About Me:

Hey girls.  I write stories here on witty.  My friends and family don't know that I write cheesy love stories.  I have another account for all my quotes. 

I'm in high school.  I enjoy all types of music, long showers, the beach,  I'm left-handed, and I dream that one day people can accept me for who I am.

Thanks girls!

Chapter 12

I looked outside the window from my bedroom.
 It had rained last night, so now everything is wet.  I grabbed a light jacket and walked on down to the country club where I worked as a lifeguard.  I'm probably going to have to work in the indoor pool today,
because nobody would want to be outside swimming on a day like this.
... 
On my lunch break, I got a call from an unknown number.  
I pick it up.  "Hello, Miss Faith Casway.  I'm from the University of London.  I would like to inform you that you have been accepted.  
We understand if you are still unsure about your decision on what college you are planning on going to yet, but I think you would fit in well here in London.  Please think about this.  Orintation starts September 2nd.  We would love to see you there."  
I put down my phone with only one thought in my head.
"What about Blaise?"




I know it's a super short chapter.
The next one will be longer, I promise. 
I hope to post again soon in the next couple of days, if I can.

Chapter 11
Faith's P.O.V.

I walked down to the corner store on the way to the beach to buy a bag of chips for the barbeque the whole gang was having tonight. 
In the store, I see Alexa buying drinks for the dinner, as well. 
I wave over to her and we walk down to the beach together. 
As we were walking she says, "So I hear you and Blaise have some chemistry going on?"  I smiled and replied, "Well I thought we did, but he was just leading me on.  Did you know he has a girlfriend back in Florida?" 
She stopped walking and asked, "Are you talking about Rachel?  They broke up months ago.  She was cheating on him.  He's been single for a while now." 
My eyes widened in surprise. 
And I was just about to reply when I realized we were already at the beach,
and Katie was running up to us in her new orange bikini. 
...
The next day I walked over to Blaise's house. 
I rang the doorbell and his mom answered the door. 
"Hi!  Is Blaise home right now?"  I asked. 
"Oh yes sweetie, he's just upstairs in his room.  You can go see him if you like." 
"Thanks," I replied, and walked upstairs. 
I opened up the door to find Blaise laying on his bed, headphones in his ears, listening to music.  He looked over at the door when he heard me come in and sat up.  He took out his earphones and said,
"Hey Faith!  What's up?"
  "Blaise do you have a girlfriend?"  I asked.  He paused for a moment.  He wasn't smiling anymore.
  After a minute he said, "I used to have a girlfriend named Rachel.
Her family moved down to Florida, and I heard she was cheating on me and broke it off. 
But that was months ago, Faith.  The truth is, I really like you."
I took a moment to process all of this.  Then finally, I said"I like you too Blaise." 
Then he leaned over and before I had any time to react. 
He kissed me.

Chapter 10
Tommy's P.O.V.
I walked down to the beach, brushing my black messy hair away from my face. 
I saw Blaise down by the water looking off in the distance, obviously lost in thought. 
When I got down there I said, "Hey man, what's up?" 
Blaise turned around. 
You could tell he was upset about something. 
"Faith never showed up, when I invited her to see the dolphins. 
I was thinking about asking her out, today.  I wonder why she didn't show." 
He paused for a moment, then continued on saying,
"You my best man, Tommy.  Do you think I did something wrong?" 
I pat his back.  "I would just forget about her if I were you.  I heard she's looking into a University in London, and you and I both know how you are with long-distance relationships." 
"But that's the problem," Blaise answered, "I can't forget about her.  She's all I ever think about anymore." 
I started getting angry.  Every single girl that I've ever liked, including Faith, always ends up with Blaise. 
Well this time, I'm getting the girl. 
He is not going to steal Faith away from me.  "Didn't you feel the same way about Rachel before she moved down to Florida?"  I asked. 
"No," Blaise responded quickly, "Rachel only liked me for my looks anyways.  She cheated on me in Florida, too.  But Faith, she's different.  She actually listens to me.  And whenever she smiles, her eyes twinkle just a little. 
She's not fake.  She's real."

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. 
Things have been pretty hectic, lately.

Chapter 9
Faith's P.O.V.

