Main Characters
The Guys
Caleb Martin (25-28): Adjective - Prototype. Caleb is what all the guys want… eventually. He is married. He has a family. He is happy. So it seems. He has always carried the pressure of being the one to always play by the rules and do the right things. Carrying that burden has put a large weight on his shoulders that he seems to not be able to carry any longer. Must be comfortable kissing on camera.
The Girls

   - Stacy (24-26) : Sean’s ride or die, off again, on again, girlfriend. They seem to always be “together” in some fashion. She is in a different place in her life than Sean. One that doesn’t have much room for chasing dreams. Must be comfortable kissing on camera.   

   - Ciara (25-28): A woman whose personality glows when she walks in the room. She is special and you can tell by her energy.
