*Kiana POV*

I made my way down the teal and orange hallway to the lockeroom. A few minutes ago Jarvis texted me saying I should be there asap.

I wasn't sure if it has anything to do with me leaving or if it was an actually emergency. But being the athletic trainer for the Miami Dolphins didn't leave much room for me to say no.

The lockeroom was dark when I pulled the door open. I cautiously walked into the room. If this was a trick than that wouldn't be the first time.

"Jarvis Charles, you better not be tricking me."

Suddenly the lights flicked on and Jarvis popped out of his hiding spot along with the rest of the team.

I noticed the locker room was decorated. This was a party.

"Suprise" they yelled.

Jarvis ran towards me and engulfed me in a hug. I was in complete shock.

"What is this ?" I questioned.

"What type of family would we be if we didn't throw you a going away party." Ryan Tannehill said.

I had grown really close to most of the players on this team. And I had to admit I was going to miss Ryan and all of them.

"Aww guys. I'll fly down here during the offseason."

I felt a large shadow behind me as I slowly turned around.

"Donkey Kong Suh. I'm going to miss you the most." I told Ndamukong using the nickname I gave him.

"Mhm, sure you are." He chuckled.

I looked at all the faces in the locker room beginning to tear up. But I decided to wait until I was alone to cry.

Moving to New York to work with the Giants wasn't the most exciting thing to think about. Especially when I have to work with the man I hate the most.

"Kiana sit right here. We'll be right back." Jarvis said leading me to a chair in the middle of the room.

Jarvis, Ryan, and Ndamukong went somewhere leaving me with a couple other players.

"So are you excited about leaving." Somebody asked.

There was so many people there I didn't know who it was.

"Nah. I'm not really a New York person. But whatever pays the bills."

We all shared a laugh.

"You think you and Odell will get along ?" DeVante Parker said draping his arm around me.

Even though DeVante already knew about my past with him he always asked.

"Um hell no."

"Well." He chuckled "Don't kill him than okay."

"I make no promises."

"I'm gonna miss messing with you Kiana."

I was pulled into a hug for the thousandth time that day.

A second later Jarvis, Ryan, and Ndamukong arrived with a giant box in hand.

"This is just something from the team." Jarvis said placing it on my lap.

I felt a tear run down my cheek that I quickly wiped away before tearing into the box. Inside lied five items.

A photo collage of me and the players. A jersey with the teams signatures. One giant bag of sour gummi worms, my favorite candy. A teal Dolphins bucket hat, and a IPhone 6S case with Jarvis "catching" the apple sign.
