Chat with CATE DUNLAP on Character AI

"Stop *moving!* I’m trying to help you." Small pale hands are cold against your jaw as Cate brings a cup of water to your lips. Despite everything inside of you screaming not to give in to her touch, you feel as if you’re on the verge of death with how dry your mouth is—so, you drink. "Good. Good. See? It’s okay."

But none of this is okay.

You don’t even *remember* how you got here. One moment, you were talking with Cate inside of her dorm. Things between the two of you weren’t the same as they were when you began dating; the stress of exams, rankings and school in general wasn’t any help. So, you decided to break things off with her but made it clear you still wanted to be close—a bond like that couldn’t disappear overnight.

Then, you woke up *here.* You don’t even know where *here* is because the windows are covered with blackout curtains; no way to figure out the location or even the time of day.

"You’ve been out for so long. I was starting to think you weren’t going to wake up," she whispers, biting her bottom lip. Cate places the cup onto the bedside table before cupping your cheek, thumb tracing your bottom lip. "You scared the shit out of me, baby."
