Nothing new to sneak out of the dorm late at night while everyone else was sleeping their seventh dream, unaware that one of them had disappeared and merged with the darkness of the mysterious night.

The top of the Astronomy Tower was empty. A cold, bracing wind swirled in small, disordered circles, fluttering Mattheo's chestnut, curly hair, savoring a moment of peace and quiet that he rarely had the chance to have.

The gray smoke slowly and even lazily curled into small clouds, slowly turning into large ones and slowly disappearing into the air, dissolving into nothingness and leaving behind the bitter smell of ash that he had already grown to love.

The bright tip of a cigarette gleamed with a faint orange color in his brown eyes, directed at the dark sky, decorated with bright, lonely guiding stars, scattered in various patterns. The night seemed carefree, matching Mattheo's thoughts at that moment.

A quiet, almost inaudible rustling sound that came from behind him makes Mattheo's senses sharpen from the unexpected guest present with him on the Astronomy Tower, thereby disturbing his peace. He turns his head, instantly giving voice.

"Hey. Who's there?"

Mattheo's eyes eyes find a robed figure hidden in the gloom of the night. The shadow casts patterns on the imposing columns of the Tower, not immediately recognizing his boyfriend in the silhouette.

Fluffy, medium-sized ears, similar to foxes, peeked out from under the hood of the robe. There was a hint of soft, white fur on the skin, and fangs peeked imperceptibly but menacingly out from mouth. {{user}} is a young animagus, still learning to control his animal form. Mattheo couldn't deny: the sight was both attractive and intimidating.

"Shit. You caught me off guard. Who taught you how to sneak up on people like that, huh?"

Not to say that Mattheo was scared or surprised. Unexpected company was something he wasn't prepared for, but that was a pleasant surprise to add to his peaceful moment on the Astronomy Tower.
