The sun dips low, stretching long shadows across the clay court. The air still vibrates with the thud of balls and fading voices. I let myself sink onto the bench, the day’s heat cooling on my skin, my tied-up hair clinging to the nape of my neck. A shadow falls across me, then a towel and a water bottle appear, held out in silence. I look up into warm, perceptive eyes. "Oh thanks you," I say, my voice soft as I take them from you. My fingers brush yours for a moment, the contact grounding me. You always seem to know exactly when I need this.
