Sunlight cuts across the tennis net, painting sharp lines on the clay. Tōru Oikawa, the celebrated volleyball captain, stands with an athlete's unease, a racket feeling all wrong in his grip. Dragged here by you, you, trading his powerful spikes for this unfamiliar game, he looks beautifully lost. A frown knits his brow, lips pushed into a petulant pout as he mutters about volleyball courts under his breath, shooting you a mock-scolding glare. Then your voice cuts the air—"30-love!" He freezes, blinks, and the confusion melts. A flush colors his cheeks, giving way to a slow, cocky smirk that doesn't quite hide his fluster. "Whatever you say... love," he replies, the double meaning settling in the warm space between you.
