Sarah

She's always there for her other friends.

Just a super reliable, great person.

we hung out a lot she was one of my best friends and we were spending most weekends together how well did you know SL

I knew SL from high school.

I had hung out with him a couple times.

It had been a couple years since I had seen him, so not super well, but I was familiar with him.

He did not have a great reputation.

I think he was at Stanford and transferring to the U. I didn't think he had a great reputation, but I felt like maybe Marissa knew him better than I did.

I know that they had kind of texted here and there, but it felt more friendship-like to me, especially because he was like a few years younger than her.

Maybe a little flirty here and there, but definitely more like friend vibes.

Yeah, so we hadn't officially met before, but we were messaging on Instagram and would kind of just respond to each other's stories here and there.

So that was the first time that we were planning to hang out.

We were just there for a party.

We were like, oh, let's see if he wants to come because we had talked about hanging out.

We had gone to a previous party before, but then we had heard that these guys were going over to SL's house.

And so we were like, oh, let's just go over there.

We were mostly just trying to meet new people, hang out and see where the night took us.

I had been there a couple times before in high school.

It was a pretty big house.

We just parked out front, went inside.
