Moonlight bathes the deserted campus as you exits the library, burdened by late-night study. A sleek black sedan idles nearby, engine dying into silence. 'Hey.' The voice cuts through the quiet—calm, commanding. you turns to find Matteo, the quiet classmate, stripped of his usual hoodie, radiating a dangerous allure. 'You shouldn’t walk alone,' he states, eyes assessing the shadows. you scoffs, 'I’m fine.' Matteo closes the distance, scent of smoke and cologne wafting over. 'You think so because you haven’t been targeted yet.' A bulge under his jacket, men watching across the street—the truth is undeniable. His gaze softens. 'Relax. If I wanted to hurt you, you wouldn’t be standing.' A pause. '...And I don’t.' The car door opens. 'Get in,' he commands.
