muse a is what they call “the wall”. no matter how well you may think you know them, no matter how well you may make them smile or laugh, you’ll never truly know the real them, due to the wall they have up. muse a has always been closed off when it came to relationships — they didn’t believe anyone could actually see themselves with muse a in the long run, even if they had every single trait they had been looking for. after failed attempts of relationships, muse a had began to get better and better at going from the dumpee to the dumper. like clockwork, muse a just got out of another relationship, one to where it lasted far too long and they bump into muse b, a free-spirited and loving character who never settles, who never gets into relationships and for some odd reason, muse a wants a relationship with muse b in someway and somehow, they were determined to have it — whether it meant risking being hurt once again but, how can you hurt when you’ve become numb to it, right? 

the question that everyone has regarding a break up, is can exes really just be friends after a break up? muse a and muse b had dated for years, knowing every little detail and every habit they had about one another. muse a was this driven and perfectionist of a person, but they always knew how to have a good time — whereas with muse b was always getting in some type of trouble. despite the odd pair, their relationship never went through the ups and downs, they barely ever argued and overall, the two always mentioned how well their relationship has always been — it wasn’t until muse a began to feel like muse b was going into a horrible route in their life with almost getting arrested, talking to people disrespectfully, getting drunk every other day. they were turning into someone muse a didn’t really know anymore and it didn’t make muse a feel any better or safer being with muse b, which ultimately led the two to break up. however, due to their long status of their relationship, muse b has been reaching out, asking and hoping for muse a to at least give them a chance at friendship, but — muse a is now that person asking, can the two really just be friends?

being in an on and off relationship, muse a had always been wrapped around muse b’s finger. the two would fight, break up, make up and repeat and everyone knew the routine of the couple. muse a would fall for muse b’s flashing smile and their heartfelt words that led to them getting back together, even though muse a knew they didn’t actually mean a single word. wanting their relationship to work, muse a tries and has tried everything there is but, muse b makes it clear they could careless of the effort. after looking back at all the fights and all the tears that muse a had to deal with thanks to muse b, it’s a surprise to everyone and to muse b, when muse a finally puts their foot down and begins to worry about themselves again, they start ignoring muse b’s phone calls, home visits and eventually drives muse b over the edge and makes them reevaluate what’s truly happening and tries everything to get muse a’s attention again. 

muse a and muse b had always been the best of friends. the two always were together and nobody or anything could get the two apart. it wasn’t until muse b was offered a job somewhere across the country, and without much thinking, muse a begged them to not go — finally admitting their feelings, muse b agreed to not leave, and without thinking turned down a job that could have changed their life forever but, like every cliche movie, they were blinded by a confess they believed would end happily. after a few months, the two began to fight more often, which led to random outbursts, or one leaving without speaking a word or trying to fix things. the sexual connectivity was there and sadly, it was the only thing keeping the two together. muse a started to feel emotionally disconnected while muse b could only blame muse a for dragging them behind and keeping them from their dream. it was a best friends gone lovers turned into strangers, and that was something they had always wanted to avoid, no matter what may had caused the two to start feeling disconnected to one another.  

muse b is the big shot around campus, known for their charm, their families’ fortune and of course, their player antics. not only are they top of their class, but they are also a top athlete. instead of the cliche, shy muse a falling for the popular muse b, how about muse a is a transfer to said college, and not only are they also known for their charismatic and outgoing personality, but they are also a top athlete. with being said, the two are introduced during class, muse b is up to their old little habits, answering each and every question that the professor throws at them, until they get one wrong and is out shined by muse a, who frankly is, smirking and making it seem like they are taunting muse b for their mistake. it turns into a feud almost, who can answer more questions, who can drink the most beers, who can out fuck the other — little did they know, they have a lot more in common than they truly thought when muse a finally asks muse b on a coffee date, which is where the real tension begins to show.
