"Hey! Yo look out!"

Bolton warned the girl on the bench in the park across the way as the football went flying towards her. The girl, with her headphones in, moved her head to the side for an inch just in time and avoided the football. She glanced up from her book to him and looked back down. Bolton tilted his head with a little smirk and jogged over to her as his cousin went to fetch the football "Nice one" he said. But she didn't look up, her music was blasting out. But she still saw him in the corner of her eye. Still didn't look up.

"Hello?"

The girl sighed and took her earphones out "What?"

If you hadn't of already guessed. The girl was Faith. Bolton gulped heavily and motioned his hand to the football "The way you missed the ball. It was impressive"

"Glad to hear it. Bye"

"What you reading? Twilight?" Bolton said with a laugh. Faith then looked at him with a slightly disgusted look on her face "Yes. Because every single teenage girl has the urge to read a cheesy fantasy story about a girl who is stupid enough to fall in love with a romanticized serial killer"

"Damn, my bad" he laughed "So what are you reading then?"

"To kill a mocking bird, if you must know"

Bolton smirked and nodded "Gotta read that in my English lesson"

"You can read" Faith raised her eyebrows and looked back down to the book. Bolton had never met someone like this before. Like ever. He sat down next to her on the bench, she glanced to him and muttered "What do you want screw-boy?"

"You seem interesting"

"Well that makes one of us"

Bolton looked over to the houses close to the park and nodded "You live over there?" Faith just made an 'mm-hm' noise without looking up and muttered again "For now"

"For now? You and your family move around a lot?"

"You could say that"

Bolton then looked back to Faith and then pointed to his cousin who was now doing kickups by himself "So you know my cuz?"

Faith looked up and laughed "Shawn? Yes, he's just as irritating as you. Maybe a little bit more" Bolton smirked and shook his head "You always this sharp to people"

"Most often, yes"

"You have an amazing accent" Bolton was trying his absolute best to be smooth. This girl was really not interested. And that makes him even more interested. Faith let out a dry laugh "Yeah. I haven't heard that one before"

"What's your name?"

Faith raised an eyebrow and gave a sarcastic smile with a fake happy tone "If I tell you will you go away?"

"I might" Bolton said with a laugh. She rubbed her lips together "Faith"

"Beautiful name" Bolton said with a bright smile.

"I'm so glad" she rolled her eyes and looked back to her book "I'm Bolton"

"Don't really care" Faith said as she made a clicking nose with her mouth, lightly shaking her head. Inside, she actually kind of liked him. He was trying. He wasn't the common 'wanna be gangster' even though he talks like that. But it wasn't in her nature to show that she liked someone.

"Bolt! Come on man we gotta go!"

Bolton stood up and turned back to Faith "Can I have your number"

"Nope" Sure she liked him. But he didn't strike her as the type she'd fall in love with. He laughed and glanced to Shawn "Alright...but not to sound all stalkerish but...I know where you live" he laughed. Faith smirked and nodded "Then I guess I'll be seeing you around then" she looked back down to her book and didn't say a word. Bolton licked his bottom lip and smiled at her. He nodded and took a few step backwards with his eyes still on her. He eventually turned away.

Two years later.

"I love you" Faith laughed in between her kissing with Bolton. They were in the living room at Faith's. Rachel was out with Eddie and Philip was...wherever Philip was. He was lay over her on the couch.

"I love you too"

"And listen" Faith muttered, lightly pushing Bolton up a little bit "I know, we said we'd wait after...well you know that I regretted doing it early...but I'm almost ready for this"

Bolton smirked and nodded "There's no rush"

She smiled and kissed his forehead, then his nose and then back to his lips. She was so completely in love with him. It was unbelievable. And it did scare her a little bit. Who knew that he'd figure out she goes to the same bench everyday to read her book to get away from the house she was living in. Shawn. That's how he knew. Bolton spent the entire summer at his cousins, when he usually was supposed to go home after two. But Faith made him stay. And she gave in and began to go out with him, then date him.

"You wanna watch a movie?" Bolton asked as he stood up to get a drink from the kitchen.

"Yeah"

Faith then heard keys in the front door jiggle. Her parents were home. Faith shot up and grabbed Bolton's shirt. "Bolt shirt! On!" she launched his shirt at him and then spun around as Rachel and Eddie walked through the door. Kissing.

"Mum. Dad. Ew" Faith started calling Eddie dad recently. It made sense. Faith found out Rachel was her mother at the same time Eddie was around. She had two parents within a day It wasn't an instant connection but they have a very strong relationship now. They both laughed. When Rachel saw Bolton putting his shirt on, Rachel pointed and said "Faith, I thought we talked about this"

Faith rolled her eyes and shrugged "Mum nothing went on...you know I'd tell you if we..." she then stopped herself as she saw how uncomfortable Eddie got and then put her hand on the back off her neck "Y'know"

"Yeah I do, told you she'd get embarrassed" she laughed as she glanced to Eddie.

"What?"

Eddie laughed and looked to Faith "Your mother was going to say that no matter what. We knew you'd invite Bolton whilst we were out. He could've been in a straight jacket and she still would have said it" He laughed some more as he kissed the top of Faith's head as he walked past her. Faith raised her eyebrows to Rachel and mumbled "You're so funny" she sarcastically muttered as she hugged her mother.

"I like to think so" Rachel laughed. She pushed the stands of blondie brown hair out of Faith's face and kissed her forehead "Did you have a good night, darling?"

Faith nodded and smiled "We were just about to watch a movie"

"Yeah. You guys wanna watch with us?" Bolton asked as he poured them all a cup of tea. Eddie looked to Rachel "Rach? Fancy a film? You said you were pretty tired?"

Rachel looked from Eddie to Faith. She had been really busy with work lately and hardly had anytime with her all week. It was Saturday night. Sleep could wait. She wanted to spend time with her daughter "A film sounds better right now...as long as it's not one of those gory, torture type films"

"Are those still a thing?" Faith laughed. She never liked those films. She loved, action, romance and nearly every old films to date. There are two men in her life that she loved just as much as Bolton. Elvis Presley and James Dean. Both dreamy as hell. Both rebels. Both dead but that's besides the point. Faith loves Elvis's film but Bolton is already making his way through his music and films. And Faith was in the mood for some James.

"You guys seen Rebel Without a Cause?"

"Yes! But I'll watch it again and again and again" Eddie got all excited and literally ran in the living room. Rachel laughed and kissed Faith's cheek as they walked into the living room.

Film night as family was fun. It felt rewarding to Rachel.
