The Other Side *A Blake Griffin FanFic*

Settle Down

Blake groaned rolling over and looking at the back of the girl in bed next to him. He couldn't even remember her name and he barely remembered how they got there. He rolled back over grabbing his phone off the table hoping for a clue as to who the mystery woman could be. The only notifications he had were tweets from Marieka and Brielle about Miami. Brielle had posted a picture and Blake smiled when he clicked on the link seeing Marieka and Brielle in bikinis on the beach with drinks in their hands. Blake saved the picture and typed out a tweet in response.

@blakegriffin32: @mariekaalmostg @briebugOU lookin good ladies don't do anything I wouldn't do....

Blake threw his phone back on the table before rolling back over and looking at the figure still asleep next to him. He quietly nudged her trying to wake her up.

"Hey," Blake whispered.

"Yeah?" the girl whispered.

"I need to get ready for shoot around so....," Blake said grabbing his boxers and slipping them on.

"Oh right," the girl said getting up and grabbing her clothes off the floor. "How long are you in town?"

"Just for the game tonight," Blake said rubbing the back of his head.

"Oh. Well. Good luck tonight," She sputtered before walking out the door.

"Thanks," Blake said closing the door behind her.

Shaking his head he grabbed his phone and threw himself on the couch. He smiled seeing a response from both Marieka and Brielle.

@mariekaalomstg: i'm happily taken I wouldn't do anything you WOULD do! @blakegriffin32

@briebugOU: @blakegriffin32 don't you have a game to be getting ready for?!

Blake laughed and typed a response to Brielle.

@blakegriffin32: @briebugOU yeah yeah yeah don't you have a conference to be attending?

Blake got up and headed for the shower. He needed to clean his act up both literally and physically.

************************************

Brielle smiled seeing Blake's response to her tweet. She and Marieka were still laying out on the beach taking advantage of the free time Brielle had.

"I wish you two would just admit it to each other already," Marieka sighed looking at her friend.

"Huh? Admit what?" Brielle said typing a response back to Blake.

"That you two have feelings for each other. Think about it the sooner you get it over with the sooner we could be sisters," Marieka smiled.

"Stop it! Blake and I are friends,"

"Yeah. You're looking at your phone the same way I do when Taylor talks to me on it,"

"Even if I did it's not like anything can happen. I work in Oklahoma and he works in Los Angeles,"

"Details Brie,"

"He has a girlfriend Marieka," Brielle said standing up.

"Because that's stopped him before," Marieka snorted.

"And that right there is reason number three I will keep my feelings to myself. Come on let's go get ready for dinner," Brielle said folding her towel and shoving it into her bag.

"You could change that you know?" Marieka said grabbing her bag.

"People don't change unless they want to change. He doesn't need me to change him he needs to do that himself,"
