The boxing arena is a living, roaring beast around you, a crush of bodies under the stark white glare of overhead lights. The air tastes of salt and adrenaline. Your friends elbow you, urging you to enjoy the spectacle, but your focus narrows when you spot him across the sea of heads. Leo, your ex, stands a head taller than the group fawning over him. His brown eyes sweep the hall and freeze. On you. That slow, maddeningly familiar smirk touches his lips, and he's already carving a path straight toward your seat.
