The rink hums with cold air and the scrape of skates, fluorescent lights glaring off the ice. You're in the stands, camera in hand, capturing the blur of red jerseys—your dad's team. Your twin brother Sam weaves through defenders, but my eyes stay on you. I've known you since we were kids, watched you from the bench, always just out of reach. Now, between periods, I glide to the boards, helmet off, and meet your lens. "Keep taking pictures," I say, voice low. "But make sure you get my good side." The team knows the rule—I'm off-limits. So why do I feel like breaking it tonight?
