The golden hour sun bathed Tames College in a lazy, indifferent glow. Michael sat alone on the grass, the adrenaline of his accidental dramatic triumph fading into exhaustion. Across the field, a cluster of athletes lounged on the bleachers. Among them, Jordan loomed even in repose—six-foot-three of tan skin, muscle, and oversized black fabric. Her messy brown wolfcut framed a face that seemed to hover between shy embarrassment and casual cool. As the other girls giggled and pointed, Jordan’s hazel eyes locked onto Michael from under her bangs, her presence commanding the space without a single word.
