Today Patrick and I were heading to Seattle to see my Uncle Russ, Aunt Ciara, and their new baby, Win. Part of me was nervous as hell to break the news to my family, I sent the packages out this morining to mine and Patrick's family to announce our pregnancy. I still couldn't believe I was actually pregnant, it still felt so surreal to me.

"Everything okay babe?" Patrick asked me curiously, snapping me out of the trance I was in. I simply looked over at Patrick and smiled before nodding.

"Yeah I'm just a little nervous about our families finding out we're having a baby, that's all." I admitted honestly as I grabbed my bag.

"Hey, don't worry about our families okay? It's gonna be alright, they're gonna be excited." Patrick reassured me with a happy smile before hugging me. "Now let's go to Seattle." Patrick stated happily as he looked into my eyes.

Truth be told I was beyond excited to go to Seattle, Patrick and I needed a mini getaway. Training camp was about to start and I knew Patrick's about to have his hands full.

"Let's go." I agreed as I put an arm around Patrick's waist and walked beside him out to his car. Patrick drove us to the airport in Kansas City where his private jet is kept, Seattle was only three and a half hours by plane from Kansas City.

As Patrick and I boarded his jet, I thought about how good I felt. Today was one of the few days where I didn't feel horribly sick to my stomach, but I was feeling a bit more tired than usual.

Once Patrick and I got situated in the jet, we sat side by side and snuggled up to one another. We shared the same blanket as I laid my head on Patrick's chest. I really could fall asleep right here and now in Patrick's arms.

"How have you been feeling today?" Patrick asked me curiously, he knew I've been battling with morning sickness and nausea.

"Not too bad actually, just tired." I admitted honestly before looking up at Patrick and smiling slightly.

"Good." Patrick replied as he stroked my hair. "So aside from the sickness and tiredness, how're you feeling about being pregnant and about us having a baby together?" Patrick asked me curiously, yet concerned.

This question was such a hard one for me to answer because I was feeling so many things at once. I knew what I should say, but I decided to just be one hundred percent honest. I sat up and turned to face Patrick fully, I briefly looked down before I felt Patrick's hand on my cheek.

"Hey, it's okay baby just tell me what's on your mind." Patrick stated before smiling sweetly.

"Honestly I'm terrified." I stated bluntly before continuing. "I love you more than anything in this entire world Patrick, and I want nothing more than to start a family with you. But given your newly busy lifestyle, and everything I've been through these past few months I'm scared Patrick, I'm really scared." I admitted honestly while looking into Patrick's eyes full of fear and concern.
