My alarm rings at 8am. Today is the day! A 6th lombardi trophy in our reach. Breakfast is brought to my room, surprising me a little bit. I see there's a note.
Lobby 1:00 by the fountain don't be late
~ Jimmy
So mysterious. I eat my waffles before I hop into the shower wanting to be fresh for at least the morning because Florida does NOT play with this humidity. I blow dry my hair before straightening it. I get into my two piece outfit and love the way I look! Oh my god who is she? Oh that's right, she's about to be a 6 time Super Bowl Champ! I see the time as I finish putting on jewelry, it's 12:55. Where the hell does time go? I mean makeup takes time but I need to get better at managing it.

I head down to the lobby and stand around then it hits me, who the fuck am I meeting? He's been at the stadium since 11

I head down to the lobby and stand around then it hits me, who the fuck am I meeting? He's been at the stadium since 11. I look around and see a family in Garoppolo jerseys. Does he want me to meet fans?

"Are you Emeraude?" An old man nervously asks. I look up at him and smile.

"Yeah I am." I nod.

"Oh great." He sighs. "Sorry we haven't met, I'm Tony." He introduces himself.

"Hi Tony." I nervously say as I shake his hand.

"And this is my wife Denise, my sons Mike, Jr, and Billy." I go down the line shaking their hands, obviously weirded out.

"You guys big Jimmy fans?" I ask, pointing out their jerseys.

"Yeah you can say that." Tony replies as the whole family laughs, ok oh my god this is getting scary.
I continue to look around trying to see if maybe he left something for me but I don't see anything.

"Emeraude!" I hear my dad yell. I turn and call him over.

"Hi dad." I smile giving him a hug.

"Hey sweetie you look beautiful." I give him a shrug making him laugh. "What are you doing here, it's almost time to go."

"I was told to come here, oh and I've met this lovely family." I say motioning to the group. "Dad this is Tony, Densise, Jr, Billy and ummmm Mike?" I say questioning my memory. "Guys this is my dad Jed York." I introduce.

"Sweetheart." My dad says I can sense he's feeling embarrassed.

"Yeah?" I quietly ask.

"Those are the Garoppolos." He whispers by my ear.

"You can't give them the nickname based on the shirt dad." I laugh off.

"No honey I mean those are Jimmy Garoppolo's parents and brothers." He informs me. I feel like my blood has been drained from my body and want to hide under a rock.

"Oh my goodness!" I say bringing my hands to cover my face. "Guys I am so so so sorry!"

"No worries, we thought Jimmy had told you."

"No he didn't tell me anything. Just told me to be here at 1:00." I say with an embarrassed smile. "But now we've been introduced."

"Mr. York the car is out." My dad's driver says.
