Kate in the spotlight

Kate Garfield and Anderson Walker are best friends and spend all their time together. Contrary to popular belief, they are definitely not dependent on each other. Do they go to theatre rehearsals together? Sure, it's green and efficient. Do they advise each other on every life decision? No way, they've got all five together. Do they miss the same guys from across the country? Yes, but having a crush is fun. Until, of course, Matt Olsson shows up at school and a situation arises for which they have no script. Matt is talented and sweet and Kate likes him. She really likes it. The problem is, so is Andy. It turns out that moaning about pretty boys isn't so much fun when real feelings get involved, and Kate and Andy realise that this crush could destroy their friendship for good.
