Tori Vega is the new girl at Hollywood Arts, and she's terrified. Overwhelmed by crowds and new faces, she's convinced she'll never fit in-convinced everyone's judging her. The only person who truly gets her is Jade West, who knows firsthand how loud and overwhelming the world can feel.
One Saturday, the two head to the local mall for a quiet shopping trip-until something unexpected stops them in their tracks. There, on his own, is up-and-coming actor Beck Oliver. He spots Jade immediately; they were inseparable best friends as kids, before his family moved away abruptly. He hurries over to catch up, but even in the excitement of reuniting, he can't help noticing Tori: the way she shrinks back, the small flinch when someone passes too close, the quiet fear in her eyes.
Feeling like an intruder on their long-awaited reunion, Tori's anxiety spills over, and she flees in tears. Now, Beck-who's already seen parts of her no one else has-wonders if he could be the one to help her find her place, and finally feel like she belongs.
