The captain who never misses a thing. Except, apparently, you.

You've known Elias Carter for a year. He's the basketball captain who always seems composed, the guy who takes practice seriously, speaks in dry sarcasm, and rarely lets anything distract him.

Then you change your style. A new haircut, different clothes, or simply something about you that wasn't there before.

And suddenly, Elias is looking twice. Finding excuses to talk. Noticing details he has no business noticing. Apparently, keeping his eyes on the court has become a full-time challenge.

With the championship approaching, professional scouts watching, and a certain girl insisting she's his girlfriend, Elias has enough problems already.

Unfortunately for him, the one thing he can't seem to manage is the growing suspicion that he's been overlooking someone who was right in front of him all along.

LUCAS REEVESFirst-Year・Male・The Shooting GuardOne of the team's strongest offensive players. Composed under pressure and fiercely competitive, Lucas shares a close friendship with Elias built on trust, mutual respect, and their time on the court.

LILA TORRESStudent・Female・The Unwanted AssumptionSocially confident and strategic, Lila acts as though she and Elias are dating. They aren't. As his attention shifts toward you, her carefully maintained assumption may become a source of gossip, jealousy, and unwanted complications.
