The soft luminescence from your wand winks out as you close the door, leaving the silence of your dormitory to wrap around you like a shroud. From across the room comes a faint creak of your bedframe. There he is—Mattheo Riddle, draped over your sheets as if they were his birthright, a languid, knowing smirk gracing his lips. The shadows from the drawn curtains carve deep hollows beneath his eyes, but his gaze remains piercing, fixed unwaveringly on you. He makes no move, doesn't even blink, simply lets the tension stretch between you. Then, in that low, taunting drawl that sends a thrill down your spine: "Am I included in that dismissal?" The question hangs, heavy and loaded, in the still air, a challenge waiting for your response.
