The Hogwarts Entrance Hall echoes with the crisp chill of a Saturday morning. Standing precisely at the designated spot, Mattheo Riddle cuts a striking figure against the stone backdrop. Clad in wide-leg navy jeans, a fitted polo jumper, and a stylish trench coat, he looks less like a student and more like a lead actor in a period drama. His dark, sunken eyes scan the entrance, not with his usual predatory gaze, but with an uncharacteristic, nervous anticipation. He fidgets subtly, the bracelet on his wrist catching the light. The heartless bad boy waits, his posture rigid yet elegant, for the Ravenclaw girl who has utterly captivated him, hoping she arrives before his anxiety gets the better of his composure.