I had today off from working at the countryclub. 
Katie invited the whole gang down to the beach for dinner.  We always did that on Friday nights. 
Alexa works at the mall, and Katie works at the icecream parlor, downtown. 
Friday was the only day we all had off.  Sometimes during our lunch breaks,
we'd meet the guys at the icecream parlor,
and Katie would get us free icecream. 
Both Blaise and Tommy have been showing me around, over the last couple of weeks. 
Today, I was going to see Blaise because he said he would take me swimming with the dolphins. 
I was just about to leave,
when I heard a knock on the door.  I went to go get it, and I opened the front door to see Tommy. 
I smiled, "Hey!"  "Hey, Faith!"  he replied. 
He looked down and saw that I had my shoes on. 
"Where you goin'?" he asked.  "Oh Blaise invited me to go swim with the dolphins he works with.  How cool is that?!" 
Tommy paused for a second.  Then after a minute he said,
"I've seen the way you look at Blaise.  Do you like him?" 
That caught me by surprise. 
"Kinda, I guess.  Why do you ask?" 
Tommy patted my shoulder. 
"Faith, I should tell you something."  He stepped inside and led me to a chair. 
I sat down confused, and said, "What's wrong?". 
He replied, "I know it may seem that Blaise likes you, but he's just leading you on.  You can't go out with him." 
"Oh, why not?" I asked.  This wasn't making any sense.  "I thought he liked me," I said.  Tommy sighed and replied, 
"Because he has a girlfriend."


Sorry, it's been a while since I've posted. 
I'll try and have Chapter 10 up as soon as I can
Love you all:)

Chapter 8
I walked into the beautiful country club and went to the room where the interview was going to be held. 
I signed up to be a lifeguard for the summer at the local country club
and my interview was today. 
I've been starting to look for scholorships for colleges, as well.  Me and Blaise were talking more and more each day.  I think I might be starting to like him. 
But I've tried to keep those feelings at bay,
reminding myself why I'm here in South Carolina in the first place. 
To focus on my future. 
I thought the lifeguarding job would be a good reminder for me,
that this trip isn't all about fun. 
Katie took me shopping and to lunch with her and her friend Alexa, yesterday. 
Alexa was the girl tanning next to her at the beach that day. 
I got some calls already from colleges wanting me. 
One of the schools was all the way out in London!

Blaise's P.O.V.
The weeks were starting to fly by. 
Faith was the only person on my mind these days. 
Her wavy blonde hair, her soft blue eyes, and she had the cutest smile ever. 
We've been getting pretty close lately. 
Should I ask her out?  Does she like me too?

Tommy's P.O.V.
Over the last few weeks, Blaise and Faith seemed to be getting pretty close. 
I've shone her cool places on the beach,
and took her with everyone else to the best restaurants in town. 
But whenever Blaise is around,
she only seems to have eyes for him. 
And secretly, it kills me on the inside. 
But what can I do to get her to stop liking Blaise?

Chapter 7
After a while, Blaise stood up and said, "Race you to the ocean!" 
I stood up after him, took off my tee shirt and shorts that were over my blue bathing suit and said,
"It's so on."  He took off his shirt too and said, "Alright, 1...2..."
"Three!" I cut in and took off sprinting down the sand dune. 
I heard him say, "Hey!" and about five seconds later,
I could hear his breath right behind me. 
Finally, I got to the bottom and ran into the water. 
I heard Blaise splash into the water behind me and say, "Cheater!"  Then he splashed me. 
I splashed him back and soon we were both fighting in the water,
both with grins on our faces. 
We stopped eventually, both of our faces were pink and we were completely soaked.
I heard Katie yell,
"Hey you two lovebirds! We started the fire ane are making smores now if you want some!" 
We came out of the water laughing and joined the gang
in roasting marshmellows.


I know another short chapter :/  I'll have 8 though either later tonight or tomorrow

Chapter 6
The sun was setting, and the rest of the group was eating burgers from Tommy
who was manning the grill.  I wasn't all that hungry, though. 
So when no one was looking,
I put my earbuds in and walked down towards the sand dunes. 
I took off my flip flops and carried them as I walked up the steep sand dune.
When I got to the top,
I sat down and hugged my knees as I watched the sunset. 
When I was little me and my dog, Lucy, would go in our backyard and watch the sunset together side by side. 
Even though she's all the way in Pennsylvania,
it still felt right to keep the old routine going. 
And maybe she might be watching the sunset too,
and thinking about me just as I was thinking about her.
Just then I heard something,
I looked down the steep hill and saw Blaise walking up the dune,
a confused look on his face. 
When he got to the top he said,
"Hey whatcha doin' up here?  People were wondering where you went."
I pointed at the sunset painted across the sky,
and his jaw dropped in realization of how much better you can see the sky
without all the smoke of the grills, volleyball nets, and the beach umbrellas. 
I offered an earbud,
and he sat down and together we listened to music as we watched the sunset.

