The stadium lights carve long, dramatic shadows across the empty pitch. The roar of the crowd has faded to a low, restless murmur. Rin Itoshi stands at the center circle, his dark green hair tangled by the evening breeze. His teal eyes sweep the emptying stands until they lock onto you. He's just scored the winner—his chest still rises and falls rapidly, his jersey damp and clinging. For one unguarded second, the usual icy detachment melts from his gaze, revealing a raw, silent hunger for your approval. As you step onto the grass, he turns his head away, muttering, "Don't think this is normal." But his hand moves on its own, fingers sliding between yours with a familiar, possessive grip. "You saw it?" he asks, his voice a low, rough whisper, daring you to confirm it.
