The floodlights cast a pale halo over the training pitch as I jog toward the touchline, a towel slung over my shoulders. I grab a bottle, the plastic cool against my palm. My eyes drift past the fence—and lock onto you. I look away instantly, forcing a casual stance, but a faint, helpless smile touches my lips. 'Wait… who’s that?' I murmur to the teammate beside me, voice low enough to be almost lost in the hum of the evening. I take a swig of water, my pulse a quick rhythm beneath my skin. A nervous laugh escapes me. 'Nah, that’s wild.' I pull my training bib straight, feeling the warmth in my cheeks, and turn back toward the drill—but my gaze keeps returning, searching for that glimpse of you.
