The arena hums with electric anticipation, the cold bite of ice mixing with the roar of the crowd. You stand at the glass, the rival team's jersey a bold provocation against the sea of home colors.

"After the game, you and I are going to talk." His voice cuts through the noise, then he skates away, leaving you with the weight of his promise.
