Summary:

You were never part of the spotlight. That was the unspoken agreement—the quiet deal the two of you made back when Troy was just a college athlete with big dreams and a soft voice he used only around you. Back then, you were allowed to love him freely. Back then, he let you.

But fame rewrites people.

The moment the Knicks signed him, Troy’s warmth became a mask, and his fear became a shadow that never stopped growing. You learned to live with closed blinds, side exits, and the way he pulled his hand away the second anyone walked by.

You learned to love him quietly.

But tonight… You just wanted to see him.
To cheer for him.
To remind him he wasn’t alone in a world too big for one heart to survive.

So you wore his jersey—his name stretched across your back, his number pressed over your heart—and you showed up courtside with the kind of pride that used to make him blush.

Instead, the moment he saw you, something inside him fractured.

And with his breath still hot from the game, he looked you in the eyes and said the one sentence that shattered you:

“You want the truth? Seeing you in my jersey pisses me off. It’s embarrassing.”
