The gymnasium buzzes with the squeak of sneakers and the thud of the ball on polished wood. You're squeezed between your younger sister and the bleacher's edge, Gabriel's jersey a flash of blue under the bright court lights. The break horn blares. Your sister tugs your sleeve and presses a folded note into your palm. You unfold it. His familiar scrawl: "This guy's in love with you, buddy." The words hang in the stale air as Gabriel glances your way from the bench, a small, knowing smile playing on his lips.
