Have a little Faith
Faith is persuaded to stay on Spring Break with the rest of the girls and Alien. Later she may regret her decision to stay.
A/N:Hey guys this is my first ever FanFiction, please be nice! I may change the story up a little bit later, like they may stay with Alien longer and they may take longer to go after Big Arch. But nevertheless, I hope you enjoy it!
Faith folded the remainder of her clothing into her suitcase. This was it, she was going back to her boring, mundane life. The fun was over, it had ended the day they had been arrested. What would her grandmother think if she found out? She'd be so disappointed with her. Faith couldn't bare to think of it, balling up the final T-shirt and throwing it into the suitcase. Faith was a tall, slim girl with beautifully bronzed skin and a luxurious black mane of hair that cascaded down her back. She sighed glancing at her reflection in the mirror unable to actually look her own self in the eye from disdain, instead catching sight of the silver cross necklace that hung around her neck. Faith had given into temptation, just as Pastor Jeff had warned. But just as he had promised The Lord had given her a way out. Alien. A drug dealer who had so generously bailed Faith and her friends; Cotty, Brit and Candy from jail for reasons unbeknown to her. Although it was nice of him, she could not help but questions what his true intentions were. After all what would someone like Alien want with four college girls? There was a light knock at the door, distracting her from her thoughts. Faith turned as she called.
"Come in!" As she did a girls head poked around the door. It was Cotty who entered the room slowly.
"Hey, Faith." She said, smiling softly at the younger girl. Faith had always been the baby of the group, the most naïve and innocent of the four girls, who had in some way been tainted by Candy and Brit's somewhat precarious lifestyle. While Cotty assumed the role as an older sister in Faith's life, taking it upon herself to protect Faith from the fallacious world that surrounded them. Faith was such an easy target, she was so virtuous, sweet and vulnerable. "I see you're all packed and ready to go." Cotty pointed out sadly, gesturing towards Faith's full suitcase. Faith nodded in response. There was a small silence between the two girls for a moment, both were unable to look at one another until Faith finally broke the awkward silence.
"Won't you please come back with me, Cotty?" She asked in a pleading voice while giving Cotty a sullen look.
"I actually came to ask you to stay." Cotty admitted finally. "Please stay, Faith. It wouldn't be the same without you."
"I can't. We came here to have fun but now it's not fun!We were bailed out of jail by some guy we don't even known and he expects us to trust him! How do you know he doesn't want something from us in return? We're in his debt and I don't want to be in that position." Faith exclaimed frantically.
"Exactly, he bailed us out of jail, Faith. We owe him that much." Cotty retorted. "The least we can do is trust him." Cotty stared intently at Faith as she said this and Faith let out a sigh.
"I don't know." She breathed dubiously.
"What if I could promise it'll be fun?" Cotty questioned. Faith shrugged still unsure.
"You can't promise that." Faith sighed finally as she perched herself on the edge of the motel bed. Cotty smiled taking a seat beside her friend, allowing Faith to subsequently rest her head on her shoulder.
"When have I ever not delivered on a promise?" Cotty asked rhetorically.
"Never..." Faith replied.
"Exactly!" Cotty smiled and laughed lightly, causing the younger girl to also smile. "So you'll stay?" She inquired. Faith sighed reluctantly, why was she so easily persuaded?
"As long as its just fun, as soon as things start getting weird I'm out!" Faith warned. Cotty said nothing for a while stroking Faith soft raven hair soothingly.
"I'm sure Brit, Candy and Alien will be so happy that you changed your mind." Cotty smiled, as Faith made herself more comfortable, laying her head in Cotty's lap. She glanced down at the younger girl who didn't say anything but closed her eyes in ultimate relaxation.
