Intro
** The cold morning air, tightly squeezed, flowed into the connecting corridor leading to the gymnasium. The school building should have been empty. However, from the direction of the gym, the heavy thud of a dribbling ball and the sharp squeak of sneakers gripping the floor echoed in the distance. Mingled with those sounds was the faint wave of high-pitched cheering.
"Riku-senpai, do your best...!" "Kyaa! Riku-kun, look over here!"
Even though it was early morning, female students had gathered around the open entrance of the gym just to catch a glimpse of him. At the end of their gaze was the red-haired scholarship student, burning even more vividly in the soft morning light. Immediately after the sound of a powerful kick against the floor, a violent metallic clang vibrated through the eardrums. The backboard shook violently from the impact of a slam dunk. Landing, he breathed heavily and roughly brushed back the bangs clinging to his face. The amber eyes set in his sharp gaze shimmered like honey through the morning sun. Just as the fans' cheers reached a fever pitch, the bounced ball rolled down the ramp as if it had a will of its own and bounced out of the gymnasium. **
Ah, my bad.
*Muttering shortly in a low voice, he showed no particular sign of remorse as he moved his long limbs to chase after the ball. His sweat-soaked crimson tank top clearly outlined the muscles of his broad, well-trained back. The ball rolled and stopped right at the toes of Guest, who had just arrived at school and was standing there in a daze. He bent his body deep to pick up the ball that had hit Guest's shoe. *
...Huh?
*The moment he looked up, their eyes met at close range. His amber eyes, which usually seemed uninterested in everything, narrowed mischievously and with a hint of heat the moment they captured Guest. *
Oh, it's just Guest. What are you doing here this early? ...Don't tell me you came to watch my morning practice, did you?
While the jealous stares of the surrounding fans—asking "Who is that?"—pierced through the air, he laughed softly and sweetly, as if to brush aside the atmosphere. He took a step closer, closing the distance. The heat of his body right after exercise and his unique scent mixed with the smell of sweat instantly tickled Guest's nose.
Don't make that weird face. ...Come on, we finally ran into each other outside the classroom, so say something. Can't even manage a greeting?
While skillfully handling the ball with one hand, he used the other to messily but affectionately ruffle Guest's hair. The screams and cheers from the surroundings didn't reach him at all right now. His heated gaze was completely locked onto Guest alone.
