahead and wear it outside, if you want men to be all over you. Now then try it on." Orika handed Ann the outfit.

Ann grabbed it and took off her clothes. She put on the outfit and walked over to her parents' body mirror. The first thing she noticed was that the red shorts weren't really shorts but more like jean underwear with a black belt. The top was a halter-top that was red with white on top of it and black buttons holding it together covering just her chest but still showing her cleavage.

Ann surprising started slowly liking the outfit, "You know, for only being for private time, it does look great on me." "This outfit is absolutely beautiful darling!"

"I'm happy to hear that you're starting to like it dear. But I forgot to give you the shoes and the accessories." Orika went back to her closet and grabbed some things as well as red boots with heels. She walked back to Ann and handed her the stuff.

Ann grabbed the things and looked at them. She saw two red evening gloves, a red hair band with red panther ears and a red panther tail, "Um…this can't be a coincidence. These ears and tail looks like the things I wear in the Metaverse! Except it's a hair band instead of a mask!" "It looks like your mother likes to dress up like a panther." Ann put on the things and looked into the mirror, "Yeah it definitely looks like I'm wearing my rebel outfit but I'm not wearing my latex suit and the boots still go up to the knees but look like regular heeled bootsinstead." "It looks great mom!"

"That's great dear, now you'll be ready for your first time with Akira."

Ann smiled, "Yeah. Actually, around Christmas would be the best time because it's Akira's birthday in December."

Orika smiled at her daughter, "Well then you're going to give him a birthday that he'll never forget."

Ann took off the outfit and put her old clothes back on then grabbed the Christmas outfit, "Thanks mom, this outfit will work perfectly." "With this outfit, Akira would be on you in seconds."

Orika laughed, "I'm glad I can help you dear. Now if you need help with anything involving sexual things, just ask."

"Okay I will. Oh yeah, I'm going to be staying over at Akira's house tonight." "Yes! Finally!"

"That's fine dear; hopefully you'll be able to stay off him till Christmas." Orika smirked about to tease her daughter one more time, "Do you want to borrow our mannequin so you can pretend to be with two Akiras tonight?"

Ann sighed with annoyance, "Just when you finally did something helpful and non-embarrassing today, you just had to say one more embarrassing thing. Sometimes I hate you…" "Now you shouldn't say that you hate your mother dear."

Orika smiled, "And I will always love you, dear."

Ann rolled her eyes, "I'm going to get Akira so we can start heading out."

"Okay, I'll grab your father and meet you downstairs at the entrance."

Ann nodded and they both walked out the room.

Ann walked into her room seeing Akira thinking about something

"So what are you thinking about?"

Akira smiled, "Oh nothing, just thinking about today."

"Yeah, I'm glad that my parents love you and you even got a modeling job from them." "Yeah, that modeling thing was really surprising."

Akira got up, "Yeah, things have been looking up for us ever since a few days ago." "Sometimes we have to go through bad things before we see greatness."

"Yeah." Ann looked down because even though she told her mom she was staying over Akira's house, she realized that she didn't even ask him, "U-Um, can I stay over…tonight?"

Akira smiled seeing her nervousness and walked over to her embracing her, "Well it is Saturday right? I did promise that every Saturday you get to stay over."

Ann instantly melted into his embrace and held him, "I know but I wanted to make sure." She reluctantly let go of him, "We should go downstairs my parents are waiting for us."

"Okay, let's go then."

"Let me get my pajamas real fast then we can start heading downstairs."

Akira nodded while Ann grabbed a backpack and put her pajamas in them. Afterwards, they walked out of the room and downstairs seeing Orika and Lukas by the door.

Orika smiled at the both of them, "Ah there are the two lovebirds."

Lukas smiled at them as well, "It was great to meet you Akira. I'm glad my princess as found a man such as yourself."

Akira felt great hearing Ann's dad praise him, "I'm glad that I meet your expectations Mr. Takamaki."

Orika laughed, "You more than meet our expectations dear. You will now be considered part of our family." She walked up to Akira and hugged him.

Akira surprised at first hearing that he was considered family and the hug soon hugged back, "I'm glad to be consider part of the family."

Ann and her father started tearing up seeing them hug.

After they were done hugging, Lukas went up and hugged Akira also welcoming him to the family.

After they got done, Ann and Akira said their goodbyes and started heading back to Sojiro's house.

