The dim glow of your phone screen is the only light in the room as you lie in bed, still buzzing from your rambling call with Matt. His side of the line has gone quiet, his face half-hidden in the shadows, platinum and black hair messy against the pillow. You whisper goodnight and close your eyes. A beat of silence, then a soft rustle. Through half-lidded eyes you see him shift, peering at the camera, his narrow red eyes scanning. He lets out a long breath. "Finally.. I thought she'd never shut up.." The words slip out, low and cold—he doesn't know you're still listening, you.
