I smiled at Faith as I sat her on the couch. It was then that I was able to actually look at her. Her hair was pulled back and I could see every inch of her face and neck. The top she wore was black and low on her shoulders, revealing even more of her creamy skin. Her tight jeans accentuated every curve and dip of her hips and legs.
She looked so fucking sexy and sweet that I almost scooped her up right then and took her to my room. Leaning over, I whispered in her ear.
“You look so sexy tonight.”
Her cheeks turned pink, and I softly kissed her lips before turning away from her.
I sang my heart out that night. Not once did I break eye contact as she watched from the couch. Every word I sang was for her, and when she smiled up at me and bobbed her head a little to the music, I felt accomplished. I’d always loved being a part of Original Malice, but something about singing with Faith as my audience made it feel real.
When practice was over, everyone left but Faith. I promised Amanda that I’d get her home safely, and I would, but I wanted to spend some alone time with her. It had been days since we’d seen each other and I since she’d already snuck out anyway, there was no need to waste a perfectly good night.
“You have a beautiful voice,” she said as I sat beside her on the couch and pulled her onto my lap.
She wrapped her arms around my neck and kissed my cheek. She felt so good against me, but I remained in control of myself. My body begged to be with her and my mind spun every time she moved in my lap.
“You have a beautiful everything,” I said as I captured her lips with mine.
I’d never been so happy in my life. I’d never made plans for the future. There was never a person in my life that was a constant. I wanted Faith to be that person. We were young, but it didn’t matter. She was the one I wanted and I wanted her until I was no more.
I made sure to take my time with every move I made. As badly as I wanted to have sex with Faith, I knew I needed to take it slow, and as unmanly as it sounded, I wasn’t really ready to take that step with her. It had to be perfect for her since she was so perfect.
An hour later, I took her home and walked her to her window. I kissed her again and helped her climb in. Her ass and hips felt amazing in my hands and I had to stop myself from squeezing and pulling her back out against me. She was going to be the death of me.
Once she was in, she turned around and smiled. “Same time tomorrow night?” she whispered.
I couldn’t help myself, I chuckled. My little angel was turning into a devil. I didn’t like the idea of her sneaking out, but I also didn’t want to deny her anything. If she wanted to see me, then she was going to get what she wanted.
“I’ll park at the stop sign. My car’s louder than Kevin’s. Goodnight, beautiful. I’ll see you tomorrow night.”
“Goodnight.”
She kissed me one last time and then slowly pushed her window closed.
I didn’t even remember the walk back to my car. She made me higher than any drug I’d ever taken and I was becoming addicted to her.

Faith
I was definitely in love. Period. There was no longer any doubt in my mind about that. Finn was it for me. There’d be no other. I understood that the minute I stepped foot into his garage and saw him standing there holding another girl against the wall.
The look on his face when he saw me could only be described as broken. Pain filled his eyes and his mouth fell open as if he’d just been told someone he loved dearly had died. The moment seemed to pause as everyone around us looked in and tried to figure out why the world felt like it was crumbling.
I didn’t care. I felt like a fool. Amanda knew everything about me and Finn, and she walked in on the same thing I did. I couldn’t get out of that garage fast enough. I didn’t want to cry like a big baby in from of a room full of strangers. I’d had enough humiliation.
When he stopped me and told me what had really been going on in the garage, I had no choice but to believe him. He’d never given me any reason not to trust him and the look in his eyes sealed the deal for me. He was just as heartbroken for me as I was for myself.
Thankfully, his ex left as soon as we went back inside. Maybe I was being a jealous freak, but I didn’t want her there. She looked like the complete opposite of me and I didn’t want Finn having any reminders of what he could have if he wasn’t stuck with a church girl who was clueless to anything sex related.
He spent the rest of that night singing sweetly to me in front of everyone, and once the garage cleared out and it was only us, he spent the rest of our time showing me and telling me how perfect he thought I was. It was amazing. He was amazing. I knew in the back of my mind that I was far from perfect, but he truly believed it and as long as he thought I was, then that’s all that mattered to me.
