Sassa was heading out of the gym, thoroughly disconcerted from the fact that the lights were still out, her eyes rapidly scanning the short area of dark she could see in front of her, feeling like she was about to be the first victim in a horror movie as she stepped out of the building onto the campus path. She hadn’t gotten very far into the quad when the shape of a figure became visible in the dark, Sassa freezing in place, eyes squinting as she tried to make out who it was, an exhale accompanying the realization of who it was, her shoulders slumping slightly. Normally, she wouldn’t be as delighted to see an ex-boyfriend, but Gabe was a relief when the campus was otherwise downright creepy. “I don’t know if I’ve ever been so glad to see you,” she said, her voice low, like speaking too loudly would somehow disturb the darkness. “Creepy as fuck out here, with no lights.”
