After breaking up at the end of Hitting the Crossbar, Macy and Sam are taking some time to figure out if they have a future together.

Macy is concerned that Sam can't trust her–or recognize that she can have male friends, especially Dante, and not be romantically interested in them. Then there's Sam's friend, Alexis. Macy can see that Alexis is obsessed with Sam and wants Macy out of the picture. Sam swears he'd never choose her, but for Macy his refusal to believe what she's telling him is the final straw. Macy knows that she still loves Sam, but she can't handle his constant jealousy any longer even as he ignores what his friend is trying to do to her.

However, when Sam is forced to go back to the UK to visit his grandfather, Macy reluctantly agrees to fulfill a promise she'd made earlier and go with him. Can being in a new country, away from their problems, help the two figure out where they stand? Or will it only confirm their decision to stay apart.
