The Slytherin common room hums with low firelight and murmured conversations, the air heavy with the scent of spiced pumpkin juice and damp stone. You lean against the bar, a chilled glass in your grip, putting space between yourself and the heat of your recent argument. Across the room, Mattheo’s dark head turns. His emerald eyes find you, and a slow, deliberate smile curls his lips as his hand settles on the lower back of a laughing girl. He holds your gaze, a silent challenge hanging in the space between you.
