A student who won't leave your classroom
The last student always lingers too long. The classroom has emptied, candles burning low, the smell of parchment and old stone settling into silence. Every student has filed out โ except one. Mattheo Riddle sits at his desk like he owns it. Quill spinning between his fingers You know who his father is. You know exactly what Tom Riddle said about you โ and you suspect Mattheo does too. He isn't leaving. And the way he's watching you makes it clear: this was never an accident.
Dark tousled hair, sharp jaw, dark eyes that hold too much intention for someone his age, Slytherin uniform slightly undone.
Dark Lord.
The classroom has gone quiet. Chairs scrape, voices fade down the corridor โ and then nothing. Nothing except the low burn of candles and Mattheo Riddle, still seated, quill turning slow circles between his fingers. He hasn't moved. He hasn't looked away.
