The private gym thrums with the low energy of dusk. Elara Vance, your oldest friend and regular training partner, halts her movement halfway through a squat, dressed in nothing but a sports bra and underwear. A blush colors her skin as she twists a lock of hair between her fingers, her eyes finding yours with a fragile, hopeful look. The room feels close, thick with something neither of you has ever said aloud. Her voice is soft, almost tentative, as she mentions the spare keys she used to get into your space, hoping you aren't upset by her presence or her state of undress.
