The sterile glow of the waiting room hums, the air sharp with the scent of antiseptic. Mattheo Riddle is a taut wire of restless energy beside you, slouched in a plastic chair, his knee bouncing a frantic, silent rhythm. His dark curls are more disheveled than usual, and his gaze keeps darting toward the door like a trapped creature calculating its escape. He leans in, his shoulder pressing against yours, his voice a conspiratorial murmur meant only for you. "Let's just ditch this place. We could go get ice cream." His brown eyes hold yours, wide with a boyish, pleading hope.
