12 weeks later we are now announcing the pregnancy. Our plan is to bring everyone round and we'll give Kaylee something. I don't know. We haven't really thought about the whole thing.
Jay: who we inviting?
Hailey: only close friends and family. Well your family
Jay: our family. Where's Kaylee?
Hailey: she has basketball practice the soccer practice
Jay: is that not too much for her?
Hailey: she's been able to handle it so far
Jay: okay that's perfect we can set up while she's gone. I'll send a message to everyone
I sent a message to Hank, Trudy, Kevin, Adam, Al, Kim, Erin, Kelly, Matt, Shay, Dawson, Connor, Will, April, Noah, Maggie, Tessa, Zach and Cruz.
Jay: Meet up at mine at 4.
We decorated the house and we put together the present we were gonna give Kaylee to announce the pregnancy.Kaylee pov
I had just completed basketball practice
Coach Brea: Kaylee can you stay behind for a second
I looked at Tessa confused
Tessa: it's probably nothing
Everyone left leaving me and Brea
Kaylee: are you dropping me from the team?
Coach Brea: no of course not
Kaylee: then what is this?
Coach Brea: me and Coach Evans have been speaking and we wondered how you'd feel about playing varsity basketball. It won't just be training. You'll be playing games too
Kaylee: really? Why me?
Coach Brea: you were doing well in varsity training until Principal Monroe dropped you from the team. You've made so much progress that you need a new challenge. What do you say? You up for it?
Kaylee: yeah
Coach: good Coach Evans will speak to you at some point
Kaylee: thanks coach
I went to the changing rooms and got ready for soccer. I went out to the pitch.
Tommy: Kaylee you okay?
Kaylee: yeah I just came from basketball practice
Tommy: take it easy this training session okay?
Kaylee: alright
We warmed up and then went through some drills but I began to feel weird and tired.
Kaylee: Tommy can I sit out?
Tommy: you okay?
Kaylee: I just need 5-10 minutes
Tommy: that's fine no problemTommy pov
I kept an eye on Kaylee. When she's tired and overworks herself that's when her seizures are bad. After a break she joined back in. We went into a little 6 vs 6 game and Kaylee was about to score until she just froze.
Sarah: Tommy we need some help over here
Kaylee tensed before dropping to the floor in convulsions
Tommy: girls can you go to the changing rooms for me and someone grab coach Evans. Ryan ran out to the pitch
Ryan: how long?
Tommy: a couple minutes
The convulsions died down to twitches before stopping completely. She came around quite quickly
Kaylee: I'm sorry
Tommy: what you sorry for?
Kaylee: I ruined practice
Tommy: don't be silly you didn't ruin practice
Ryan: I've called your dad he's gonna be here soon okay
Kaylee: mhm
Her eyes kept fluttering shut
Tommy: sleep if you want
Kaylee: mhm
She fell asleep
Ryan: what triggered it?
Tommy: overworking herself I think. She came straight from basketball practice
Ryan: she okay. That's definitely something we'll have to discuss with Mr HalsteadJay pov
I just got a call from Kaylees coach. She had a seizure on the pitch. I was now on my way to collect her. I arrived at the pitch and Kaylee was asleep.
Ryan: I think we should alternate the days she's training as training back to back is obviously too much for her
Jay: what do you mean?
Ryan: training basketball one week then soccer the next
Jay: oh okay. Yeah. I'll talk to Kaylee about it.
I carried her to the car and made our way home. I carried her into the house and laid her in her bed. I went downstairs and Hailey was finishing the box for Kaylee
Hailey: she okay?
Jay: yeah she just overworked herself
Hailey: should we postpone the announcement?
Jay: No. Kaylee would never forgive herself if she found out
Hailey: you think she'll be okay?
Jay: yeah hopefully all she needs is sleep. You finished her present?
Hailey: yeah it looks really cute
A few hours later there was a knock at the door
Jay: it's open
Will and Kelly's walked in with Owen and Jaxon. Jaxon ran up to me.
Jaxon: uncle Jay I missed you
Jay: I missed you too kiddo.
Jaxon: I made you a picture at school
He passed it to me and I just stared at it. It was me and him arresting someone
Jaxon: do you not like it?
Jay: I love it
Jaxon: I'm gonna be a cop like you uncle Jay and arrest bad guys
I gave him a hug.
Jay: you know what? This is gonna go on the fridge
Jaxon: can I do it?
Jay: sure you can kiddo
He took the picture and ran into the kitchen. I looked at Owen and he kinda hid away
Jay: we not having a good day today?
He shook his head
Jay: does Uncle Jay get a cuddle?
He walked over and held his arms up and I picked him up.
Will: he's been really anxious for some reason
I whispered in his ear
Jay: how about you wear uncle Jays hat of invisibility?
He nodded
We went to the kitchen and I grabbed my hat and put it on him. I put him down and he started running around
Will: thanks brother. So what you call us over for?
Jay: wait and see brother. Wait and see
Will: where's trouble?
Jay: she had a seizure at practice so she's in bed sleeping
Will: have they improved?
Jay: massively she's been having more good days than bad days
Will: that's good
Justin, Connor, Daisy and Freddie walked in
Daisy: Uncle JayJay
Jay: hey kiddo. Hi Fred
Freddie: hi Jay
Jay: how's things with Cory?
Freddie: shit but that's his problem not mine. Why are we here?
Will: 'wait and see brother. Wait and see'
Freddie: where's Kaylee?
Jay: she's sleeping. She'll be down when she's ready
Freddie: seizure?
Jay: yep
Everyone else arrived and Kaylee came down the stairs. Zach went over and kissed her. Justin cleared his throat and we all started laughing.
Will: are you gonna tell us why we're all here?
Jay: well we have a present for Kaylee
Justin: and we all have to be here?
Hailey gave Kaylee the box and she opened it. She looked confused
Kaylee: I don't get it
Jay: give it a few seconds
The look of realisation was funny
Kaylee: no fucking way! You're having a baby! I'm gonna be a big sister
She gave us a hug and everyone started cheering.
Adam: can we have some food now?
We all looked at him and started laughing
