Live, Love, Laugh (James Neal Love Story)

Traded and Moving

Ellie's POV

I wake up in the morning and look to my left seeing the morning light hitting James perfectly. I carefully get out of bed careful not to disturb him and slowly walk into the living room, I turn on sportsnet and walk to the kitchen to start breakfast.

" and in other news, it has been confirmed that James Neal of the Vegas Golden Knights has been traded back to his former team, The Pittsburgh Penguins." I instantly run to the tv and pause it.

" JAMES, JAMES." I yell running into the bedroom and walking James up.
" What's going on babe." He says
" Come look at the sport news, hurry". I say before running back out into the living room.

" What's going on" he says running in
" You've been traded... back to the Penguins." I say
He looks at me with a mixed expression.
" How do you feel about this." He asks
" How do I feel, you are the one getting traded." I say

" You don't have to come if you don't want to move". James says
" James you are my husband and soon to be father to our child, I vowed no matter what happened in your career, health or life I would be there through ups and downs so I will be no matter how many times we have to move, I will stand by you through it all." I say

" Then Pittsburgh here we come." He says
We spend the next few days packing up our house and sending it all over to our house in Pittsburgh. When we fully get all our things to Pittsburgh, James has to start practice today, I'm going to the arena to meet up with James at lunch and bringing him burgers.

I look around the house and start to put everything the way we had it back in Vegas. Once I'm finished I grab the keys to the Range Rover and drive to the rink making sure to get James and I a hamburger on the way there. I enter the players entrance and follow the security guard to the players locker room. I enter and look around to spot James.

" James." I say walking over
" Hey Baby, what are you doing here." He says picking me up and spinning me around.
" I brought you burgers and do you really think it's a good idea to spin me around." I say

" Sorry, everybody this is my wife and soon to be mother of my baby Ellie Neal, baby this is my team." He says
" Hello everybody, and James I'll just take one of those burgers now." I say instantly eating the burger.
" Do you want mine too." He says looking at me

" no you need to eat." I say
" I'll get something after practice, here." He says passing me it
I look at the team and then James and say, " BEST HUSBAND EVER".

I finish my burger and stand up,
" I will see you at home, and you are welcome to bring some people over, I finished putting the house together. I'm just going to be Skyping Marc Andre today for a little bit. He wants to come visit when the baby is born to see his godchild." I say

" That sounds good." He says
I kiss him then go home.
