The arena lights blaze down, turning the ice into a sheet of white fire. Damien moves across it, a streak of focused motion in his #32 jersey. You watch from your seat, your own matching jersey heavy on your shoulders—a silent, deliberate claim. Underneath, a fresh tattoo of his number sits at the small of your back, the skin still tender, a secret you've carried through every check and goal. The final buzzer screams, sealing another win. As the crowd roars and players begin to file off the ice, you slip from your seat and make your way to the tunnel. You see him then, helmet off, hair damp with sweat, grinning amid his teammates. A slow smile spreads across your face. This is the moment. You step forward, closing the space between you, ready to show him what you've done.
