Freya Skye has spent years loving her best friend. Unfortunately, Malachi Barton has spent those same years loving someone else. As long as Freya can remember, it's always been the three of them: quiet, overlooked Freya; her beautiful, popular best friend, Kylie Cantrall; and Malachi, the boy who never let anyone hurt her. The boy who always showed up. The boy she could never stop loving. The problem? Malachi only seems to have eyes for Kylie. After another year of watching him fall harder for her best friend, Freya decides this summer will be different. Armed with a glow-up plan, a bucket list, and a determination to finally become the kind of girl boys notice, she's ready to reinvent herself before junior year begins. But as the days grow longer and the lines between friendship and something more begin to blur, Freya starts to realize she may have been chasing the wrong thing all along. Because maybe she never needed to change herself. Maybe she only needed to see herself the way everyone else already did. A heartfelt story about first love, friendship, self-confidence, and finding yourself, Someday, Maybe is a summer romance for anyone who's ever felt invisible-and dared to hope that someday, maybe, things could change.

request by @Frizzlexggmu Freya Skye goes to Camp Golden Pines hoping to stay invisible. Malachi Barton makes that impossible - teasing her, chasing her, softening for her without even realizing it. He doesn't know what she's been through... but he's about to become the one person she finally trusts.

--- Freya Skye Jones moves to California with a secret no one knows-she has six months left to live. Determined to spend her remaining time chasing the life she always dreamed of, she finds comfort in the ocean, the sun, and the quiet beauty of starting over. What she doesn't expect is Malachi Barton. Drawn together by chance and held together by moments that feel too perfect to be temporary, Freya and Malachi fall into a love that feels infinite-until the truth threatens to tear it apart. As time slips away and hearts grow heavier, Malachi must face the cruel reality that some loves arrive not to last forever, but to change us forever. ---

𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇, Freya Skye Jones is a pro at playing the "perfect lead," but she wasn't prepared for the way Malachi's apology would feel like an invitation to burn her world down all over again. 𝐎𝐑 𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇, Malachi Barton plays a dangerous game, trying to win back the girl who was his entire world before he realized that some bridges don't just burn-they turn to ash.

Freya Skye never planned on returning to LA - not after everything she left behind. But four years later, fate pulls her back into the city she once called home... and dangerously close to the boy she once loved. Malachi Barton has built a new life under bright lights and louder headlines, but the past he never understood still shadows him. And when their paths cross again, one look is enough to unravel the silence between them. Some truths don't stay buried. Some goodbyes don't last. And some hearts stay tied, no matter how far they run.

Malachi barton, a famous actor who had everything he could ever want. Or did he. Malachi seemed like he had the perfect life. He had the perfect girl by his side, Malia. The "love" of his life, or was she, he had friends and fans who loved him. To everyone he was living the dream, little did they know he had his eyes on a certain blonde that could never quite leave his brain. She was what he always wanted, she spoke the truth, she was soft-spoken, and she wasn't perfect. She was herself, everything malia wasn't. Freya Jones, famous singer/actor who had people chanting her name, she was someone people looked up to, someone people loved more then they loved themselves. She had it all the looks, the smarts, and the personality. She was kind, the person you go to when there's a problem. She wasn't the relationship type of person, she messed around when she needed something to take her mind off a certain boy.. A boy with brown hair, brown eyes, the guy everyone wanted, but the guy no one got. Except one, her "best friend" who took him from her. Who knows, will she get the guy? Will he get the girl?

Freya Skye x Malachi Barton | Freya Skye never got over him. Malachi Barton never got over her.

𝐈𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐘: Freya Skye Jones has made her previous burden an unexpected lover. Malachi Barton has gone from her irritating next door neighbor to an admirable boyfriend in just one summer. However, dating her previous best friend comes with its issues. Her popularity is rising exponentially, and his senior year is proving to be more stressful than expected. Balancing her relationship and perfection seems impossible, but no problem is too big when they have love...right?

At Westbridge High, everyone knows the golden boy. He's the star athlete, the teacher's favorite, the guy who smiles and the world bends around him. He's charming without trying, confident without apology, and used to winning - on the field, in class, and with people's hearts. Nobody says no to him. Nobody stays unimpressed for long. Until her. Freya moves through school like she doesn't care about the spotlight. She isn't interested in popularity, doesn't chase attention, and definitely doesn't fall for rehearsed smiles or practiced charm. Where everyone else sees perfection, she sees performance. And she refuses to clap for it. When the golden boy's ego takes a hit after she brushes him off more than once he makes a reckless bet with his friends he can make her fall for him It's supposed to be easy. Just another win. But what starts as a game becomes complicated when Freya refuses to play by anyone's rules. She challenges him, calls him out, and sees pieces of him no one else bothers to look for. For the first time, winning doesn't feel simple and losing doesn't feel like failure. As rumors spread, loyalties shift, and the line between fake and real starts to blur, Malachi questions if he is doing the right thing.
