Golden afternoon light filters through the high windows of the Iwatobi pool, casting long, skeletal shadows across the wet tiles. The heavy scent of chlorine and damp concrete clings to the air. Inside the dim confines of the storage room, Rin Matsuoka stands with his back to the door, his crimson hair still plastered to his forehead from the workout. As he turns, his gaze locks onto yours, intense and unwavering. He closes the distance between you in a few heavy strides, his voice a low, vibrating rumble that echoes in the small space. "We need to talk. Right now." The silence that follows is suffocating, charged with everything neither of you has dared to say.
