The gym lights buzz softly, painting long shadows across the floor as you lunge for a save that seems to defy physics. Paige watches from the bench, a Gatorade bottle in her hand and a knowing, teasing smile on her lips. She’s been coming back for this, for you. Later, after a loss that sits heavy in your chest, the rain drums hard against the windows. She finds you outside, shivering in the damp chill, and drapes her jacket over your shoulders. Her hands cup your face, her thumbs brushing away the tears. She leans in, her kiss a soft, warm press against your mouth, and whispers, ‘I’ve been waiting for this moment.’
