Once upon a time, there were two girls: the first, Emily Fields, was the star and anchor of Rosewood's swim team. Openly gay and beautiful, everything just seemed so like it was easy for her. The other, Paige McCullers, was the swim team's captain. Insecure and uncertain, Paige wanted nothing more than to be normal. Even though they were teammates, they hardly knew each other. But fate intervened and brought them together. Paige envied Emily's seemingly perfect life, though Emily was certain that Paige's life was much easier than her own. Their competative nature drew them together and then pushed them apart, but everything changed when one day, Paige kissed Emily.

Paige is the girl that Emily a l w a y s wanted. Emily is the girl who makes Paige brave. They are a complimentary match; two sides of the same coin. It isn't until they open up to each other that they realize just how alike they really are -- and how much they need each other.

And their story is still being told ...

like ships in the night, you keep passing me by

and if it all goes c r a s h i n g into the sea
if it's just you and me trying to find the light

like a love song ღ the EPic soundtrack

good and pure she is on the inside. It was something I wasn't expecting, and
it was the most wonderful surprise in the world.”

“They called me back for a chemistry read with Shay Mitchell and it
was amazing. Sometimes chemistry reads can be — I don't know, just not as
good as you want them to be. But it was so much fun with Shay.”

“I love Lindsey Shaw more than anything ... When she came in and tapped
me on the shoulder, I loved that scene. Lindsey was super hot that day.”

v i d e o s ;

feel so heavy, feel so low
how to tame a lion
fix you
quiet
consequence
i wish you were here
you're fearless
i don't know where i go
the whole world is going to change
and i don't want the world to see me
please don't leave me
missing your love
more . . .
