1. I think it's simple, meeting in the dark can be romantic but in a cliche sort of way. It lets us know how hard they are trying to fulfill they're desires that they hide behind romantic language and settings. It's also, and probably more probable, that they meet there to keep from getting caught. Sex outside of marriage is not acceptable and lust is a major sin.
2. On the part of Melebia, she had a bit of both going for her. She never really repented in inner dialog about what her activities with Calisto caused. She didn't care because she wanted it. However, she commits suicide because she can no longer play the game with Calisto and have him fulfill her desires.
3. The death's represent a decent into hell. Calisto falls of a ladder, Sempronio and Parmeno fall from a window. It's all very symbolic. Perhaps this means that love or desire will drive you to hell.
