Callie's POV

We just arrived at the little soccer field. Sammy told us that he wanted to start playing soccer with a team a few weeks ago so we signed him up straight away to play and today is the first game. Ive never seen him so excited and he looks so adorable in his little soccer outfit.

"Mummy! Mummy!?"

"Yeah buddy, whats up?" I ask lifting Lyric from her car seat to my arms.

"Can I go join my friends now please?!" He begs pointing to all the little kids over by the coach on the field.

I giggle at his excitement "Yeah buddy off you go" He doesn't even think about it one more second before sprinting off over to the field.

"Well at least we know he's pumped to win" Brandon states as we begin walking over.

"Babe. There 6 year olds. I doubt they care about winning. Its just about playing and having fun"

"Oh nah. Cal this is my son we're talking about. He definitely cares if they win"

"Sammy isn't as competitive as you are" We get into our seats for the games and I try to have Lyric to Brandon but he declines shaking his head while watching Sammy warm up. "Did you just reject you daughter?"

"Hey! I need my hands free to cheer for when Sammy kicks a goal" I chuckle shaking my head placing Lyric down on my lap.

"Don't worry. My husbands the same" I hear beside me making me turn my head to see a brunette lady looking about my age smiling in my direction.

"Oh tell me about it. Winning is the only thing on his mind" I joke as we both laughing.

"Im Macy" She introduces shaking my hand before turning to the male beside her "And this is my husband Drew but you'll get more out of him after the game" she jokes "Then we have our little Harriet down there no. 11" She explains pointing to the little girl on the field who is extremely cute.

"Aw she's adorable. Im Callie, this is my husband Brandon, Sammy is no.6 down there next to the coach and this is Lyric" I finish holding Lyric higher off my lap before placing her back down.

"Holy lord she is absolutely adorable" she gushes.

"Oh thank you" I respond smiling down at Lyric.

"How old is the little darling?"

"Just shy of one month"

"May I?" She asks holding out her arms for Lyric.

"Of course" I smile handing Lyric over to her.

"Oh lord. I can't even handle how gorgeous she is and all dressed in blue to support her big brother"

"Well she can't quite cheer yet so we had to find another way for her to show team support. Sammy's request" I explain.

"Well she can definitely pull off blue. I can only imagine the cuteness overload when she's all pretty in pink"

"Oh yeah. Dressing her up is my favourite activity" I say surely.

"I thought I was your favourite activity" Brandon whispers seductively in my ear so only I can hear. I nudge his arm signalling for him to behave and he chuckles before turning back to watching the teams warm up.

"Well I'll give yo back to your mummy to enjoy" Macy says handing Lyric back over to me. I give her a kiss on her cheek before placing her back down on my lap.

Not long after that the whistle goes meaning the game is ready to start. As soon as the 'go' whistle blew Brandon was on his feet cheering for Sammy and the team. Drew was doing the exact same thing for Harriet which made me feel a little less stared at by the other parents in the stand. While Harriet is running with the ball a kid from the other team gets it from her making her fall over making Macy and I gasp in shock. I watch as the game continues and all kids run to the other end of the field but then see my precious little man run over to Harriet. He helps her up and brushes off her knees for her like I do when he falls. After making sure she is ok they both go running to the others to continue with the game. Nobody could wipe the big proud smile off my face right now.

"Well whether he got it from you or your husband. That is one sweet little boy you have there" Macy states.

I turn to look at Brandon who is hypnotised in the game and I smile "Definitely his daddy" I say more then proudly.

After the game is over we meet Sammy over by the bottom of the stands where he is all smiles about their win.

"Mummy! Daddy! Did you see us! We won!" He shouts with excitement while jumping up and down making me giggle.

"we did see you buddy. You did amazing. I'm also so very proud of you for helping Harriet when she fell over and making sure she was ok" I explain to him.

"Well Harry is my friend. Also daddy said to always make sure girls don't get hurt. I wouldn't want Lyric to fall over and nobody help her right?" He asks making sure he had the right idea.

"thats right buddy always treat girls kindly and with respect" Brandon praises causing a smile to for upon Sammy's face. He always loved it when he knew Brandon was proud of him, it made him feel so happy.

"Can we get ice-cream?" He asks swiftly changing the subject to something obviously more appealing to him at this time.

"Of course we can little dude. How else do you celebrate a win!"

Sammy giggles at brandons response before they both run off racing each other to the car. I smile following along slowly behind with a peacefully sleeping Lyric in my arms.

"So can we to grandmas after this and tell her about our win?" Sammy asks taking another bite of his chocolate ice-cream with sprinkles.

"I think they're a little busy today buddy but how about we go home and get you washed and changed. Then when you're all fresh you can call them and tell them the good news yeah?"

"YEAH!" he cheers in agreement.

I smile moving my hand over to Brandons linking our fingers.

What a great day....
