Attending baseball games has become my new regular as both Christian and Kalen's seasons took a start. Today was Kalen's first game at his school and he was mega excited about it. It was his first year as captain and as he says, he had more fans than just me since Brianna and her mom would also be attending today's game. 

Today was Wednesday, so Kalen still had to go to school before his game today. I prepared his lunch and sent him on his way once he finished his breakfast. I also had to head to work today because Morgan wanted to go over some more dance routines and I had an adult dance class to teach today. I also planned to announce my pregnancy to him today which I was very excited about. 

After getting dressed in a pair of leggings and one of Kalen's old sweaters, I made my way to the car so that I could head to work. The traffic was thankfully light today so I was able to make it to work rather quickly. Once I arrived, I parked and made my way inside while greeting some other dance teachers. 

I headed towards the Hip-Hop room where I could already hear the music playing from inside. I figured that Morgan was teaching his morning Hip-Hop class so I quietly made my way inside without interrupting. 

After 20 minutes of sitting on the floor going through my playlist for today's class, Morgan eventually ended his class. 

"Alright guys, you all did great today! Thanks for coming to class." He said with a smile on his face as he grabbed his water bottle. "You're all free to go. Have a good day!" Everyone started to file out after grabbing their things as Morgan made his way over to me, sitting next to me and leaning his head on my shoulder. "I am so tired, Ray." He groaned

I chuckled and patted his head, closing the computer on my lap. "I figure. How's class been?" I asked him. 

We went on to talk about the classes we have been teaching along with making some jokes on the side. Work is much more fun when you have a coworker like Morgan. He just makes work more enjoyable. 

"So, I have something I want to tell you." I said to him as I grabbed my backpack. I pulled out a small box which Morgan looked at confused. "Open it." I told him. 

Morgan took the small box, took apart the ribbon, and pulled out a onesie. "Future Royals dancer?" Morgan read aloud, turning to look at me confused, and then a look of surprise took over. "No way.... are you pregnant?" He asked me.

"Yes." I nodded with a huge smile on my face. 

"OH MY GOSH!!!" Morgan cheered and wrapped his arms around my shoulders, bringing me into his embrace. "Congratulations!! I am so happy for you!"

"Thank you." I smiled at him as we separated from the hug. "I am 3 months along so far and I have been wanting to tell you for so long." 

Morgan smiled at me and said, "You're going to be a great mother, I hope you know that."

I smiled back at him as a few tears formed in my eyes. Everyone has been telling me that lately and I hope they are correct.

I was finally back home and preparing everything for Kalen's game while on the phone with Christian before he went to play his own game. 

"Babe, you're taking all those juices as if you're going to feed the whole team." Christian said as I was packing a mini freezer with some Gatorades and Capri suns. 

"Well, I have to be prepared if anyone needs an emergency drink." I told him and then held out my big water bottle. "I also have my own water bottle to stay hydrated."

Christian laughed and shook his head. "You are honestly the cutest person ever. I miss you so much."

"I miss you too, baby." I smiled back at him. "Do you like my outfit?" I asked him as I backed up and showed off my outfit for the day. 

I was wearing a black bodysuit with one of Kalen's old jerseys from last year and my Air Force 1s. I did my makeup because I wanted to look somewhat decent and my hair was pulled back into a ponytail. 

"I love it." Christian said with a smile on his face. "Sunshine, I have to get going but I can't wait to get back home to you. Be safe and have fun."

"Okay, baby. I love you! Good luck today!!" I said to him with a big smile on my face. 

"I love you too, sunshine. Thank you and tell Kalen I said good luck as well." He said to me as he prepared to leave his hotel room. 

I nodded and said, "I will! I'll talk to you later."

After that, we hung up and I finished preparing for the game. Once I was done, I got in the car and started to make my way to the school for the game. 

It was pretty easy to find close parking to the field when I arrived because it was still a bit early. Not many parents come until right before the game is about to start. 

I parked and made my way to the stands to see both teams warming up on the field. I sat towards the front like I always do and looked out to the field to see if I could find Kalen anywhere. I saw him in the outfield catching some fly balls that his coach was batting out to them. 

After about five minutes more people started to show up at the game. I saw Brianna and her mom eventually show up and walk over to where I was sitting. 

"Hi Rayleen." Brianna smiled at me and then hugged me. 

"Hi! I love your shirt." I smiled at her as I saw her shirt that said '#8 proud girlfriend'. 

"Thank you! I made it myself." She said, showing it off. "I could make you one if you want." She said and I nodded. 

I then looked behind her at her mom and said, "Hi Camille, it's great to see you again." I greeted her since we hadn't seen each other since the Thanksgiving we spent at her house. 

"Likewise!" Camille smiled at me as she took a seat on the bleachers. "Brianna told me you were pregnant? Congratulations!!" 

"Thank you." I smiled widely as I thought about the baby that was growing in my stomach. 

We spent the rest of the time at the field talking and cheering for Kalen when he made good plays. I made sure to take videos of him like I would do at every game I went to because he liked to look back at his highlights. 

In the end, they won 9-3 and we celebrated by taking Kalen to Chili's along with some of his other teammates. Overall, it was a good day, and at the end, I was able to call Christian who had also won his game.

AUTHOR'S NOTE:

Just a little filler before the next chapter which I hope will be way more eventful and entertaining than this one. I'm sorry for the delay in my updates, I have recently started college and I am just trying to situate myself.

Either way, thank you all for the constant support and I hope you have enjoyed today's chapter. LOVE YA'LL❤️❤️❤️
