Maya Penelope Hart Hunter, professionally known as Maya Hart, is one of the biggest artists in the music industry right now. She just released of the second half of her fourth album, Singular Act II, is rehearsing for tour, and filming for music videos and movies alike. Everything is going well for the 21 year old. Until she runs into her ex. The ex that nobody knows is her ex. The ex that broke her heart and made her cold.
Riley Matthews is growing a name for herself as one of the only openly bisexual artists in the music industry who uses either gender neutral or female pronouns in her music, a model, and as an actress. The 21 year old having just released her first EP, Make My Bed, is grabbing the attention of young LGBTQ+ people everywhere. Her song, 1950, becoming universally loved by everyone. What nobody seems to know though, is who her EP is about, although many have thoughts that it's about her ex best friend, even though the two never publicly said they were together, even the other denying the two ever being a couple several times.
Maya held back her feelings for years. She watched Riley date Lucas, then Charlie, then a series of other boyfriends. She kept quiet because she knew she stood no chance, she wasn't a boy after all. The day Riley introduced her to her new girlfriend, something in Maya snapped. She found herself on a downward spiral of anger and self loathing. Can anyone save her? Is it too late for Riley to put her friend back together again?
