The last thing Y/N expected was to run into Malachi Barton in the streets. Luckily, and ironically, her best friend had prepped her for this. She'd made Y/N choose a question to ask him and gave Y/N a question to ask for her. Prepared? Yes. Ready? Nope. “Okay, so apparently Malachi Barton is going to be in LA more often,” Gabby excitedly tells Y/N over FaceTime, her eyes sparkling with enthusiasm. “He’s going to be around for a while, so if you happen to run into him, you absolutely have to ask him my question.” Y/N, sitting comfortably in her room, playfully rolls her eyes at her friend’s eagerness. “Alright, Gabby, what’s the burning question you need answered?” she asks, a hint of amusement in her voice. Gabby grins widely, her excitement palpable even through the screen. “Would he ever date a fan?” she asks, her voice filled with curiosity and hope. Y/N chuckles, shaking her head at Gabby’s predictable interest. “Of course, that’s your question,” she retorts, teasingly. “What can I say? I have priorities,” Gabby replies with a shrug, clearly unfazed by Y/N’s playful jab. With Gabby’s question safely tucked away in her notes app for safekeeping, Y/N decides to wander the vibrant streets of LA. She doesn’t expect to need the question anytime soon, thinking it’s just a whimsical thought of Gabby’s.