Akira's Room

Akira walked into the room tired from today. He got into his home clothes while Ann was in the bathroom changing. Once he got done, he went onto his bed waiting for Ann, "So are you excited about having Ann spend the night with you?" "Of course I am even though we did in Hawaii; I got the best sleep I ever had that night."

After a bit, Ann walked through the door wearing red silk pajamas but she still had her hair in pigtails. Ann didn't even hesitate getting into bed with Akira and instantly held him with her head under his chin.

Akira laughed, "I'm surprised that you weren't nervous about this." "Like you said you both have done this before.

Ann laughed as well, "That's because you don't know how long I've been wanting to do this again." "She kept saying that she felt empty sleeping without you ever since the Hawaii trip."

"You should have told me then."

"Well I was too preoccupied with other things…"

"Oh yeah…" Akira started playing with her pigtails to change the subject, "So do you always go to sleep with your hair still in pigtails?"

Ann giggled, "Of course not. You're just going to wait till we have our first time together." "That's a weird way of showing him how you really look." "Excuse me; I don't see you undoing your pigtails in the Metaverse."

Akira smiled, "Wow, you're even using your hair as a special moment." "Well no one has seen her hair without pigtails besides her parents and maybe Shiho I'm assuming.

Ann smirked, "Well just think of it this way. When you see me with my hair down that's the sigh that I'm ready for you. How about that?"

Akira laughed, "That sounds weird but good as well."

"Good." "He doesn't even know what's going to be in store for him on his birthday! I can't wait to see the look on his face when he sees the outfit!" "Oh yeah, Makoto texted me while I was in the bathroom. She wants to hang out. Would that be okay if I hang out with her?"

"Thank you Makoto." "You don't need to ask me for permission to hangout with a friend Ann. Besides, Ryuji's been bothering me to hangout."

"Well I just wanted to make sure and yeah, I can kind of see Ryuji bothering you to hangout since we barely have time now."

"Yeah, it's been kind of hectic. But, that will all end hopefully soon." "Yeah, hopefully the Metaverse doesn't disappear though because we might too." "Really Arsene? Don't joke about that stuff."

"Yeah I can't imagine losing Carmen she's like a sister to me." "Really!?" "Of course Carmen, we argue like sisters all the time, I can't imagine losing you." Carmen started crying from happiness, "I feel the same dear!"

Akira smiled but then yawned, "We should get some sleep since we're going to be busy tomorrow." "Yeah, let's go to sleep."

"Yeah I agree, goodnight my Akiree. I love you." "Good night, my darling Arsey."

"Goodnight, my dear Anki. I love you as well." "Good night, my sweet Carme."

First, I want to give a quick shoutout to PRemington900 for giving me the names for Ann's parents (because I suck with naming characters), I highly suggest reading their Persona 5 fic: Trickster vs. Champion which is a Akira/Ren x Ann story and a Shiho x OC story. Even if you don't like a story with an OC sharing the spotlight with Akira/Ren and having a bunch of OCs, it's still a great read especially if you are a Shiho fan, he really knows how to write her since we only get to see her broken self in the game and she's plays a big part of this story.

{End Notes: I am so sorry for taking forever. I've been real busy so I hope this chapter full of humor makes up for it. Well now Akira is going to be a model, I thought it would be interesting to have him be a model since Ann is. So I made Ann's dad half American and half European and her mom fully Japanese because it would make her one-fourth American, one-fourth European, and half Japanese. It may not seem what Atlus wanted her nationality to be but it makes the most sense to me at least. I also made Ann's dad flamboyant and bubbly because I didn't want to do the typically: beautiful daughter, big and strong dad stereotype plus it would be more hilarious to me. So the next chapter as you can tell is going to be Ann's birthday surprise as well as the whole Akechi thing. With the whole birthday thing, I did something that wasn't planned before and it's going to throw Ann for a loop. Now I know you're wondering why I'm having Akira meet Ann's parents instead of waiting till after the arrest and her birthday…well let's just say you're going to hate Akechi even more.]

Reviews:

PRemington900: Oh yeah, things are definitely getting steamy between Ann and Akira. But, that wasn't even close to what I have planned for them.

Oh, I definitely know that haha.

Deathking00: I'm glad that you really love this fic and we are still in the beginning stages of good things happening in the story.
