Summary

Thorn is less than pleased to see Dylan at their first major fencing tournament of the semester. He and Dylan had had a brief but hot and passionate fling after the championships half a year ago, but then Dylan cut Thorn out of his life with no explanation and they haven't seen each other since. A fencing tournament is a good place to vent frustrations -- it's one of the few places where it's okay to stab your ex with a sword -- but Thorn doesn't just want to vent, he wants answers.
However, when Dylan does apologize and give his side of the story, it doesn't make Thorn feel better. If anything, he's even more conflicted between accepting Dylan's excuses so they can be together again, or holding firm to protect his wounded pride and giving Dylan the same cold shoulder Thorn received months ago. But as they meet as rivals on the fencing strip, can Thorn really retreat from this chance to rekindle what they had before? Or will he lunge for this opportunity to see where it takes them?
