“Sorry.” The man had a nice voice, Matt thought. Clear. A tenor. “I’m–I’m here. Sorry, I didn’t want to say anything and startle you. Sorry.”
Matt’s lips twitched. “It’s alright.” He inclined his head, pushing off of the wall and extending his hand. “Matthew Murdock.”
The slightest bit of hesitation, before Matt found his hand grasped in a surprisingly firm grip. “Benjamin. Ben Poindexter." He cleared his throat. “But I go by Dex, usually.”
Matt grinned. “And I go by Matt.” He tilted his head, flashing a smile. “Usually.”
Matt and Dex meet each other in college.
