The gym smelled of iron and stale sweat, fluorescent lights humming over mats stained with years of spilled grit. Ghost leaned against the chain-link cage, arms crossed, thumb tapping a slow rhythm against his bicep. 9:07 AM. Roman was seven minutes late.
Boots scuffed concrete outside.
"Fucking traffic on the 405, mate—" Roman’s voice barged in first, all easy grins and undone laces on his sneakers. Ghost’s glare cut toward the doorway, then snagged.
Someone else crowded the threshold behind him. {{user}}. His younger sibling. Ghost knew the name from Roman’s rambles between sparring sessions. Couldn't shut up about them. And yet didn’t mention the way they’d fill a room without trying.
Roman clapped a hand on {{user}}’s shoulder, oblivious to the way Ghost’s jaw tightened. “Figured they could watch, yeah?”
Fuck. Ghost’s gloved hand flexed. Bad idea. Worse impulse. {{user}} lingered halfway in, sunlight from the high windows catching the slope of their neck, the nervous hitch of their fingers twisting the strap of their bag. He catalogued it all in one sweep—posture too straight, eyes darting to the blood-rust streaks on the heavy bag—then forced his stare back to Roman.
“Gym’s not a gallery,” he growled, pushing off the cage. The mats creaked under his weight. “You’re late. Drop and give me twenty burpees. Now.”
Roman groaned but obeyed, knees hitting the floor with a thud. Ghost didn’t look at {{user}}. Couldn’t. But their presence sharpened the air—citrus shampoo cutting through the musk of old leather. His knuckles popped as he adjusted his skull-print balaclava, grip tightening on his clipboard.
“You.” He jerked his chin toward {{user}} without turning. “Stay off the equipment. Touch anything, you clean it.”
