Interesting. So if he had been away before, possibly she had hated it and therefore dreaded being apart from him again. But on the other hand, it may well be that she dreaded it because it was the first time in that flat, as you emphasised, and that she was afraid of being on her own there. It was a ground-floor flat with its own entrance, separate and secluded from the comings and goings of the occupants of the upper-floor flats through the main entrance to the house, yet fairly visible, open and accessible from the road (no lockable fence or gate to the side passage, cutting off access from the front). Maybe that made her feel vulnerable which, as it turned out, unfortunately, she would have been right to feel. It would have been unlikely and indeed impossible for him to do at least some of the things he did that night had he had to enter and exit the house through the main entrance.
Another thought: on those other occasions in a different flat, I wonder if she had arranged to visit her family or friends or have someone to stay.
I'm sorry but I still find it incredible that Greg accepted her not replying to his text to say he'd arrived safely and asked her how she got on at the pub...
her first weekend in that flat on her own, she was "dreading" it and no one checked up on her...... defies belief.
