After about a half hour more, Dave, Roman and Andy Reid came out and sat on the stage. I was so ready for this conference to be over with and it had barely begun. We needed to go to Bed Bath & Beyond to get some sheets for our bedroom before the night was over so we could go to bed tonight. I was ready to crawl up on some silk sheets, cuddle with my man and enjoy our new home. Today was a good day and I was ready to have a good night.
"Roman!!!! NBC Sports here. Great game, but I can't help but notice the absence of you and Dave's friendship out in public. Why is that?"
The room fell silent and Dave started to mumble under his breath. I could tell by the look in Roman's face that he wanted to be petty, but my eyes begged him from across the room not to.
"What was that, Dave?"
"I said we just had some irreconcilable differences. That's all. We cool on the field though."
"Well, that's just been since the playoffs started, what about before?" The same reporter said. "Rumors circled that you two were at odds during practices, wouldn't go to the same social gatherings, or anything of the sort. Mind talking on that?"
"Let's stick to questions about the sport," Andy chimed in.
"Does it have anything to do with the rumors that he's dating your little sister?" Another reporter asked.
"Shit," I whispered to myself. "Please don't spazz out, Dave, please."
"I'm not worried about who this man is fu-- screwing in his spare time," Dave sighed. "We too old. If he doing my little sister, that's their business.""
"If?" Roman said slyly as he smirked and nodded my way. "So you not bothered that I have been breaking yo' sister off since I met her?"
"DAVE IS THAT TRUE?"
"DAVID!!! DAVID IS IT TRUE HE'S BEEN SLEEPING WITH YOUR SISTER SINCE THEY MET!?"
"DAVE, ANY COMMENT?"
"ROMAN, WHERE ARE YOU GOING?"
"ROMAN!!! ROMAN!!"
"DAVE IS YOUR SISTER HERE TO SPEAK ON IT?!?!?"
I covered my mouth and gasped. He calmly walked off of the stage and up to me in the back of the room. He kissed me softly and then we turned and ran out of the room.
