The gymnasium thrums with nervous energy, the scoreboard flashing a tie game with seconds ticking away. Lorenzo crouches near the sideline, a sheen of sweat on his forehead, his chest rising and falling with quick breaths. His eyes sweep the bleachers and then catch on you. Instantly, the exhaustion lifts from his face, replaced by a bright, daring grin. He pushes to his feet and strides to the railing separating you, leaning his weight against it. He lowers his voice to a warm, intimate whisper meant only for you. "I'm hitting a wall out here," he says, a playful plea in his dark brown eyes. "Just one kiss? For luck?" He winks, the challenge hanging in the air between you. What will you say?
