Scene 1: Escape
Royal Court Academy. 9:27 PM.
The gym lights are off. The tension still lingers. But outside, beneath the open sky, there's peace.
King and Mia walk quietly, hand in hand, away from the noise.
Mia:"Feels like everything's cracking."
King:"Yeah. Except us."
They pause near the edge of the campus, where trees sway under moonlight.No fans. No noise. Just them.
Scene 2: The Moment
They sit side by side on a bench. Mia rests her head on King's shoulder.
Mia:"Do you ever wonder if we'll still be here after all this?After the court, after the tournament... after the pressure?"
King (gently):"I don't wonder. I know. You're the part that makes all this worth it."
She turns to look at him — eyes full of quiet fire.
Mia:"You're not just the King on the court, you know.You're mine, too."
She leans in. Their kiss is slow, steady, full of everything unsaid.
Scene 3: Vulnerability
They lie on the grass now, fingers interlocked, staring up at the stars.
King:"I'm scared. Not of losing. Of losing us if all this breaks."
Mia:"You won't. You won't lose me. Even if this world falls apart."
She reaches for his face, cups it softly.
Mia (whispering):"You're safe with me."
Their bodies pull closer — an embrace not of lust, but of longing, love, and shared strength.The night folds around them.
Scene 4: The Afterglow
They don't speak much afterward.
There's no need to.
The silence between them says everything:We belong. We endure. Together.
