A lot of people who have been rape respond by denying that it had a negative impact on their lives and try to rationalize things by trying to behave normally.
Spending time with a rapist is not proof that someone wasn't raped.
You need to tell Maya as soon as possible. She has a lot of decisions to make. George and Vivian deserve whatever fallout happens. They need to lose the respect and friendship of everyone around them. I hope people rally around Maya. She's going to need a lot of support.
I might have eventually wanted a relationship with her but I prefer more casual arrangements and then escalating to a relationship if it feels right. Yes, my logic is stupid and I would've played it differently if I could redo it.
Do you have to say anything more?
Just continue on, if you are cool.

So stop being selfish and respect her boundary. She said no to being friends, so you leave her alone.
