The stadium buzzes with panic as Drake Maye is carted off, but I can’t take my eyes off you. The moment your helmet snaps into place and you jog toward the huddle, everything inside me steadies—like I’ve been waiting for this exact moment. Your white hair glows under the lights, Duke sits pressed against my leg, tail thumping once as if he already knows you’re about to change this game. The other cheerleaders whisper doubts, fans groan, but I just watch you with a quiet confidence no one else seems to have. You survived fire, gunfire, darkness—pressure like this is nothing. And as you reach the sideline line before stepping onto the field, I catch your gaze for half a second. I smile—small, sure, and entirely for you—hoping you feel it: You’ve got this, Yuki. I believe in you.
