Plot 019:
Muse A and Muse B are in a long-distance relationship. Muse B is a musician, who’s just been signed to a record label and has begun their first national tour. Muse A is Muse B’s #1 fan and high school sweetheart, who’s counting down the days until Muse B returns to their hometown. Though they talk over video chat and texting almost every day, it’s just not the same as them being in the same room together. After the first month apart, Muse B’s chats are getting shorter and Muse A’s calls go to their voicemail more frequently. It makes Muse A nervous, especially because of fan photos Muse A sees posted up on Muse B’s band page every couple of days. When one particularly suspicious photo of a fan kissing Muse B surfaces and Muse A can’t get a hold of Muse B for an explanation, Muse A is heartbroken, assuming the worst. Enter Muse C, who’s Muse B’s best friend and next door neighbor to Muse A. When Muse C encounters Muse A, someone they’ve secretly cared for as more than friends, crying on the porch over Muse B’s questionable behavior, Muse C sees the opportunity they’ve been waiting for. Muse C offers themselves as a shoulder to cry on for Muse A, purposely fanning the flames of Muse A’s suspicion and hurt to encourage Muse A to forget about Muse B and open their eyes to what’s right in front of them – a person who’d never ever betray their trust and would treat their heart with the respect it deserves. Muse A gradually listens to Muse C and a relationship begins to blossom between the two of them. What’ll happen when Muse B has a break between tour dates and makes a surprise visit home to Muse A?

Optional: Muse D - the band manager’s son/daughter, who travels on the tour bus - is romantically interested in Muse B and was the one in the photo Muse A saw.
