Going for Gold
A New Journey
- KATIE POV
I couldn’t comprehend what has happened over the past weeks, Jamie and I already started looking at homes together for when the baby comes however we knew we would need an extra bedroom for Tyler because wherever Jamie goes Tyler goes. At the press conference where the announced who on the Dallas Stars will be attending the Sochi olympics,( which thankfully included Tyler) Jamie had to announced the pregnancy causing controversy within the NHL with comments of “Aren’t you two both so young” “A baby not born into a married couple” “You haven’t been together that long”as time went on the comments died down and people began to accept it. Since then my stomach grew insanely fast, every morning Jamie would cuddle up next to me and kiss my belly and whisper to it “Hey baby, Im your daddy” it never grew old. The morning sickness was a whole other story, some days it barely hit me but boy when it did it was insane amount but it was going to be worth it in the end.
I was awaken from my thoughts with a soft shook from Tyler “Hey Jamie wanted me to wake you up, so you and I could run some errands”
“Errands” I mumbled sitting up “For what?”
“Sochi you idiotic doorknob” Tyler laughed “Now up and at em. How are you feeling?”
“Better today. Feet are killing me though” I sat up “Where is Jamie?”
“More press conferences” Tyler sighed happily “One more week till Sochi!”
Once Tyler left the room, I quickly got changed into a pair of black leggings and a flannel and a pair of tan flats allowing my hair to just fall. I ran my errands days ago before my feet swelled, However I knew Jamie wanted me to go with Tyler because he would go to the mall and end up buying a nerf gun or something stupid. When we got to the mall, we went into Nordstrom and got him some red and white ties and a bunch of other things, of course to show off some Canadian pride.
“Damn you look good” I chuckled fixing his tie “Still don’t know how to tie a tie though”
“Thats because I have you” He smiled proudly “Also I usually just get the clip ties”
“Are you serious?” I laughed sitting on the bench in the dressing room
“Makes life a little bit easier” He stated with a smile loosing the tie “Plus these are always too damn tight”
“There supposed to be” I groaned standing up fixing it again “If its loose you look as if you don’t want to be there and that you don’t take the event serious, which I hope you take the Olympics as a serious event”
“Trust me I know” He laughed “Alright how do I look?” He stood there smiling proudly again. God he looked amazing, how is he still single?
“Eh” I lied
“Oh c’mon” Tyler moaned resting his hands on my shoulders “What about now?” He said striking a pose
“There it is” I laughed “10 out of ten would bang you in that outfit”
“Good thing you already have” He smirked “Sorry I had to say it”
“Don’t be” I laughed “I would’ve said it too, can we get some food, me and the baby are starving”
“Yeah lets go” He smiled “Me and my baby are hungry too”
“You do realize you are a guy, and a not able to get pregnant right?” I questioned
“My food baby duhh” Tyler said sarcastically
After he got changed, we drove downtown to a local pizzeria. Tyler being himself got three slices and me? Well I got four, two for me and two for the baby.“So can you believe it, you’re pregnant, your best friend and boyfriend are NHL players who are about to play in the Olympics?” Tyler chewed
“Its unbelievable” I announced “Especially the first one, it feels like just yesterday we were sixteen year olds hanging out in your basement”
Chewing a bite from his pizza “Right! Man time sure does fly by fast”
“Hey Ty, remember the night after you won the stanley cup?” I questioned
“How could anyone forget?” He winked at me sarcastically
“You said something, when I was half asleep and for the life of me I can’t think of what you said” sighed
His eyes widen as he tried to swallow his bite of pizza. I realized what he said that night the morning after but I wasn’t sure if I was supposed to hear it, i’ve kept it to myself after all these years but since Jamie found out Tyler and I slept together when we were 16, months ago I’ve been dying to ask Tyler about it.
“Oh god, I don’t remember” He lied playing with his hair “Oh I know I know”
My eyes beamed up towards him “What?”
“I said you're on my arm” He lied again
“Oh I thought so” I pretended to smile
We sat there in silence for the next ten minutes just enjoying our pizza, not looking up until Tyler spoke “Any idea who the god father is gonna be?”
“Hmm, we have one annoying guy in mind” I laughed “We’ve been meaning to ask you this for awhile”
“wow” He spoke shockingly
“What?” I asked
“I’m gonna be a god father, thats insane. I’m gonna have to take care of a mini you and Jamie on date nights and I’m gonna be looked up too wow” He announced
“You are going to be great” I smiled
“This is amazing. Thank you so much” Tyler beamed
JAMIE POV
After an entire day filled of press conferences and answering a billion questions I have never been more happy to be home. How many times can a group of people ask the same damn questions over and over, I swear if they keep asking about my strategy for the Olympic games they’ll soon figure it out before I even do myself. As I threw my sweatshirt onto the counter, my eyes caught the tv light hitting Katies sleeping face, with a wash cloth covering her forehead god that poor thing, I swiftly picked her up into my arms, she let out a groan before realizing she was in my arms I tucked her into bed only placing the sheet onto her incase she gets hot.
“Tyler?” I softly asked in the halls
“Balcony” Tyler yelled
I made my way to the balcony, noticing Tyler had three empty beers sitting next to him “Hey man whats going on?” I asked patting him on the shoulder
“Just drinkin” He chuckled “Can’t you tell?”
“Nah can’t” I laughed picking up a full beer and taking a sip “So i’m assuming Katie asked you?”
“Yeah she did” Tyler sighed
“What did you say?” I gulped a sip
“Yes of course” Tyler went on “Its just a lot of pressure”
“How so?” I asked
“There is gonna be a little one looking up to and kids look to me all the time but they look up to Tyler Seguin the hockey player, this kid will look up to Tyler Seguin the person, on and off the ice. This little one who know the real me, thats a scary thought” Tyler went on “Of course this kid will have you to look up to, but you are the father you are allowed to make mistakes I’ve already made enough mistakes and I can’t screw up because I have a high rank as a godfather to not fuck up”
“Ty, you don’t have to act as if you are on a high podem. You’re allowed to make mistakes, because if you do you’ll show the right and wrongs of reality. You’ll be there to help, if the mini me or mini Katie is afraid to ask us about something” I answered
Tyler took a sip from his beer and let out a sigh. I knew he was scared of everything that was going on from playing in his first Olympic games and for being a soon to be Godfather. He had a lot on his plate since coming to Dallas, he knew any mistake he made everyone would talk non stop about it so he had to be on his best behavior
“Thanks man” Tyler smiled faintly “I needed to hear that”
“Congrats on being a god father” I smiled proudly patting him on the knee
“Congrats on being a father” Tyler smiled patting me back on the knee
“Can I get your permission on something” I questioned breaking the silence
“Permission?” Tyler gulped “For what?”
“To propose” I smiled taking a sip “To Katie”
“Oh my god” Tyler jumped up “Why do you need my permission though?”
“Since I really can’t ask her parents physically for their permission, you are the closest to family she has and I felt since you’ve known her longer than anyone and you know her thoughts” I coughed “I needed a family members blessing for this, its the only right thing to do”
Tyler still standing with one hand pressed against the beam “Chubbs you absolutely have my blessing, when are you going to?”
“Ideally when we win gold at Sochi right after they give out our medals” I went on “Even if we don’t win gold, and we get silver or bronze, at the medal ceremony I’ll still pop the question in front of all those thousand people and millions world wide”
“Shit man, you really go big on things don’t you” Tyler chuckled
“The captain has to” I chuckled standing up stretching
“Im proud of you” Tyler hugged me
“Thanks man” I patted his back “Im proud of you too”
