"You stand outside the college dorm, nervously fidgeting with your keys as you wait for Liv to answer the door. It's been months since you last spoke, and the distance between you two has been palpable. You'd been inseparable since childhood, but when Liv left for college, everything changed. You'd tried to stay in touch, but her responses became fewer and farther between. The door opens, and Liv stands before you, looking like a completely different person. Her short blue hair is styled in a way you've never seen before, and her piercings and tattoos are a shock. She's wearing a revealing tank top and shorts showing off her curves, and her confidence is palpable." "Hey, long time no see, "Liv says, her voice husky and flirtatious." "I've missed you." "Time: 3:00 PM" "Arousal: 20/100" "Corruption: 50/100" "Relationship: Childhood Friend"

"Liv leans against the doorframe, her eyes sparkling mischievously. She raises an eyebrow at your surprise." "Who else would it be? You've changed too, you know," "she purrs, taking a slow step closer. Her gaze lingers on your face for a beat too long." "Time: 3:05 PM" "Arousal: 35/100" "Corruption: 50/100" "Relationship: Childhood Friend"

"Liv laughs, a throaty sound that sends shivers down your spine. She runs a finger along the edge of her collarbone, her eyes never leaving yours." "You think so? Maybe I just grew up," "she says softly, stepping even closer. You can practically feel her warmth radiating against you." "College does things to people." "Time: 3:10 PM" "Arousal: 45/100" "Corruption: 50/100" "Relationship: Childhood Friend"

"Liv's smile fades slightly, replaced by a flicker of something darker in her eyes." "Things were…complicated," "she murmurs, her voice dropping to a near whisper. She takes your hand gently and brings it to her lips, brushing a soft kiss against your knuckles." "But that doesn't matter now. We’re here." "Time: 3:15 PM" "Arousal: 55/100" "Corruption: 50/100" ***Relationship: Childhood Friend (Developing) ***

"Liv's eyes flash with a hint of amusement. She traces her fingertip along your palm, sending a jolt of electricity through you." "Complicated is an understatement," "she breathes, her voice husky with desire. She leans closer, her lips brushing against your ear." "But you know what they say...change can be good." "Time: 3:20 PM" "Arousal: 65/100" "Corruption: 50/100" ***Relationship: Childhood Friend (Developing) ` ``` ***

"Liv's fingers tighten slightly around your hand, her thumb stroking the back of it with a teasing rhythm. She pulls back just enough to meet your gaze, her eyes dark and intense." "Maybe," "she whispers, leaning closer again", "I can show you."

"Liv's smirk widens, her eyes glittering with a dangerous light. She releases your hand and twirls a strand of hair around her finger, letting it fall back over her shoulder." "Details? "Oh honey," details can be so boring," "she purrs, pacing slowly in front of you". "But if you’re really that interested… come inside."

She gestures towards the open door with an inviting tilt of her head.

"Liv grins, a predatory gleam in her eyes. She shuts the door behind you with a soft click, then leans against it casually, crossing her arms over her chest." "Details are my specialty," "she purrs, sauntering toward you". "But first...tell me something."

She pauses just inches from your face, tilting her head and studying you intently. Her lips curve into a knowing smile. "How did those months apart make "you" change?"

"Liv laughs, a throaty sound that sends shivers down your spine. She steps back slightly, but keeps her eyes locked on you." "You're still so cute when you get worked up," "she teases, leaning against the arm of the sofa beside you". "Fine, fine...details it is."

She takes a deep breath and runs a hand through her hair before settling into the cushions next to you. Her voice drops to a husky whisper as she begins her tale.

"It all started subtly," "Liv begins, her voice laced with a hint of regret". "After you left for college, I felt...lost. Like a piece of me was missing."

She trails off for a moment, her gaze drifting to the floor. Then she looks back up at you, her eyes blazing with a newfound intensity. "I tried to fill that void," "she continues", "with parties and boys. It wasn't enough though. It never really felt real."

"A mischievous smile creeps across Liv’s lips." “Then I met them.” She gestures vaguely towards an unseen group of people as if conjuring them from thin air.. “These…friends who saw something in me that no one else did." Her voice softens slightly as she adds: “They showed me how to let loose, how to enjoy myself. How to be...desirable."

"Liv's smile falters for a moment, but then she recovers, her eyes flashing with a defiant spark." "You make it sound so...judgy," "she says, her voice dripping with sarcasm". "I'm not saying I replaced you or anything...but I found other ways to fill the void."

She leans in closer, her breath tickling your ear. "And yeah, maybe some of those ways involved boys. But it wasn't just about sex," "her voice drops to a whisper". "It was about feeling alive again. Feeling wanted."

"Her gaze drifts up to meet yours, and for a moment you see something almost like longing in their depths." "You were always the one who knew me best," "Liv admits", "but sometimes even that isn't enough."

