Unexpected (Tyler Herro/ Miami Heat)

Seven

Summer league was over so Tyler, Arlie, Bam, Duncan, and Kendrick all headed back to Miami together.

They landed at night but Arlie invited everyone to her apartment.

However once they got inside they heard a lot of noises.

"What the hell is that?" Arlie asked.

They all walked inside and looked around.

Then they heard it.

"Oh. Oh! Oh my god! EW!" Arlie covered her ears and ran out the door.

"Oh dear god!" Tyler said running out next.

"What's wrong?" Bam asked walking inside.

He heard PJ and Jess in the room.

"Oh hell nah!" Bam walked out with Duncan and Kendrick.

"I've never been so disgusted in my life." Arlie said.

"It's cause her sisters getting some and she isn't." Bam laughed.

"Same with you asshole." She said as they walked in the elevator.

"So what do we do now?" Kendrick asked.

"We could sit along the pool." Arlie suggested.

"I'm down with that." Tyler said behind her.

They got down the the pool area and sat down on the edges. They took off their shoes and rolled up the pants to stick their feet in the warm water.

"So are you guys ready for this season?" Arlie asked.

"Nah." Bam said.

"Why?"

"Just the nerves." Duncan said.

"What about the rooks?" Arlie asked.

"A little nervous but ready." Tyler said.

"Kinda terrified." Kendrick said.

"Why?" Arlie asked.

"I spent a lot of time in the G-league and the Heat gave me a chance and signed me. I don't wanna disappoint them..."

"No...that's not who you wanna disappoint."

He looked over at her, "I don't wanna disappoint Kyren..."

"Because he looks up to you huh?"

"Exactly. So if I get kicked down I don't want him to be afraid to try."

"He won't it be since he has you as a father."

"Thanks." He smiled.

"Oh so he does smile." Arlie teased.

They laughed, "always trynna act tough." Duncan said.

"Exactly." Tyler agreed.

"So you excited for College?" Bam asked Arlie.

"Hell nah. Nope, not one damn bit." Arlie said.

"Why?" Duncan asked.

"Because it's fucking college."

"Well maybe you'll be like your sister and find the love of your life." Kendrick laughed.

Tyler's smile disappeared as reality hit him.

He's going to be traveling A LOT while she's staying put in Miami and going to college. What if she does find someone else there.

"Nah I doubt it." She said.

"Why?" Duncan asked.

"Jess got lucky. And besides I'm too young. Why would I be thinking about that now."

"I said the same big and then BOOM! Next thing I knew I had a son." Kendrick said.

"You know you don't have to go to college right away?" Tyler asked.

"I know..." She said turning to him.

"Take an off year if you're not ready."

"Yeah, there's no rush." Duncan said.

"Exactly, do what you're comfortable with." Bam said.

"I just hope they're done fucking up there." Arlie said.

"Why?" Kendrick laughed.

"Cause I got a gig tomorrow."

"Modeling what?" Duncan asked.

"...Swimwear." She got up and started walking away.

The guys all looked at each other and quickly got up to follow her, "swimwear?!" Bam asked.

"Yes." She said as they started walking to the elevator.

"Like one pieces or two?" Kendrick asked.

"Maybe both. I don't know." She said getting in the elevator.

"And what time?" Tyler asked.

"12." She said.

"Where?" Duncan asked.

"South beach. I'm doing it with a group." She said getting out in her floor.

"For who?"

"Victoria Secret." She said walking in her apartment to see PJ and Jess on the couch watching TV.

"I thought they stopped their bathing suits." Kendrick said.

"Not online." she said grabbing a water bottle.

"Can we go with you?" Bam asked.

"Go where?" Jess asked.

"She has to model for bathing suits." Tyler said sitting next to PJ.

"Duncan?!" Jess said in shock.

"I'm gonna get Tyler settled on the couch." Arlie said trying to get away from them.

Arlie grabbed the air mattress from the hallway closet and set up PJ with the blow dryer.

She walked to her room to get bed sheets and Tyler walked in, "I can stay with Bam if you want." Tyler suggested.

"Well if you wanna be with his mom then be my guest." She laughed.

"Or Kendrick or Duncan."

"It's fine."

"I'm looking at apartments tomorrow."

She quickly stopped what she was going and turned around, "really?" She asked in shock.

"Yeah at 10."

"Oh..."

"Yeah just thought you should know." He smiled then walked out.

She sat on her bed still in shock that he would be moving soon.
