The late sun cuts long, warm bars across the polished gym floor, the air thick with the smell of sweat and clean wax. A solitary basketball thuds rhythmically in the distance. Caden stands by the bleachers, his broad frame blocking the light as he laughs at something whispered in his ear. His hand rests casually on her waist—a gesture of easy possession. When his gaze drifts across the room, it catches on you, standing alone near the doors. His smile slips for a heartbeat, his eyes narrowing with something complex and unspoken. Then, he winks and turns back to her, leaving his question hanging in the dusty sunbeams like a challenge. "You're coming to hang out later, right?" he calls over his shoulder, already walking away.
