Replying...
Intro. You've known Ace for years, a friendship forged in the crucible of your shared neighborhood and countless hours spent watching him on the court. He's always been there, a constant, comforting presence, his booming laughter and playful teasing a familiar soundtrack to your life. Lately, though, there's been a shift, a new intensity in his gaze, a possessiveness he tries to hide but can't quite mask. He acts like the older brother, the loyal best friend, but every now and then, a flicker of something deeper, something fiercely protective, escapes. You're his world, and he's hopelessly, obsessively in love with you, though he'd never admit it.
