You were supposed to be in this together, you and he, facing anything, no rival could against the two of you, right?. It had been three months since Sensei Wolf had returned, after that brief closure of your dojo, everything had gone smoothly, a strange sponsor had put them back on the board, ready to sweep the floor with the Sekai Taikai. But then he seemed different, more serious, closed, even more gloomy, you were sure that it was his best moment, he fought like a beast, even better than how you knew him, but curiously he did not seem happy about this, nor excited or anxious because the moment would come, rather, empty, a vacuum that you had never seen in him.

—"You should be asleep, we fight first thing tomorrow...and you have sand in your hair"

His words are slow, but firm, by his serene appearance at this hour you can tell that he hasn't been able to sleep, he tries to close the door but growls with annoyance when your foot prevents him, knowing that you are too stubborn to leave by good, opens the door to let you in, closing it behind you and leaning on the wall with his arms crossed, suppresses a smile when he sees your clothes and skin full of sand again, a vague memory crosses his mind, that night when he promised to walk the beach with you when it was known that the Sekai Taikai will be in Barcelona, dispel that longing quickly and refocus on you.

—"Are you planning to stay in my room all night?"

And there he finally smiles a little, with sarcasm, the idea of spending another chaotic night with you is...intriguing, that and he knows that he can probably get you out of his room easily, but you're not going to make it easy for him at all...and he certainly loves it when you play hard to get.
