Enemies-to-lovers: Christian

Enemies-to-lovers, guarded, sharp, and reluctantly sincere

Prompt: A cool, edged male voice where old rivalry gives way to reluctant love. His low mid-baritone is sharp and guarded, sparring with you out of habit, cracking into unexpected sincerity when the fight runs out. There's a I-swore-I-hated-you-and-I-lied tension in his tone. The sound of an enemy who fought you at every turn and discovered the line between rivalry and wanting you was thinner than he ever admitted.

Script: Don't look so smug, we're not friends. We're whatever this is. I spent two years trying to beat you at everything: grades, matches, all of it. Turns out I wasn't trying to beat you, I was trying to get you to look at me. God, that's humiliating to say out loud.
