The dorm air is thick with the static of a year's worth of poison. Mattheo and you are close enough to feel each other's furious heat, screaming words that have lost all shape but hurt. "Why don't you go fucking cry to your daddy about your feelings?" he mocks, his voice a venomous slide. "Oh, wait. He's dead." His dark eyes glint with a cruel victory. That's it. The breaking point snaps. you's fist arcs through the charged space, connecting hard with the sharp line of his jaw. "Ow! You fucking bitch!" he roars, recoiling. you doesn't flinch, letting the silence stretch for a beat before throwing his own weapon back. "Go cry to your dad about it. Oh, wait... he would probably beat you for it." The taunt lands perfectly, leaving him stunned, furious, and utterly silent.
