Curveball

Chapter 36

**Morgan's POV**

Waking up the next day and saying goodbye to Adam was super hard, you were grateful to have so much to do between the kids, the workout, choreography, and working on your parents room.  Diving head first into everything you got the kids ready, then dropped Kyle off at school.  When you got home your parents were already there waiting for you.  "Here let me take Cynthia for the day while you two go shopping."  Your Dad offers with a smile, you kiss him on the cheek before taking Cynthia out of the car seat with the keys to the apartment.   Taking full advantage of the time before you need to go pick up Kyle, you hit up a bunch of different stores.  Loading up your car with all sorts of things along the way, happy to be able to let your Mom pick all the things she wants.  At the one furniture store she falls in love with a set as you place the order for the bed, the dresser, and side tables.   Also making sure to get a big screen TV for their room along the way as well.  "Mom, how many time do I have to tell you, Adam has given me instructions to get you guys anything you want."  You say to your Mom as she debates on a beautiful art piece to put on the wall.   You take a break and have lunch together before you go to get Kyle.  "I'm so happy Adam decided to do this, it makes me so happy that he wants you guys included.  Especially with the craziness that has landed in our laps.  You guys were right though, I thought I had been in love but it was nothing like this."  Your Mom just smiles as she puts her hand on top of yours, "While it's not nice to say 'I told you so'.  I also can't help myself we told you that you deserved better than that last asshole.  You know we will always do everything we can for you as long as we are here.  I also apologize if you ever felt like we pressured you to feel like you had to have kids of your own.  We have no right to do that when we adopted you, and you are as much my daughter as one I would've given birth to.  When I see you with the kids, I see how they both look at you, they love you as much as you do them."  You hold back your tears, "Thanks for the daily cry Mom, now let's finish lunch, pick up Kyle and unload the car with all the things."   

The rest of the day goes nice and simple, you are able to pick up Kyle, then get everything into the apartment pretty quickly.  While Cynthia naps and Kyle works on his homework you decide to go through your warm ups before doing the choreography.  Putting your alarm on, as you had already decided to order Chinese Food for tonight, not to worry about cooking for everyone. Pushing yourself to go through all of your scenes, between your choreography and dialogue.  You are in your own world when all of a sudden the lights start to flash, blinking yourself back to there here and now you see your Mom smiling at you.  "You always did get lost in your work, the Chinese Food just arrived, so come on up and eat with us."  You smile as you follow your Mom up the stairs.  As you all eat dinner, Kyle tells you all about school, his teacher.  Seeing his enthusiasm reminds you of when you were a kid and how much you loved school.  After dinner your parents head home, since there isn't much to do outside of paint and wait for the furniture to arrive.  After helping Kyle with his homework, you then watch Toy Story with Kyle before putting him and Cynthia to bed.   You go through your entire exercise routine as you push yourself to add more and more everyday until you are going as hard as Adam, making a promise to yourself to surprise him when you see him.  Excited to see how he reacts to how much you progress in everything while he wasn't here.  

Throughout the week you talk to Adam as much as the time difference allows you to in between scenes and trying to allow the kids to have some facetime with Adam as well.   Surprised by how even your clothes is starting to feel different in such a short time.  On Thursday Eunice has you facetime her so that she can check on your progress since you were on your own.  "Morgan you are doing amazing, the only critique I can give is that you are still a little soft on your left side.  But I have no doubt by the time you get here you will be beyond good to go.   You keep working babe, we'll see you here soon."  You smile as you wave goodbye, "Thanks Eunice, see you in a couple of days, I'm excited."  The only thing that bothered you was the dream the you had kept happening every night.  Doing your best not to dwell on it, you were excited to have Adam hope for a few days just as the furniture would be arriving.
