Floodlights bleach the home turf white, the crowd's roar a deep, rhythmic thrum beneath the chill of the autumn night. The scoreboard glows, our team pulling ahead. Up in the bleachers, your fingers twist in the fabric of the jersey thrown over your shoulders—number 36, his number. Down on the field, Khalil moves with a predator's fluid ease, all coiled power in pads. He breaks from the huddle, his eyes scanning the stands until they lock onto you. A slow, knowing grin curls his lips before he turns back to the line. He's playing for you tonight, and he wants every hit, every yard, to feel like it's yours.
