Married to the Game

6.Meet the Rents

I saw Blake's dad, Tommy, whisper into his mom, Gail's ear,"fresh start" was all that I could make out. I stopped walking next to Blake and looked down. I already felt horrible for not meeting them the first time and what was even worse was that they were upset about it too. I turned around and went out the door which made Gail and Tommy turn around. I got into my car and started crying. I saw the front door open. I did not expect it to be Blake since he was pissed at me and the face revealed was Gail's. I unlocked my car doors and she got in.

G: "well this wasn't how I wanted to meet you. Stop crying love. It's ok. I'm Gail if you didn't already know. " I wiped my tears and looked up at her.

A: "I know. Nice to meet you too I'm Aubrey. I'm so sorry I feel terrible for not being able to pick you guys up from the airport and missing the game yesterday. " she pulled my chin up.

G: "Honey no one is upset with you or disappointed I promise. I actually liked meeting you this way instead of acting like you were a driving service or in front of millions of people. I like you a lot already." We hugged and got out of the car. I went in and met Tommy and we ate dinner.

*after dinner*

A: "I'm really sorry babe. I feel horrible."

B: "it's ok babe. I just don't want this to become my last relationship." He looked down at his Jordan's and I pulled his chin up.

A: "it won't be anything like that." I kissed him and left. "Am I forgiven?"

B: "yes, but you know what will get me on my good side?" I lifted my eye brow. "You letting me hit tonight." I laughed and hit his abs.

A: "No horny Griff not the day before a game." He rolled his eyes and smiled. He leaned down and kissed me.

*next day (Sunday)*

I was on my way to Blake's house so that we could go to church with his parents before he left for morning practice before his game. Blake then called and said Doc needed them to come earlier for shoot around. So it looked like I was going to be going to church with Blake's parents. I was ok with it, but once again nervous. I pulled up and went inside.

G: "hey good morning hun!"
,
A: "good morning. Did Blake leave already?"

G: "yea sorry."

A: "Huhh it's ok i'll see him tonight I guess." Why didn't he just tell me? Gail, Tommy and I went to church. After church I dropped them off and went to my Condo. My agent Stephanie left me a voicemail saying that me and Jessica had to make a decision on Paris because it was in 1 month and we would have to get our fitting done. I also had practice for the VS fashion show. It would be my first year so I am so nervous, but it will help launch my career. When I got in the shower I realized how much I really missed Blake and how our schedules were so different from one another. Maybe we shouldn't be tog the right now. At not until my career starts settling down. The water caught my tears. I got out and straightened my hair, did my makeup, and then got dressed. I wore leather pants with a red shirt with the number 32 stretched across my chest. chest.

*at the game*

When I walked in with Blake's parents I got many looks from many people. Which made me feel a little uncomfortable but it was ok I guess. A young girl walked up to me and asked for a photo. Of course I said yes. We sat down in our seats and the game began. As we watched the game I got a text from Stephanie, my agent, saying that rehearsals for the VS fashion show would run all weak long from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Because the show was in two weeks and he had to be perfect. I just shook my head and locked my phone.

G: " is everything ok hun?"

A: "yes mam it's just my work and Blake's schedule don't really mix and I won't be able to see him much this week."

G: "oh honey! I know It will work out you guys just have to be stay determined and keep loving one another." She hugged me and smiled. I smiled back. As I did that D.J got a steal passed the ball to CP3 and lobbed the ball to Blake and he dunked the ball hard. He looked over at me and winked, but he wouldn't be so happy after I told him the plan for this week.

After the game I told Blake about my schedule for the week and was pissed off that I wouldn't be able to travel with him to his away game on Wednesday and that I wouldn't see him at all that week. I wasn't going to not do the Fashion Show that was going to jump start my career. I felt bad, but Blake was being selfish. I mean he got to play his games I wasn't stoping him, but when I have model stuff he wants me to just cancel. That's not possible. I ended up going back to my condo since this week was going to be long.
