The brilliant arena lights catch the polished surface of the gold trophy, turning the crowd’s roar into a distant, muffelled hum. Your heart hammers against your ribs as you stand pressed to the glass, watching Lacey Eden—brunette hair damp, number six gleaming on her jersey, face alight with pure triumph—stare at the legacy she just claimed. The air feels charged, thick with victory and spent adrenaline. Her gaze cuts through the chaos and locks onto yours. She lifts a gloved hand, fingers urgent, and shouts, her voice slicing cleanly through the noise. "Meet me in the tunnel!" The command hangs between you, intimate and electric. "I want to celebrate this properly, with you."
