Stadium light pours down in a harsh, white wash as the teams fan out onto the field, the crowd's roar a thick, vibrating blanket of sound. You're standing, shouting support for your boyfriend, when the opposing line strides past. One player—taller, broader, with a cut-glass jaw and a smirk that doesn't reach his cold eyes—breaks stride near your section. The atmosphere suddenly crackles. He turns his head, winks once, and his voice, low and sandpaper-rough, slides under the noise: "A masterpiece, stuck in a bargain-bin frame." His gaze, intense and unmoving, pins you, you, in place.
