Homerun In Atlanta (Dansby Swanson)

Chapter 8

CHICAGO (KRIS & JESS'S HOUSE)
"So Dayla how have you enjoyed living in Atlanta?" my mom ask as I grab some groceries from the back seat of her car.

"Its been actually really nice living in Atlanta. I thought it was going to take a while to get use to the temperature change as Georgia is always so much warmer than Chicago, but I've adapted really well. The horses are loving the big fields as well. Alot better than the small fields at the barn." I added stepping in to Kris's house.

"Geez mom, how much food do you think we need for 4 days?" Will ask as he grabs some bags from her.

"Well since I have years and years of having to make sure enough food was around for the 5 of you. Not to mention some of you are picky eaters, and a certain one of you sometimes forgets to make sure there is orange juice around. I brought some with me." my mom replied walking into the kitchen.

"Your mom is always prepared trust me we had a big list of things we needed before we left Fort Wayne." my dad added.

"Of course she did. And don't worry mom I made sure to bring enough bottle orange juice as well and now with the one you bought we should be good." Adam replied hugging our mom. Adam was diagnosed with type one diabetes in 2012. It came as a shock to the family, Adam being the oldest of my siblings he has always been the one we all look up to. Even though it was a change we all were able to adapt to it, even Adam since he continued to pursue his dream and achieved it.

"So what does anyone want to do before we have to go to Wrigley for the game?" Brock asked as his wife Erin walked up beside him.

"I vote food, but that's just me." Will says as everyone laughs.

"Of course you do. Well I'm glad that we all finally get to spend some time together." Kris added. "Its been weird being the only sibling living in Chicago. I know the perfect spot for food."

AT WRIGLEY FIELD
After our very nice family dinner that to be honest was a breath of fresh air, not to mention a good way to keep me distracting from reading Dansby's text messages about our little get together we were going to have after the game. I had to stop looking at them if I wanted to keep it secret, harder than it looks he's very persuasive. "So Day, any attractive Georgian men catch your eye yet?" I choke on my water when I hear Erin ask the question. "Woah you okay Day?" I nod.

"I'm okay, just wasn't expecting to hear that question." I reply as we continue to walk around Wrigley heading towards the area where we can get on the field.

"Oh come on, you get to spend time with Georgia boys and the Braves. And no offense but there are some very nice looking single guys on that team." Olivia mentioned. I started to block things and names out as we continued to walk and I started to feel the pressure of my secret starting to bubble up. Right before we reached the area to enter the field it happened.

"I've been sleeping with Dansby!!" I blurted out to the shock of Jess, Erin, Lacy, and Olivia.

"Dansby Swanson?" Jess asked and I nodded with wide eyes.

"As in the Dansby Swanson the short stop on the Braves?" Lacy asked looking at me as I nod once again as my breathing increased looking around at the people walking by.

"Have you told Adam anything about this?" Erin asked.

"Are going to tell Adam?" Olivia asks as i turn around with them on my heels as we walk onto Wrigley field.

I turn around to see the four of them looking at me. Sighing I respond "yes, yes that one, no, and I'll tell him eventually." I turn back around and start heading towards the Cubs dugout. "And none of you are going to say a word understood?"

I wave as Anthony Rizzo, Javier Baez, and Kyle Swarber meet us. I laugh as Anthony picks me up in a hug. "Rizzo put me down!" I smile as he finally lets go. "Its good to see you. Hey Javy, Schwarbs."

"Its good to see you too since you left and decided to move to Atlanta, and abandon us." Kyle says as I give him a look. "I'm joking, I know why you left."

"We still love you." Javy says putting an arm around me.

AFTER GAME
"That game was wild." Brock says as we wait for the boys to exit Wrigley. The game was back and forth but in the 8th inning Kris hit a three run home run giving the Cubs the lead and their relief pitcher Pedro Strop did his job and made sure the Cubs won 6 to 3.

"Oh here they come." Jess added as we watched for the Kris and Adam. I spotted Kris and smiled when he came walking over all proud with the biggest smile on his face.

"There's Adam." I turned to see where Lacy was looking and spotted Adam. I looked around to see if I could spot Dansby, but no luck.

"Hey I would love to hang out, but I told a friend I would meet up with them after the game so I'm going to go." I say as I said my goodbyes and headed to my car.

I started my car and sat there for a minute. I could not believe I was doing something like this and hiding it. Taking a breath I began driving towards the hotel. Hopefully this is all worth it.
