(AN: The reference to Felix wearing the shirt with tiny pink cats on it is from Pantypantypantypantypantyhoes story on A03 Meet The Parents. Also a slight language warning. Enjoy!)
Felix was nervous.
But he was almost never nervous.
But he was now.
Because this was the first time that he was meeting Mark's mom and brother.
Oh boy.
And Mark just happened to have dared him today to wear the shirt with tiny, neon pink cats all over it.
Love you too Mark!
"We're here!" Mark said in a sing-song voice.
"Oh boy."
Felix hopped out of the car and quickly ran around to meet Mark on the other side. Making their way up the driveway, Felix spoke.
"Thanks for making me wear this shirt today. Love you so much."
"Aw Felix, you're too kind! Love you even more." Mark smiled slyly. Mark pushed the doorbell and smirked at Felix.
"You ready?"
Before Felix got the chance to speak, the door swung open and they were greeted with a woman that was obviously Mark's mother.
"Oh here his is! My little baby!" She cooed as she hugged Mark, then pulled away to take Felix's hand.
"Hi! You must be Felix! I'm Maria!"
"Yes! That's me!"
"Mark's told me so much about you! All good things of course! Please both of you come in!"
Felix and Mark stepped inside and took off of their boots.
"Well look who it is." A voice called from the stairs.
"Hey little brother!" Tom said rubbing Mark's hair, "is this another one of your conquests?"
"Tom!" Mark yelled back with an annoyed looking face, "Felix, stay right here."
And Mark dashed away.
"So you're Felix huh?"
"Yeah"
Felix didn't necessarily feel uncomfortable, just really nervous of how they would think of him.
"Nice shirt you got there."
"Thanks. Mark dared me to wear it today. I've never wanted to kill him more."
"Tell me about it. So, you're a Youtuber, right?"
"Uh yeah."
"That's how Mark met you then."
"Yeah pretty much. We did collaborations together."
"Sweet! How many subscribers you got?"
Felix hated this part, telling them that he was "PewDiePie". He really just wanted to be seen as Felix, especially around his future-family.
"Um..." Felix pulled out his phone to check his channel sub number,
This was the hard part.
"37,605,145"
"What! That's insane! Unless..."
Well shit.
"You're PewDiePie!"
"Yeah, That's me. But is it okay if you just treat me as if I wasn't. I really just want to try to be normal."
"Sure."
Mark then rushed back from out the hallway next to the stairs.
"You okay Felix?"
"Yeah, I'm all good."
"I hope you didn't give him any shit, Tom"
"I didn't." Tom chuckles, and heads back upstairs.
Mark grabbed me by the hand, and lead me through the lounge room, and into the kitchen where Maria was.
"Oh, hello Felix! Are you both staying for dinner?"
"Yes please!" Felix didn't mean to say that, it was just that whatever was cooking on the stove, is smelled great.
"Sorry." Felix says apologetically, but Maria just chuckles,
"No, it's perfectly fine, dear. I love your shirt!"
"Thank you, someone dared me to wear it today." Felix replied, nudging Mark in the side. She just laughs again.
"So Felix, what do you do?"
Again?
"Oh, I'm a Youtuber, like Mark."
"Really? That must be cool with you two being together."
"Yeah," Felix looks at Mark, "I guess so."
"So how is married life, Markimoo?"
"Mom, we're not married, we're engaged."
"Oh same thing!"
The jokes and talk continues until dinner is ready. And when they al, sit down to eat, it was honestly not that awkward. They talked like a normal family, made jokes like a normal family, and Felix smiled, because he wanted that.

After dinner, Felix was then hit with the idea of his parents meeting Mark. Excusing himself outside to call his mother, Felix thinks about how he hasn't spoken to them in months, who knows what they think about him being gay?
"Hello?" A quiet voice picks up,
But it isn't quiet for long after that.
Yelling though the phone is punched into Felix's ears and silence is gone.
It's only silence again when the calls ends, and Felix wants to cry.
So he decides to pull the fever trick, and say that he suddenly feels queasy and ready for bed, he is tired anyway.
"Mark, I'm not feeling too well, and I'm pretty tired, so I'm gonna hit the hay."
"Alrighty then. Rest up Pewdiebug!" Mark gives him a kiss on the cheek, and Felix heads upstairs.

After sleeping for a few hours, Felix wakes up, and realising it's 1am, heads downstairs. The fireplace is still on, and provides heat for him. Felix stares into it, imagining that the burning wood is his relationship with his mother,
Going up in flames.
Felix starts to cry.
He isn't being loved for who he really was. His family didn't accept who he wanted to love.
His crying doesn't go unnoticed for long.
"Felix, dear, are you alright?"
"Oh, yeah I'm fine. Just can't sleep, that's all."
"You don't look fine. Or sound fine for that matter."
"No, I'm just being a big bubble blowing baby."
"What's going on, Felix?"
It takes him a while to say it.
"My parents don't accept that I'm gay. They don't want me to love who I want to love."
"Oh, you poor baby." Maria comes over to the couch and hugs Felix. It really does make him feel so much better.
"I mean, what are we going to do at the wedding? Who's going to walk me down the aisle?"
"I promise you Felix, I promise you, that I will love you, take care of you and care for you as if you were my own son."
It brings tears to Felix's eyes.
"Thank you Maria."
"Now, you should head up to bed, I suppose you'll be seeing Bob and Wade tomorrow. And with me being your mother, I demand you that you go to bed!" She snaps playfully.
"Goodnight Maria"
"Goodnight Felix"

When Felix wakes up, he's in Mark's embrace, because
He knows.
