Y/n never liked crowds. She never liked talking. And trusting people? That was never an option. Whenever life gets too loud, she disappears into a dance studio or loses herself in the music she writes on her guitar—the only places where she can finally breathe. Living in New York with her older brother Walker means she’s constantly surrounded by his friends, especially the one person she can’t seem to avoid. Malachi Barton. He’s loud. She’s quiet. He’s everyone else’s favorite person. She’s convinced she’d only become someone else’s goodbye. But sometimes the people you’re most afraid of letting in end up becoming the reason you learn how to breathe again.
