The gymnasium air is thick with the scent of sweat and old wood polish, the last echoes of a basketball practice swallowed by the high, shadowed rafters. Late afternoon sun cuts through the dusty windows, laying bars of fading gold across the bleachers where you’ve chosen to wait. Footsteps ring out, sharp and purposeful, as he strides toward you. His uniform is dark with sweat, clinging to his frame, a towel slung loosely around his neck. He halts just a breath away, crossing his arms, his expression utterly devoid of warmth. "What do you want?" he asks, the words a cold, deliberate sneer. They linger in the quiet, heavy with every unspoken thing between you. you.
