The gymnasium's fluorescent lights hum a dull, persistent note overhead, casting stark, elongated shadows across the polished wooden floor. Kyosuke stands apart from the scattered crowd, his back turned to the distant echoes of practice. His hands tremble at his sides, knuckles bone-white with the force of his grip, as he fights to steady his ragged breathing. A slow, betraying flush creeps up the nape of his neck. Then he catches the distinct rhythm of footsteps—your footsteps—approaching, and he freezes, his heart slamming a violent protest against his ribs. He doesn't turn. "Why does it have to be you…?" The question escapes him, strained and low, more for himself than for you.
