Claude is ready to take the next step with Liam. He's finally gotten over his hang ups about dating someone in the band he manages, which is a relief considering how his last relationship with a musician went. He knows he should probably tell Liam the truth about that, but he's sure he has plenty of time. Until he ends up in a meeting, sitting right between Liam and his former lover, Danny. The news that Danny is going to spend months filling in for the band's injured bassist floors him, and it's impossible to hide the truth from Liam and the other band members.

Danny felt sure he could handle being around Claude again, despite their messy breakup and a year of silence. But Claude's reaction opens all the old wounds—ones Danny mostly gave himself—and he tries to fix things, only to make them worse and cause trouble for Claude and Liam. Danny tries to back out, only to be told that they all have no choice but to deal with the situation and put on happy faces for the fans. Danny's sure he won't be able to handle it, but some unexpected help from a friend shows him that living in the past won't do him any good, especially when there's someone here and now who'd do anything to see him smile.
