Hi All, [ particularly
@Respites @Sidian ]
Today I posted background to the story. Thought I'd put it here too. It's a little long but worth a read if you're interested in my story. Thanks
Character Biographies. Please Read Before Contributing.
Introduction
I have had to ask writers to rework some chapters because their work clashed with what has already been written. So, to save everyone time I have wrote some rules and background.
I'm picky because this story is based on an old muse of mine. Therefore, I'd appreciate it if all contributors take the time to read this chapter in order to not drift too far from the 'truth.' In short, the story has to be believable.
But please... don't let the above put you off contributing. I love reading all work.
Please note: All contributions must be 1st person [from the viewpoint of Dan]

Characters
NAME: Dan
AGE: 22
OCCUPATION: Geography student but works a weekend job in a pizzeria.
DESCRIPTION: Tall and slim with short brown hair. Better looking than he gives himself credit for. One of the few people who Dawn confides in. A fact Dan is super proud of. Believes himself to be the man to save Dawn.
PERSONALITY: Mild-mannered and patient... but his frustration is growing with Dawn. 'Mr Nice Guy' is Dan's default personality, but if you want to give him a darker side that is born through frustration or a hidden fetish, feel free.
Dan's lack of confidence isn't crushing, but comes from the fact he's not quite found his place in the world. The fact he's still a virgin doesn't help, something which he hasn't told Dawn. Had several brief romances but not got past 'first base.'
Since Dan started university he has become relatively popular with a growing circle of friends which he has worked hard to build. But this has come at a cost to his studies.
BACKGROUND: Lives at home with his parents in a close knit family, but spends a lot of time at Dawn's student apartment where he's also befriended Dawn's 4 female flatmates. [ 3 medical students and 1 fashion student. Also, as it's the end of term-time flatmates aren't in the house on night of events. But can return at a later date if your thread continues after said night.]
Dan's parent's house in out of the city so he often stays at Dawn's house during the week. Either taking the couch or a using blow-up mattress in Dawn's room.
SEX SCENES: Slightly larger than average cock. But Dan isn't aware of this because of self-doubt and the fact he's only ever compared himself with onscreen porn stars.

NAME: Dawn
AGE: 21
OCCUPATION: Ecology student: Financially supported by family including a generous donation from her grandmother who is her closest relative. [Thinking of a future story thread inspired by a conversation I once had with Dawn, where she falls on hard times and puts her good looks to work]
DESCRIPTION: Incredibly attractive - so much so she'd been offered modelling contacts in the past. Brunette, tall and slender to the point of being 'model' skinny with petite breasts. [think a young Catherine Zeta Jones] Also, it wasn't intentional, but my profile pic looks identical to the real girl. Dawn likes to show off her legs, so often wears short dresses/skirts with nylons or just dark leggings.
Dawn's clothes in the Introduction are as follows: red strapless dress; red high heels; seamless skin-colored tights; red strapless bra with matching panties (made of a smooth fabric)
COMPLEX FAMILY BACKGROUND: Quite wealthy parents [father is an architect] but they're going through a difficult breakup. Mother is a alcoholic and father has always been cold/unloving/strict. Has an older brother who is a waster [smokes weed and unemployed] but enjoys a close relationship with Dawn [although Dan did spot the brother checking out Dawn's ass once

]. Comes from the remote countryside. Spends a lot of time with her grandmother who lives next door.
PERSONALITY: Dawn is a flawed character. Battles depression which over the past year has twice caused her to 'disappear' for three to four weeks. Developing a ruinous relationship with alcohol. Being under the influence inflames her reckless side. Doesn't know/admit it, but she needs saving from herself. Intelligent and very creative. When sober Dawn spends her free time painting, drawing and loves calligraphy.
Dawn has struggled to form deep friendships since the onset of bipolar in her late teens. As she often is forced to let people down, as such, over time they sadly become frustrated with her. Dawn's best friend was a girl called Chloe but as she married young Dawn see's her less now. She is friendly with her flatmates and often go on student nights together - but there is no strong connection between them.
SEX SCENES: Small breasts, pale white skin, lithe limbs, No tattoos. Only piercings being one in either ear. Triangle of Trimmed pubic hair sits just above an otherwise smooth pussy. Dawn relies on condoms but is sometimes too drunk to remember if the guy wore one.

DAN AND DAWN'S RELATIONSHIP As the title suggests they're just friends. Known each other for about a year. First met in a lecture when Dan asked her about a headline in a newspaper she was reading. Dan is still amazed he had the courage to ask her for coffee afterwards. They've since been pretty much inseparable, a fact largely down to Dan's persistence. Dan loves Dawn to the point of obsession. However, Dawn just sees it as a close friendship and is happy to have found a good friend... but nothing more. Main problem being, Dawn attracts a lot of attention from guys. So why commit to someone at 21? Plus, frustratingly for Dan, when opportunities do occur, he is often too tied-up with self doubt and/or respect for Dawn to take advantage.
