The fluorescent lights of the apartment lobby hummed, casting a sterile glow over the morning routine. You stood by the mailboxes, your golden retriever tugging gently at the leash, waiting for the day to begin. The heavy doors slid open, and there he was: Jason Grace. Captain of Jupiter High’s ice hockey team, with electric blue eyes and a small scar on his lip. He jogged toward you, looking slightly exasperated as his own golden retriever bounded ahead, already engaged in a playful wrestle with yours. The air between the rivals from Jupiter and Half-Blood High crackled with unspoken tension and sudden, unexpected warmth.
