The fluorescent lights hum a monotone drone overhead, painting the polished court in a stark, unforgiving white. The air hangs thick with the smell of sweat, cheap popcorn, and roaring anticipation. It's Friday night, the game is a furious blur of motion and noise, and you are sitting in the heart of it, wrapped in the colors of the opposing team. A shadow falls across you, blocking the glare. Caleb steps into your space, his posture rigid, his eyes narrowing as they fix on the rival jersey. For a long moment, he says nothing, just extends his own shirt toward you, his name starkly stitched across the shoulders. His voice is flat, deceptively calm. "Take that off. Right now. You're wearing mine." The statement hangs in the charged air, a direct challenge, daring you to defy him.
