When Lily Langston goes to a game with her best friend. The last thing she ever thought to happen was being hit in the face with a ball.
But what left her even more shocked was when the guest pitcher himself, the known ruthless billionaire Hayes Gr...

Her little hand gripped to mine as I walked forward. I watched as her little body squirmed impatiently as we approached the building.
She'd only been to where Hayes worked very few times. But today when he texted us to come for lunch, I'd never seen her more excited.
"Mama" I hear her squeal as we drew closer to the building. She was just about two and my baby girl was walking. It was a surreal moment as a parent to see your child take her first steps. So as she wobbles slightly as I open the door, I lift her up into my arms resting in her on my hip.
"You ready?" She squeezed my hand nodding her head yes rapidly. Eyes linger on me, mostly because our child's never out in public. Me and Hayes do our best to hide Charlie from the media. Her fingers touch my belly causing me to giggle from the tickled sensation.
I enter the elevator pressing the top floor as I hold her in hand "Baby brother" I repeat.
"Baba" She replies.
Being 27 weeks pregnant and a mother of a toddler wasn't easy, it never would be. But finding out I was pregnant again- so soon after having Charles was overwhelming. But we made it through and we still do each day.
I make it to the top floor and wave off the secretary as I'm redirected to a room to wait in as he finishes up his meeting.
"Mummy I'm hungry" She pouts as I set her down. I too was hungry but Hayes wanted to do lunch and I wasn't going to deter that. He'd usually come home. It was mostly when Charlie was an infant that I'd be here for lunch with him.
"I know we'll eat real soon" I promise taking a seat on the chair. I felt a little watched as the room itself was glass. So as I saw him stand in the room across the way shaking the hands of another, I felt relieved.
The investor left quickly and I made my way with Charlie out the door. My phone buzzes just to see it's him calling.
"Turn around" He lowers his phone and looks over to me shining his first smile of the day at my little bump. Then to our daughter who's looking in a different direction not understanding his presence.
"Hey Charlie" I whisper and she looks up to me "Look who it is!" I point to Hayes and watch the excitement fill her eyes as and her hand releasing mine.
"Dada!"
She wobbled towards him as fast as her little legs could go. She meets his feet and he quickly picks her up into his arms smothering her with kisses as she squeals "Princess!"
"Am I not your Princess?" I tease as he turns to me. A kiss is placed on my bump by him and he lifts his face up to greet me.
"Hi Mommy." He grins softly.
"Hi dada" I sink into his lips and then we pull away as James awkwardly is sitting at the desk in between us. Hayes opens the door to his office and we step inside.
