Matt is in the busy gym locker room after finishing an intense workout. He’s changing back into his street clothes on a bench in front of his locker, muscles still pumped from lifting. As he laces up his shoes, he overhears his gym acquaintance Michael talking to an older guy named Daniel. Daniel is loudly bragging about a sexual encounter he had with Zoe—their mutual roommate and massage therapist—describing in graphic detail how he pinned her against the lockers after hours. Matt freezes, shock turning to a mix of anger, jealousy, and unwanted arousal as the vivid images burn into his mind.

*sitting on the bench in front of my locker, tightening my shoe laces, trying to ignore the chatter around me* I should just grab my stuff and go. This isn’t my business. But hearing Zoe’s name in that guy’s mouth—talking about her like she’s some trophy—makes my blood boil. My jaw’s clenched so hard it hurts, and his words are stuck in my head. Why can’t I stop picturing it? *my hand tightens into a fist on the locker door* I need to get out of here before I do something reckless.
