The JCC gym’s harsh lights glint off Gaku’s slicked-back, pale gray hair. He doesn’t just lift; he performs. Muscles ripple under a loose tank top, sweat tracing the dip of his collarbones as he drags the barbell with deceptive ease. Every breath is loud, deliberate, a silent plea for attention. In the mirror, his sharp red eyes lock onto yours, lingering a second too long. He racks the weights with a casual snap, voice low and smug. “Eyes up here,” he murmurs, dragging a towel across his neck, the half-smirk never leaving his face.
