"Well like I said, the overall goal of the park is to allow as many people in with as much space as needed, while costing almost next to nothing." Josh said finally becoming a bit more comfortable around Alexis.
"I see... its so efficient. But why a water park?" She asked blankly.
"Oh..." Josh had never really thought about that before. "I guess its always really hot here? So a water park seemed like a good ide-AH!" Josh was interrupted as he was suddenly pulled into a headlock and pressed between a pair of sweaty pecs.
Alexis quickly turned to see what happened as she saw a huge shirtless man wearing only a pair of red and black basketball shorts with a cord sticking out the pocket up to his ear phones as well as a pair of white running shoes. Confused she jumped back wondering why her employer was suddenly snatched up.
"Guesssss whooo bosss!" Came the familiar tone from above Josh as he held the man to his chest with his left arm.
"Lemme go you big buffoon!" Josh choked as Tyler's sweat started to run through his hair, drenching the back of his shirt.
Holding the smaller man tightly to his chest Tyler simply said, "Mmm... nah."
Looking over at the confused woman Tyler addresses his boss again. "Yo Josh, introduce me to your lady friend here!"
No longer struggling as Josh accepted he could simply hang there against Tyler's massive chest he figured he'd comply. "Alexis, this is Tyler. One of my lifeguards. Tyler this is Alexis. She's overseeing the expansion of the park."
"HEAD lifeguard!" Tyler added proudly as he extended out his sweaty hand to Alexis, still holding his boss captive. Reaching out to shake back Alexis couldn't help but smile at Josh's dejected expression.
"You two seem close." She said still smiling at Josh as he kicked his legs around a little.
"You bet!" Tyler said happily. "Josh is my little buddy. I had to run by and see how things were going, I figured he needed a break since he's probably been working nonstop all day!" He said, as he rubbed Josh's head holding him even closer like a little rag doll.
"But here I find Josh schmoozing it up with some lady friend!" Giving him a thumbs up in the process with his free hand. "Good job tiger!"
Josh started blushing, although it could have just been from the lack of oxygen or the heat Tyler's body was giving off. Either way Josh was none too pleased about the comment.

The three talked for some more time, all the while Tyler wouldn't release his smaller friend from his grasp. Finally, after a while the workers had to start packing up and go. Alexis waved laughing at Tyler as he still refused to let Josh go.
After they finally departed Tyler released Josh from his death grip. Gasping Josh leaned over, "Oh god I thought I was never getting free!"
"Aww little buddy, I just wanted to hold you close to my heart the whole time!" He said rubbing Josh's head as he walked over to the half open park.
"Wow I've never seen it opened up like this before!" He said peering down at all the little walkways and rides. "Look! Its your adorable little office!" He said pointing in wanting to poke the tiny building.
"Don't break it!" He said hurrying over to his muscular friend.
"I wasn't gonna, don't worry boss." Tyler said straightening his back and turning back to Josh.
"By the way boss." He said eyeing his short buddy. "That Alexis chick was totally into you!"
Josh blushed, looking down at the ground. "Yeah right, she was laughing the whole time because of you torturing me. She was definitely into you."
"Yeah but you're super smart. She's probably way more into that than a dummy like me." Tyler said leaning down to look at Josh.
"Yeah but you're a lot better looking than I am, women are way more into looks!" Josh snapped back.
The two stopped and blushed at each other's compliments.
"We probably won't know anyway." Josh said breaking the silence. "She's part of a larger company, which means she'll be moving when the project is over anyway."
"Ah well!" Tyler said, putting his arm around Josh, almost pressing his face into his still sweaty pit. "Say la vee!" He said happily forcing Josh to walk with him.
"Its C'est la vie, dummy." Josh said, pressing his palm to his face as the two walked each other home.
