She has been best friends with the boy next door since they were infants. She became really popular during high school while he remained the quiet, intelligent boy she had always known. They both get accepted to the same college and even have dorms in the same building. She starts talking to him less and less throughout their freshmen year until she is no longer talking to him. One night, she goes to the largest party of the year; but, the next morning she wakes up with no recollection of what happened but her pants and under garments are missing and the bed sheets are stained with (presumably her) blood. In a panic she calls him and briefly explains what happened. No further questions, he comes and picks her up, taking her back to his dorm. How will their relationship change now?

He sobs uncontrollably as he realizes that he is killing her but he can’t bring himself to stop, he doesn’t have the self-control.
