But here you were getting ready for your baby gender reveal party.

              You and Jordie had been married for just over a year now and you were expecting your first child. Since the hockey season was over, your friends and family had gotten together to throw you a gender reveal party before everyone went their own way for the off season. It was their way of being supportive and celebrating with you, even if neither you nor Jordie planned on having a party.

              "You excited?" Jordie asked, wrapping his arms around you, causing your baby to kick like crazy. He or she always knew when daddy was there.

              "Oh yeah" you said. "Ever since I've been told about this, I've been anxious to find out, but" you paused as you turned to him. "You know I don't care right?"

              "I know" he said, chuckling. "But they want to do this for us, so what'll it hurt, eh? And now we'll get to find out if it's going to be Jake or Jordan."

              "I thought we'd agreed on Jasmine?"

              "We'll discuss it" he said, kissing you. You rolled your eyes, but you were running late so there was no time to argue baby names now.

              You had a few months to bring him to your side.

              "Are you ready?"

              "Absolutely. Let's go." Jordie helped you down the stairs and into the car to drive you to Carey's house. You and Angela had grown close in your time in Montreal and Angela was the one who had come up with the idea.

              Everyone else just encouraged it.

              "There's the happy mother to be!" You smiled as Chucky and Gally helped you out of the car. "Ready to find out what you're having?" Gally asked.

              "Absolutely. I'm sure there's plenty of things to drag out the suspense though" you teased. Gally groaned.

              Gally was probably more excited than you and Jordie combined to find out what you were having.

              "You can wait another hour" Jordie said.

              "Yes dad" Gally said. You laughed. You stepped inside the Price home and were immediately in awe. It was a nice grey color scheme with pops of blue and pink throughout the house.

              "Hey!" You hugged Angela as the men made their way to where Carey was handing out beer. "It looks great in here! Thank you so much for doing all this for us."

              "Not a problem" Angela said. "I'm so glad you guys were willing to let me do this."

              "Can I steal her?" you looked behind Angela to see your brother-in-law. "Hey (Y/N)." You hugged Jamie tightly, your baby kicking like crazy. "Woah they're an active little fella, huh?"

              "They're just happy to see Uncle Jamie again" you said laughing.

              "So when are we going to get to find out what you're having?" he asked.

              "Whenever Angela says so" you laughed. You were pulled away from your brother-in-law by an old friend. You spent the rest of the party catching up with your friends from Dallas and your family that you hadn't seen since the beginning of the season. Finally, Angela collected you and Jordie and led you out to the backyard.

              "What are we doing?" Jordie asked.

              "I'm guessing the reveal" you said looking around.

              "Alright. Are you guys ready?" Angela asked. She handed you a hockey stick and set an egg on the ground in front of you. "It will explode with colored powder when you hit it."

              "Easy enough" Jordie said.

              "Yeah if you could hit something with your stick" one of the boys hollered back. You laughed as Jordie glowered in that direction.

              "Ok ok" you said, still giggling. "We would like to say something first." Everyone was quiet as they waited for you. There were so many people that you loved, wanting to be here for you, Jordie, and your baby. Just that thought had you choked up. "Thank you all for coming out today to celebrate with us. It means a lot to Jordie and me."

              "We'll be happy with whatever the results are" Jordie added. "If our little girl wants to play hockey, great! If our son wants to be a fashion designer or ballerina, also great! We just want a healthy-"

              "And happy" you interrupted.

              "And happy baby." Everyone clapped and cheered. You stood in front of Jordie, both your hands on the stick. "Ready?" he whispered in your ear. You nodded and both pulled back before swinging forward.

              Blue powder exploded on the ground in front of you.

              "A boy!" you cheered. You turned to Jordie who had a giant goofy grin on his face. "We're having a boy!"

              "We are" he said, hugging you. Your family and friends surrounded you, but you only had eyes for Jordie. He wouldn't say it, but he wanted a little boy to skate with.

              Looks like he'd get that.
