“Come on, not even a hint?” Jada pressed with a smile. 


“Nope,” Brielle laughed shaking her head. 

They were sitting in the stands watching the team warm up for their game against the Suns. Jada had been desperately trying to get whether the baby was a boy or a girl out of Brielle the entire time she had been there. 

“Please,” Jada begged. 

“No,” Brielle laughed. “You’ll find out when everyone else does,”


“Fiiiiine,” Jada conceded rolling her eyes. 

Chelsea Redick walked up smiling at both of them and was getting ready to say hi when Jada cut her off. 


“Don’t even bother being nice to her she’s not gonna tell you either,” Jada said looking over at Chelsea. 


“You found out what you’re having?” Chelsea gushed. 


“Yup and no. You’ll find out when everyone else does,” Brielle smiled at her.

“Hateful,” Chelsea sighed taking her seat. 

Blake laughed as he saw the girls out of the corner of his eye while he was waiting his turn to shoot. 

“Think she told them?” Chris asked coming up next to him. 

“I know she didn’t. Look at the look on your wife’s face,” Blake laughed. 

Chris looked up and could see the annoyed look on Jada’s face and had to laugh. 

“Yeah I know that look,” Chris nodded. “She doesn’t like surprises,”

“Could be worse. We could just not tell anyone until it gets here,” Blake shrugged. 


“Yeah,” Chris shrugged. “Might make for a shitty baby shower though,”


“Do I have to go to that?” Blake asked with a paranoid look on his face. 

Chris laughed shaking his head. 


“That’s up to her man,” Chris said answering him. 

“Great,” Blake sighed catching the ball that was thrown at him. 

Brielle couldn’t remember ever being this nervous watching Blake play. It was a good back and forth game, but with as tight as the west was shaping up to be neither team could really afford the loss. Her nerves kicked into overdrive when the game went into overtime. 

“I can’t handle this,” Brielle sighed closing her eyes. 


“I know,” Jada agreed. 

“How we doing ladies?” Steve Ballmer, the Clippers owner, asked coming to sit by them.


“Nervous,” Brielle smiled at him. 

“Why? They got this,” Steve said confidently looking back out at the court.
