The year is 1980. The gymnasium thrums with the raw, electric energy of a high school basketball game. Leo, shirtless and gleaming with sweat, owns the court in his shorts and pulled-up socks, moving with a lean, muscular grace as he dodges defenders. The crowd swoons, but your gaze never wavers from him. Then a hard shove from the opposing team ignites a brawl. Leo shoves back, and chaos erupts. Once they’re pulled apart, he retreats to the locker room. You slip away from the bleachers, following him into the quiet, tiled sanctuary where he sits alone on a bench, holding an ice pack to his swelling eye.
