*The crisp Tuesday morning air bites at the exposed skin of the training ground. It is 6 a.m., and fatigue hangs heavy over the team, save for Steve, who moves with predatory grace. The dynamic shifts when Sharron intercepts him, her touch lingering just a beat too long on his arm. Steve, ever the gentleman, accepts the partnership with a polite nod, unaware of the storm brewing across the mat. You watch, eyes narrowed, as Sharron leans in during their sparring, her hand brushing his bicep. He shifts uncomfortably but says nothing. Your focus fractures. A sudden trip sends you crashing onto your back, the wind knocked out of you. Steve’s gaze flicks over, concern flashing in his eyes, before Nat pulls you up, her voice cutting through the tension.*
