MLB & NBA Imagines

New Girl-Chris Taylor

Chris' POV:

"Yo," I say, walking into the clubhouse.

"'Sup," I hear my teammate, Cody say. Everyone greets me after he does with fist bumps and a few 'heys'.

I put my bag in my locker and start to get ready for practice. Then I hear Corey start saying something.

"You guys heard about the new reporter coming in?" He asks. New reporter? What happened to Alanna? "Alanna was transferred to work for ESPN, apparently," he says.

All the other guys nod and start their conversations along the lines of hearing about the reporter, whereas I, for one, have not heard about a new reporter coming in or Alanna accepting a job with ESPN. Then we hear Alex Verdugo say "I hope she's hot."

We all look at him. "Dude," we hear Austin Barnes say.

Dugie shrugs, obviously not seeing a problem at all. "I haven't heard about the new reporter, or Alanna going to ESPN," I say. All the guys look at me, shocked.

"Seriously?" Cody asks. I nod my head, being genuinely honest. "It's been going around for a few weeks now."

"I don't know if you remember, but I've been going to the doctors for my left wrist," I tell him.

He shrugs. "Makes sense," he says.

We all continue to have small talk as we lace up our cleats for practice. Then Dave Roberts walks in. "Gentlemen," he greets us. We all reply to him and he continues to talk. "As you all know, we're getting a new reporter," he says. Why does everybody know about them but me? "I expect you guys to treat her with the same respect you gave Alanna and give her a warm welcome. Now, before I introduce her, is everyone decent?" We all say 'yes' as Dave nods his head in approval. "Alright, Y/N, you can come in now."

Everything all of a sudden slows down as I hear heels clicking against the floor, and I see the most beautiful woman I've ever seen walk into the clubhouse. Hot damn....

All of the guys stop everything and just stare at her. I even hear Cody swallow air.

But, me? My mouth is agape, my hands start to sweat, and time just stops and focuses on her.

"Hi, guys," she says, softly. Even her voice is cute. "I'm Y/N, I'll be your new reporter."

Everyone blushes and waves shyly at her, but I'm completely blown away that I don't move. Corey then hits my right arm to tell me to snap out of it. I then smile at her as a greeting. Can you be anymore awkward, Chris?

Y/N greets everyone with handshakes and smiles as she gets everyone's names. She then turns to me, and all I see is her beautiful E/C eyes. "Hi, I'm Y/N," she says.

I don't say anything for a while and just look into her eyes. Is it possible they get more E/C the more you look into them? Cody slaps my arm to snap me out of my trance. "Uhm, hi, I'm Chris," I finally say. I stick my hand out for her to shake. She grabs my hand, and I've never felt softer and smaller hands. Her hands so small yet it fits so well in mine.

The handshake lasts a little longer than expected and Dave clears his throat to get everyone's attention, mainly mine and Y/N. We snap out of our trance and give him our undivided attention.

"Okay, Y/N, let me show you your office while the guys get ready for practice," he says.

Y/N nods and follows him to her office. She then stops and says "Just give me one second." Dave nods and waits for her outside the clubhouse. She then walks up to me, and I suddenly get nervous. Like really nervous. What's happening? What's she gonna do? Why am I so scared?

"Chris, right?" She asks. I gulp and nod at her. She hands me a piece of paper with a smile. "I'll see you around," she says with a smirk on her face. Y/N then walks out of the clubhouse, and I'm as confused as ever. What just happened?

"What's it say?" Austin asks.

I shrug as I open the paper. Once I open the paper, my jaw drops slightly. (xxx)xxx-xxxx Call me ;) - Y/N. "It's her phone number," I say, not really believing it.

The guys whistle and holler at me as a way of saying congratulations. "You gonna call her?" Kershaw asks me.

"Yeah, I'm gonna call her," I tell him. Cody fist bumps me and says "my man."

We all then head out to the field to start practice as the guys pat my back as we walk through the dug out.

Once we get on the field to start stretching in the LA heat, I see Y/N talking to the other reporter, David. She sees me and smiles and waves. I do the same as I walk towards Corey and Cody.

"You're whipped," Corey tells me. Cody agreed with him as I chuckle at them.

"Maybe. Maybe not," I say. I look at her from a distance as I continue stretching.

I definitely am whipped.
