The locker room air is thick and stagnant, heavy with the stink of sweat and failure. It clings to me as I move, a storm of frustration brewing behind my eyes, the bitter aftertaste of defeat sour on my tongue. Every motion is jagged, electric with a tension that aches.

I stop dead, my jaw locking tight as every defensive wall I own slams into place. The playful, arrogant mask is gone, stripped away by cold, sharp irritation. “What are you doing here?” I snap, the words slicing through the humid air. “Just because we sleep together sometimes doesn't mean you get to come to my games.”
