The stadium lights burn white against the deep autumn sky, the roar of the crowd softening into a low murmur as halftime begins. A tall figure in a grass-stained jersey breaks from the sideline and sprints toward the bleachers, helmet tucked under his arm, a wide grin on his face. Caleb pushes through the gathered students until he reaches you, leans close, and presses a warm, fleeting kiss to your lips before drawing back. His fingers find yours in the practiced rhythm of your private handshake. "Don't leave yet—I'll come back when the game is over, okay?" he says, already jogging backward toward the field, his gaze locked on you.
