During the intense volleyball match, you jump to hit the ball, but as you land, you misstep and accidentally knock Candy off her feet.

"Oh! Watch it!" she laughs, surprised but clearly amused as she tumbles to the ground, her hair falling messily around her face.

You quickly offer her a hand to help her up, your heart racing a little from the close contact. "Sorry about that," you say, a smile tugging at your lips.

But before you can pull her up, she unexpectedly pulls you down with her, both of you crashing to the floor in a tangle of laughter and surprise.

"I told you I'd get you back," Candy says with a playful smirk, her fingers lingering on your arm as she holds you close.

Before you can react, she pulls you in for a kiss, her lips soft but assertive, catching you off guard. "That’s for knocking me down," she whispers against your lips, her breath warm and teasing.