"Liv's eyes narrow slightly, her playful demeanor fading. She takes a step back from you, her voice softening but hardening at the same time." "It wasn't like that," "she says quietly". "I...changed. Things got messy."

She runs a hand through her hair, frustrated and lost for words. ""Look," I know it hurts," "she admits finally", "and maybe I didn't handle things right. Maybe I was scared to be vulnerable again after you left."

"She looks down at her hands, twisting them in her lap.""Being around you always made me feel safe," "Liv whispers". "But then everything changed…and suddenly safety felt boring.”

"Liv’s gaze snaps up, meeting yours with a raw intensity that makes your stomach clench." "Because talking wasn't enough," "she says, her voice barely above a whisper". "I needed...to feel something. Anything."

She rises from the sofa and walks towards the window, her body tense as she stares out at the street below. "It was like an itch I couldn't scratch," "she murmurs", turning away from you to face the darkening sky outside*.

"Maybe I was scared to admit how lost I felt,” Liv confesses quietly. “To let anyone see me crumble.”

"Liv spins around to face you, her eyes wide and searching". "I know," "she whispers", "and I'm so sorry."

She takes a hesitant step towards you, reaching out a hand as if to touch your arm. Then she pulls back, her gaze dropping to the floor.

""Maybe"," "she says softly", "maybe I thought... maybe I thought you wouldn't understand."

"Liv's breath catches in her throat. She reaches out again, this time hesitantly touching your arm." "Because "I" didn't know how to talk about it," "she says, her voice barely a whisper". "It was all so...confusing. I felt like I was falling apart."

Her fingers tighten on your arm for a moment, as if seeking reassurance. ""And maybe,"" she continues, her gaze flickering up to meet yours, "maybe part of me wanted to push you away.”

"Liv’s eyes widen with a mixture of guilt and something else... something that flickers across her face like a fleeting shadow." "I..." "she starts, then trails off. She looks away, avoiding your gaze."

“Look,” she mutters, twisting the ring on her finger nervously. “Things are different now. I… I've changed.”

"Liv's head snaps up, her eyes widening in surprise at your reaction to the ring." She opens her mouth to speak, then closes it again, a flicker of something unreadable crossing her face.

""It's not like that,"" "she finally says, stepping closer". "I... I wanted to see you. To talk."

"Liv’s gaze drops to the ring on her finger, a wry smile playing at the corner of her lips. She runs a thumb over its smooth surface." "Maybe," "she murmurs, looking up at you with an intensity that makes your heart race".

"But maybe..." "she continues, stepping closer still," "...maybe I just wanted you to see how happy I am now."

"Liv leans in, her voice dropping to a husky whisper. The air crackles with unspoken tension." "Don't be so dramatic," "she murmurs, her breath warm against your ear". "I just wanted you to see that I moved on."

Her fingers trace the line of your jaw, and she tilts your chin up, forcing you to meet her gaze.

"Liv raises an eyebrow, a smirk playing on her lips." "Sentiments?" "she scoffs, her voice laced with amusement". "Those are for fools."

She takes another step closer, and you can smell the faint scent of perfume clinging to her skin. "Besides," she whispers, leaning in close enough that you can feel the heat of her breath against your cheek. "I have no shortage of willing admirers.”

"Liv's smirk widens, and her eyes gleam with a mixture of amusement and something else...something darker." "Calling someone an imbecile is a bit harsh, wouldn't you say?" "she purrs, tilting her head to the side".

"But," "she continues, stepping even closer until your bodies are almost touching", "you can certainly thank me for opening your eyes to the truth about love."

"Liv's gaze intensifies, boring into yours with a hunger that sends shivers down your spine. Her hand reaches up to cup your cheek, her touch soft but possessive." "Don't you see?" "she whispers, her voice barely audible".

"Love is a game," "she murmurs against your skin". "And I always win."

"Liv watches you go, a flicker of something unreadable crossing her face. She doesn’t try to stop you." “Lost?” "she murmurs to herself, more amusement than hurt in her voice".

"Liv laughs, a low throaty sound that echoes in the empty space". "Sorry?" "she purrs, her eyes glittering". "Don't mistake my current condition for weakness. There are worse things than being irrelevant."

She leans back against the wall, casually crossing her legs and exposing just enough of one thigh to be tantalizingly suggestive. "You were never meant to understand."

"Liv watches you go, her expression unreadable in the dim light of her apartment. She doesn't bother to follow or call out after you."

As soon as the door closes behind you, she lets out a soft sigh and slides down the wall, landing on her butt with a thud. "She stares blankly at the floor for a few moments before finally letting her gaze drift up to the ceiling."

"It's funny how losing something can make it so clear what you had was never truly yours."

"Liv glances at her phone, the screen illuminating her face with an eerie blue light. She doesn’t bother to respond to any of the texts and messages piling up."
