6: Mommy's First Game

Isabella's Pov
   Today was my first game of the season and when I tell you I was scared. Coach was putting me as pitcher. Our goal for the first game was to at least get 15 points and don't let the other team score so that the game can be over quick. Everybody I was close with was in the stands. When we flipped a coin it said that Lake Norman had to bat first.

  It was now my turn to step into the batter box. I could her Ivy scream "That's my mommy! Daddy look its mommy!". That just made me wanna give it my all just for her.  The opposite teams pitcher liked to pitch fast and throw curveballs so I had to watch the ball all the way to make sure I made contact with it. I had to jump out the box because the girl threw a ball. I'm not complaining though. The next pitch looked like a dinger but I swung to early, that's one strike. Third times a charm and I was right.

I hit the ball all the way to the fence. I ran as far as I could before they got the ball into the in-field. Third baseman and the catcher were throwing the ball back and forth trying to get me out. But the catcher over threw the ball so I took the opportunity and ran home. I was safe of course.

I walked up to the fence that was next to the dugout and saw that Mikey was holding Ivy, who was trying to talk to me. "Mommy that was cool!", she said as she clapped her hands and jumped around in Mikey's arms. "Yeah Bells that was cool.", Mikey said agreeing with Ivy.

  "Well mommy tries her best. You saw how mommy out ran their catcher?", I asked Ivy. " Oh shut up with all dat the girl is two she gon learn later. You need to get ready to go switch with the runner on second base.", Jhayde called out to me from the other side of the dugout.

"Well baby you heard tee Jhayde. Mommy will see you after the game bye love you!", I called to her before I ran to switch with the girl on second base.

   We won the game 25-5. I scored 5 out of the 25 which was really good for me. I struck 8 people out to say it was my first time pitching. My arm kinda hurts now. Me and Ivy were currently screaming the words to Hamilton while Mikey was driving .  "It must be nice it must be nice to have Washington on your side!", we shouted before Mikey changed the station.

" Why would you do that?", I said popping his hand that was on my thigh. He squeezed my thigh and whispered into my ear , "Watch who you talking to Milan. I'm not afraid to fuck ya shit up and give you another baby."
I decided to not pay him no mind and continue what I was going to say.
  "Where our we going anyway?"
" To chick-fil-a of course and I know your tired so go to sleep. I will order for us ok?"
"Ok.", I said before I went to sleep.

I was asleep for about 30 minutes before Mikey woke me up saying we were at our next stop. We were going to have a picnic at the local park in our area close to where my parents live. I wonder why because this is the place me and Mikey had our first date. "Mommy when did you start playing softball?", Ivy asked me while eatting a fry. I didn't notice I was crying until I felt Mikey rub my back.

" Mommy you don't have to tell me."
" No it ok Bug mommy was going to tell you eventually. But Omi and PawPaw weren't always my parents. I had biological parents that made me and rasied me until I was 10. They died in a car accident and I had to go live with my grandmother until she pasted away to when I was 13.  A few months after she died I met Omi and PawPaw and they adopted me. I play softball because it was the first sport I ever played when I was your age and it has brought me some of the best memories I have of my biological parents.", I said wiping my tears but as I did that I heard something and saw my entire friend group standing behind me with ballons with tears in their eyes.

"You were supposed to see us!", Jhayde scremed as she threw her hands in the air. All three of the had things they gave to me roses, chocolate, and ballons. I saw a card on the flowers and picked it up so I could read it.

    Dear Isabella Milan Carter,
I know its probably a bit to soon for us to be moving this fast, but I never stopped loving you and will always love you because you brought my first child into the world and that is more than I could ever ask of you. However the next question I will ask is very simple, will you and Ivy go out on a date with me?

Love,
Michael Anthony Williams

I didn't even know what to say I just stared at him. I looked at all my friends and asked them how long did they know about this. Bronny was the first to answer, he said "Well for about a week but you know what never mind enjoy yall day." He has been in a salty mood ever since Mikey has been back in Ivy's life, I don't know what his problem is but he needs to get it together.
" But to answer your question yes Michael we would love to.", I said answering his question. He picked me up and spun me around.
" Ok so Imma bring you home right now dress nice. I reservations are in 3 hours it is now 4. Be ready by 6:30.", He said as he put me down. This must be one hell of a date if I gotta dress nice.
