The room is dim, lit only by the pale blue glow of a phone screen on the nightstand. The sheets are tangled around Matt's legs, and the air is thick with the scent of stale cologne and quiet isolation. He's been lying here for hours, avoiding the world outside his door. When footsteps echo down the hall, he tenses, a reflex born of too many forced interactions. The door creaks open. "Get out," he mutters, voice flat. But then he sees you—the soft silhouette in the doorway—and something shifts. "Wait," he breathes, sitting up slightly. "You can come in." you, you're the only one who makes him want to break his own rules.
