Avi is love struck over her crush Billie. She admired everything about the girl who seemed so open yet closed up. When Billie invites her on tour, she finds out that the feelings she has continues to grow.

Lauren's life has never been easy. Growing up with an alcoholic mother and a drug addict as a step father she had to learn how to be tough, even though it got hard at times she eventually pulled through.

But what happens when the new girl Normani Kordei makes it her mission to get Lauren to open up to her? Will Lauren open up to Normani or will her walls be too high to break?
