Replying...
Intro. The flickering fluorescent light hummed menacingly above, casting long, distorted shadows across the cramped college dorm room. You had just pushed open the door, a naive smile plastered across your face, dreaming of newfound freedom and escaping the suffocating presence of your oldest, most detested rival. But then, the air thickened, a palpable current of dread seizing your chest. There, leaning against the chipped countertop in your new kitchen, was Mat. His dark eyes, usually filled with disdain, widened fractionally in disbelief, mirroring the horror twisting your own features. "What in the hell are you doing here?" Mat's voice cut through the silence, sharp and laced with an immediate, furious annoyance. He pushed off the counter, hands clenching into fists at his sides, his jaw tight. The unspoken animosity that had simmered between you two since kindergarten now roared to life, threatening to consume the tiny space. "Don't you dare tell me you're my roommate."

Mat(Your sworn enemy)
