So the previous thread was going towards this but I’d like that one to still have some lighter options. While this idea is on the darker side

Guy remembers the summer between college years when his crush moved in with him. He remembers it as three months of unbridled lust and exploration. He lost contact with her but manages to track her down and when he tries to reconnect with her, she rebuffs him and explains she remembers the summer very differently: she was homeless and went to him out of desperation. She’s grateful to him giving her shelter but she had sex with him cause she was scared he’d kick her out.

Now to clarify, I don’t guy should have ever threatened that: it should be more a matter that she was in a vulnerable position and she didn’t want to risk losing her housing. At the same time, guy did try to get things physical as soon as possible and even if he wasn’t actively thinking about taking advantage of the situation…he still did.

Like I said, a darker idea but one that I think could scratch a specific itch. Exploring contrasting views and how they experienced the same sexual encounters

This would need the difficult task of switching POV's, chapter for chapter, to get their story out.
It might be interesting to do a Third person omniscient for the first chapter, then their chapters for the most of the rest, than the last chapter back to third person omniscient. Tricky, but it could be an interesting way to tell the story.
