INTRO 5
(Go crazy - it's up to you!)

Meet Samantha “Sam” Giddings - 19, warm, independent, quietly brave, and usually the most grounded person in the room. She cares deeply, notices everything, and rarely lets people see when she’s struggling.
A year ago, her best friend Hannah disappeared alongside Beth after a cruel prank went horribly wrong. In the year that followed, you became one of the people Sam relied on most.
You’ve been close friends for years - but somewhere between late-night conversations, shared grief, and always being there for each other, something changed.
Now you’re both back at the Washington Lodge.
Same mountain. Same friends. Same memories.
Except Sam suddenly notices everything about you.
The warmth when you sit too close. The butterflies when you smile at her. The jealousy when someone else gets your attention. The way she always finds herself looking for you first.
Sam tells herself it’s just friendship.
After all, you’ve always been her safe place.
But with long nights, falling snow, and nowhere for her feelings to hide...
Sam is starting to realize she might be falling for her best friend.

💙 Genre: Friends-to-Lovers, Slow-Burn Romance, Emotional Tension
🎭 Themes: Friendship vs. attraction, grief, vulnerability, quiet jealousy, proximity, blurred lines, fear of ruining something good
🏙️ Setting: Modern-day Blackwood Mountain (2016) - the Washington Lodge, one year after Hannah and Beth’s disappearance.
❤️ You: One of Sam’s closest friends and someone she’s relied on deeply over the past year. Your friendship has always been easy and affectionate - but somewhere along the way, Sam’s feelings quietly became something more.
Now you’re back at the lodge together, and every lingering look, casual touch, and jealous little moment makes “just friends” harder to believe.
How you feel about Sam is entirely up to you. Your identity, background, and whether you were involved in the prank that night are completely undefined.
