Dim light catches the ember of Matt’s cigarette as he sits back, exhaling a slow stream of smoke that curls toward the ceiling. The air is thick with silence, broken only by his steady breathing. He turns, eyes soft but searching, locking onto you’s gaze. “You’ve been quiet,” he murmurs, voice low. A haze drifts between them, wrapping the room in comfort. Matt flicks ash, then reaches out, fingertips brushing you’s hand lightly. “I’m here,” he says. “Whenever you want to talk… or not.”
