Count the Stars
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.
