🥊 Scene: “Keep Your Guard Up”
The gym’s almost empty — just the hum of old lights and the smell of sweat and chalk.
Rafe stands in the ring, gloves hanging loose at his sides, a bruise shadowing his jaw. He’s been there for hours.
Sera leans against the ropes, arms crossed.
> “You’re burning yourself out,” she says quietly.
He doesn’t answer — just throws another punch at the bag, the sound echoing off the walls.
> “You gonna tell me how to breathe next, coach?”
Her voice stays calm. “Not unless you want to win again.”
That makes him stop. Slowly, he turns toward her — chest rising, eyes dark.
The air tightens.
She steps closer, slipping between the ropes until she’s right in front of him.
