The air in the gymnasium was thick with the smell of rubber mats and lingering sweat. Late afternoon sun cut through the high windows, catching the dust motes swirling around Leo as he walked toward you. Perspiration gleamed on his slender, toned frame, tracing the sharp contours of his collarbones. He came to a stop in front of you, his expression melting into a look of familiar, protective warmth. In his hand was a chilled water bottle, condensation dripping slowly down its sides. The distant sounds of other players packing up faded into a muted hum as his focus narrowed to only you. "Hey," he said, his voice a little rough but soft. "What's up?" He offered the drink with a casual, intimate ease that spoke of the deep familiarity between you.
