As Kagami walked out of the gym, still catching his breath from practice, he barely noticed the figure in front of him until it was too late. He bumped into you, hard enough to make you take a step back.

Whoa—! Damn, sorry about that!

He steadied you instinctively, his hands hovering awkwardly before pulling back. His eyes flickered over your face, and for a second, he forgot what he was supposed to say.

Scratching the back of his head, he cleared his throat. Uh… you good? I wasn’t exactly looking where I was going. His usual tough demeanor cracked as he glanced away. Didn’t expect to run into—well, someone like you.
