You would think that being a model, you would get used to people staring at you. But he was different. Tyler turned around and walked upstairs. Jamie turned to me and said, "he'll talk eventually. He's probably just upset at his manager or something." I was confused, "what does that have to do with meeting me?" I asked. "He was just at a meeting with him. But I think we're doing a team dinner tonight. So do you wanna come with?" he asked. "am I going to be intruding? I mean the whole team will be there with their wives and I'll just be there as a sibling....so." "no no no. It's fine. It's at 7 so go get ready. If you don't mind can you go remind segs about it too?" "yeah sure" I answered. I walked up the stairs to the closed door I assumed was Tyler's room and knocked on it. I heard footsteps coming closer to the door, and a few seconds later he answered the door. "hey, Jamie wanted me to remind you that the team dinner is at 7." I said. "oh yeah, thanks. Anna right??" he asked. I nodded and smiled. "Are you coming with?" he asked and walked towards his closet. "yeah J asked me and I thought it would be kind of weird at first, but I figured why not." he looked at me and nodded. "I'll see you later then" I said and walked out of the room. "wait, Jamie has a girlfriend-I'm pretty sure you know that, so that means you're not his date. Isn't it going to be weird third wheeling?" he asked. I wondered if he was hinting that he wanted to take me, but I said, "no it's fine. She's nice so I'll be able to talk to them." He glanced up at me and quickly looked away with a slight frown on his face. "oh, ok. Well I'll see you later" he said and I took that as my cue to leave. I walked into my bedroom kind of confused as to why Tyler looked sad. I mean he couldn't have cared that much..we just met. But he's been single for a while so maybe he just wants a girl on his arm, I thought.
I walked over to my bag and decided to wear a maroon long sleeved dress with a flannel print scarf and tan riding boots. I put that on and walked back into my room to get my curling iron out of my bag. then went into the bathroom to plug it in. As I waited for it to heat up, I found a surround sound system in my room that hooked up to my TV or phone and played my party playlist. I curled my hair and headed downstairs to see Jamie and Katie (his girlfriend) waiting for me."wheres Tyler?" I asked. "speak of the devil" Jamie said as he walked over to us from the kitchen. Both Jamie and Tyler were wearing dress shirts ties and dress pants. While me and Katie were wearing similar flowy types of dresses. Katie looked at me and said, "are you planning on riding with us? Because we have to pick up one one of the other couples." I looked at Jamie and said "I can drive myself it's okay." But Tyler spoke up and said "She can ride with me". Katie looked at me and smiled, "you two could go as a date!" Katie is the average girly girl and loves shopping, clothes, shoes, hair, and boys etc. So this was no surprise to me that she would say that, but everyone in the room brushed it off and we walked outside to the garage. Katie and Jamie walked over to Jamie's Black Maserati, and Tyler walked over to the car I was assuming we were taking which was a white Ferrari. He got in and asked "is the Porsche yours?" pointing at my white Porsche Cayenne. "yeah Jamie got it for me last year as a birthday present" I said. "oh cool, I like it." he said. "do you have any siblings?" I asked. "I've just got Jamie, but you already know that." I said. "yeah I have two younger sisters Candace and Cassidy" he said. I nodded, we pulled up to a fancy looking restaurant and we got out of the car. Tyler walked over to the door and opened it for me, I smiled and said thank you. He looked around for the table and spotted the rest of the team at a table in the back. "hey segs" one of them said. "who's this pretty lady?" he said leaning closer to me. Tyler looked down at me and could tell I was scared so he stepped closer to me and answered "Anna". "well Anna, nice to meet you." he said and I could smell the alcohol on his breath. Tyler grabbed my hand and I flinched at his touch, but relaxed as he rubbed his thumb on my hand trying to comfort me. He then pulled my hand leading me to a chair next to Katie. He said, "I'll be right back I'm going to the bathroom." I nodded and turned to Katie. "what the hell was that Anna?!" she whispered. "I don't know, one minute that guy was hitting on me and the next he was pulling me away and holding my hand. Do you think it was like a friendly thing...or a protection thing?" I asked. "well I'll tell you one thing" she said, "Tyler doesn't just go around grabbing random girls' hands in front of his team or friends. Sure he might hook up with girls he meets at a club, but at events like these he always comes alone, and third wheels with me and Jamie." I sighed. "so he's just playing me?" I asked. "no no. Honey, he likes you. He's never acted this way before. Why did you frown? Do you want him to like you?" she smirked at me. I saw Tyler round the corner coming from the bathroom and said "maybe." he sat down and smiled, saying "are you okay, sorry about Patrick, he's obviously drunk, but you seemed really shaken up." he grabbed my knee and rubbed his thumb on the inside of my thigh. "yeah I'm fine" I said smiling. "thanks though".
The rest of the night went like that, Tyler doing random things like rubbing my leg, and holding my hand, and girl talk with Katie. When we got home I went to my room and showered. Then had to clean off my bed and move my bags. I decided that tomorrow I would go buy some more furnishing things for my room and sort out my bags and put things away. Maybe Katie can go with I thought, before I fell asleep.
