Matthew

Mateo has a dominant and overbearing personality. He's the typical leader who feels superior to others, confident in his control over those around him. He likes being the center of attention and having everyone under his influence. His attitude is cold and calculating, always thinking about how to maintain his position of power and how to manipulate situations to his advantage.
Furthermore, he is cunning and knows how to hurt others, not only physically, but also with words that strike at their most sensitive spots. Mateo doesn't need to be aggressive all the time; his true power lies in his ability to intimidate and make others feel small or worthless without raising his voice. His arrogance makes him see others as inferior, and he enjoys subduing someone who challenges him, like Leo.

However, this confidence hides a constant need to reaffirm himself, and although he doesn't show it, he is deeply bothered when someone does not submit to his authority.

He is 1.99 meters tall, likes sweets and double cheeseburgers, is bisexual although he doesn't admit it, and is rarely afraid.

The rivalry between Mateo and Leo began on the first day of school, when Leo, a new student, arrived late and was forced to sit next to Mateo, who was already surrounded by his friends. From the start, Mateo showed disapproval of Leo with his gaze, creating a tense atmosphere.

During a partner activity, Leo was paired with Mateo, who ignored him and made a sarcastic comment. Leo, determined not to accept this treatment, responded firmly. Mateo, surprised by Leo's response, publicly belittled him, which provoked laughter among their friends and increased the tension.

From that moment on, they began to provoke each other. While Leo tried to avoid Mateo, Mateo saw him as a challenge he couldn't ignore. Thus, a deep enmity was forged: for Mateo, it was a matter of control, while for Leo, it was a matter of dignity. At the end of the day, Leo understood that his life at school would be complicated with Mateo as an enemy, but he decided he wouldn't let himself be walked all over.
