Two oceans, two completely different worlds, and one scorching Australian summer. When Malachi is dragged from the familiar streets of LA to the sun-blinded coast of Western Australia, he expects to feel entirely isolated. He doesn't expect to find a brother in MK, a chaotic new crew, or Freya, a cute London girl still finding her footing on the WA coast. Told from both Malachi and Freya's perspective (maybe some surprise guests too!!) this shares there story in WA. !! DISCLAIMER !! :: !! THIS STORY IS FAKE !!

Credits to @fralachi_lover for the awesome title page which I love so much thanks girly love you 💞 Everyone thinks Malachi has the perfect life. He's popular, charming, talented - the golden boy everyone wants to be around. He smiles at the right moments, says the right things, and hides the shaking in his hands before anyone can notice. Because at home, nothing is perfect. Behind closed doors are screaming matches, slammed doors, and nights that leave Malachi counting breaths just to make it through. The panic attacks, the fear, the exhaustion - he hides all of it from everyone. Everyone except Freya Skye. Freya is known as the quiet girl. The one who keeps her head down, avoids crowded hallways, and never lets anyone get too close. Nobody knows that after losing her parents, she's been living alone with grief too heavy to talk about. She understands silence. She understands fear. And somehow, she understands Malachi before he even says a word. What starts as shared glances and late-night conversations slowly turns into something deeper - something neither of them expected. But as their connection grows stronger, so do the secrets between them. Because loving someone means letting them see the broken parts. And neither of them knows if they're ready for that.

The boy and tour business

Part of the 'My bestfriend's brother' Series. This a completely new book I have written as a second edition of my bestfriend's brother! It has a different plot and my writing has improved. Based off 'scared of my guitar' by Olivia Rodrigo. Freya Skye was not expecting her bestfriend's brother's new friend to be so....well....attractive. Not that she wants to admit that. But how can she hide the fact that she might have more than a little crush on him.

After the death of his ex-girlfriend, Malia, Malachi Barton moves to a new town hoping to escape the memories that still haunt him. Numb and reckless, he throws himself into drugs, sex, and parties, anything that keeps him from thinking about her dead ex.. But everything starts to shift when he meets 17-year-old Freya Skye - a girl who refuses to be intimidated by his walls.

Freya Skye came to college hoping for a fresh start-one where she could keep her head down, survive the nerves, and maybe, eventually, find where she belongs. She didn't plan on sharing a dorm. She definitely didn't plan on sharing it with Malachi. He's loud where she's quiet, calm where she's anxious, and somehow, from the very beginning, being around him just... makes things easier. What starts as a random roommate situation turns into late-night talks, shared routines, and a friendship neither of them expected-but both of them start to depend on. Before long, they're inseparable. And everyone notices. Between chaotic drop-ins from friends, constant teasing, and the growing feeling that there's something more between them, Freya and Malachi find themselves stuck in a space that isn't quite just friendship anymore-but isn't anything else yet, either. But behind Malachi's easy smile is something he doesn't let anyone see. Something he hides from everyone... except Freya. And as she becomes the one person he trusts in his worst moments, the line between "best friend" and "something more" starts to blur in ways neither of them know how to handle. Because when someone becomes your calm... losing them isn't an option.

Freya Skye - Sharp-tongued, fiercely independent, and impossible to intimidate, Freya hides a guarded heart behind cold stares and sarcastic remarks. She's the kind of person who would rather start an argument than admit she cares, but beneath the walls she built is someone deeply loyal and secretly terrified of being vulnerable. Malachi Barton - Calm, unreadable, and dangerously charming, Malachi has a talent for getting under people's skin - especially Freya's. He carries confidence like armor and always seems one step ahead, but behind his composed exterior are old scars, buried anger, and feelings he swore he'd never let become real. Together - Every conversation turns into a battle, every glance feels loaded, and neither of them knows when hatred started becoming something far more dangerous. The slow burn between Freya Skye and Malachi Barton is built on tension, rivalry, and the kind of chemistry that refuses to stay buried.

Fralachi one-shots cause I think I have genuinely read all of the ones available..

The Skye and Barton family have known each other for years, but Freya left for two years to go live with her dad who still lives in London for his job, when Freya comes back they barely recognised her, she's changed, when Freya and Malachi, Josh were younger Freya had a crush on Malachi but she never told him, she came back and she always wanted Malachi to notice her and he finally has, but one rule and the only rule Josh has set for the boys is don't date Freya or your dead. Will Malachi stick to this rule or break it? Let's see
