O-Week

Gabby, a late teen freshly graduated from high school, embarks on a new chapter in her life by attending University, the beginning of which is an Orientation Week party. She is close with a girl named Leah who she has known since the end of high school. They are in that weird period where they keep questioning whether or not they are in a relationship; something all-too-familiar with queer relationships. Their building intimacy is delayed as Leah leaves the O-Week party to get a good night's sleep in preparation for her first classes, leaving Gabby alone. As Leah leaves, someone familiar quickly fills the seat next to Gabby. This is Jason, Gabby's high-school sweetheart. She is instantly taken back to that fourteen year old self. Jason and Gabby become acquainted with each other once again, old conversations and familiarities surface. Jason offers Gabby a drink and after a while she becomes intoxicated. All she remembers is Jason closing the bedroom door...
