AN: Spain and England in the same Nation's League group... I'm already planning how Mapi and Kaia (and their son) will tackle it😅

When Kaia did find Mapi's parents in the stands, she had a beer in one hand for Javier and two bottles of water for herself and Pilar.

The two of them were also wearing Mapi's shirt; Javier her Barça home shirt and Pilar her Spain away shirt. Then they told Kaia how Mapi had ordered them not to wear her Spain home shirt because she only wanted Kaia in it so she was easier to spot.

"We've just seen Cecilia." Pilar says as she takes the cool water with a grateful smile. "She let me feel her stomach-"

"-did you feel a kick?" Kaia interrupts in excitement, and when Pilar shakes her head she groans jokingly. "Mapi and I have been trying to be there for one for ages, but apparently he's only active in the night."

"It tends to be that way." Pilar chuckles supportively. "But you have both been speaking to him, yes? So he knows your voices."

Kaia nods and almost laughs into her sip of water at the question, her eyes out on Spain warming up; more like her Spaniard and those nicely fitted navy shorts she's wearing. "We've started going to Cecilia's every Friday to spend the evening talking to him, or in Mapi's case; singing and rapping."

"She raps to him?" Javier laughs loudly.

"Oh yeah, she sounds like 50 Cent at times." Kaia chuckles along and Javier laughs even louder. "Don't tell her I told you that."

"This conversation reminds me..." Pilar reaches down into her bag and takes out a plastic bag wrapped around the contents tightly. "I know it's risky giving you this here."

Kaia takes the bag with a smile, unconsciously making sure no one can see into the bag as she lifts the opening to take a quick peek in.

"It's just a little something." Pilar smiles largely at the happy and excited smile it puts on Kaia's lips.

"A little something he'll grow out of in a month." Javier chuckles, his attention having turned back to the football and watching his daughter command the defensive warmups, looking the sharpest and confident in calling out orders to run them through the drills more smoothly.

In the bag was a pack of five newborn shortsleeved bodysuits, all with different designs from dinosaurs to simple stripes. Kaia put her hand in, and the moment she felt the quality of the soft cotton, she knew one of these suits would be the very first to go on. "Thank you so much, these are beautiful." She leans over to hug Pilar tightly. "I can't tell you how stressed I've been with all of this." She chuckles. "Knowing it's going to be a boy has just made it feel so much more real and he'll be here so soon."

"If this makes you feel any better," Javier blindly reaches over his wife to tap his daughter's fiancé on the knee. "You have a hell of a lot to do before then. Including winning all the other club trophies available and getting married."

"Yeah, that just takes all my stress away." Kaia sasses with a dry smile.

"Then an incredible honeymoon to Greece." Pilar adds on.

Kaia chuckles and a loving smile appears on her lips. "Exploring islands full of cats with Mapi. I didn't think this through, did I?" She jokes.

"You love cats just as much." Javier accuses.

"Yeah, that's true." Kaia has to admit.
