Tobin and Alex sat close together, looking at the crow of reporters.
One of them waved, and Tobin saw who.
Tyler Baron.
Tobin waved back and smiled.
He mouthed to her. "Be strong"
She grinned.
"Okay. To get this thing started, Alex and I have something to say" Tobin says, holding Alex's hand under the table for support.
"We're dating" Alex said.
The reporters and camera men snapped pictures. Tyler smiled and gave a thumbs up to Tobin.
"We will now take questions" Alex said.
Tobin pointed to Tyler.
"How long have you two been together?"
"Over a year" Tobin answered.
Alex pointed to someone.
"Have you told your teammates?"
"Yes, they were one of the first to know" Alex said.
"Okay, this press conference is over" Tobin said, standing up, and grabbing Alex's hand.
People snapped pictures as they left the conference room.
"Tobin!" Tobin heard a familiar voice yell behind them. She stopped Alex and turned around to see Tyler running after them, board in hand.
"Hey Tyler. This is Alex. Alex, this is Tyler" Tobin introduced them.
Tobin gave a look to Alex, that said. 'be nice'.
"Hi" Alex smiled, and he smiled and said hi back.
"So whats up?" Tobin asked.
"I've gotta say, that was really brave of you two. To say that in front of the press, and to know the whole world will know by tomorrow" Tyler says, walking with them.
"Thanks. It was a little nerve wracking, but I got through it with her help" Tobin nudged Alex.
Alex smiled to the ground.
"So I have to do something for my job" Tyler sighs.
"What?" Tobin asks.
"I have to get a quote from both of you" He says.
"Okay. Heres mine" Tobin cleared her throat. "I could never have made it to where I am if it wasn't for Alex"
"Mine is: We're all different people, but have the same thought when it comes to love. When you love someone you will do anything for them, and I'd do anything for Tobin" Alex says, blushing a little.
"Thanks you two. I hate asking these questions to my friends, but I know you guys understand its just for my job" Tyler says, and the couple nods.
"Thanks for being there Tyler, even if it was for your job" Tobin smiles to him.
"It was my pleasure. And for the record, I volunteered to be there" Tyler grinned, Tobin and Tyler exchanged a moment of staring at each other. Alex cleared her throat. Tyler shook his head and left.
"Just a friend" Alex whispered to herself.
"Ready to go home?" She asked Tobin.
"Actually, I want to take you someplace" Tobin said, grabbing her hand and beginning to run down the street. Alex laughed as she got dragged along.
