MLB Imagines

Christian Yelich (Miami Marlins)

Christian & Geena

Having a boyfriend who played for an MLB team was exciting. Always getting to go to games, fancy events, and getting recognized on the street never got old. What did get old though, was him getting hurt.

This game, I decided to get homerun seats so I could see him better. He was in outfield, as usual, when a ball came flying towards him. I stood up and started cheering, knowing he would catch it.

Suddenly, he reached for it but completely missed it, falling to the ground and curling up in a ball.

"Christian! Get up Chris!" I yelled, hoping he would hear me somehow.

Then, the entire Marlins bench cleared and all ran to his aid, or so I thought. The entire team was hovered around him, shielding him from my view. I got up and tried too one of the isles so I could go to the locker room, but the crowd was too busy looking at Christian to notice his frantic girlfriend.

All of a sudden, Marry You by Bruno Mars started flooding out of the speakers. 

Why are they playing that when he's on the ground in obvious pain? Wait, the team is moving.

They formed a circle and Christian was on their shoulders, singing along with a little box in his hand. Was this actually happening?

Without warning, a guard grabbed my arm and pulled me out of the crowd, running me down to the field and leading me to the team.

The song was still playing as Christian was put gently on the ground by his teammates. He walked over and kneeled in front of me, holding out the little box with the glistening diamond.

"Geena, I love you so much. I don't know what I'd do without you, and I need you in my life for the rest of my life. And, I think I hurt myself trying to do this, so you better say yes. Will you marry me?"

And that's the story of how my fiancé got on DL by proposing.
