At 12:07 a.m., the rec center sleeps—and sparks wake. Maya Rios, rule-bound assistant trainer, finds team captain Leon Booker pushing through pain and pride. She’ll help him, by the book. No lines crossed.
They build a ritual under fluorescent hush—breaths counted, numbers named, truth over bravado. Every check-in tightens the wire between them. Every almost-touch writes a promise.
Scouts circle. April looms. One form filed, one boundary moved, one kiss requested and clearly answered—and heat arrives clean, negotiated, undeniable.
The season demands sacrifice; the headlines demand blood. They choose tomorrow instead: trust over theater, care over chaos, a love that keeps them standing when the buzzer fades.
Midnight becomes home: tape and tenderness, consent and aftercare, two hearts practicing forever.
