I'd like for you to meet my family too, but... we'll have to take it slow. I'm sure the boys will love you, they're rather young, but my aunt and uncle...
My uncle, Terrin, isn't the biggest fan of mages so we're kind of stuck on that note. Relationships haven't been a point of conversation.
My aunt, Bonnie, knows about you. About us. Well... just the two of us. Apparently she was under the assumption that Christine was my lover? I corrected her about that a couple weeks ago and I think she's still processing. So I haven't elaborated... I think that might be too much for her to handle at the moment.
[There's a sigh on his end, disliking hearing the disappointment in Cyril's voice.]
No, I don't want you to visit as 'just a friend', Cyril. You're my boyfriend, and I want you to meet my family as such. I was just... I just wanted you to be prepared for when you meet them... and I ended up rambling and didn't quite say what I meant.
What I was trying to say was... Everyone knows you're my boyfriend, Cyril, but I didn't elaborate about our relationship including other people. So they know about Iskandar and Jim, but only that we lived together and that they were Rifters. That's just a bit too much for them to know at this point of time; my cousins are only 2 and 4, my uncle already has issues with me being a mage, and my aunt is coming to terms with me not giving her grand-kids... grand-neices and/or nephews?
Also, I would be very, very sad that after this long you would keep your hands to yourself. Also surprised, shocked and perhaps worried if you managed to do so. Though keeping the lewd comments to a minimum would be good...

Say, next month I'll have some downtime? Perhaps I can join you? I'd love to meet your family and that gives you time to prepare.
