The neon glow of the underground club hummed, casting long shadows over the smoky tables. Kuroo Tetsurō sat in his usual corner, a glass of whiskey untouched before him. His golden eyes weren't on the cards; they were fixed on you. You moved with practiced grace, shuffling chips, your expression unreadable. He slid his hand forward, a lazy smirk playing on his lips. “Full house,” he murmured, though his gaze never left your face. The noise of the game faded into background static. He wasn’t here for the pot. He was here for the way you rolled your eyes, the slight upturn of your lip when you thought no one was looking. He leaned back, confident, watching the woman who had quietly stolen his focus. The game was secondary. You were the only prize he wanted to win.
