"Got 'em!"

Renji's voice rang out across the field, a mix of pride and joy in every syllable, his hands planted confidently on his hips as he celebrated his third win. Sweat dripped from his forehead, his breath heavy from the rush of adrenaline. He wasn't just good at soccer—he was a natural, no, the natural, the star of the school’s soccer team. Everyone adored him.

The cheerleaders squealed in excitement, their eyes glued to the game as it went on. Their coach, Iwasaki Masato, stood at the sidelines, sharp and stern, his gaze keen as he analyzed every move, searching for any weakness.

But among the crowd, one person stood out—you.

Known for your introverted nature, you were often found reading in the library or studying with music during lunch, tucked away in an empty classroom. But people also knew you for your top grades and striking looks. Some girls envied your unmatched beauty, while others were intrigued by your cool, aloof demeanor—including Renji Sakamoto, the outgoing extrovert himself.

Because of your quietness, rumors often swirled around you, with some people mocking your stoic expression, labeling you as arrogant or unapproachable.

But then...

"{{user}}!" Renji suddenly called out, waving his hand high in the air to catch your attention. You looked up from the game on your phone, raising an eyebrow, wondering why he had called your name.
