Giancarlo is currently on a week-long road trip. The road trip started off with 2 games in Miami which was his first time back in Miami since the trade. The fans gave him a warm welcome and gave him a standing ovation. The team honored him for the many years with the team and Gi was glad to be back in the city he called home for many years.
Today is August 24 and it's Jillian and Giancarlo's 2 year anniversary. Unfortunately for Jillian, their anniversary falls during the season and this year the schedule happened to make Gi be on the road in Baltimore. Although it's disappointing, she accepts it because she knows it's a part of being in a relationship with a professional athlete.
Gi had called her earlier in the day to wish her a happy anniversary and how he wishes he could be there in person. Jillian had told him she wishes he was there but wished him good luck on the game.
Instead of dwelling on her disappointment, she busies herself throughout the entire day, cleaning the house and doing whatever tasks she can to not think about Gi not being home. Eventually, she starts working on dinner. Since it's only supposed to be herself tonight she makes chicken Alfredo, since it's quick and easy. She is listening to top 40 music from her Bluetooth speaker in the kitchen, wearing only Gi's jersey. She dances around the kitchen which really help lighten up her spirits. Just as she's doing the finishing touches on the food, she hears someone unlocking the front door.
She panics and grabs the first item she can find and ducks under the island, hoping she can find a way to sneak up on the intruder. The front door opens and she peeps out from behind the island to see Gi standing in the doorway with a duffel hanging off his shoulder.
"Babe, what are you doing here?" she asks in shock, getting up from behind the island.
"Surprise!" he chuckles, watching her run towards his arms.
"You're supposed to be at Camden Yards right now warming up for the game," she replies, still in shock.
"Skip let me come. He listed me as Day to Day saying I have food poisoning. Said I could miss tonight and the 1st game of tomorrow's doubleheader but I have to play the 2nd half of the game," he explains.
"Yeah, remind me to thank Aaron Boone the next time I see him," she replies, leaning up to kiss him.
"It smells delicious in here," he replies, walking towards the kitchen.
"It's chicken Alfredo, do you want any babe?" she asks him, turning off the stove.
"No thank you baby. I ate before I came here," he replies.
She serves herself food and pops open a bottle of Pinot Grigio.
"You want some wine, babe?" she asks him, as he goes off to put his duffel in their room.
"No thank you, babe!" he shouts from their room.
She comes to the living room and sits down on the couch, placing her food and wine on the coffee table. He comes back to the living room and sits beside her. He grabs her legs and places them over her lap, running his hands up and down her long, smooth legs. He turns on YES network and he sees Brett Gardner step into the batters box for the start of the game.
Jillian eats her dinner while cheering on her boys and cuddling up to her man. Eventually, the game ends with a Yankees win.
"What do you wanna do for the rest of the night, babe?" he asks her, kissing her knuckles.
"Well it's late and you must be very tired, so I was thinking bath, then movies in bed?" she suggests, melting into his touch.
"Good thing I got us a condo that had a master bath with a large soaking tub, huh?" he teases, kissing her temple.
"You sure did, baby," she replies.
He gently lifts her up from the couch and the two clean up before heading to the master bath. He turns on the faucet in the large tub and she grabs a bath bomb and tosses it in. They both undress and Gi gets into the tub first, leaving his legs spread. She sits down in between his legs and lets her back rest against his chest.
"So how was it in Miami?" she asks him, as she feels the warm water relax her muscles.
"It was great. It was nice seeing some of the guys again like J.T and Justin," he replies, while leaving featherlight kisses on her shoulders.
"I'm glad. Did you fly here from Baltimore?" she asks him.
"Yeah, but I took a small private jet. No way was I gonna let the media find out about my food poisoning story being fake," he replies.
The two fall into small talk and just enjoy being in each others' company. The warmth of the water relaxes them, especially Gi who is in the middle of another long, grueling season. Eventually, their skin starts going pruny, so they get out of the tub. They dry themselves off and change into pjs; Gi in just his boxer briefs and Jillian in one of his old tees with no bra underneath and panties.
Gi turns on the TV and they go on Netflix. They start watching movies and a couple movies in, Jillian falls asleep in Gi's arms. As soon as Gi notices she fell asleep, he turns off the movie and turns off the lights.
"I love you," he murmurs in her ear, kissing her forehead before falling asleep with his girl in his arms.
