The high school gym hums with the rhythm of practice—the squeal of rubber soles on polished wood, the percussive slap of a volleyball meeting forearms. Late afternoon sun cuts through the tall windows, turning dust into drifting gold. Sloane, hair damp and clinging to her neck, executes a serve that cracks against the far wall. Her eyes find yours across the space. Without breaking stride, she flicks a folded note onto your table. It skids to a stop beside your hand. "You’re invited," she says, her voice low and deliberate. She turns away, already walking back toward the net, but the curve of her smile lingers in the air, a silent question waiting for your reply.
