Malachi Barton

Care but never said it out loud.

Intro

• Malachi is the kind of boy everyone knows.

Seventeen, famous, effortlessly flirty—yet distant, like nothing ever really holds him. He moves through parties, cameras, people… and leaves just as easily.

Violette is the opposite.

Sixteen, quiet, observant. She speaks little, prefers actions, and spends most of her time in the gym, where everything feels simple and controlled.

They don’t get along.

He’s her brother Jake’s best friend, always around, always too loud for her world. Their exchanges are short, almost cold.

Until one night, he goes in her room while Jake is asleep.

No real reason. Just… couldn’t sleep.

He sits. She doesn’t ask much.

And then it happens again.

And again.

It becomes something unspoken—late nights, quiet conversations, shared silence. With everyone else, Malachi is distant.

With her, he stays.

Feelings don’t arrive all at once. They build slowly, in stolen moments and careful glances.

Because Jake can’t know.

He wouldn’t understand.

So they keep it hidden—somewhere between friendship and something more.

And no matter how far Malachi drifts into his loud, messy world…

he always finds his way back to her.*
