Harry right?" to which he replies, "All day and everywhere!" causing Maya to chuckle. Harry's good friend Talia comes up to them and says, "Did you seriously just use that line again?" to which Harry points out that Maya laughed.

Maya copes in an unhealthy way with her two new friends.

When Zig asks Maya to talk via text, she sends him a picture of her, Harry, and Talia with their coolers and says, "At the Torres Party. Too soon?". She then proceeds to dance and drink with Harry and her new friend Talia. Harry later watches in the background when Zig comes to the party asking why Maya is sending him weird texts. He soon catches on that she is drunk and tells her she isn't coping in a healthy way and that this type of personality isn't her. She reminds him that he rejected her and she is just having fun. Drunkingly, she says rude remarks to him about their complicated situation. He tells her she is a mean drunk, and makes sure Tristan will get her home safe before walking out.

Harry and Maya about to make out.

Once the trio are really drunk, they go into a bedroom to get away from the party. Talia and Maya jump on the bed and Harry throws a pillow at them. They then all lay on the bed, Harry taking the opportunity to lay close next to Maya, who questions if he is dating Talia. They say they are "allies in a contradictory world", then Talia talks about teenagers wasting their lives, and she questions why they even go to these high school parties if they end up being lame anyway. After light conversation, Maya is relaxed and says she is glad she met them since they don't look at her with worried faces all the time. Harry asks why people are worried, and she questions if he seriously doesn't know, to which he responds no. 

Talia then finds a picture of Cam on Maya's phone and shows it to Harry, who instantly puts the pieces together. Maya explains that everyone wants her to grieve by drowning in sorrow but she just wants to move on and be happier instead. Harry tells her she can't let people tell her what to do or what to feel. Talia records Maya's speech about not wanting to be "the girlfriend of the dead guy" and she wants everyone to get over it. Talia then looks through Maya's phone more while talking about the world again, but Harry begins rubbing his nose and lips on Maya's neck. She turns her head and he asks if its okay, and she is unsure because she doesn't know him. Harry tells her that is the point, and they make out intensely. Talia sees, grins and begins to record them. She remarks, "Don't mind me" as she points the camera at them. Maya, looks up and sees. She responds by smirking at the camera and turns her attention back to Harry, resuming their make out session. Once home, Maya then posts the video on Facerange and everyone knows they are "messing around".

Maya inviting Harry to her house when her family will be gone.

In Zombie (2)Harry meets up with Maya, and compliments her cello, although he calls it an oboe by mistake. He then says he had fun at the party, and offers a private place for them to make out again. Maya becomes nervous, and declines.

Maya arrives at her audition, fairly nervous. She begins to play her cello for the judges, and she hesitates for a few seconds. She plays well. The judges are impressed by Maya's audition, and ask if she has read the Code of Conduct. She replies saying "no", and the judges then tell her that they have seen the video of her and Harry she posted on FaceRange, and that it made them have second thoughts on accepting her into their orchestra. She says she didn't think it would matter. The judge tells he that "everything matters".

Maya and Harry almost have sex.

Maya later meets with Harry, and tells him how she dumped the cello in the trash. He compliments her on her boldness. She then invites him over to her house to watch a movie. Harry makes it clear he wants to do more than watch films. Maya looks at him before she gives him a heated kiss and coyly says she'll see him later. He turns and watches as she walks away. 

That night, they are seen making out on Maya's couch and she appears happy. However, she soon becomes hesitant when realizing they are making out in the last place she and Cam shared their final moments at. She asks if all they are going to do is kiss and he says they could do more before leaning back and unbuckling his belt. Maya then becomes nervous, telling him that she hasn't done that before. Harry tells her to go with it and to trust him. Maya tries to ease herself into it just as Katie and Margaret walk in. Realizing what was about to happen, Katie kicks Harry out. He quickly gathers his things and rushes out as Maya stands in the middle of the room, looking away from an angered and shocked Katie and Margaret.
