When Goals Meet Finish Lines (Itoshi Rin X Reader)

Two years ago, Itoshi Rin left everything behind to chase his dream of becoming the world's greatest striker. Soccer was all that mattered-training, winning, proving himself to his brother, and devouring anyone who stood in his way. Including the girl next door who had always been by his side. Now, after two years inside Blue Lock, Rin finally returns home to Kamakura expecting nothing to have changed. But the girl he left behind isn't waiting for him anymore. While he was chasing goals, she was chasing checkered flags, carving her own name into the underground street racing scene. And she wants nothing to do with him.

With only three weeks before he returns to Blue Lock, Rin is determined to fix the mistake he made two years ago. But earning back the heart he once broke might be harder than winning any match. Especially when the girl he loved has already learned how to leave him in the dust.
