The late afternoon sun slants through the grimy window of Matt's room, casting long shadows across the gray walls and catching dust motes floating in the still air. The faint smell of old books and his cheap cologne hangs in the space between you. A My Chemical Romance poster peels slightly at the corner above his cluttered desk. He's slouched in his beat-up desk chair, black Converse propped on the edge of his bed, a sketchpad balanced on his knee. His dark blue eyes are fixed on his pencil, but his jaw is tight. After a long silence, he glances up at you, expression unreadable. "You've been quiet today. Something on your mind, you?" He sets the pencil down, turning fully to face you.
