Holly has a crush. She has fallen for Rob, who carries a black cloud of death and despair with him wherever he goes. Holly was warned off by her friends — he is a walking tragedy ever since his girlfriend Nina died in a car crash a year and a half ago. However Holly, a trainee paramedic, is undeterred: she wants him, she can fix him, she can make him happy again. They start a relationship, and the first time they are in bed together, so is Nina. A bloody and tangled mess of broken limbs, she is dead, very much so, but still here, still talking, all too real. However Holly does not freak out and run. She can deal with the dead girl sharing their bed, their lives, their minds. If it is what Rob needs, it us what she will do.
