Unexpected (Tyler Herro/ Miami Heat)

Fourteen

The Heat were playing the Bulls in Miami. They had just beat the Wizards at home on Friday and were looking for another home win to keep their streak going.

Arlie has been doing great with school and passing all her classes.

It's been almost two weeks since she and Tyler had officially gotten together. So far, everything is good.

Arlie had Bam over to hang out after practice since she hasn't been with him for a while. And after all, since Josh left he's her last hope.

"So have you guys done anything besides hanging out?" Bam asked.

"Like what?"

"Netflix and chilling, you know the good stuff."

She rolled her eyes, "no."

"Kissed? Please tell you me you two have kissed at least."

She but her lip, "uh....not exactly."

"Oh my god, you guys are grown ass people. Suck it up."

"I know, but everytime we get close something always happens."

"Like what?"

"Well when Ty asked Duncan if it was ok, we were about to kiss there but again Duncan showed up."

"Ok that was once."

"And when we first met...we were about to kiss and my sister opened the door."

"Ouch, she blocked him up."

"I also don't want it to be rushed. I want it at the right moment."

"The hell you talking bout?"

"Like it just naturally happens."

"Whatever." He laughed.

There was a knock, she got up and opened the door.

"I have something for you." Tyler smiled.

Arlie invited him in, "what is it?" She asked closing the door.

Tyler handed her a jersey and a ticket, "please tell me you haven't worn this." She cringed.

"I did and I got it all soaked in my sweat just for you" He joked.

"You got me a ticket for tonight's game?"

"Yeah. Meyers's wife, Elle, is gonna sit next to you while you support your man."

"I always support you."

"Now you got a jersey to show off."

"Awe Ty, did you get me something?" Bam said walking over.

"You got me." Tyler said.

Bam sized him, "not enough."

"Ok that one hurt." He grabbed his heart in pain.

Arlie rolled her eyes, "so where are we sitting?"

"Right by the heat bench. Courtside."

"Really?"

"Yeah I wanted you closer."

"Ew, get a room." Bam said.

Arlie and Elle ended up becoming really good friends.

"So you've lived in Miami all your life?" Elle asked.

"Yeah, I love it here. How are you liking it?"

"It's great so far. I would love to stay here but that's the thing about this job, you never really know."

"I get it, but you guys are perfect."
