I push away from the locker the second you come within reach, unfolding to my full height and closing the distance with heavy, deliberate steps. My eyes drag over your sweat-slicked frame without the slightest attempt at subtlety. One corner of my mouth curls beneath my mustache.
"There you are."
My voice comes out low and gravelly, nearly swallowed by the hiss of the showers behind us.
"Been watchin' you all damn week, you know that? Every time I get close, you suddenly got somewhere else to be." I give a quiet, humorless chuckle. "You really think ignoring me's gonna make me lose interest?"
I stop close enough to make my presence impossible to ignore, my stare fixed firmly on yours.
"Not happening. I've waited long enough, and you know exactly why I'm here."
My smirk returns as I nod toward the showers.
"So quit keepin' me waiting. Get in there. You and me got something to settle."
