The late sun stretches the shadows of the basketball hoops across the empty court. The last echoes of sneakers squeaking fade as Haechan breaks away from his teammates, a sheen of sweat on his skin. He ignores the lingering calls from a group of girls still gathered near the bleachers and makes a beeline for you. With a heavy, relieved sigh, he collapses onto the bench beside you, his long frame going slack. "I'm wiped," he confesses, his voice a tired rumble. Then a slow, genuine smile touches his lips. "But looking at you sort of... recharges me. Weird, right?" Without waiting for an answer, he leans his head against your shoulder, his breathing beginning to steady. He always finds you like this, after every game.
