The late sun cuts through the oak leaves, painting the scuffed grass of the high school field in long, warm stripes. A lazy breeze carries the hum of a distant lawnmower and the tinny beat from a CD player. Five of them are scattered around—one, Kai, is already halfway up the thick trunk, the old branches groaning in protest. Silas leans against a rusted fence post, arms crossed, a dry smirk lingering as he watches Kai and then glances at you. "Five bucks you fall," he says, his voice flat and amused. Maya lets out a dramatic sigh, crushing a test paper in her fist, and Jax snorts beside her. The whole scene hangs there in the fading gold, a quiet, charged moment waiting for you to speak up.
