blaire kanoa, adjusting to her recent rise to fame, finds herself brushing shoulders with her celebrity crush. even worse, he knows that she likes him and makes it his mission to never let her live it down. matt sturniolo, said celebrity crush, is forced to come to terms with the fact that the long running joke may not really be a joke after all- he might have feelings for blaire.

it's no secret that chris sturniolo has always thought of vivienne wagner as the center of the universe. for the sake of their friendship, the glue that held their friend group together, he has never even considered following up on anything he spoke about. ⋆ ˚｡⋆ vivienne is constantly begging chris to stop. she considers him all talk, and finds it frustrating that the man that treats her the best doesn't actually want anything to do with her. ⋆ ˚｡⋆ when their senior year rolls around, the pairs' dynamic comes to a head, and they are forced to deal with the fallout ⋆ ˚｡⋆

emeline pierce and chris sturniolo were just another failed talking stage. the pair hung out with each other for a couple months and eventually fizzled out amicably. chris's friend group took the girl in and immediately emeline became a part of the family. after getting to know emeline as a friend, it doesn't take long for him to realize he made a mistake by letting her go. now chris faces the daunting task of making emeline see him as more than just a failed talking stage, and more than just a friend.