Chapter 5
I stared at my closet, my eyes searching for something to wear down at the beach.  Eventually, I just gave up and grabbed a pair of jean shorts and a tee shirt to go over my blue bathing suit. 
I grabbed a sweatshirt too, in case it got cold later that night at the bon fire. 
I ran down stairs and called to my dad,
"Hey I'll be down at the beach tonight!" 
I heard a faint 'Alright' coming from the basement
as I walked out the door.
When I got down to the beach,
I saw Katie waving at me and beaconing me to come over. 
She was laying on a towel tanning with another girl,
while the boys were playing frisbee. 
"Hey, Faith!  How's your head feelin'?" she asked. 
"Great!" I replied.  I saw Tommy jog over here and he said,
"Faith!  Do you wanna join us in our game of frisbee?" 
I smiled and replied, "No thanks, I think getting hit in the head with a volley ball is good enough for me.  I dont need another head injury from a frisbee too." 
Tommy laughed and said, "Alright.  We'll be setting up the grill in about an hour."

Everything was going great right now. 
If this keeps up, this summer will be awesome! 
But little did I know everything was about to get much more complicated.

Chapter 4

My jaw dropped in amazement
as I watched Blaise twirl his fingers and dolphins jumped up behind him. 
He brushed his shaggy brown hair away from his eyes,
as he searched the crowd for one lucky kid to come up and pet, Star, one of their dolphins. 
His eyes scanned the crowd, and then he saw me. 
He smiled at me, winked, and picked a little girl in the front row to come down with him to pet Star. 
I smiled to myself as he bent down, talking to the little girl. 

When the show was over,
Dad was planning on going to go get some food with me
from a really good restaurant he recommended. 
We were walking down the stands when Blaise comes over. 
“Hey, Faith!  How did you like the show?” 
“It was awesome!  I had never seen a dolphin show before,”
I replied.  Dad said, “Faith, I’ll be out in the car.” 
“Alright Dad, I’ll be out there in 5.”

“So how’s your head feeling?” Blaise asked. 
“Oh, it’s fine.  Don’t worry about it,” I replied. 
“I still want to make it up to you though.  Katie, Tommy,
and the rest of us are going down to the beach for dinner on the grill,
and then a bon fire later that night. 
You are more than welcome to join us.” 

I smiled.  “That would be awesome,” I said.




Sorry short Chapter :/
I'll post Chapter 5 in the next couple of days though

Chapter 3

I woke up the next morning to a massive headache,
but other than that my head injury was fine. 

I went downstairs to see if Dad had anything to eat in the kitchen. 
He wasn’t awake, so I found some cereal and milk, and started making a cup of coffee for Dad. 
I settled myself comfortably in one of the kitchen chairs,
and no more than five minutes later I hear Dad come downstairs. 
“Smells like coffee in here,” he said groggily, rubbing his eyes. 
I laughed, got up and poured him a cup. 
For about ten minutes we sat at the kitchen table together, until he finished his coffee. 
Then,
he grabbed my empty cereal bowl, spoon, and his coffee cup and put them away in the dishwasher. 
As he did this, he said, “I’m taking a couple weeks off of my job for the summer.”
“No Dad, you didn’t have to do that,” I argued back at him. 
But he just shook his head and replied, “No, my job as your tour guide to South Carolina is much more important.” 
We both laughed, and I went upstairs to get dressed. 

When I came back down, Dad was saying everything that he planned on showing me this week. 
Today he was going to take me to a dolphin show that will be at 2, today. 
I had never been to a dolphin show before.

When we got there, people were already up in the stands, ready to watch the show. 
When it finally started, a bunch of dolphin trainers wearing microphones came out. Then I heard a loud and familiar voice.  I looked up and saw Blaise,
with his toothy grin and gorgeous blue eyes, leading the show.


I hope to have Chapter 4 up either later tonight or tomorrow :)
