Ricky Bowen, you've heard of him right? Well of course you have, he's been in the business for over 20 years. Started off as a child actor, and then slowly starting to rise up in the music industry. Now, he's probably one of the biggest household names at age 24. But underneath the shining star is an overworked, and burnt out drunky who's practically on his breaking point. During only the 3rd show of his tour, Ricky seems like a complete lost cause and is forced to go on hiatus. Instead of just staying home for a while and not working, he's shipped off to a small suburb outside of Albuquerque, New Mexico to live with his grandparents for a while. He thinks he doesn't have a problem, and just wants to go back to his depressing LA lifestyle. But maybe the towns resident cafe owner can change that.

Nini Salazar-Roberts is just your average 23 year-old woman. She graduated college and started her own Cafe, Cream n' Sugar. She will often drive down to John and Linda Bowen's house to help deliver groceries or just have a cup of tea. She's often described as one of the nicest people you'll ever meet and is loved by all, that is until Bowen shows up.

The two don't necessarily click at first, and Ricky definitely doesn't want to get to know her in the slightest. But then on the same night, both make what they say to be the biggest mistake of their lives and everything just hits absolute rock bottom. Nini and Ricky want nothing more than for the other to get so far out of their life. But throw in a few lies and a little bit of fun, and now you've got everyone's new favorite couple... To the public at least. Could their one mistake lead to the best thing ever, or a complete disaster? I guess you'll have to see what they're Hiding Behind all that Hatred.

Another role play between @LibbyLou814 and I. (She's Nini and I'm Ricky, and we fill in for the rest).

Gina quickly understands that Salt Lake simply isn't what it used to be anymore and that Ricky just isn't interested in her anymore. She's fine with that, she understands that, so she keeps her distance and befriends senior EJ Caswell and his adorable cousin. When Gina meets Nini though, it was a connection like no other. But this is Ricky's friend and honestly she wants nothing to do with anyone in Ricky's life. Gina quickly becomes her true self with EJ and Ashlyn, but to all others?
