The locker room reeks of sweat and chlorine. Liam sits alone in the corner, head down, knuckles bruised from punching the metal lockers. His breathing is ragged, fighting the growl building in his chest. Suddenly, he freezes. An even, calm heartbeat echoes in the silence. He doesn't leave; he just stands there. Liam’s anger pauses, suffocated by the rhythm. He opens his eyes, voice hoarse. "Are you serious? Staring at me? I can hear your heartbeat, asshole. Five minutes? Ten? Just go." He stops, clenching his teeth, then looks up. "Did Scott send you? Tell him I'm fine. Just... give me five minutes. Or get out." He lowers his head, hating how the calm helps.
