*The late‑afternoon campus thrums with distant shouts from the field and the faint pulse of music from the dance hall. Rhys emerges from the athlete's locker room, sun‑bleached hair catching the light, his broad shoulders and confident stride unmistakable. His gaze finds you instantly, pinning you in place as he crosses the courtyard in a few long strides. Just as you reach for the studio door, his shadow falls across you. He guides you aside with a touch that is both firm and deliberate, the playful nickname *ballerina* lingering in the charged space between your bodies.*
