can friends kiss?

Cindy Cabello has always been the sister who stayed out of the spotlight or at least tried to.

Three years younger than Camila, Cindy grew up alongside her sister and learned early that life on tour meant airports, hotel rooms, screaming crowds, and very little privacy. Despite their hectic lives, the sisters have always been inseparable.

And then there was Sabrina.

Sabrina Carpenter had been Cindy's best friend long before either of them became household names. They knew each other's secrets, finished each other's sentences, and shared the kind of friendship that felt impossible to break.

Until it did.

When Sabrina began dating Shawn after his breakup with Camila, the friendship between Cindy and Sabrina became strained. Cindy found herself caught between loyalty to her sister and feelings she couldn't quite put into words. Then Sabrina released a song that seemed to touch painfully close to home, and whatever remained between them fractured completely.

Cindy became known for avoiding commitment, throwing herself into her career, touring, and a string of short-lived romances that never meant enough to hurt when they ended.

They've both moved on.

At least, that's what they told themselves.

When a chance encounter puts them back in each other's lives, old memories begin resurfacing and so do feelings neither of them are ready to confront.

Because sometimes the person you try to forget is the person you've loved all along.
