Playing With My Heart (Klay Thompson)

Chapter 10

It's official! Ayesha is pregnant with a girl!
"Oh my god she kicked!," I squealed, my hand on her huge belly. I threw her a baby shower, even though she told me not to, I still did.

"I can't wait to see my beautiful baby girl!" She gushed, "I hope she's a mommy's girl, but if she's a daddy's girl, that's even cuter!" She picked up a bag of pretzels and started munching away.
I gave her a look, which she caught, her green eyes looking me up and down, "Don't look at me like that, I ain't sharing."

"Wow rude much?" I laugh, seeing everyone was having a good time.

She opened her gifts, loving the once I got her that was a shirt that said "Daddys Queen." And "Mommy's mini me."

The cake was the best part since Ayesha was a cooking master, "Dam girl back at it again with your third piece?" She was cutting her third piece, giving me a glare.

"Hoe I'm pregnant, so back the fuck off," She teased, stuffing down the cake.

"Hey now, no need for that kind of language soon to be a mom."

"Hmm, you're right, duck off loser." She grinned.

I spotted Klay with Steph in the kitchen, a look of nervousness all over his face. I wonder what they were talking about.

Klay Pov
I was talking with my boy Steph, mainly about life and basketball.
"I want a family man," I tell him, "But I'm scared I won't be a good dad."

"Yes you will man," He smiles, "I mean you and Elena are perfect for each other. Besides, it's not like your having to raise the baby alone, you have each other. When Ayesha and I planned it, yea we were nervous, but we're a team, and so are you and Elena. You guys would make great parents."

I take a deep breath, "Thanks man, that means alot. But still, I also want to be a good husband, but with our NBA careers and stuff, how can I manage?"

"Listen here, Ayesha and I have had the talk. At times I worry that my focus is more on the game than it is on her. But I love her way more than basketball, and to screw up a perfect marriage for some career that can be replaced, not worth it. Don't ever choose basketball over your family, I would never, and you won't either. Basketball can wait, but Elena, she can't be replaced."

"Man I love you, no homo," I laugh seeing his face.

"Anytime, I'm here if you ever need to talk." He smiles, as we do a bro hug.

Elena Pov
I was with Klay as we danced a little to the music. I laugh seeing Steph was trying to pull Ayesha's body close to his, but the bump kept them apart.

"Do you ever want kids?" Klay asked, a blush creeping up on his cheeks.

"Yea, do you?" I sip my drink that was in my hand.

"Yes, how many do you want? If you could choose."

"I would like three, why?" I nervously laugh, not sure why I was nervous.

"Oh, that's cool. Just asking, um, would those kids be from me?"

Was not expecting that...how do I answer that, "I mean we are going to get married right? So wouldn't they be?"

"Oh duh yea," He stutters, "I'm sorry, I just, I don't know."

"What? Are you wanting kids now?" I bit my lip waiting for his response.

His eyes widen, "Wait what? No, I mean yea but no not now. We should wait, right?" Why was he so stuttered?

"Yea....," I give him a look, "Well anyway, we should get going, I feel like Ayesha and Steph are tired, but to nice to kick us out."
